Love is hard to find when the whole world is watching.
 
 
Features: DVD
 
Grammy-winning superstar Rick Springfield ('Jessie's Girl') heats up the screen in this rock and roll romance. An incredible soundtrack features seven Springfield songs, including the hit, 'Love Somebody,' as well as music by Peter Gabriel, Graham Parker and Nona Hendryx.

Jamie Roberts (Springfield) is a rock star living the highlife when he falls for an intellectual child psychologist (Janet Eilber) who only has ears for the classics. Opposites attract, but his jealous ex-girlfriend isn't ready to give up so easily.
 


Editor's Note

When a popular rock star and a children's counselor fall for each other, they soon discover that music isn't always the food of love - especially when it comes with jealous girlfriends and panting groupies. The soundtrack includes seven Springfield songs, including "Love Somebody."


Plot Summary

Rock star James Roberts pursues the child psychologist he meets in a car accident. Their budding romance is complicated, however, by the perils of his fame and the demands of his career, and by her reluctance to commit.
