[1990-1994 Best Songs]
Billboard Top 100 1990, #18
In all the time I spent writing songs, I only ever hoped to write one song as good as this one. Don't get me wrong, it's not the best song of all time, but it's just a really good song in every aspect. The lyrics are short, but still paints a picture; it has that bluesy sound that fits the subject of the song, and it has a catchy chorus with a powerful hook that anyone could sing along to.
What pushes this song from really good to one of the greats is Allannah Myles' throaty, powerful vocals. She has such great range and reminds me of one of those sexy lounge singers and a Joan Jett-like rocker chick all at the same time.
