Lewis is as wry and witty as ever on vocals as he sings about turning back the clock, while still properly acknowledging the limits of one\u2019s age: \u201cWe\u2019ll take a nap in the afternoon\/That\u2019s just part of the fun\/So much of youth is wasted on the young\/Watch your tongue\u2026 Tell the kids we\u2019ll be late\/And we\u2019ll need to recuperate!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWhile We\u2019re Young\u201d follows Huey Lewis and the News\u2019 previous single, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/huey-lewis-and-the-news-new-song-her-love-is-killin-me-890589\/\">\u201cHer Love Is Killin\u2019 Me,\u201d<\/a> which was released in September and marked the band\u2019s first new song in more than 10 years. Huey Lewis and the News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/huey-lewis-and-the-news-new-album-781460\/\">announced their return<\/a> in January after inking a deal with BMG for <i>Weather<\/i>, their first LP of original songs since 2001\u2019s <i>Plan B<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Huey Lewis and the News recorded <i>Weather<\/i> at their Troutfarm Studio in Marin County, outside of San Francisco. The sessions however were ultimately cut short when Lewis was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/huey-lewis-talks-menieres-disease-it-can-get-better-it-just-hasnt-yet-629842\/\">diagnosed with M\u00e9ni\u00e8re\u2019s disease<\/a>, an ear condition that also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/huey-lewis-and-the-news-cancel-2018-shows-due-to-singers-hearing-loss-628736\/\">forced the band to cancel<\/a> a slew of tour dates and has kept Huey Lewis and the News off the road since.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Despite the diagnosis, Lewis has remained positive, saying in a press release, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to look on the bright side and stay creative. Even if I never sing again, things could always be worse.
