I've never seen this video before, and didn't know it existed. I just remember seeing the Stoney Jackson one all the time. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

LOL at first I just remembered the Stoney one from "Streets of Fire" too. Then I discovered this one with Dan Hartman actually in it. The girl is Joyce Hyser from that '80s comedy "Just One of the Guys". "Get up off that grey line" | |

'Streets of Fire' was pretty forgettable film but this song will be remembered from it. I must confess I never knew Dan Hartman was a white guy. Also he recorded a disco song 'Instant Replay' I didnt know it was the same guy. He sounds more soulful on this track. | |

First time I'm seeing this version, too. I often wondered why they had Jackson lip-synching to Dan's vocal in the other video. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

It was from a movie. He was playing the lead singer of a doo wop group. But, it was used as the music video too. I think many people thought the group really sang the song.

Similar to Eddie & The Cruisers really being John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band.
