"Easy Way Out" by Jack Wagner

On the acting side, Jack Wagner is best known for his stints on several soap operas in the 80s, and the prime time soap opera Melrose Place in the 90s. On the music side, he is largely considered a one-hit wonder thanks to "All I Need," which went to #2 in 1985.

Wagner achieved a handful of other Top 100 entries, including "Lady Of My Heart" (#76), "Too Young" (#52), and "Weatherman Says" (#67). All told, he's released six albums to date.

"Easy Way Out" is from his 1987 effort, "Don't Give Up Your Day Job," which turned out to be good self-advice for this actor. Although, with cuts like "Easy Way Out," Wagner might have been able to reinvent himself as a rocker instead of a crooner.
