A favorite album of 1981 and arguably his best.

Headed home from work jam: aside from my junior year in high school I’m reminded of the “Guitar Hero” scene in “Couples Retreat.”

Watching “Fast Times At Ridgemont High” tonight triggered one of my favorite ear worms from the early 80s.

#DontSayNoLife isn't easy from the singular side
Down in the hole some emotions are hard to hide
It's your decision, it's the chance that you take
It's on your head, it's a habit that's hard to break
Do you need a friend, would you tell no lies
Would you take me in, are you lonely In The Dark -
Monday nighty night jam from what I consider to be his best album.

"The Stroke" is a song written and recorded by American rock artist #BillySquier. It was released in 1981 as the debut single from his 3× platinum album #DontSayNo. This was Squier's first single to chart (although "In the Dark" charted first at Album Rock), peaking at No. 17 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and the #CashBox Top 100. It was a much bigger hit on rock radio, hitting No. 3 on the #TopTracks chart.

This album and “Making Movies” from Dire Straits - and steady doses of Led Zeppelin, of course - helped me get through my junior year in high school.

#DontSayNoWe live in confusion times
My world is a vice
Nobody gets out alive
But you can break through the ice
Don't Say No
My wounds are the open kind
I bleed every day
I pray for a change of mind
You can take me away
Don't Say No -
I have visions of the “Guitar Hero” scene in the flick “Couples Retreat.”

#AirGuitarLonely Is The Night
When you find yourself alone
Your demons come to light and your mind is not your own
Lonely Is The Night
When there's no one left to call
You feel the time is right--(say) the writin's on the wall -
Back on deck after a long weekend that included my dad’s funeral. Tomorrow, it’s back to “the grind” but for now, it’s simply too nice to be indoors.

#DontSayNoYou never listen to the voices inside
They fill your ears as you run to a place to hide
You're never sure if the illusion is real
You pinch yourself but the memories are all you feel
Can you break away from your alibis?
Can you make a play?
Will you meet me In The Dark?

As the sun sets (and before I get another cup of tea), the title track from what is, as far as I’m concerned, one of the better rock albums from the early 1980s.

A Monday road jam: always thought it kicked ass from the very first time I heard it on the radio as a high school junior about this time 43 years ago.

Might just be Billy’s best. I know it’s been a favorite of mine since my high school days. Just a few years ago. 😉

You take no interest, no opinions to dear
You make the rounds and you try to be so sincere
You guard your hopes and you pocket your dreams
You'd trade it all to avoid an unpleasant sceneCan you face the fire when you see me there?
Can you feel the fire
Will you love me In The Dark -
The title track on deck from what I believe is Billy’s best album.

I live on the borderline
You come from the void
I beg you to cross the line
You take good care of your boy

Reminds me of my junior year in high school (80-81), playing Guitar Hero when off duty at GTMO (2008) and the Guitar Hero scene from “Couples Retreat.” Yeah. I’m a weirdo.
