I Can’t Get Excited

The song I Can’t Get Excited, with its 5 minutes and 1 second duration, was conceived at a key moment for Air Supply. Although the album Lost in Love, released in March 1980, was the one that catapulted the band to international fame, this particular piece did not become a standout single. However, the arrangement work by Air Supply alongside Robie Porter, and the subsequent mixing by Linda Corbin and Jim Hilton, shape a sound that, although it did not resonate massively on the charts, is part of the DNA of this album.

This album marked a before and after for the duo Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock. Their previous works, while having some impact in their native Australia, did not achieve the global impact that Lost in Love did. This album reached number 22 on the United States charts, and from it, three singles were released that reached the Top 5. The double platinum certification by the RIAA in 1991 underscores the magnitude of their success. Graham Russell himself was recognized with an award for "song of the year" and "most played song" for the track that gives the album its title, Lost in Love, while All Out of Love became their biggest hit, reaching second place in the United States.
