I remember when this album came out in the spring of 1982.' I was 19 years old!!. Good times. Such a happy vibe tune. It was something like nobody had ever heard before. I liked Hold the line when it came out . That was the jam. Made me buy the album, only on vinyl back in those days. On my techniques turn table, with Pickering cartridge, and JVC Amp. Had Bose 601' speakers. Those were the days.

But the ghost notes are inspired by John Bonham’s drumming on Fool In The Rain by Led Zeppelin. He then added a Bo-diddly kick pattern to bring it all together and thus the Porcaro shuffle was born.

Wow! Surprised, not only the fact someone covered Rosanna, but by the fact that it's Weezer who covered it. And covered it quite convincingly I might add. I mean I'm a fan of Weezer's catalogue and always thought they were a talented rock band, but never in a million years did I believe they could pull off a cover of one of the most technically difficult songs ever written by a modern rock group. Toto was and still are in a league of their own up there with the likes of Rush, Yes, etc. Good job Weezer! They showed that they respect the heritage of earlier pioneers in modern rock and respectfully covered one those bands amazing work, and also showed they have huge fucking giant ballsacks in the fact they were willing to put that cover out there and expose themselves to possible ridicule. But, on hearing it, I would say only complete asshole haters would critize because their version is very credible and good.

They really do good jobs on both Toto cuts. The midway synth solos of both songs are REALLY damn good...like REALLY good. Commenters are right...Toto were INSANE musicians, all with massive chops & perfect pitch. I’ve heard them covered so many times, most deserving little more than vimitorious merits. This is good, and while not as clean, it’s still good. Not many vocalists can pull off Toto - it’s not always about voice size & skill, but overall timbre. Both Toto cuts work for him. Most excellent. Finish off the trio with “Hold The Line.”

One of my all time favorite songs originally written and recorded by the most elite pop rock musicians of their (most all) era. Anyone who hasn’t heard the original record totally improvised Steve Lukather outro solo, find it. It’s just killer piano groove with blistering guitar and major 3rd bends. Toto is iconic and they made lush orchestrated records with stellar vocals long before auto tune or digitally quantitized editing was thought of.

He shunned the whole family and some other decent people after our Father's death in 2019. His loss, but I'll miss him. He is the reason I found out I could dance and come up with a routine on the spot. He played his stereo in his basement bedroom, while I danced as a child outside on the large concrete area.

Worked in radio, followed Toto since it's inception member and direction changes. Weezer does a very good if not great cover of this. Though I doubt they will, I would really like to hear more.

Believe it or not, this is one of *two* Top Ten hits written about 80's actress Rosanna Arquette. The other song was: Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes"

It wasnt ABOUT Rosanna Arquette. Just used her name cause she was datiing Steve Porcaro at the time. Thats the first time I heard that about In your Eyes. Patti Boyd, wife of George Harrison and later Eric Clapton was the subject of numerous songs, Namely Something(Beatles),Layla (Clapton) and Wonderful Tonight(Clapton).
