the age factor might also play a part... i'm only 30

if i want to get a friend of mine into Lightfoot, i wouldnt play them the softer stuff. w while back, i made a friend of mine listen to Salute. he loved Broken Dreams and said its a song that could have been used for an 80s sitcom theme, cause its so catchy. another friend of mine loved Keeping on yearning.

i love most of his ballads, but Beautiful will always take a back seat for me!
