Fore! is the fourth studio album by American rock band Huey Lewis and the News, released in 1986. According to Lewis, the album track "Forest for the Trees" was written for and about kids struggling with life issues as an uplifting message for them. Lewis based it off of the letters he received from young fans at the time who would talk about how important his music was to them. 2๏ธโฃ โฌ๏ธ

The compact disc of the album is seen in the film American Psycho. The main character Patrick Bateman, while talking to one of his potential victims, gives a review of the album, discussing the band's viewpoint, intent, and how specifically the song "Hip to Be Square" espouses "the pleasures of conformity" but with a catchy 1980s beat, going on to state it is "the group's most accomplished album". 5๏ธโฃโฌ๏ธ

The wall that Lewis and the members of the band stand against on the album's cover is a wall from Tamalpais High School in Mill Valley, California. Band members Bill Gibson, Sean Hopper, and Mario Cipollina went to this school together. 6๏ธโฃ โฌ๏ธ

Doing It All For My Baby
Song by Huey Lewis and the News Early in the morning, I'm still in bed
She comes to me with sweet affection
Wakes me with kisses, hello sleepyhead
Gets me moving in the right direction
I do my best to give her love that lasts forever
It seems like everything I do I'm doing better
Doing it all for my baby
Because she's as fine as she can be
I'm doing it all for my baby
For everything, she does for me 2๏ธโฃ โฌ๏ธ

Later in the evening, it's been a busy day
She lays her head upon my weary shoulder
Listen to her laughing, snuggle up and say
Now I'm with you baby, the loneliness is over
I do my best to give her love that lasts forever
It seems like everything I do I'm doing better
Doing it all for my baby
'Cause she's as fine as she can be
Doing it all for my baby
For everything, she does for me 3๏ธโฃ โฌ๏ธ
