I guess you knew already that this song was written for EC's Journeyman, but was rejected. Well, it was new to me.
Would love to hear a non-Lynne demo of it.

It is a good song. It was originally recorded during the Cloud Nine sessions, but wasn't released until a couple of years later.

I dig this song so much. The lyrics and guitar work are pretty cool. I might be wrong, but I think it first appeared over the credits for the movie "Lethal Weapon 3."

Quite correct Jerry but I think it was "Leathal Weapon 2" instead of the 3rd one. It's the one with the South Afrikan smugglers. Pretty sure it was recorded in 1988-89, after "Cloud 9" was released, I'll look it up...

It was recorded March 1989 for the Lethal Weapon 2 soundtrack, whereas the song was written in 1988 for Journeyman
