2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1

Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
“Hard to Hold” was meant to be the vehicle to take Rick Springfield to the next level, but the film was destined to be the tail end of soap star’s peak. Springfield played a womanizing pop star (which we are sure was a big stretch for him as an actor) in a formulaic and predictable piece. The Soundtrack however with songs all done by Springfield did do well and generated three Top 40 hits, though don’t we really only remember him for “Jessie’s Girl”, which is not on the Soundtrack?
TV Show/Movie Appeared: Hard to Hold (1984)
Actors: Rick Springfield
Songs you may remember: Love Somebody
Don’t Walk Away
Why you should vote:: Does the fact that Springfield sang everything count?
Why you should not vote:: This was not a hit film.
