Yea it was a weird trend in the 90s to have some random models and dancers front for the people actually doing the music. Even here with Ya Kid K singing I still don't see Jo Bogaert who basically is Technotronic itself anywhere on the stage.
@@adrammelech6323 To be fair, it wasn't a "random" model. That's who they picked to be on the cover and in the video. Singer did her job and dancer hers. The singer did not want to be in the video or on the cover, that's why they had to get a model.
IDIOT DUDES IN A&R, i've been telling people for years this song can come out anny year and it's be a smash and also her look would murder in any era 60s and up
She was in the official video back in 1990. She looked like a boy with a cap flipped on her head. She looked like 17 years old. I can not find that original video no more.
This just shows you can do this music without backing tracks. I get sick of the argument that singers that dance need them. No you don't. Stop lip syncing, people! Cheers to her for doing it the right way.
Her style (fashion, voice, music) was ahead of her time, like 30 years. Now she would perfectly fit in the industry. Also, 070 Shake is very similar to her. Kind of androgynous, great voice and very stylish.
I used to trash this as "mainstream." Now, I realize: 1) This Sista was among those leads who really could sang! 2) The live act was pumpin' (no pun intended). 3) As someone said, her aura was ahead of her time. And 4) They went on Arsenio and slayed it!
Funny thing, when I was a kid she lived right across the street from me on 9th Ave in Mount Vernon, NY…we were kids and she was much older than us and she was always on the go super focused….in the late 80’s early 90’s she was my neighbor then she just disappeared…different ppl took over that house
She was from Zaire, came to Belgium when she was 11 and grew up and later lived in Chigago for a short time before she came back to Belgium (where she later joined Technotronic at the age of 15)... so, when was she living in NY?
@@thastarryone When she did her music she was based here in New York and took the train to manhattan….I was a kid I wanna say the years were between 88/89-1992 then she just disappeared CAN’T MAKE THIS SHIT UP(she lived on my block across the street 9th avenue) Mount Vernon, NY at this time was a melting pot of talent and on top of the music scene it was a mini Atlanta before Atlanta….besides Denzel Washington and Dick Clark…Music wise on the Music scene you had Heavy D & The Boyz, AL B. Sure!, “P. Diddy/Puff Daddy”(no judgements), DMX, Pete Rock and CL smooth, Jeff Redd and etc etc…were all from Moneyearnin’ Mount Vernon IT WAS A HOT SPOT…i don’t know why i feel like you’re challenging my comment…IT’S NOT UP FOR DEBATE HOMIE she lived on my block its a big part of my childhood memories it was crazy.

Yes. This is Ya Kid K she was the real singer, she hadn’t signed to the record label at the time of the release so they used a different girl for the official music video.
OMG. So hot 🔥!! I was so OBSESSED with this band!! And back then in '89-90, it was literally impossible to find ANYTHING out about a band or a movie. And I'm not kidding. Those days were just awful before information sharing. At least for these subjects at least.
God damnnnnnn such a classic, the beat is just irresistible. If this doesn't make you wanna dance any type of way you're such a disgrace to the world lol 😂
Ya-Kid-Kay nos vocais! A moça do clip famoso é uma modelo contratada para tornar o clip mais "comercial". Uma sacanagem comum na música eletrônica dos anos 90. A cantora fica escondida, e nos shows, muitas bandas usavam playback. Fraude. Viva Ya-Kid-Kay.
It was no joke to performin back in the days no back up wit the actual songs voice just u straight performing u can't run out of breath lol song is fire tho love (Ya kid k) ...she a legend
@@gorgeous6737 ... I can't teach you how to read online just do it slowly go..........word....... For....... Word.... Be patient You'll understand what i wrote if you sound it out okay I believe in you baby😘👍💯😂😂😂
Am I the only person who is enraged that the actual artist/singer was not portrayed as the singer in the video??? Were the 90s still that bad for artists? And the real singer is beyond gorgeous.
A Manuela Bárbara foi a primeira cantora, mas no início contrataram uma modelo para dublá-la, pois o empresário dela não gostava de sua aparência e achava que não chamaria a atenção.
And she's actually singing it live!! She sounds so good.
and she is pretty too
I don't know why she wasn't in the official Pump Up The Jam video.
I was thinking the same.
@@fomalhauto she was a minor at the time
For the past 30 years, I thought the vocal was a male teen, until today.
@@fomalhautoencantadora y carismática.
Her style on the stage was ahead of time
yes, but i would say it's also just timeless at this point
I wouldn't say ahead of her time. She was of her time
Not even a little bit.
You know an artist is talented when the live hits harder than the studio version!
Although her vocals do drift a little sharp at times - but then that's live music for you!
She has so much bleeding charisma and stage presence. She really shoulda been the one in the music video, yknow, the actual girl singing the song.
Yea it was a weird trend in the 90s to have some random models and dancers front for the people actually doing the music. Even here with Ya Kid K singing I still don't see Jo Bogaert who basically is Technotronic itself anywhere on the stage.
Even weirdest is nowadays, we have the random models and dancers actually doing the music instead of the people who'd know how to do it
Era menor de edad por obvias razones no le hizo
Couldn’t agree more.

