Toto - Stranger In Town 1984 HD

“Stranger in Town“ is a hit song by American rock band Toto from their 1984 album Isolation. It was the first single released from that album, reaching the Top 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 in December 1984. The song was the band's highest-ever charting Mainstream Rock track, eventually peaking at number 7. It was also a Top 40 single in Australia, where it remains the fourth highest charting single by Toto, behind only “Hold the Line“, “Rosanna“, and “Africa“. The song was written by David Paich and Jeff Porcaro, and features Paich on lead vocals. The music video (directed by Steve Barron) and lyrics to the song are based on the film Whistle Down The Wind, about an escaped convict who runs into a group of children that mistake him for Jesus. Actor Brad Dourif plays the convict, and new member Fergie Frederiksen appears as a murder victim. Dourif and Toto would also work on the movie Dune that same year. The video was nominated at the 1985 MTV Music Video Awards for Best Direction.[
