Scandal released their debut single, "Goodbye to You" in 1982. Their self-titled album, released soon afterwards, became the largest selling EP in the history of Columbia Records. The group's second album was released in 1984. The title track, "The Warrior", peaked at #7 on the Billboard "Hot 100" chart ... (a great song, although the video gets my vote for "worst ever"). In 1985 Smyth quit Scandal to launch a solo career, however she didn't enjoy any significant success until her 1992 duet with Don Henley, "Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough", which peaked at #2 on the Billboard chart. In 1997 Patty married tennis star John McEnroe. They have three children, including a daughter from Patty's previous marriage. |

Lyrics: | Now
you know That I stood outside your window just a little too long Whatcha gonna do When the hours pass away and you know that I'm gone Jokin' 'bout your mother went a little to far But you caught me - out with the others til the early dawn There may be a time - if we played it right I'm six blocks over and you wouldn't spend the night with me Now and the hours and the minutes just fly away You win some and you lose some You gotta get right Or I'll be saying bye bye bye bye Thinkin' 'bout you The way you're holdin' me down I'd be better off dead Now you know That the time is runnin' out on the things we said Well it may be a week - it may be a day I'm six blocks over and I don't know what to say to you Now and the hours and the minutes just fly away You win some and you lose some You gotta get right Or I'll be saying bye bye bye bye |
