REO Speedwagon - Throw The Chains Away
Review by Crystal Collins
Throw The Chains Away is the twelfth studio album by American rock band REO Speedwagon, released in 1991. The album is a mix of rock and ballads, with a focus on the band's signature sound of guitar-driven rock.
The album opens with "Throw The Chains Away", a hard-hitting rock anthem that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's trademark harmonies are on full display in "Love Is A Rock", while "Can't Get You Out Of My Heart" is a heartfelt ballad that showcases lead singer Kevin Cronin's emotive vocals.
Other standout tracks include "Break His Spell", a catchy rock number with a memorable chorus, and "I Don't Want To Lose You", a soaring ballad that features beautiful piano and guitar work.

I saw somebody, she was sittin' just an aisle away
She was a first class lady, and I knew that she looked refined
My heart started thumpin' louder than the engine whine
I got the sky blues, I'm up in the air
Runnin' from a lady who just don't care
And all I want to do is get down to earth with you
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, I got the sky blues
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, I got the sky blues
Well, I sat down beside her and I told her I was feeling blue
I said, my girl don't want me and it's breaking my heart in two
Well I felt so bad that I didn't even stick around, I said
We may be flying but heart's draggin' on the ground
