I don't know the song 'Cry Baby' by Dwight Twilley, but I know the song "Crybaby" by Utopia, maybe that is what you are thinking of?

Always thought "Say No" was their best song, but Columbia had tired of the group by the time it came out in early '85. Not that that excuses the idiots who compiled "Warm, in Your Coat." RV had, what, four singles? How hard would it be to include them all?

greekseed, I have that album on vinyl, but no way to rip it right now. I'll see if I can find that for you online. Although I like the Utopia track better. [:D]

Speaking of Utopia does anyone have "Feet Don't Fail Me Now". MTV used to play that video quite a bit with giant puppet worm kicking its feet around. Very catchy tune. Anyone remember that one?

That Utopia record was really good and it was simply called Utopia. It was basically their New Wave record. It also had another great song called Hammer In My Heart. I remember the whole record being really good. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00002 ... nce&n=5174

Utopia - Hammer In My Heart

To me it always sounded like Twisted Sister copped the drum intro to "We're Not Gonna Take It" from this song.

I'm pretty sure they were Cooties.

I recently alphabetized my MTV-2 marathon tapes, went to look for it to refresh my memory... and it's not there. What else is new? A shitty video from Hothouse Flowers is where it otherwise would have been.

Looks like it's on the Utopia Retrospective DVD, so maybe I'll have to pick that up to see it again.

Oh, and I couldn't find an mp3 of Twilley's "Cry Baby." Anybody else?

Thanks SubMassCon for the Utopia post. I really thought I was the only one who remembered that song and video, I glad to see that some of you liked that one too.
