"Sentimental Street" is Night Ranger's best song, hands down. Sorry "Sister Christian" fans. That said, the video doesn't really make a lick of sense. The conceit of being crashed/marooned on a desert island with a magic lantern (a nod to the album title "7 Wishes") is taken up in video for "Four in the Morning," but doesn't make much sense there, either. There's a lot of pseudo-nostalgia throughout the video about old girlfriends and the band struggling before finding success, but there's no real context and the vibe is all over the place. There's no narrative through line, but goodness, who needs consistency when the band is sporting hair like that? The video itself may not be peak 80s, but the coiffures are almost there.
