Penguin Cafe Orchestra Penguin Cafe Single Huey Lewis & The News Heart & Soul Mr. Lewis is a man of more depth than might be imagined, at first... (He can out-act Gwyneth Paltrow - you ever see Duets?) For Heart & Soul, he appears to have lifted the guitar-line from a song from chamber-avant-pop heros Penguin Cafe Orchestra's first album.

The 80s band prove they can still put on a show during a stop on their recent tour.
The Hold Steady es uno de esos grupos indie que suenan diferente a todo lo que se puede encontrar en el género. Naturales de Brooklyn, el famoso barrio de Nueva York, comenzaron su andadura en 2004, y desde entonces han publicado 5 discos de estudio, el último, Heaven Is Whenever , el año pasado. Su éxito les llevó a hacer un buen papel tanto en las listas americanas como en las europeas, destacando particularmente en Reino Unido, donde no es habitual encontrarse a grupos yanquis ya que son los locales los que dominan. 2011 ha visto [...]
The Hold Steady are the latest band to take part in A.V. Club 's ongoing ' Undercover ' series . The online series sees band's perform a cover of one track off a list of 25 fan chosen songs. In the latest installment The Hold Steady cover Huey Lewis and the News ' Back to the Future classic " The Power of Love ". Watch the cover above.
Photo by Philip Cosores "There might be a good song there, but you can't tell," says The Hold Steady frontman Craig Finn when discussing the obnoxious synth sounds in "The Power Of Love," originally performed by Huey Lewis And The News. So what do The Hold Steady do? They make it a little more intense, a little more creepy, and undoubtably better. Somehow, it sounds like a Hold Steady song. Check out the performance from AV Club Undercover below. The Hold Steady covers Huey [...]
As part of the A.V. Club's bands-covering-songs video series "A.V. Undercover," ecstatic rockers the Hold Steady recently stopped by the A.V. Club's Chicago office to cover " The Power Of Love, " the cheeseball-classic Huey Lewis and the News song from the Back To The Future soundtrack. It's a bit disappointing to learn, in the pre-song intro, that the members of the band were already too cool for this song in 1985, but they work it out anyway, and we should never, ever say no to dueling Hold Steady guitar solos. You don't need money or [...]

With nothing of use in my head, it's a good time to pull up a Billboard magazine Hot 100 chart from the early '80s - a period of my initial infatuation with music and radio - and check out the debut songs. So, here are the seven songs which were making their first appearance on the chart during this week in 1982... John Schneider - In The Driver's Seat from Quiet Man (debuted #90, peaked #72, 6 [...]

MP3: Huey Lewis and the News - Stuck With You Goddamn, it's summer about to be summertime and the heat's come at us like a tonne of bricks. Summertime as an adult can be tough at times—kept inside by your job when all you want to do is enjoy every day and barbecue with a couple of brewskis as the sun goes down, fireflies fluttering about the smoke for the fire, the condensation from your vessel evaporating into the humid air seamlessly, all the while blasting the best hits of yore. Enjoy.

When I was very young, I remember having an intensely heated argument with my mom over who sang, "Wild World." I insisted it was Mr. Big while she tried in vain to tell me it was a cover of a Cat Stevens song. Of course, she was right. But she should've known better than trying [...]
Recommended Show: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 2011 HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS @ GRAMERCY THEATRE 127 East 23rd Street New York, NY 10010 $49, 8PM The power of Huey Lewis and the News is a curious thing. The 80s band may be square, but somehow have made it hip to be so! Tonight, they play at the Gramercy Theatre. While you may not want to admit it, you'll be singing along to just about every single song. Henry Rollins @ [...]
You like Huey Lewis and The News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour. [...]
