I was 10 when this was a hit. This song really sums up the late 70’s for me. Even now when I hear this, it’s like being teleported back to the fall of ‘78 in my room. Laying around me are various records, including Cheap Trick at Budokan, the first Van Halen album, the first Cars album, Blondie Parallel Lines, Ramones Road To Ruin, and Some Girls by the Stones. Star Wars posters on the walls. It’s a really nice feeling.

One of the songs that defined the era of the late 70's. I can remember it when it first came out. Aging myself. Pre-cell phone, pre-internet and even pre-personal computer (give or take a few years).

Very under rated pop writer. Incredible range as far as vocals. Met him several times when I was opening for him. He's quiet He's also very funny in dry way. True Canadian trail blazer. He opened doors for bands like Streetheart..lover boy and Brian Adams to name a few. I've always had a connection to him. I played my junior high dance when I was in grade 8. I remember playing Electric Love. Times were cool. I appreciate Nick Glider and his band. The hooks are endless. The band was extremely creative and tasty shown in such songs as Catch 22, You Really Rock Me and of course Roxy Roller. Lots of great memories growing up. Wish we didn't have to😁

I’ve always loved this song❣️ This is the first time I’ve watched the video. I always thought this was a female singer.😳
I'm just turned 59 this year and I used to sing this when I was 30 to 48yrs old at Karaoke. Loved this song since I first heard it. When I used to sing it everyone asked, "why am I singing a chick tune." I told them it's a guy singing it. Was surprised no one new that. Never did know he was Canadian and that's great. I'm a Canadian.

I was 9 yrs old still remembering this hit
I got up the other day with this song in my head. Hadn't heard it decades and always thought a woman was singing! I was 9 years old when I first heard this song. I miss the 80s music.
I still love this song!
Best music ever 70s and 80s !
Man brings back awsome memories.
Takes me back to my roller skating days
This is so weird I'm 54 and heard this song maybe a few times in my life. I woke up 10 minutes ago with the song in my mind.
I was in Jr. High when this hit #1. I'd go to the local restaurant for lunchtime. Play pinball and hear this song everyday.
The bass and beat tho 😅 hella delicious.. born ‘69.. radio play.. still love this song in 2023 ❤
I once had to sing this song at school for the whole week when walking in the hallways, why I did that I was bored and had nothing else to sing, I probably would have been singing love is a battlefield because that is my favorite song but I was sad because my crush was away all week!
Music from those days so much better.. all of it..
I always knew he was a guy even though I was only about 12. He’s a mix of Tom Petty and Bowie, he should have been massive, he has the talent and the charisma. Great guy, l love this.
I saw him perform this on TV when it was brand new, and I loved it right away. Catchy tune with a cool bass line. I can't remember if it was on Don Kirshner, Saturday Night Live, or Fridays.
