Corey Hart – Boy In The Box (US 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1985

“Boy In The Box” was the second single released from Canadian singer Corey Hart’s sophomore album “Boy In The Box”.

After his first album, First Offense took off, the photogenic and often brooding Corey Hart was often compared to James Dean in the media. For his second album, he wrote “Boy in the Box” about Dean, and what it must have been like living in the public eye as if he were being observed in a box. Hart often felt the same way, as he found his sudden fame overwhelming at times. “Boy In The Box” reached #4 in Hart’s home country of Canada and #26 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 on November 2, 1985, after spending twelve weeks on the survey.
