Irresistible force meets immovable object. Alley cat with a Telecaster makes moves on a good old-fashioned girl. He has his NEEDS. She has her REASONS. He has desire, she has expectations. It’s a relationship cul-de-sac and a three-chord avalanche.
"Keep Your Hands to Yourself” was released in November of ‘86, and eventually hit #2 on the Billboard charts, being thwarted by a Bon Jovi song I’d rather forget.
Written by lead vocalist Dan Baird, it’s Georgia Satellites and the leadoff track from their debut long player, which is a party in and of itself. However, if you cotton to the idea of a Chuck Berry/Faces mashup, all three of their albums will do nicely. They might even peel your wallpaper for you.
