It definitely was one of the better videos of the 1980s. The song is excellent and transformed to a great rocker live. However, a few tweaks could have made the song a bigger hit. It needs a second verse (after the chorus). I would not 80s synth it but it also needed some Christine charm in some keyboards. It has a touch of country almost. A bouncy keyboard rocker with a second verse could have made the song even better IMHO.
The song was blazing into the top 40 just as Christine's solo tour was in full swing. Being it was her second song in the set, let her make her solo statement early.
The live version is pretty much identical to the album. The song did not appear on the video album/concert. But sure enough the out take showed up on youtube.
