Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?
Their early work was a little too New Wave for my taste. But then Sports came out in 1983, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that gives the songs a big boost.
He's been compared to Elvis Costello but I think Huey has a more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
Then in 1987 Huey released this, Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think I heir undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square," a song so catchy that most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of
trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

wow there are some strange celebrity choices in there...

bud bundy? kid actor from forest gump? norm? theo?

and how come huey lewis just used the paul mcartney vocals?

I've told the devil to stop washing my brain a million times now and he just don't listen! I guess I'm just destined to burn in hell for all eternity. Damn rock and roll music!

Huey Lewis is Satan?


Sure! Don't you remember the infamous songs:

The Heart of Lucifer (Is Still Beatin')
Do You Believe in Satan?
(I'll Eat Your) Heart and Soul
Sinin' For A Livin'
Doing It All For My Beelzebub

Huey Lewis is Satan?

Hey, why is there plastic everywhere in here?

I'm with EDD. It's a shame the joke was ruined by the submission title.

Funny as hell, though. LMFAHS! Can someone compile a list of every star who guested in the video? I wasn't really keeping track but here's who I recall: Brad Pitt, Cameron Diaz, Don Cheadle, Robin Williams, Huey Lewis, Harrison Ford, McLovin, Josh Groban. Who'd I miss?

Oh yeah, Macy Gray, Joan Jett, ...

Pretty *terrible, but upvote for Huey Lewis.

I always liked Sports by Huey Lewis & The News, catchy songs. I nearly wore out the tape.
