Friday Night Videos

It doesn't get any more obscure than this (well, I suppose it does, but not for major label releases off hit albums). Sheena Easton's album A Private Heaven spawned two top 10 hits with "Strut" and "Sugar Walls" and had several more potential hits as well. Inexplicably, EMI decided to release the worst song on the album, "Swear," as the third single. The only thing "Swear" had going for it was the fact it shamelessly ripped off the guitar riff from Michael Jackson's "Beat It," and even that it did badly. Needless to say, the album died after that. "Back In The City" was one of those possible singles. It was either the fourth and instantly forgotten release in the U.S., or only made it as a single in Europe. Either way, I didn't discover this video until just a couple of years ago, through the magic of YouTube. Enjoy.
