Now this truck driver's gear change by Sammy Hagar is cunning (which is my typically immodest way of admitting that I've had this single for thirty years and I've only just noticed). The first two verse/chorus cycles are in D and A, and the first proper middle eight, at 1 min 37 sec starts in the chord of E, but resolves itself nicely back into another chorus in D and A. So far so good.
But then they start the next chorus at 2 min 11 seconds in E and B (instead of D and A), which tricks you into thinking that it's another middle eight (a contradiction in terms, but some people do it) and finish off the whole song in that new, higher key. Bastards!
