Generation X recorded a demo of Dancing with Myself in early 1977 which is great. Derwood does some ripping guitar at the end.

Lionel Richie - running with the night (1983)

This is quiet edgy for Lionel. Nice bass groove & psycho keyboard stabs.

The electric guitar solo on "Running with the Night" was played by Steve Lukather, of the rock band Toto. Lukather sat down in the studio and the engineer played the basic tracks of the song, for him to hear for the first time, so he could plan his part. As the music played, he jammed along on his instrument. At the conclusion of the tune, he said to the engineer, "Okay, I'm ready for a take." The producer replied, "That was a take."

That was the only Madonna hit I like.

This might be more for 'songs w/ weird videos you never saw' or 'songs you forgot you loved' threads.

You can tell this is from 1983 because it was a warm summer. 1984, '85 and '86 were all miserably cold.
