I remember Ann Landers lament that the video for The Cars “You Might Think” represented the nadir of popular music.

Peter Gabriel is very, very sexy to me. I'm in love with his creative mind (and he was cute AF in the '80s as well).

I liked how "Sledgehammer" was just one big sexual innuendo, even if it was about heteros.

objectively i think this song is a shite embarrassment but i really like it anyway. i just think it's disappointingly derivative and uncreative, it feels like he's trying to rehash big time because he doesn't have a better idea.

R10 - I agree. "Steam" feels like a B-side that tried to make it but . . . ran out of steam?

"Big Time" is one I [italic]still[/italic] listen to. It's so damn clever.

I think Steam came out in the 90s, but I agree, it’s a good song.
