Recorded in Britain, it features two songs by Jim Steinman, both previously recorded, and a duet with Roger Daltrey.

Women Songwriters
A woman is an adult female human. Prior to adulthood, a female human is referred to as a girl (a female child or adolescent). The plural ''women'' is sometimes used in certain phrases such as "women's rights" to denote female humans regardless of age. Typically, women inherit a pair of X chromosomes, one from each parent, and are capable of pregnancy and giving birth from puberty until menopause. More generally, sex differentiation of the female fetus is governed by the lack of a present, or functioning, SRY-gene on either one of the respective sex chromosomes. Female anatomy is distinguished from male anatomy by the female reproductive system, which includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, vagina, and vulva. A fully developed woman generally has a wider pelvis, broader hips, and larger breasts than an adult man. Women have significantly less facial and other body hair, have a higher body fat composition, and are on average shorter and less muscular than men. Througho ...

It also included the first recording of "You Do It", subsequently recorded by Diana Ross and Rita Coolidge, and a cover of Janis Ian's classic " In the Winter".

Running The Endless Mile
''Running the Endless Mile'' is the second album by John Parr, released in 1986. The lead single " Blame It on the Radio" reached U.S. #88, the only song to reach the U.S. singles charts. The first track on the album, " Two Hearts", was taken from the soundtrack to the film ''American Anthem''. However, an earlier soundtrack hit, Parr's #1 hit of the previous summer "'' St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)''" from the film of the same title (and also on the Atlantic label) was ''not'' included on this album, which may have limited its sales (the album failed to crack the Top 200 in the U.S.). Instead, a song that was on his first album, "Don't Leave Your Mark on Me" was repeated in a different version. Background ''Running the Endless Mile'' was recorded in various studios over a period of five months in 1986. Parr told ''Billboard'' in 1986, "I needed to have an album out this year because it's been two years since my last one. The only way to do it was in between promotion and gi ...

Under A Raging Moon (song)
"Under a Raging Moon" is a song by Roger Daltrey, the lead singer of The Who. This song is the tenth & title track on Daltrey's sixth solo album, ''Under a Raging Moon''. The single reached #43 in the UK and #10 on the Billboard's Mainstream Rock Charts, but failed to chart on the United States pop singles chart. The tune was written by John Parr (of St Elmo's Fire fame) and Julia Downes. It is a tribute to The Who's former drummer, Keith Moon, who died in 1978. It was said that The Who's bass player John Entwistle had wanted to play this song instead of "Won't Get Fooled Again" when the band performed at Live Aid in 1985, but guitarist Pete Townshend disagreed. Entwistle decided to record his own version on his live solo album '' Left for Live'' as a tribute to Moon instead. Reception Mike DeGagne of Allmusic reviewed the recording, stating "Daltrey's thunderous but passionate ode to his former friend and drummer Keith Moon is a fervent downpour of frustration that can be ...
