Who knew Howard Stern was the lead singer of REO Speedwagon?

If you'd asked us an hour ago who sang the early 80's power ballad "Keep on Loving You," we'd have guessed Journey or Foreigner. And we wouldn't have been able to name a single song by the actual band, REO Speedwagon. Thanks to the magic of the Sirius Satellite Radio, we now know the truth.

And thanks to the magic of YouTube, we've discovered a wonderful lost video.

Funny. Haven't heard that song in eons and I still remember the lyrics. Love this song.

I'm a big fan of REO Speedwagon. I never saw them in concert, but I loved their music. It all sounds pretty much the same, but that's OK.

Well then, do yourself a favor and look up these other REO songs. The live version of "157 Riverside Avenue", "Ridin' the Storm Out" and the " Turkey Trot" ( might be "Gray's Turkey Trot"). These songs were on the album "You Get What You Play For". Before REO became known for nothing but love songs, they were a real Rock and Roll band. Check it out.

Nailed it!
