I pulled out my tape of the first Toto album a few months ago, which I hadn't attempted listening to in over 10 years, and this one particular song did surprise me as being better than I remember. "Hold The Line" is cool too, although I didn't enjoy most of the rest.

same album, everybody please stand up and cheer right now for the pop-rock classic "i'll supply the love."

Good track on a good album. But their great great great album is the *second* one, *Hydra*. Trust me, and invest $1 in a copy sometime.

Cheryl Lynn is on this track, no?

Toto IV is nice... around the same time they were working on "Thriller."

This is almost Steely.

I prefer the version by Charme with Luther on vox, but the original is awesome too.

best part of this song has to be the very steely-esque "badabadabababa" breakdown.

the copy i have always made the needle skip around during this *crucial* moment in the track until i learned about the vinyl-healing wonders of windex + microfiber cloth
