Billboard Hot 100 peak: #8 (two weeks)

Today's Song of the Day comes from the pop/rock band Night Ranger, who had their first top-10 hit in 1984 with "Sister Christian" and a top-20 follow-up with "When You Close Your Eyes". For their third album 7 Wishes, the band pulled off a "Sister Christian" knockoff called "Sentimental Street", written by bass guitarist Jack Blades and sung by drummer Kelly Keagy. Of course it came with another elaborate music video complete with costumes and multiple sets...
