Description
Steve Lukather, David Paich and Steve Porcaro of multi-platinum mega band Toto tell the amazing story of the #2 hit Rosanna from their 1982 blockbuster album Toto IV. Inspired by actress Rosanna Arquette who along the way her magnetism and piercing blue eyes have captivated several rock luminaries such as Peter Gabriel who wrote In Your Eyes about her. In the early 80s, Arquette was in a romantic relationship with rocker Steve Porcaro, the coveted keyboardist for Toto, and one of the most sought after session musicians. Toto bandmate & fellow virtuoso, David Paich, who was always searching for real life inspiration to write lyrics and song titles, was working on a tune about a girl he dug in high school.Since the relationship between Porcaro & Arquette was hot & heavy at the time, he decided to title his un-named song "Rosanna." This is the story of the song straight from the members of Toto.
