    I don’t know how I didn’t know Gowan was Canadian! I have always loved his music.

    I’m not even from Toronto, lol

    Oh neat! Would hear this on the radio all the time on Capital FM in Edmonton before they dissolved. That radio station ruined a lot of rock for me with how often it would repeat tunes, but this was definitely one of the more enjoyable songs they’d play.

    Now leader singer of Styx as well. I hope I can see them before they all retire, missed seeing Gowan doing his solo material when I was younger…
