"So Far So Good" by Sheena Easton

Sheena Easton woke up the 80s with her housewife anthem, "Morning Train (Nine To Five)". The song chugged right to #1 in early 1981. Her charting career lasted a solid decade, ending in 1991 with "What Comes Naturally" hitting #19.

Easton nearly hit the top twice more in 1987 and 1988. She had two consecutive #2 hits, her duet with Prince ("U Got The Look") and the Babyface penned "The Lover In Me".

Two songs that I think should have been bigger hits for Easton include her take on the Martha Reeves & the Vandellas song "Jimmy Mack" and this one, "So Far So Good". "So Far So Good" is a quintessential 80s tune that Easton contributed to the soundtrack of the 1986 film About Last Night
