Soundtrack, Part 8
By Mitch Berg
My first couple of weeks in the Twin Cities, I spent a lot of time in the car.
And Twin Cities radio stations spent a lot of time playing this song.
I’m not sure if it ever went to #1, but in a month of memorable music, it was perhaps the most chant-along-worthy thing on the radio…
…which led us to hours of racing around freeways or sitting in traffic, rocking back and forth and singing “Shout…Shout…””, and waiting impatiently for the reward of the fat, glorious guitar solo at the end.
I still feel like I”m in traffic, and don’t mind that much, when I hear this one. .

Yea, I got worn out on T f F, because they were playing the hell out of them on the 3 radio stations I listened to just after their first album came out.

Always loved, and have since learned and perform ‘Advice for the Young at Heart’. A rarer tune by them but had a lot of play on MTV back in the day.
