Yes, friends, it's time once again for Sit and Spend. Let's gather around the old radio and listen to some sweller-rific new music.

Oh, the old Power ballad. I want to say that maybe for a little over a decade, that was kind of a necessity for any rock band with any album to at least put one power ballad or two on their

album. Probably you put out one and it would be your second single.

Let's tell you good it every single time you put out your rock album.

Yeah. The first single is whatever your banger is going to be right that's it.

And then the next the next song was gonna be the ballot but this is very important

because it's also the video game, video days, right?

So your banger, you're out there throwing the guitar around, lighting stuff on fire, and there's

chicks showing her boobs.

Well, hey, hey, when we put out the next one, we're sitting on stools we're playing a cus we're real serious

now and those same girls that we were exploiting before well now we're letting know we

love them yeah it was a guarantee for me I mean it's a good one not only it works but but as far as the

sales are concerned and the way that the song tracks now you could have a as you said a

great song but then you put out wind of change if you're the scorpions it becomes your all time

Number one hit believe it or not at least what would scorpions I go okay the country you're in something significance's happening. Exactly right.

I get that you got the other guys are doing this to get laid.

Correct.

Journey never had a number one hit, but the closest they got was for six weeks with open arms.

But everything they did is a power bathy kind.

But they started with Don't Stop Believing.

And that's the song that we know, and that's the song that people like to hear.

They don't play open arms, like they play Don't Stop Believing.
