Ah, I see you have Asia's debut eponymous album. In 1982, when I started at Presidio Middle School, my classmates saw the album cover, looked north to the Golden Gate, and thought that the dragon was going to rise from the Bay waters.
If you DJ, you'll find that people still love "Only Time Will Tell" and "Heat Of The Moment."
In 6th grade, I had a crush on this girl in PE, KK. So when 7th grade started, it was the first Friday. After school, I put on my Walkman, joyously sing along to Asia's "Don't Cry," and as I turn to Clement Street, who should walk by, but KK and her two good friends, Helen and Kathy, both of whom were in my academic classes. I just froze, and probably turned Strawberry Shortcake red. Helen smiled, "Oooh, do you like KK?" Judging from my silence/non-answer, Helen and Kathy knew that the answer was YES.
Lame, but all I could muster was, "Bye; have a nice weekend; see you on Monday."
All hot and bothered, I just could not go home. I had to do something to take my mind off...no...to keep thinking about KK. And, the Stereotypical Audiophile that I was, where did I go? To Rainbow Records and The Record Factory, both on Geary near Stanyan. I wanted the 7" 45 rpm single of Asia's "Don't Cry," but damn, neither store had it.
So, no "Don't Cry," no KK, and still no dragon rising from the Bay :-)