this woman is a great singer , with a good voice
100%!
Is she?
@@blktenoryes she is
Ya kid K! She was such a cutie. Why they didn't use her in the official music video is beyond me.
it was because she wasn't signed to the label that produced the video at that point. she was trying to work out a better deal.
IDIOT DUDES IN A&R, i've been telling people for years this song can come out anny year and it's be a smash and also her look would murder in any era 60s and up
Она стократ лучше той модели, что мы помним по клипу
She was in the official video back in 1990.
She looked like a boy with a cap flipped on her head.
She looked like 17 years old.
I can not find that original video no more.
Dang, she sounds awesome live and love her vibes!!!
amazing how this still kills it after all this time. such simple lyrics...but such amazing energy.
Bruh she blessed us... like there are no words to describe the culture and infinite grove she gave us . we give thanks
This just shows you can do this music without backing tracks. I get sick of the argument that singers that dance need them. No you don't. Stop lip syncing, people! Cheers to her for doing it the right way.
This is HISTORY OF MUSIC
Wow!! Her voice!! Love her!! She sings, sounds absolutely great live as well. 🤘🏼🎚️💃🏽
Her style (fashion, voice, music) was ahead of her time, like 30 years. Now she would perfectly fit in the industry. Also, 070 Shake is very similar to her. Kind of androgynous, great voice and very stylish.
Horrible
Music was not hers tho, music was written by Belgian guy Jo Bogaert and he invited Manuela to write the lyrics and sing for the track.
aint nobody wearing those MC hammer style clothes right now. Its all skinny tight stuff.
@@nujxad wrong. a lot of the most fashionable clothing in nyc/paris/london is baggy. 96-2001 fashion is coming back.
Isn’t it choreographers that deal with the fashion and such?

Ya Kid K has a beautiful face. Don't know why they decided to use a model and lipsync when they first released the album.
Amo a voz dela ❤
Wow!! incredible dancers. what a workout. made my day!
Packed up my apartment to this song. Really helped make a move
Wow tremenda voz y aprte era miy bella ❤

Le commencement de tout cette chanson a vraiment révolutionné la musique !
Bad ass beat, Bad ass singing, Bad ass Dancing.
30+ year later the industry is still up to its all antics. J.Ló anywhere?
She was so effortlessly cool, and was such a girl crush of my 13 year old self.
And nowadays these new wanna be rappers wish have a voice like her 👏👏👏
They are THE best 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
I always thought the singing part was just recorded 🤯
Why is everyone saying she should have been in the video? She’s the only one I’ve ever seen in the video.
Those suits you all. Very Very 1989 AD. Solid track, solid live, Frankie Knuckles approves rip 🎉❤
The dancers are amazing
