Blackjack "Really Wanna Know" 1980 Michael Bolton/Bruce Kulick song
Lyrics:
The people come from all around And lay their precious money down Satisfaction, guaranteed No distractions, all you need Spend a weekend in paradise Try this on, it's very nice You're having fun Stick around and we'll sell you the sun And soon ya learn to play the game Ya lose ya win it's all the same Catch your dream before it fades And join the endless masquerade Where pain relievers speak to you A make believers dream come true You learn so well No one not even you can tell But I really wanna know I'm telling you I really wanna know Oh I I Really wanna know And I got no choice can you tell me what's going on Now every game begins and ends You know the player still pretends In mausoleums, painted walls The tale of those who'd have it all The slave of glory's lost demands To always leave with empty hands The conqueror Tell me what have you come here for But I really wanna know I'm telling you I really wanna know Oh I I Really wanna know And I got no choice can you tell me what's going on This life it is your only friend It's whispered in your ear In a voice it seems like ages You've been waiting so long to hear And suddenly the mystery, and Meaning become so clear Hold on yesterday's gone But I really wanna know But I really wanna know I'm telling you I really wanna know Oh I I Really wanna know And I got no choice can you tell me what's going on Oh, I really wanna know I really wanna know I really wanna know I really wanna know And I've got no choice Can you tell me, what's goin' on
This is a really great track from "World's Apart" by Blackjack called "Really Wanna Know". The song was written by Michael Bolton and Bruce Kulick and has a very memorable chorus as well as an excellent constructed guitar solo by Bruce Kulick. The album was produced by Eddy Offord.

Bruce Kulick Explains What Went Wrong with Blackjack
Martin Kielty Published: September 25, 2021
Bruce Kulick reflected on what went wrong with Blackjack, the band he formed with Michael Bolton in 1979.
The group existed for around a year and released two albums in that time, while also completing a nationwide tour. But in a new interview with Rolling Stone, Grand Funk Railroad and Kiss alumnus Kulick said they’d been misdirected by their record label.
Recalling he’d recently left Meat Loaf’s band, he continued: “Around this time, Michael Bolotin – [his name] at the time – gets this fantastic opportunity. He went for a solo record deal, and the people around him at the label wanted a band. Bands were better than solo artists. That’s when he reached out to guys he liked. We got a great bass player with Jimmy Haslip, an amazing guy that went on to win a Grammy for jazz-fusion bands. He was our John Paul Jones. And then Sandy Gennaro, a great drummer from Staten Island, worked really hard. He loved Led Zeppelin and all that. We were definitely in love with that kind of British big blues-rock of that kind of band, and Bad Company.”
Even though the label “poured a lot of money” into Blackjack’s self-titled debut album, Kulick noted: “I remember when it came out, the No. 1 album that slayed everything was Breakfast in America by Supertramp. That’s not exactly the rock ’n’ roll we were doing.” He added: “[T]hat record company, Polydor, they hyped it so much that we didn’t have a chance out of the gate. They put such money and hype into it, but then the phones didn’t ring with the songs. All we could do was second-guess. ‘Did we choose the wrong single? Did we not have the right tour?’”
He argued that everything had worked out for the best, however. “And then Michael went off solo and changed his name to Bolton. I’m doing work and recording with him again. Now we’re recording with Bob Seger. Who’s the drummer with Bob Seger? Don Brewer from Grand Funk Railroad.… It all fits together.”
Kulick briefly worked with Billy Squier in 1980 but found himself with mixed loyalties as Blackjack tried to save their future. As a result, he could only watch from the sidelines as Squier became “a quadruple-platinum Number 1 artist.” But he continued: “Then I realized if I was faithful to Billy instead of Blackjack, I might not have had the opportunity to get the Kiss gig. That’s why many times when a door closes, you never really know what the full picture is until some time goes by.”
