Expose's biggest hit, "Seasons Change", has nothing to do with the seasons. But rather it's a ballad that touches on how relationships change. If the background vocals in this song tell you anything ("I want you!"), it's the woman here who is missing the way things used to be with the man. She is not adjusting well to life in the present and yearns for better days from the past. And, yes, the song isn't complete without the requisite 1980s sax solo.
Phil Collins, Elton John, and Gloria Estefan dominated Adult Contemporary radio back in the 1980s and '90s, yet have disappeared from modern radio. Seemingly, the only time you ever hear them is at the grocery store or your local CVS. This blog remembers the music, the stories and the quirky characters from my days working in Adult Contemporary radio.

Expose - "Seasons Change"
Expose's biggest hit, "Seasons Change", has nothing to do with the seasons. But rather it's a ballad that touches on how relationships change.
