I agree, ryhog.

Also, as others have pointed out, "That's What Friends Are For" was not originally written as an anthem in support of people with AIDS, but as a song for the movie NIGHT SHIFT.

I never knew this, or maybe I had just forgotten, but I would say the original intent has a large bearing on how "treacly" the song is or isn't.
