@113mckinley: "If This Is It" is a very popular hit song by the American rock band Huey Lewis and the News, a staple of 1980s pop-rock. It served as the fourth single released from their breakthrough, multi-platinum album, Sports (1983), and was released in July #1984. The #song was a major success, climbing to #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States. Lyrically, the track is a melancholic and emotional reflection on a relationship facing its inevitable end. The narrator is frustrated because his partner is avoiding the necessary conversation, prompting him to ask for closure with the central plea, "If this is it, then let me know." Musically, the song distinguishes itself with a sunny, mid-tempo feel, driven by a memorable 12/8 shuffle rhythm. The song’s popularity was significantly boosted by its humorous and widely played #MTV music video, which showed Huey Lewis attempting to reconcile with his ex-girlfriend at a crowded #beach and boardwalk.
