Saaara, oooh Sara . . storms are brewing in your eyes.

Sara, oooh Sara . . . no time is a good time for goodbyes.

Starship has to have Sara in the mix.

I also love Sister Christian and will never change the station when that song comes on.

Did you miss the part about it being an '80s mix (All By Myself and Fool If You Think It's Over are mid-late '70s)? Or that it be "Easy Listening" (I Can Dream About You? WTF)?

Add this one, very 80s and very easy listening: If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful -- Whitney Houston and Jermaine Jackson.

Daliman, if I remember correctly Jim Steinman did in fact write those songs for Streets of Fire.

By the way, interesting trivia -- Fire, Inc., which did the two songs from Streets of Fire, included Rick Derringer, Davey Johnstone (Elton John's band), Roy Bittan, and Max Weinberg. The lead singer was Laurie Sargent, who was the lead singer of the group "Face to Face", which had a very minor hit called "10-9-8".
