x1yyz Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 This thread caused Steve Perry to be in my dream last night. He was sitting next to me and put his hand on my shoulder. Maybe he was going to shake you and wake you up! On a more serious note, I was thinking how much airplay Journey got on the FM stations back then and how little Rush got. Can't help but wonder if maybe some payola was going on. Speaking of payola, does anyone here remember The Payolas, another Canadian band? :musicnote: You've got the eyes of a stranger :musicnote: :) I remember that! If I recall correctly, it was their only hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I recall correctly, it was their only hit. You are correct. It was. But they were quite the talented group - did everything themselves - including producing their own album. I think the song came out late 1982 or early 1983. Edited May 17, 2014 by Lorraine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony R Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Rush is in the lead, but not by much. Gonna be a dog fight. Wow, Rush was ahead 80% - 20% last time I looked. I also did not realize you are allowed to vote multiple times. (Once every hour). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circumstantial tree Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 yeah, that's what I thought Tony R was getting at. Not accusing anyone here, but there are people who make Rush to be too much of a priority in their lives. I see posts on Facebook by certain friends and everything they post about is Rush and nothing else. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
