Talking Ask Anybody live 1984

What a gem. What a treat. I always thought this would have made an amazing single.

Don't forget...great lyrics too.
Its a rarity for Christine. Its not a bubbly love song. Its written from the heart about a struggling love affair. Even though things sometimes are bad, she stays by his side while everyone else tells her.... move on. She sees the good side in him and that is why she loves him. Being in love with a bad boy and hoping he will change.
Seems to be about Dennis.

Its such a great written song. Its truly a lost gem of the 80's. Thankfully Chris did her solo album so we could all hear it.

I have ALWAYS LOVED "Ask Anybody", it's one of my favorite Christine songs! I saw her perform it live on June 11, 1984 at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Texas on her solo tour. It's even better live!

I saw it, too. It was such a rocking event.
