5. Can't Fight this Feeling Anymore - REO Speed Wagon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXvMT_mVbqw And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight You're a candle in the window On a cold dark winter's night And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might What naff lyrics. Yes it's time to bring the ship to shore and throw away the oars with REO Speedwagon's I Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore, a power ballad about a man who has fallen in love with a friend and is now taking the opportunity to express this love in a series of song lyrics that are cheesier than a jogger's socks. A hit in 1984, the song has been bothering compilation CD buyers for decades now. A guilty pleasure for many people singing along in a drunken manner, waving a lighter.
