80's Flashback - Paul Young "Love Of The Common People"


Paul "Every Time You Go Away" Young was one of the very few concerts I attended during my time at Penn State.  This was mainly because not many touring national artists stopped to play in Happy Valley, and those that did tended to be rock acts (which I wasn't much interested in).  I remember Young's concert in Rec Hall as being delightful, and I think the song he opened with was my favorite Paul Young song of all time - Love of the Common People - from his first album No Parlez.  I had No Parlez on cassette and I wore that sucker OUT during college...

    I loved that song - especially that intro! The album was also good!

    I was a HUGE Paul Young fan. So was my dad...lol. We actually went to a concert together at Meriwether Post Pavilion back in the 80s sometime.

    I have "Every Time You Go Away" on my iPod. I really should invest in a DVD or MP3s of "No Parlez."
