Favorite Huey Lewis Song? - Blu-ray Forum

I'm what you might call a "moderate fan" of '80s music, and in my opinion, Huey Lewis is one of the best. What are your favorite songs from him, and why?

I voted Power of Love but my favorite isn't on the list. I always liked Jacob's Ladder.

I want a new drug was my pick. I picked it mostly because of the crazy video I remember as a teenager.

Ooh I was looking for Jacob's Ladder, a former #1 hit if I recall. Voted "other".

I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip to be Square", a song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

"Walking on a thin line" is by far the best song they ever did ( it was about Vietnam). It is on their best selling album "Sports". This album came out my senior year of High School and hearing anything off it takes me back.....
