Getcha back up off da wall andBefore Daft Punk was a thing, there was Kool and the Gang!
80s never die. Every song is inspired from the 80s.
"The Breakup Song (They Don't Write 'Em)" is a song written by Greg Kihn and Steve Wright and recorded
by the The Greg Kihn Band. It is the first single from the band's sixth studio album, RocKihnRoll (1981).
R.I.P. Greg Kihn, who passed died complications of Alzheimer's disease
in the San Francisco Bay Area, on August 13, 2024, at the age of 75.
In a 2022 interview, Kihn said: ‘Life has been very good to me. I’ve had a wonderful career,
several careers: radio, records, and literary. I feel like I’ve been blessed and I had a great life.
And if it all ended tomorrow, which I don’t think it will, I look back on it as a big fat plus.
I really feel like I’ve been very lucky.’
I was thinking of that band and song/LP (Songs from the Big Chair, from 1985) also, and read up on them a bit last nightI used to sing "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" at karaoke, though not very often
That LP was incredible! I love this song from it, as well:
Thank you Eli and I glad you have been enjoying the song! I was at my daughter's yesterday and I mentioned that Greg Kihn had passed away and then I played this song for her and her aunt and my daughter recognized it which was kind of cool because it was released 5 years before she was born but she sang along with the Ah ah Ah ah Ah ah part lol. Posted from my phone...I've been playing this song since yesterday. Thank you for sharing and thank you Greg for the music and may God have mercy on your soul.
Yes another wonderful song from them...Love these songs! What about SHOUT, SHOUT LET IT ALL OUT![]()
