80s Band Tells The Incredible Story Behind Their Classic One Hit Wonder | Professor of Rock

Released in 1988, The Promise was When In Rome’s debut single. It was written by all three band Members Clive Farrington, Andrew Mann and Michael Floreale. It’s a song that has only grown in status since that day and it still mesmerizes me as one of the greatest love songs of a decade known for great love songs. I was very fortunate to interview 2 of the 3 writers Clive Farrington and Andrew Mann about it. Here they are with the story behind The Promise, and how movies like Napoleon Dynamite introduced it to a new generation We Have New MERCH! https://bit.ly/ProfessorsMerch Thank you to this Episodes Sponsor, Zenni Optical Incredible Prices on New Glasses - https://bit.ly/ZenniOpticalShop ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Executive Producer Brandon Fugal Honorary Producers Michael Bedenbaugh, J Lee, Tom Malanga, Casey Gallagher, Ardashir Lea, James Smith, Brian G ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Access To Backstage Content Become a Patron - http://bit.ly/ProfessorofRockVIPFan Check Out My Hand Picked Selection Below Professor's 80s Store 100 Best Selling Albums https://amzn.to/3h3qZX9 Ultimate History of 80s Teen Movie https://amzn.to/3ifjdKQ 80s to 90s VHS Video Cover Art https://amzn.to/2QXzmIX Totally Awesome 80s A Lexicon https://amzn.to/3h4ilrk Best In Ear Headphones (I Use These Every Day) https://amzn.to/2ZcTlIl ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Click here for Premium Content: https://bit.ly/SignUpForPremiumContent​ https://bit.ly/Facebook_Professor_of_... https://bit.ly/Instagram_Professor_of... ​#80s #Rock #Story Hey music junkies and vinyl junkies Professor of Rock always here to celebrate the greatest artists and the greatest 80s songs of all time for the music community and vinyl community with music history video essay's.
