 Music Review: Rick Springfield - We Are The '80s
Springfield has often been quoted as saying the song is about the birth of his first son, and the emotions he experienced, though the lyrics state it plain enough.
The song, like many of Springfield's, is rooted in the angst and emotions of the romantic relationship and sings of the jealousies and insecurities involved when one gives their heart away.
Whether it is the lustful wishes of "Jessie's Girl" or the deep contemplative "Rock of Life," Springfield was a mainstay in the '80s because of the songs and the way listeners were able to connect to the emotions and ideas contained therein.
