Song of the Day - Huey Lewis and the News

I recently had another lunch interview with the company that I've chronicled recently here.  (This is the company where I've had multiple interviews and then they contacted my references.)  When I got in my car after the interview, the song that was playing on the radio.  I thought this was strange because it was the first song I heard after one of my other interviews with this company.



I had no idea that this song was a remake, which had been done a couple years earlier by a band called Exile.  They were a pop band that would later find more success as a country band.

This song is on the album Sports, which the main character from American Psycho praises as having "really come into their own, commercially and artistically."  There are a lot of hits from this album actually and I believe it was in the first set of CDs I ever ordered from BMG.  Did I just date myself there?  Can you imagine any kids today ordering CDs through BMG or Columbia House?
