Many point to Billy Squier as early-'80s rock personified —
an era when he and many of his peers tempered hard rock
with pop melodicism — and by adding just the right amount
of posing and posturing for the newly constructed MTV set,
he scored a string of arena rock anthems and power ballads.
But Squier did not enjoy overnight success as it took many
years and several failed bands before he hit paydirt as a
solo artist. Born on May 12, 1950, in Wellesley Hills, MA,
Squier began playing piano and guitar at an early age, but
didn't become serious with music until discovering Eric
Clapton (via the renowned British guitarist's stints with
John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and Cream) in the late '60s

------ About the song IN YOUR EYES performed by Billy Squier
I prefer listening to harder, faster songs than "In Your Eyes" (Billy Squier's "Whadda You Want from Me" is a great example). I was playing a vinyl copy of the album "Emotions in Motion". When the next to last track on side one started, I had to stop what I was doing (re-listing unsold LPs on eBay) and listen. I know I'd heard it before, many years ago, but being a soft, slow song, I probably hadn't paid it much mind. I guess I can thank maturity for helping me appreciate such a great, simple song. I grabbed my Ovation "Balladeer" and started learning the chord changes. Then I pointed my browser to sing365.com so I could sing along. The last lines of each stanza are the trickiest as far as playing and singing at the same time. But with enough practice (I already played it for over an hour last night), I'll get it. This is simply a beautiful long song, played and sung by someone who can rock out with the best of them. I wish Billy Squier was playing somewhere -- I haven't seen him play live since I saw his band Piper open for Kiss.
I have no idea where to get a version that I can add to my Project Playlist. No one has donwnloaded it. I love that song and I live for the local radio stations to play it! Billy rocks after all these years!
One of the few rock Christmas favorites apart from my traditional favorites. As good as "Blue Christmas" by Elvis. But, it sounds very much as it was Freddie Mercury singing...?
This song is simply one of the best rock n' roll Xmas songs of all time, right up there with "Christmas", by The Who and "Father Xmas" by the Kinks. Highly recommended.
