At the risk of sounding like Patrick Bateman from American Psycho lol, I wanted to see how many of y'all like Huey Lewis & The News? If so, what's your favorite song from the group?

Always liked them in the 80s. The Power of Love is great.

Awesome song. It's hard to pick a favorite, but I would say Heart and Soul is my favorite track, with I Want a New Drug a close second.

Stuck With You is my jam

Solid 80s band, Huey has great, soulful vocals and enjoy the doo-wop background. Huey's also a talented harp player as well.

Huey Lewis & The News
TRIVIA: in 1990 when Houston was getting set to open a new section of the beltway 8, they let HL&tN perform on the freeway as a free concert.
The next morning they had to shut the new highway down and hose it off because all of the beer spilled from the concert was making vehicles slide all over the place
thats my huey lewis CSB

I celebrate their entire catalog. Would probably go with Heart and Soul or Jacob's Ladder.

Heart and Soul
Walking on a Thin Line
Jacob's Ladder
They were a huge part of the background music of my teen years.

An awesome song by Huey that probably isn't very well known unless you're a Disney fan is his song "Once Upon a Time in New York City" from the 1988 Disney animated movie "Oliver and Company".
I loved this movie growing up and since the first time I heard this song way back, I have always thought it is an awesome song. The link to the song is below:

I guess I'd pick to listen to them over Journey.

I love Sooner Or Later When You Say I Love You off the first album

Solid 80s band
Kind of unusual that they started as a 6-piece before expanding to a 9-piece lineup for their middle aged, "State Fair" phase today. I like that they retain 4 of the original 6-piece lineup, losing only bassist Mario Cipollina in 1995 and guitarist Chris Hayes in the early aughts.
They also swapped out their horn section, but it's nice to see a band remain relatively intact for almost 40 years.

Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.

Attached with a better voice and more resonating tracks, that band defined an era of music and pop culture.
