It sounds to me more like the Tommy Shaw side of Styx. Light voice that hits the high notes. A lot of keyboard to satisfy Dennis DeYoung. Reo and STYX have been considered twins seperated at birth by some, but listen to “If I Could Just Get Through This Night” or “Crystal Ball” by STYX and you may hear that, too.
Okay, I had a listen and that’s not it.
I’m talking more the melody. Namely, “no one is ever going to love you more than I do…”
It’s not REO Speedwagon. I was a big REO fan.That’s not their style.
Nope. I was a big Boston fan as well.
I still love this song.
I know that I’m not losing my mind. It’s a mystery, kids.
@Adirondack, how old are you? I don’t think that we’re far off in age. I’m 38.
@Jude It’s familiar but I can’t place it.
Eagles?
Totally just guessing…. =/
Also, that Band of Horses song breaks my heart every time. :(
“Vocalist Bridwell has been likened to Jim James of My Morning Jacket,[2] early Neil Young, and Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips.[3]”

The chorus reminds me of oREO Speedwagon, Air Supply, a wee bit of Toto.
Maybe a smidgen of Supertramp.
Electric Light Orchestra otherwise known as E.L.O.
Ha. They sound like an older band, Mr. Sagan. :)
They sure sound more like REO Speedwagon.
