80年代的美國樂壇，除了麥可傑克森以及一脫拉庫的英國新浪潮樂團之外，還有Huey
Lewis & The News這個團，他們就像是一支專門用搖滾樂把大家的心情逗得很樂，讓大家聽得很盡興的bar band，他們以一派輕鬆、樂逍遙的唱作風格征服老美，無論是球迷、勞工或是上班族，只要一聽到他們的歌，心情自然就會high起來，新一波的加州搖滾風暴就這樣迅速的感染了全世界。
Huey Lewis
& The News在1983-88年間，連續創造了12首打進流行單曲榜TOP 20的單曲，這其中包括了電影「回到未來」的主題曲The Power Of Love、Stuck With You、Jacob’s Ladder等3首冠軍曲，他們在1983年所發行的專輯「Sports」不僅奪下全美排行冠軍，更在榜上駐留超過3年，累積創造了700萬張的銷售。樂團同時坐擁葛萊美獎、全美音樂獎、30座的加州音樂獎以及17張白金或金唱片的銷售認證。
Huey Lewis & The News在1979年組團之初歸納了一些樂團的走向，樂團大致上是用當時錄音室所具備的鼓樂配器與電子合成器來把傳統的節奏藍調音樂與美國草根風格的音樂融合在一起玩，然後，隨著大夥的音樂功力越玩越精，樂團慢慢降低音樂技術層面的部份，轉而力求音樂的現場感覺，隨著歲月的沉澱，樂團逐漸從在錄音室創造現場演唱快感的樂團晉升成為一支能夠在錄音室精準的抓住現場神采的隊伍。樂團團長Huey Lewis有著一副能夠營造搖滾好心情的元氣嗓音，還有一個愛耍帥，搞幽默的性格，他的招牌行頭不外乎是穿件T恤，再套件休閒西裝，然後搭配牛仔褲，要不就是輕便的西裝上衣搭配牛仔褲，這一切的組合都只是想要把搖滾樂變得輕鬆、自在。

Huey Lewis Stuck with you LIVE
Huey Lewis & The News - Stuck With You
Stuck With You 轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
we've had some fun, and yes we've had our ups and downs
Been down that rocky road, but here we are, still around
We thought about someone else, but neither one took the bait
We thought about breaking up, but now we know it's much too late
We are bound by all the rest
Like the same phone number
All the same friends
And the same address
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with you
'cause i can see, (i can see) that you're happy to be stuck with me
We've had our doubts, we never took them seriously
And we've had our ins and outs, but that's the way it's supposed to be
We thought about giving up, but we could never stay away
Thought about breaking up, but now we know it's much too late
And it's no great mystery
If we change our minds
Eventually, it's back to you and me
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with you
'cause i can see, (i can see) that you're happy to be stuck with me
We are bound by all the rest
Like the same phone number
All the same friends
And the same address
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, it's true, (yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with you
'cause i can see, (i can see) that you're happy to be stuck with me
(yes it's true) i'm so happy to be stuck with you
I'm happy to be stuck with you
Happy to be stuck with you.
HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS - Perfect World
HUEY LEWIS & THE NEWS - Jacob's Ladder(with lyrics)
I met a fan dancer
Down in south side birmingham
She was running from a fat man
Selling salvation in his hand
Now he's trying to save me
We'll i'm doing alright the best that i can
Just another fallen angel
Trying to get through the night
Step by step, one by one, higher and higher
Step by step, rung by rung climbing jacob's ladder
Coming over the airwaves
The man says i'm overdue
Sing along, send some money
Join the chosen few
Well mister i'm not in a hurry
And i don't want to be like you
And all i want from tomorrow
Is to get it better than today
Step by step, one by one, higher and higher
Step by step, rung by rung climbing jacob's ladder
Huey Lewis & The News - Back inTime(1985)
Huey Lewis And The News - Heart And Soul(1983)
Two o'clock this morning
If she should come a calling
I couldn't dream of turning her away
And if it got hot and hectic
I know she'd be electric
I'd let her take her chances with me
You see, the gets what she wants
'cause she's heart and soul
She's hot and cold
She's got it all, hot loving every night
Can't you see her standing there
See how she looks, see how she cares
I let her steal the night away from me
Nine o'clock this morning
She left without a warning
I let her take advantage of me
You see, she got what she wanted
'cause she's heart and soul
She's hot and cold
She's got it all, hot loving every night
Huey Lewis and the News - Workin' for a livin' (1982)
Huey Lewis and the News - The heart of rock & roll (1985)
New york, new york, is everything they say
And no place that i'd rather be
Where else can you do a half a million things
All at a quarter to three
When they palt their music, ooh that modern music
They like it with a lot of style
But t's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really drives 'em wild
They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what i've seen i believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
La, hollywood, and the sunset strip
Is something everyone should see
Neon lights and the pretty pretty girls
All dressed so scantily
When they play their music
That hard rock music
They like it with a lot of flash
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really kicks 'em in the
They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what i've seen i believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
Dc, san antone and the liberty town, boston and baton rouge
Tulsa, austin, oklahoma city, seattle, san francisco, too
Everywhere there's music, real live music, bands with a million styles
But it's still that some old rock and roll music
That really drives 'em wild
They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what i've seen i believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
Huey Lewis and the News - I want a new drug (1985 live)
Huey Lewis and The News - If This Is It
I've been phoning night and morning
I heard you say "tell him i'm not home"
Now you're confessing, but i'm still guessing
I've been your fool for so so long
Girl don't lie, just to save my feelings
Girl don't cry, and tell me nothing's wrong
Girl don't try to make up phony reasons
I'd rather leave than never believe
If this is it
Please let me know
If this ain't love you'd better let me know
If this is it
I want to know
If this ain't love baby, just say so
You've been thinking
And i've been drinking
We both know that it's just not right
Now you're pretending
That it's not ending
You'll say anything to avoid a fight
Girl don't lie, and tell me that you need me
Girl don't cry, and tell me nothing's wrong
I'll be alrightone way or another
So let me go, or make we want to stay
If this is it
Please let me know
If this ain't love you'd better let me know
If this is it
I want to know
If this ain't love baby, just say so
