Its the song that hooked me in to be a fan watching it on HBO in February 1983. Something about the lyrics have that jr high puppy love/crush feeling where you have butterflies in your stomach. The studio version is almost doo wop. Its easy to sing along with and has a fairly good melody. Its in my top 10 favorite Chris songs of all time.

The promos from the HBO hooked me in so hard. I couldn't wait for that show to air.

OMG I knooowww! I begged my rich friend down the street to record it for me when it came on, because we didn't have HBO in my house!!!

Best songs on Mirage: Hold Me, Gypsy, Only Over You, That’s Alright

But we can all agree that Gypsy is one of the most beautiful songs ever created.

I was hypnotized and seduced at the same time. These millennials have no idea what we had to do. I remember setting my alarm at 2:45 am on a school night when I was in 7th grade to watch and tape record the show. We had no VCR. So I would hold the tape recorder up to the TV. It was the last night the show aired on HBO so I had to do something. Then I wrote a 3 page hand written letter to HBO demanding they bring the concert back (hey I was desperate). Sure enough they responded with an official typed letter thanking me for my letter and telling me how popular the concert was and that it was possible for it to re-air again someday. Those suckers never aired it again.
Today anyone can just go to youtube. No one understood our struggle to get this concert.

BTW, with the incredible Hold Me, how can you say Mirage is Chris's weakest album?

I couldn’t wait for Mirage to be released. It seemed like forever since Tusk(and it was only 3 years) After getting Lindsey and Stevie’s solo albums (which I loved) but I wanted all three voices together once again. Love in Store was the best way to open up the album. My only wish was that three voices were more prominent on more songs.
