Don’t let the seemingly simple time signature fool you. There is plenty of Toto goodness in “Girl Goodbye.”
The story of Toto can be divided to before April 8, 1982, and after. That’s when they released ‘Toto IV,’ still the biggest album of their lengthy career.
The music on Toto’s “You Are the Flower” had always been more to my liking that the lyrics. Until I became a father. Then, I got it.
