Don’t Say No was Billy Squier’s most successful album of his career and included the classic hits “In the Dark”, “Lonely Is the Night”, “My Kinda Lover” and “The Stroke”. Don’t Say No peaked in the Top Five on the Billboard albums chart and stayed there for over 2 years (111 weeks). It was certified Gold by the RIAA three months after its initial release, and Platinum two months after that.
After turning some heads with his debut, Billy Squier truly arrived with 1981’s Don’t Say No, which kicks off in spectacular fashion with the triple opening salvo of “In the Dark,” “The Stroke,” and “My Kinda Lover” – all of which become staples at rock radio. The album is a near-perfect example of early-’80s melodic hard rock, and even less enduring (but hardly inferior rockers) such as “You Know What I Like” and “Lonely Is the Night” keep up the intensity. And Squier also finds time for the occasional ballad, like the disarmingly gentle “Nobody Knows.” Completists may want to review his mid-’90s double-disc anthology, but as far as studio albums are concerned, Don’t Say No is undoubtedly his best.
