Album Review: Loverboy - Get Lucky

Album Review

Band: Loverboy

Album: Get Lucky
Year: 1981

I totally dismissed Loverboy in the beginning. I liked their songs but the guy's butt on the album cover led me to believe that this music was just not aimed at me. I wonder if this cost them some fans. Then, in 1988, I saw them in concert with Dokken (who I was really there to see). They rocked the house, of course. I saw them as older and fatter men in 2015 and they still are killing it. Anyhoo, there is only one turd on this album.Their follow-up albums were all pretty much decent. thus, this album was clearly their high point.

When you have two five star songs and three other four star songs, you know we are talking about a classic.

Here is the list:

Working For The Weekend ★★★★★

This is their signature song that everyone knows.

When It's Over ★★★★
Jump ★★★
Gangs In The Street ★★★★

This song is great but the lyrics have to be a joke. Mike Reno was probably like: "Hey, guys. I am out of ideas for this kick ass song. Here are some complete garbage lyrics. Lets see if anyone notices."

Emotional ★

Mike Reno didn't sing this one and it shows.

Lucky Ones ★★★★
It's Your Life ★★
Watch Out ★★
Take Me To The Top ★★★★★

This might be their best song!

Male logic joke

*This is a story which is perfectly logical to all males:* A wife asks her husband, "Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get 6." A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk. The wife asks him, "Why the hell did you buy 6 cartons of milk?" He replied, "They had eggs."

Earth's wobble causes global warming

EARTH’S WOBBLE CAUSES GLOBAL WARNING, NOT CO2 EMISSIONS OR OCEAN CURRENTS, PER TEAM HEADED BY OSU RESEARCHER Digital Journal, “Debate Ends on Central Cause of Earth’s Cooling & Warming,” 8 Aug 2009; Space Daily, “Ice Ages Linked to Slight Shifts in Solar Radiation,” 24 Aug 2009; The Kiplinger Letter, “Climate Change Legislation, What it Means to Business,” 18 Aug 2009. As the carbon dioxide management bill - aka cap and trade - looms in Congress, a new study from Oregon State University emerges that ends the scientific debate on the central causes of ice ages and warming periods on Earth. Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore is fond of saying that the scientific debate on global warming is over - and while he may now be correct in the fact that a debate has come to an end, the central cause behind climate change does not support the carbon cap legislation that is being cobbled together by Mr. Gore and his Democratic allies in the U.S. Congress.
