One of Rick Springfield's biggest hits was "Don't Talk To..." what?

One of Rick Springfield's biggest hits was “Don't Talk To Strangers.” The song was written and performed by Australian musician Rick Springfield and released in 1982 on his album Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet.

The track followed Springfield's breakthrough with “Jessie's Girl,” his 1981 worldwide hit. “Don't Talk To Strangers” became another major success, reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. Its title and chorus are often remembered as a general safety warning, but the song is actually framed as a jealous romantic plea to a partner.

Springfield recorded several notable hits during the early 1980s, including “I've Done Everything for You,” “Affair of the Heart,” and “Love Somebody.” A common mix-up is confusing this song with similarly titled recordings by other artists; the quiz refers specifically to Springfield's 1982 pop-rock hit.
