Michael learns to rock - "The actor"

I was thinking of this song when i read Priceless` 90s thread.

I`m sure this song is considered BAD, but i like it!! music

I love this song. Its an honest song that i could directly relate to, and still do in some way. The whole album is really good. Iam pretty sure some of the production is by Stevie Barri, who has been around for decades as a producer/songwriter.


I've only got their first album, what are their other albums like?

I`m glad to see i`m not the only one who appreciate this gem highfive

I haven`t got any of their albums. I bought a 90s music compilation about 5 years ago, and this was one of the songs i liked best.

I have their self titled debut from 1991



I was right. Veterans Steve Barri and Tony Peluso handle some of the production it seems, which is why the album is pretty good in places I reckon.

The uptempo "blue angel" is a great track, whilst "messages" is lovely aswell. "Crazy dream" is similer sounding to "the actor" if i can remember, and that and the other highlight, "gone after midnight" are worth getting the album for.
