They had a run of hit singles during the 1980s and early 1990s, scoring a total of 19 top-ten singles across the US Billboard Hot 100, Adult Contemporary and Mainstream Rock charts. Their greatest success was with their number-one album, 'Sports'. Their worldwide fame expanded when their recording of "The Power of Love" was featured as a key track in the 1985 movie "Back to the Future" (in which Huey Lewis made a cameo appearance). The song became a number-one hit, and it was nominated for an Academy Award.
From a first single in 1979, the group successfully combined a pop rock and power pop (and sometimes, a blues rock) influenced backing with harmony side-vocals and Lewis' strident voice, and the band had numerous hit songs during the 1980s and early 1990s. These include "The Power of Love" and "Back in Time" (both of which were featured in the film "Back to the Future"), "I Want a New Drug", "Doin' It All (For My Baby)", "Do You Believe in Love?" "Hip to Be Square", "Stuck With You", and "Jacob's Ladder". Huey Lewis shared three Grammy awards, an American Music Award, and a People's Choice Award along with several artists for his role singing the 1985 charity song "We Are the World" as well.

Living In A Box
Huey Lewis & The News Lyrics
The lovers they kiss and slowly they turn
for drawing a breath there is nothing but time
A thousand million years before we crash in the sun
And I know we will be still here in Her arms
In the thick black night we could lie in the grass
And gaze at the sky and watch the satellites pass
A thousand million miles, the earth She will turn
Then still we will be here in Her arms
And if we can float away in our dreams
There's a city that waits under the sea
The days to pass living in the rose
The seeded land slow and old
The scented air heavy and warm
Whispers, touches . . .
for drawing a breath there is nothing but time
A thousand million years before we crash in the sun
And I know we will be still here in Her arms
In the thick black night we could lie in the grass
And gaze at the sky and watch the satellites pass
A thousand million miles, the earth She will turn
Then still we will be here in Her arms
And if we can float away in our dreams
There's a city that waits under the sea
The seeded land slow and old
The scented air heavy and warm
Whispers, touches . . .
