Just sitting here exhaling with relief. I was never sure what sort of
reaction I'd get for copping to enjoying Honeymoon Suite stuff (On the Glass
Tiger scale, I figure that'd hit somewhere around 10 or so).
A particular favorite remains "What Does It Take," if only because it was
included on the soundtrack for "One Crazy Summer," one my favorite 80s
flicks from Savage Steve Holland (Who also did the awesome "Better Off
Dead," and the less-so "How I Got Into College."). It was also the first
song I learned how to play on piano, and thus sticks with me for sentimental
reasons.
I vividly remember the vid for HS's "Feel It Again," and still, to this day,
hold firm to the belief that they were the posessors of some of the most
awesome mullets of that era.
