"Undercover, music lover, and art lover like me..." Review written by Jon the Moonspinner, February 17th, 2010 "Talk to Me", written by Chas Sanford, did well--but not great--on the charts. Despite heavy rotation on '80s radio, it wasn't the smash single Stevie was probably hoping for. MTV put the over-produced video into "special" rotation, meaning that it was only shown at specific times during the day (I was never sure if this was a compliment to the artist or not). Meanwhile, the non-Lp B-side "One More Big Time Rock and Roll Star" was just as ungainly as its title suggests. "There were candles, crystals, I was anyone's fantasy--SAY I'M NOT!--'cause the work...just gets...harder...the world gets...OHHH!" Oddly choppy, sketchy, and poorly produced, the self-written song was an uneasy mix of self-examination, rock and balladry. This is symptomatic of the "Rock a Little " album in general: too much fuss and gloss, not enough heart or grit.
