Since Sports is his most popular album (from 1983/84), as well as its poster being in Marty's room, I wanted to do a poll on your most/least favorite songs from it. FYI, if any of y'all haven't heard it, the music really does sound like POL & BIT. :D In fact, here's a short breakdown of each song.

1. Heart of Rock & Roll - Medium paced pop/classic rock-ish hit, with the famous roll call of cities.

2. Heart & Soul - 80's arena rock sounding hit. Keyboard-y, slightly hard rocking and fun. Sorta like Van Halen lite.

3. Bad is Bad - Bluesier mid tempo-slow tune.

4. I Want A New Drug - A little heavier and more rocking, with a long guitar solo, almost sounding like '70s rock.

5. Walking on a Thin Line - Bass heavy medium tempo, also sorta classic rock-y pop.

6. Finally Found A Home - Like the last song, but more rocking. Marty should've sung this at some time. Just hear the lyrics, and you'll know. hehe. :lol:

7. If This is it - The biggest hit. Melodic, fun sounding semi ballad.

8. You Crack Me Up - Similar to 5 & 6, but a little faster and angrier.

9. Honky Tonk Blues - Uptempo Hank Williams cover, which is okay, but too country for a rock album.

Personally, I'd pick #2 as my fave, and #9 as my least.

As you know, I'm not a big rock fan, but Huey Lewis is an exception. I will have to go with the Heart of Rock-and-Roll. That song is great, even though I don't like rock all that much.

Heh, and even though I'm not into rap much, I like a few Beastie Boys & Hammer songs. :)

Yeah Heart of R&R is cool - even if Blender Magazine recently put it on their 50 worst songs of all time. :angry:

Actually, they put it in their "most annoyinng" songs of all time meaning that people have over played it. After awhile, any song can get annoying!

^Not true. I can listen to Stone Cold Steve Austin's theme all day long and it won't get annoying. Well, maybe that's just because I'm Stone Cold's #1 fan.
Well anyway, I don't think the Heart of RnR is annoying, but who am i to judge?

the only songs that i know by huey lewis are if this is it..stuck with you...heart of rock and roll...and obvously power of love and back in time

I like I Want A New Drug least because of the name.

Have you even ever head the actual song? YOu shouldn't dislike a song just because of its name. "Don't judge a book by its cover". And the word "drug" isn't always used in a negative context. <_<

Anyway, from Sports the only songs I have heard from it are Heart of Rock & Roll, I want a New Drug, and If this is it.

So my favorite that i have heard is I Want a New Drug.

Have fun. :happydoc:

Hope a small bump of this topic is OK. :)

My favourite song from Sports is "Walking On A Thin Line", closely followed by "Heart and Soul". I find both of them very catchy, and they're very good tunes. I often find myself humming them whilst pushing trolleys around at work! :rolleyes:

My least favourite is "Bad Is Bad" - but merely because I like the other songs on the album better, not because it is a bad song.

I had a hard time picking a favourite as I love them all really on this album. However, "Finally Found A Home" will always have a special place in my heart because I do love the lyrics. They mean a lot to me. The instrumental is great too - catchy!
I'll have to pick "Bad is Bad" as the least favourite though as, even though I like it, I don't love it, unlike most of the other songs on this album.
