RushFanForever Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) Huey Lewis and The News have released a new album Weather on February 14th. I had a listen to their new song 'Her Love Is Killin' Me', which is pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUjIg10axqQ Two years ago, Lewis was diagnosed with Meniere's disease, a disorder affecting the inner ear that can trigger spells of dizziness and hearing loss, which he's mentioned in this 2019 interview here. These two recent interviews from CBS Sunday Morning (great to know where the album cover for Sports is photographed at) and from Amoeba Records about 'what's in his musical shopping bag', are both cool to view. I should throw in about the 'one song that changed Lewis's life' mentioned . The one album Huey Lewis likes is Sinatra at the Sands, which was also a favorite of Neil Peart's mentioned in Traveling Music: The Soundtrack to My Life and Times.

invisible airwave Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 So sad to hear about his hearing loss. Sports is the first album I actually remember listening to when I was about 3 years old. My dad played it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 They were one of my favorite bands when I was a kid. I still enjoy the 80s stuff from time to time. Not sure I would give a new album much attention though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am racing out the door to get the new album NOW!!! I LOVE HUEY!!!! "FORE!" is my all time favorite record. "Jacob's Ladder" is just as good as the Rush track. Great song! It really sucks about his hearing loss, but I am hoping and my fingers are crossed that he can tour again. Is there any "News" about a 2020 tour? I remember watching the movie "Short Cuts" years ago and you can see Huey's weenie. No short cut there. He can complete with Tommy Lee. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushFanForever Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) The video for 'Her Love Is Killin' Me' features a cast of celebrity guests which includes Jimmy Kimmel, Brandon Flowers, Cedric the Entertainer, Jimmy Buffett, Michael Keaton, Yvette Nicole Brown, Rick Sutcliffe, Bruce Bochy, June Lockhart, Sal Iacono, Andy Garcia, Ray Benson, Chris Berman, Topher Grace, Brad Paisley, Sean Hayes, Joe Montana, Patrick Warburton, and Wendie Malick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_LH712wRlQ This is similar to what RUSH did with the R40 Live video for 'Roll The Bones' featuring Peter Dinklage, Chad Smith, Jay Baruchel, Les Claypool, Tom Morello, Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, and Trailer Park Boys actors John Paul Tremblay, Robb Wells, and Mike Smith.

Blue J Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Huey Lewis and the News we’re the first band I ever saw play live; I was 11 years old, summer of 1984, Sports tour. Loved it. They have always been a good live band. I agree that I might not give much attention to a new album from them at this stage...but then again, I might.

I had heard it was their sax player, at first, and not Huey. But who knows? Hopefully they may be able to do it again.

RushFanForever Posted February 24, 2020 Author Share Posted February 24, 2020 This clip below of Huey Lewis & the News from the Fore! tour is hilarious.

J2112YYZ Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 They were my favorite band as a kid. I still enjoy the 80s stuff from time to time. They were the first ever rock band I saw in an arena. Back in like 1987 or 88. I was too young to remember the exact year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
