If you include GYOW in the "pop stuff".. then include me. I wish he would have written more rocker songs.

Yes I do like Book of Love and several Lindsey Mirage songs specially Can't Go Back, a song played a lot in a (then) new peruvian radio in 1982. Despite being released as a single, I think only in UK, it has not included in any hits compilation

Stellar track! Love the retro vibe that comes through on alot of Lindsey's early 80s stuff. He and Dashut really compensated for Stevie's absence on this. Even she herself could have sworn she were on it. His best track on Mirage for sure, though I suspect he hold's a grudge on most of this album since the record company kind of pushed them back into more of a mainstream direction with their music. If I ever had a chance to meet Lindsey I would ask him what his thoughts are on his Mirage songs. Just something I've always wondered about.

I have always liked the book of love, I fell that it’s one of their under rated songs. I was kind of hoping they would play that and Seven Wonders on this tour.

I have always loved this track. It's very intense and I can almost see in his head while he is singing it. The backing vocals on Mirage are stellar.
