Hi hannahbear.  I don't know if that song was featured on SNL but it might very well have been.  Blue Oyster Cult had two U.S. Top 40 hits...the one mentioned above as well as "(Don't Fear) The Reaper".  :)

This song was a Top 10 hit off the same album as "Sister Christian".  If you've never heard it before, you should...it's good!  :)

I believe this song was released in 1979...it was John Cougar Mellencamp's very first Top 40 hit.  It has a long intro but once it gets into the song you would know immediately that it's one of John's.  Good rocker!   8)

Okay, thanks.  The only thing I remembered about that song is that it featured a lot of cowbell.  :)

Quite a few here I'm not familiar with...better go a-huntin'...!

1. Hold The Line - Toto 4, fine song...

2. Don't Look Back - Boston 4, Heh! Haven't played this in a while...good performance, if a tad overlong...

3. Double Vision - Foreigner 5, great stuff...!

4. Life's Been Good - Joe Walsh 5, ...as indeed was this...

6. Tush - ZZ Top 3, not bad, but not outstanding...

7. Strange Magic - ELO 4, not much of a 'rocker' (or a hit as such over here), but a lovely song...

8. Hells Bells - AC/DC 4, quality stuff from the lads, who are currently over here showing these newish upstart rock bands how it's done...

9. Rock You Like A Hurricane - Scorpions 4, played to death on radio at the time of release, but appears to have gone 'off-radar' these days...shame! Good performance...

10. Babe - Styx 5, their only hit single of any note here (although some LP's didn't do badly)...more 'power ballad' than 'rocker', but a peach of a song...(well, to my mind, at least!)

15. Lido Shuffle - Boz Scaggs 5, perfect driving song (assuming you're moving, of course!)...most of 'Silk Degrees' being brilliant...

17. Don't Cry - Asia 4, good 'un...!

18. Shake It Up - Cars 4

20. That's All! - Genesis 4

The remainder 'sort-of' ring bells, but not loudly enough!
Will definitely try and find that BOC song tho'...

If memory serves, I believe "Burnin' For You" came out around 1981.  :)
