"No not the news, the fear invoking controller of the masses. No, I mean the band Huey Lewis and the News." Patrick smiled, so naïve.

"Their early work was a little too 'new-wave' for my taste, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own – both commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour. In '87, Huey released this, Fore, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is 'Hip To Be Square', a song so catchy most people probably don't listen to the lyrics – but they should! Because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself!"
Patrick seemed to have gone off on one. "Sorry.... I like music.." Patrick composed himself a little better as he turned the song off.

" Patrick asked as he heard movement from somewhere around the house. "Ghosts?" Patrick joked.
