Composed by the established hitmaking team of Tom Kelly and Bill Steinberg, “You Come to My Senses” isn’t a bad song. It’s just a bad Chicago song.
Unfortunately, Chicago had no idea how to make a promising demo from Marc Jordan into something of their own. Here’s my suggestion.
Bill Champlin does his best, but Chicago’s utterly generic “You’re Not Alone” could have been a minor hit for any number of other bands of the same era.
