Richard Marx - Hazard

'Hazard' is a 1991 song performed by adult contemporary artist Richard Marx. It has since become one of the most popular songs by Richard Marx

'Hazard' tells the story of an implied relationship of some kind between Marx's character (usually considered the protagonist) and a woman named Mary. Mary is presumably murdered and Marx, shunned by many in the small town since his childhood, is immediately considered the main suspect. Marx, however, maintains his innocence throughout the song, and the question of such is left open to the listener's interpretation.

This song about a fictional event was named after the real town of Hazard, Nebraska. Reportedly, Marx became caught on the phrase "...and leave this old Nebraska town." He needed a two-syllable town name to fit the first line of the song, so he obtained a list of the names of all two-syllable towns and cities in Nebraska, from which he chose Hazard.

I know that this was not released in the 80's but just loved this song so had to include it here.
