#FortnightFridayMusic November 14 2025 the word is "Defend"
Artist: Gowan
Album: Strange Animal (1985)
Song: A Criminal Mind
Before you hand me over
Before you read my sentence
I'd like to say a few words here in my own defense
Some people struggle daily
They struggle with their conscience to the end
I have to guilt to haunt me
I feel no wrong intent

Awesome video, amazing song, and I totally kill it at karaoke. Seriously.
Gowan's probably best known these days for being Dennis DeYoung's replacement in Styx, but he's one of the few acts that came up to my hometown when I was a kid, so respect for that, at least.

Death defiant man-made giant
The sum of all we killed
A living toxic will
We can't stop runnin'
The Dragon's comin'
Gowan may have started as mid-80s Canadian late-new-wave pop, but he was at his best with less pop-oriented lyrical topics, like "A Criminal Mind" or "Holding This Rage". Or "The Dragon", an environmental warning song from back when we were more worried about pollution than climate change. (These days he's Dennis De Young's replacement as lead singer of Styx, as I recall.)

Just going to veer right into #retro #nostalgic #Canadian #Rock & #PopRock #music #GuiltyPleasures now. In no particular order.
Kicking it off with one of my 80s faves:
