"Meet Me Half Way" is a song by American singer Kenny Loggins written by Giorgio Moroder and Tom Whitlock for the film Over the Top. It also appears on Loggins' sixth studio album, Back to Avalon. I completely forgot I had a small role as the scumbag bartender in a scripted Yacht Rock spinoff with the pilot focusing on Giorgio Moroder. That obviously never made it to air. This will make more sense after you listen to the program. Really lookin' forward to the weekend, you guys. K4RDS

Currently it's "Cowboy Song". Anyway, here's a great live version from Phil & the boys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdjq8xDnzuM
