Met Huey during his show at a casino on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. He was on a raised platform, and we thumped on the platform in time with the music of Walking on a Thin Line. It was dark in the theater, and Huey whispered who's doing that? We thought he was going to be angry, but he said to keep doing it, he thought it was great. Other people sitting around us stood up and joined in. Huey came and shook our hand after the song. What a wonderful person. I've loved him from the beginning. I am heartsick that he can't tour anymore. Some artists are a flash in the pan. Huey Lewis and the News are true legends. Sending you the Power of Love Huey!

@emu_warrior 3 месяца назад

Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. 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 humor. In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself. Hey, Paul!...

I'll never forget one of those shows when they played the boys are back in town Everyone was going nuts I also used to love when they would do the star-spangled banner at baseball games & other sporting events. One of the greatest bands of all time and their music is timeless. So happy to see them be recognized on this level.

In 2001, my new hubby and I were flying back from our honeymoon in Acapulco. The airplane was full in coach, but First Class had extra room. The flight attendant came over and asked if one of us would like to move to First Class. Hubby used to fly First and Business class for his job so I jumped up. Like I wouldn't. When I sat down in my new comfy seat I looked to my left and there was Huey, smiling. He introduced himself and then introduced the News. They were all so down to earth yet so cool. It was cool. The whole thing was cool. I thought I'd feel intimidated because they were famous. I was at first, but after a glass of champagne that went away. Huey introduced himself to my husband after landing and we talked a few minutes more before he had to go. Huey and the News will forever be...🎶 too hip to be square 🎶to us.

Honestly surprised that he is one of the few of the older musicians with serious hearing loss . With performing you’d think lots more of them would . Always enjoyed his music nice to see he’s popular again 😊

@heatherd4597 3 месяца назад

He has hearing loss because he has an autoimmune disease called Meniere's Disease, which is a disease of the inner ear. In addition to hearing loss, it causes chronic tinnitus(ringing) in the ears and debilitating vertigo. It's a horrible disease and is why he stopped performing.

Sounds great at 1 watt or 150 watt peaks. With this sound system I can say I love Rock and Roll to Huey and the rest of my 420 LPs, 1,500 CDs and other music media.

Huey Lewis has been fitted with the most progressive, technologically advanced, Starkey Australia hearing devices: His is the Livio Edge AI, that includes that circular device on Jimmy's desk ~ it's a mic. I am an athletic stage-4 cancer survivor (since May, 2021 ~ official no-evidence disease) and I've had 3 folks, thus far, that don't believe I had that diagnosis. (They never saw me during surgery chemos, and radiation...they see healthy me, only.) I, therefore, too, have an invisible disease. Happy that you typed about Huey's sufferings.

Great singer, great interviewee, and great lesson to protect your hearing. I still have most of mine, but I should have always had earplugs and/or headphones handy. There's a lot of loud stuff out there: Concerts and clubs, power tools (including the mundane things like vacuum cleaners), and believe it or not... babies! A crying baby is as louder than a motorcycle (and nearly as loud as a jet engine), and you have to be in close range. I didn't think to wear earplugs until my first kid was already over a year old, but it made a huge difference when I started using them. Saved my hearing, but it also changed my parenting style. It doesn't feel like a crisis when you block out the screaming. I mean, seriously kid. It's just a diaper change! Point is, there are a lot of good reasons to invest in some earplugs: Some in the short term, but especially when you're older and have saved your hearing to enjoy in your retirement.
