Rick Springfeield -- When I think about Rick, I immediately think of "Jessie's Girl" and "General Hospital"; the early 1980's and what a heartthrob he was and still is. The dark feathered-back hair, the handsome boyish looks, and the well-toned guitar-playing arms of his, hopping-and-bopping along to his catchy musical performances of popular tunes, that stand-out as being some of my favorites of the 1980's pop-culture era.
Much to my delightful surprise, I found a few music videos of Rick, from back when he was an emerging star in Australia, back in the early 1970's. He performed in an Australian group called "Zoot" and also performed as an Australian solo artist, singing songs such as "Speak To The Sky" in 1971.
The early 1980's we could find Rick singing (the popular for the times) "Jessie's Girl" or portraying Dr. Noah Drake on "General Hospital", which were great treats for us (soap-opera and pop music) heart-throb fans.
This video shows just how handsome a lover ("General Hospital's") Dr. Noah Drake could be.
In the recent years -- The Foo Fighters with Rick Springfield is a double-treat. In the video below, Rick plays along with the Foo Fighters, singing "I've Done Everything For You" with such vivacious energy. (He still has it!)
