if you can watch and listen to this song and not tap your foot or sway there's not much hope for ya.....
I can kick 60 from here.
:-\
I didn’t like that one.
:D
“‘I Got a Line on You’ was a truly an under rated kick-ass rocker imho.”
Canada’s Kim Mitchell has a rousing version of I Got A Line On You.
The best album they ever put out was But The Little Girls Understand
Not a bad song on it.

Paper Lace will always be the “Billy” for me.
OMG, I had it on a 45.
Yeep.
Wax cylinders?
:D
Marylin Manson did “Sweet Dreams [Are Made Of This”] like I always thought it should be done, even though I loved the Eurythmics.
The very first days of MTV, when they actually did play music.
When we were kids we had Paper Lace Night Chicago Died and Bo Donaldson Billy.
We loved that stuff.
Never knew of Paper Lace doing Billy.
It had no radio AirPlay in the U.S.
omg...Twilight Zone was probably a bigger hit than Radar Love...i blew this..
My favorite....Bo Donaldson and the Haywoods....Who Do You Think You Are....on the radio all the time as a kid in 74....
I didn’t hear them, but radio music was pretty limited back then.
Weird.
I was in the middle of nowhere and barely had AM reception and that only if I was sitting in the exact right part of the backyard.
Geesh...I remember the FM station of my youth [and still] but who the AM station was, no idea.
