I fucking love "The Promise" by When in Rome. It is so unabashedly cheesy and so goddamn catchy.

When I was 10 I had to have a tooth drilled without anesthetic, so the front desk lady made a tape of songs she thought the kids were into and played it to distract me. I still have it somewhere, and also keep it as a playlist on Spotify.

Steppin’ Out - Joe Jackson
Never Surrender - Corey Hart
I Ain’t Missing You At All - John Waite
Glory of Love - Peter Cetera
Alone - Heart
Black Velvet - Alannah Myles
You’re the Inspiration - Chicago
Broken Wings - Mister Mister
Rosanna - Toto
You Make My Dreams Come True - Hall and Oates
Every Time You Go Away - Paul Young
