Day 684 - Survivor - Is This Love?

For those who don't know, I am listing my 10,000 favorite songs in this blog. This will take just under 30 years from start to completion. This blog can be found at Blogger, Livejournal for your convenience.

DAY 684
Survivor - Is This Love?
From "When Seconds Count"
Year: 1986




Look up "Survivor" on Amazon.com and half of the first ten links are related to the TV show.

When people think of the BAND Survivor, "Eye of the Tiger" is almost certainly going to be the song that comes to mind. It is an example of a song that is so huge that it almost overshadows the band, because it makes you forget that they had other hits.

When it comes to other hits, Survivor had a string of them. Songs like "High on You", "Burning Heart", "The Search is Over" and "I Can't Hold Back" were unavoidable radio staples at the time of their release.

"Is This Love?" is quite possibly my favorite Survivor song that isn't "Eye of the Tiger". Of course, I associate that song with a Starbucks commercial for reasons that should prove obvious.
