"Lonely Room" by Kris Ryder a.k.a. Chris Andrews

This wouldn’t be the first song about breaking out of a lonely room, but Chris Andrews a.k.a. Kris Ryder put a funky synthpop spark into the theme, joined by guitarist Phil Palmer (Eric Clapton, Dire Straits, Wishbone Ash), bass legend Mo Foster, and synthesizer work from the late Billy Lyall (Bay City Rollers, Alan Parson’s Project, Pilot). Released in 1979, the Kris Ryder debut LP foretold the sounds of the 80s, mixing classic rock, New Wave, and synthpop. It was produced by Christopher Neil (a-ha, Sheena Easton). On a cosmic jukebox this would play somewhere between The Cars and Christopher Cross. Listen here:
