Vote for your favorite ROMANTICS tune - there are just two to choose from
Vote for your favorite ROMANTICS song.........whether it be the chart-favorite, Talking In Your Sleep (#4 ); or the stadium anthem, What I Like About You (#25).
Personally, I sincerely despise What I Like About You, but still sing along with Talking In Your Sleep. The lyrics might be cheesy, but I can't resist the riffs in the song. Cannot.

After seeing the trailer for Marmaduke, I never want to hear "What I Like About You" again.

I wouldn't say I was a 'die-hard', but I definitely fall into the latter category, and even I'd agree with you on that call. I went with "Talking In Your Sleep", as it's also on my favorite Romantics album, and isn't as played out as "What I Like About You".

I remembered they had one other song that I liked, and after some searching I found it:

Randy Castillo looked a lot like the Romantics drummer.

I picked WILAY, though if I could've, I'd have chosen "When I Look In Your Eyes" from the same album.

I always enjoyed Talking In Your Sleep more than that other one. If you had listed Rock You Up it might have been closer for me.

I vote for One in a Million. Talking in Your Sleep was good too; What I Like About You was just OK and pretty much ignored when it was new, but since it's been used in a billion movie trailers it's on my list of songs I never want to hear again.

What I Like About You
Reminds me of slinging back cheap rot-gut booze at various college bars back in the early 1980s.
There was one place that had "8 for 1" drink specials.

The college bar/clubs I went to back then played both "What I like about you" & "She's got everything". The Romantics version of the old Kinks song. Songs 6 & 7, both under 3 minutes.
Does anyone else remember this?
I'd also vote "One in a million" over "Talking in your sleep".

Can we vote on the hair? :lol
Also, is it just me, or is light shining through venetian blinds an '80's cliche?
