Hmmmm…
This track used another band member for lead vocals, not the lead singer. No wonder he keeps ending up back in the band.
“He.” That rules out “These Dreams” by Heart. Complete and total long shot: “Starrider” by Foreigner?
Despite sounding live this angry song is never played live. It was all effects added to a studio recording.
Angry song that sounds live but isn’t played live. Well, “Bennie and the Jets” isn’t angry and “Run like Hell” gets plenty of concert exposure, so it’s not those. Does Weird Al ever do “Alimony” live?
This song has something in common with 3 of my favorite 100 movies of all time. It also has something in common with Romania.
As coincidence would have it, I recently contributed to a free concert by Sarah Vienna, an upcoming artist who also heads a relief ministry for Romanian orphans and abandoned children. I’m betting it’s not any of her tunes, but that’s my closest guess.
A rock and roll journalist co-wrote this track with a band member and a friend of the band. He also directed the video.
The closest I got is the Art of Noise which used to have a journalist as a member, but I don’t think he directed any of their videos.
