4105. R.E.O. Speedwagon - In Your Letter

From: Hi Infidelity; Year: 1980; Genre: Rock

And yet another song I was absolutely sure I had already chosen in the past, but was mistaken.
In Your Letter is one that has a lot of memories tied to; my dad had an 8-Track tape with this song and other hits from the late 70's/early 80's. He'd play it and my siblings and I would "dance" to the tape when we were very young; yep a lot of fond memories.
Anyway, it's rather odd being that it's a upbeat song about a lover getting a "Dear John" letter and being jilted by his love. From wot I've read, it's actually based on a happening with a member of the band at the time.
