The man who has sold more than 30 million records, spawning such ‘80s classics as “The Heart of Rock and Roll,” “I Want a New Drug,” the Oscar-nominated “The Power of Love” and the song he’s fretting about now, a narrative lynchpin in both the book and film of Brett Easton Ellis/Mary Harron’s “American Psycho.” “People though I was singing about myself.”
“It was like an explosion,” he recalled, which left a buzzing radio static in his ears that “made it difficult to hear what people were saying. I couldn’t sing in tune.” According to the Mayo Clinic website, “no cure exists.” On good days, Lewis rates his hearing a “6 out of 10,” on days when he’s a “3,” he can barely carry on a phone conversation. The frustration is not knowing what to expect from the condition, which also includes bouts of vertigo.
With a return to the live stage increasingly unlikely — the group still includes original keyboardist Sean Hopper, drummer Bill Gibson and guitarist/saxist Johnny Colla — the first track on the new record, “While We’re Young” says it all. “Life is short/ Let’s take advantage of every opportunity.” “We all want this film to have a happy ending, I couldn’t wish for anything more,” says Kuenne, who has directed episodes of NBC’s “Blacklist” and is also a film score composer. “As a musician, his plight hit me right in the gut,” says Kuenne. “It’s an unflinching look at what Huey is going through. I don’t know how many people could have his [positive] attitude. He can’t even listen to music because of this condition; it distorts notes and makes them sound out of tune.
