Name that early 80s video

This is a vague memory of an early 80s video. Cheap production, closeup of a scrawny barechested singer looks like he’s jogging through a lightning storm.

I can remember how that chorus went but don’t know how to represent it here in a way that wouldn’t look like gibberish. A few words I may (mis?)remember from the chorus are “eye of the storm”, “sleeping with the enemy” and punctuated at the end with “you! know!” and then a trailing “leave me a aloooone”. Definitely cheesy and self-indulgent, but I did say it was early 80s.

The guy looked a bit older and scrawny like Iggy Pop but his voice (as I hear it in my head) reminds me a bit of the lead singer of AC/DC.

That’s all I’ve got. Any ideas?

Thanks,

(After 30 seconds of Googling.)

Oh. There it is.

Wow, even cheesier than I remembered. The actual song doesn’t begin until 1:20 or so.

Oh well. In hopes of keeping this thread alive, are there any half-remembered old videos like like to search for or share?

Supertramp!

Nah, just Roger Hodgson (and I actually have this on vinyl).

Good lord. I loved this song when I was younger, but never saw the video. I think I need to wash the taste of cheddar out of my mouth now. :slight_smile:

How sad is it that I knew what song it was just from the description in the OP. I too owned it on vinyl.

Add me to the group who owned the album on vinyl…

This is ponderous, man. Really ponderous.
