What do you think there are the five best BB songs in the 80s?
I'd say:
- Somewhere Near Japan ( I don't understand why don't have been included in MIC)
- Goin' On
- Getcha Back
- Where I Belong
- I'm So Lonely

For me, I would replace I'm So Lonely with It's Gettin' Late. Other than that I agree with you. Vocally, I think Kokomo and Chasin' The Sky rank up there, as well. |

I like Livin' With A Heartache, but it is a bit long and really could have used a bridge in the middle. I feel that way about Mona and The Night Was So Young, as well. |
