Into the night
I have no time to waste to dedicate this song to a loved one; a young girl who is terminally ill.
"If I could fly, I'd pick you up & take you into the night and show you love, like you've never seen."

#Interestingly In 1989, “What About Me” was reissued… The proven, long-running former hit managed a respectable second life, peaking at #46 on the US #Top40… Almost making Moving Pictures 2X #OneHitWonder honorees with one song. It has happened before. #MovingPictures #BennyMardones #OneHitWondered

#QuickSidenote That opening line, ‘She’s just 16 years old, leave her alone...’ has long sparked backlash… especially after viewing the original video. For many, it’s still uncomfortable viewing. Despite the controversy, radio embraced it twice. #BennyMardones #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly Benny Mardones isn’t a household name, now or then… but his power ballad “Into The Night” carved out a permanent place for him in #OneHitWonderland. The single charted twice, nearly a decade apart… a rare feat that reflects the song’s power & some luck. #BennyMardones #OneHitWondered
