Song #388: "Don't Tell Me You Love Me"--Night Ranger (1982)

Now here's a 1980's group if ever there was one. This was the first time we got to enjoy the guys from San Francisco, as this tune was the first single from their debut LP, "Dawn Patrol", released late in 1982.

MTV loved it, so did radio stations like XL102, K94, and 3WV, as this song peaked at #4 on the rock chart, only making it to #40 in the Hot 100, so hardly any exposure to the Casey Kasem crowd.

There would be more from Night Ranger, including their biggest chart hit "Sister Christian", which hit the Hot 100's Top 5 in 1984. And we'll hear from them again along the way. But for now, don't tell me you love me..... :)
