    My father went to the state's during the 80s and 90s and bought a cassette and a Vinil of this great singer, when I was a kid it was so natural for me to listen to her and whitin the years I notice that I am the only one in Chile (South America) who has those jewels of album and it's a golden treasure in my collection from the 80s, and I must confess that she is so cute as well, what a great girl! Sorry for my English, I hope you could understand my point, greetings 😊

    Rebecca was just a nice ordinary girl that happened to win a competition that thrust her into the spotlight. Had she written and produced that song I'm sure she'd be deserving of more positive opinions. Candi and her team worked hard to get where they were.
    And really, when it comes down to it - anyone who rises above the ordinary deserves more respect, and fewer dislikes. :-)

    When I was a little kid my auntie claimed that she wrote the lyrics for this song and never got paid or received credit.

    Had I known back in the 80's you were going to be listening to this in 2013 I would have purchased a better VCR with HiFi sound and recorded it at the highest possible speed for better quality just for you. Your highness.
    I shall not delete your comment, so that others may share in the joy of your expressed attitude. :-)
    Thanks for commenting just the same though. :-)

    Very cute, and great singer too. Glad some of her music videos survived. Thanks for the comments.
