Streets was a band made up of singer Steve Walsh, guitarist Cheap Trick is an American rock band from Rockford Illinois, that gained popularity in the late 1970s They released Power the following year.

The bouncy single "All I Wanted," although out of character for Kansas, fit in well with the mid-'80s pop music scene and sparked a big comeback for the band fueled by the song's promotional video receiving heavy rotation on cable music video channels. The video featured clips of a variety of women walking and smiling but only Walsh and Morse from the band. Specially mixed by famed producer Humberto Gatica, the song was a major top 40 and adult contemporary hit that can still be heard on soft rock radio stations, although the band has not played the song in concert for many years.

The follow-up singles "Power" and "Can't Cry Anymore" failed to receive significant airplay. A video featuring comedian Richard Belzer was produced for "Can't Cry Anymore" but was never widely released.
