    Just Like Paradise...why is Dave such a fan of this cut and are you?Well well well...

    Why has he insisted on keeping this pop clunker in the setlist the last few years?

    Is it because it's his last solo hit('less ya count Slam Dunk...)?

    Does he think the tune is motorvatin'?

    Maybe I should just be happy he ain't playin' Stand Up...

    JLP

    Rockin' steady in her daddy's car
    She got the stereo with the big guitars
    And that's all right (all right)

    I got the itch and a restless soul
    She gone with the wind
    Gonna go for broke tonight
    And that's all night

    Girl, we've been meant for this
    Since we were born
    No problems now (the coast is clear)
    It's just the calm before the storm

    This must be just like livin' in paradise
    And I don't want to go home

    Suzy, Suzy, girl, for cryin' out loud
    You got all the right moves
    You make me eat my heart out
    Nightly and that's all right with me!

    No special favors make it out to cash
    We'll spend it later
    Got to make this romance last that's it, that's it

    Some folks say `easy come is easy go'
    (And some folks say)
    But one night ain't enough for me
    Girl, hang on tight and don't let go

    This must be just like livin' in paradise
    And I don't want to go home

        O I love the song man. It like heralds joy for me. Stop ripping on the pop-sensibilities of "Skyscraper" and being such a downer brother...

          I do like that song, but it hasn't aged that well.

          I can think of many songs from his solo career I'd rather hear him play.

          Great thread Loons...

            I always dug the tune. I would rather he drop Jump from his setlist.

              That track rocks. If you have a great system to play it on, the bass is killer.

                              I know it was a hit, but it was never one of my favorite solo tunes. I'd prefer he bring out "A Little Ain't Enough" or "Baby's On Fire."
                              I like to pay close attention to the things I'll forget later...
