Franklin Fuentes, more so... "The Stingers" were a trio on the cartoon, but in the MGS (NYC, NY) studio IRL it was a DUO: Gordon Grody, '70s disco singer (Rory's [Riot's} singing voice) who much later became Lady Gaga's voice coach, and the aforementioned late Vicki Sue Robinson, '70s "disco diva", who sang for BOTH Ingrid (Minx) AND Phoebe (Rapture) on the cartoon's MGS studio...
Franklin Fuentes, just a fan from THE VERY BEGINNING (was already a young adult then, not the demo the producers of the cartoon intended to have back then...).

I think they didn't do anymore sax because of the ugly faces they ended up drawing of her playing it. Ugly faces don't sell dolls, especially "bad guy" ones.
The Misfits lyrics were not capy and actually Christie Marx was behind the story, Hasbro create the shells but Christie and her team made Jeam who we get to know.

huh... I'm pleasantly shocked this sounds actually really good so what did good music stop being a part of Television especially for kids I mean Adventure Time Regular Show and Steven Universe are like the only ones that actually have music and more not trying to start an argument it's just a thought
rose novel I'm too young to really remember that I mean I was alive and it was showing but I was mostly watching ThunderCats a lot of shows that came out in the 90s kind of had like a lot of music towards kids and young adults and I still like that little songs to right now similar to Phineas and Ferb
bezoticallyyours83 true that I nearly forgot Phineas and Ferb it's sad though I'm really trying to think of other shows I maybe miss that integrates music so heavily in their shows happy to say I did like the Gravity Falls opening how long wait star vs. the forces of evil
Kimber actually god a spotlight episode where she formed a duo with Stormer. Some pretty decent material for the character. Otherwise the "Holograms" were forgettable characters.
The only way to explain all the fabulous outfits, bright colors, and campy lyrics is that this show was designed by the most amazing gay men ever. I really wanna see a Jem drag show!!!
"that this show was designed by the most amazing gay men ever" Men? Jem''s creator and main screenwriter was a woman: Christy Marx.

❤I hate the way they ruined Jetta, she went from being a tough, strong, independent woman who didn't care what others said to being a mythomaniac person worried about the pizza approval just because she's rich.
It would be nice if they remade this with hd quailty same characters and dressed them 2021 style and makeup how females in 2021 wear and it would also be nice if she could get permission from megan thee stallion and sing ima savage

@@casiopiasmithday You got that right maybe we can do a petition and get a soundtrack for this with Misfits, Stinger and Jem songs
@killerdancefloor76 I think it's been long enough i know that they can at least release the songs for this show.
Totally agree!!
I agree both jem and the misfits have some dame good tracks. I always said that they should have an album with full version of the songs.
Roxy: Well I say she gets lost!
Jetta: Oh yeah, well I say I'm gonna CLEAN YOUR CLOCK!!!!!
Lol
She said 'I oughta clean your clog.' I.e. give a good punch.
I thought that it was cute how Stormer said that she loved her accent. Poor Roxie was looking for backup, from Stormer, but she didn't get it.
@@JustAnotherPerson4U The saying is, "Clean your clock," not "clog." The origin is unknown, but it's possible that since a clock has a face, it implies punching someone in the face. In London slang, a "clock" is a "face."
This is the best song the song writers composed. It is lively and sexy.
Yes this is awesome
"Think you can keep up with US?"
"Depends on whether or not YOU can keep up with ME!!"
(They then proceed to play a mellow down-tempo song anyone could keep up with.)
lol
I think they really meant rhythm.
i think she was referring to the chords and key, it's a weird sound that they start out with and jetta jumps right in like its nothing.
@@phoenix.maximus Or referring to the fact they'd not had a sax player in the group before so new instrument.
I actually really love this song, Jem or not. Wish there was a longer (3 minutes+) full song!
Yup
I feel that of all the songs in the series this is where you really feel that vibrant 80's vibe
SWEET LORD!!!
I found this by accident, i never knew this "Jem" cartoon, and this song and animation is FUCKING FANTASTIC!!!!!
0:46 - Whoa, buddy, this is a kid's show! XD
Yup
And his date was sitting right next to him! What a jerk!
I always loved the misfits
Yes, same here I love stormer the most
It's my favorite song of the group
I think this Brit addition was brilliant!! The Misfits rocked!!
00:36 kills me everytime
"I know you are versatile"
🌚
Wink wink, nudge nudge.
I rather the Mistfits and their songs than Jem.
RavenHyper RIGHT ON!
THOUGH, JEM'S SONGS ARE FOR THE LOVELORN..
THE MISFITS SONGS ARE MORE REAL, HOT, DIRTY (IN THE BEST WAY).
& THEY ALL HAVE AWESOME DRIVING BEATS.
I LIVE FOR THE HOT BACKBEAT STYLE HERE!!
ONE OF THE MISFITS FUNKIEST, BY FAR.
& NOT TO MENTION THAT THE MISFITS BACKING HARMONIES EAT JEM'S TUNES ALIVE!!
HERE'S A VERY COOL FACT..
DID YOU KNOW THAT UBER LEGENDARY DISCO SINGER VICKI SUE ROBINSON; 'TURN THE BEAT AROUND', VOICED THE STINGER'S MINX'/ RAPTURE'S SINGING VOICE? TRUE!
Franklin Fuentes, more so... "The Stingers" were a trio on the cartoon, but in the MGS (NYC, NY) studio IRL it was a DUO:
Gordon Grody, '70s disco singer (Rory's [Riot's} singing voice) who much later became Lady Gaga's voice coach, and the aforementioned late Vicki Sue Robinson, '70s "disco diva", who sang for BOTH Ingrid (Minx) AND Phoebe (Rapture) on the cartoon's MGS studio...
syxepop THAT'S WHAT I MEANT TO WRITE.
YOU SURE DO KNOW ALLOT OF THIS..
R U A FAN, OR WERE U INVOLVED IN THIS SHOWS' PRODUCTION?
Franklin Fuentes, just a fan from THE VERY BEGINNING (was already a young adult then, not the demo the producers of the cartoon intended to have back then...).
There are many bits from the cartoon (like IRL influences and the sort) that either I've figured out from the start or through the years (figuring out from the IRL music biz). Others you just simply read on YT comments like this (yes, it have been a HUGE SOURCE for fans of all types).
syxepop a-greed! ;)
I love Stormer's outfit! Hell's bells, I think I'd wear something like tgat today
I did have, high hopes, for Jetta; as a saxophonist.
Pretty sure, that, this was the only time, that she played her sax?
Btw, I still think, that Clash, should've been allowed into the misfits?
She had an instrument; her cymbals-bracelets. ;)
+Franklin Fuentes I think the only other songs that have sax were "Free and Easy" and "Trapped"
+MyLittleDiscolite i disagree, i loved clash!
+XNyanko but, was jetta the one playing the sax there?
Actually, I think there's a whole song centerd around her sax
I think they didn't do anymore sax because of the ugly faces they ended up drawing of her playing it. Ugly faces don't sell dolls, especially "bad guy" ones.
i going to clean your clock! - Jetta
hahahahaha at first i was like "c'mon man this is a kids cartoon" but that is exactly what it sounds like she says.
Love this episode 👍
Misfits always be better than Jem and the Holograms !!!
You got that right The Misfits have better songs and outfits
Yes, I love Stormer the most
1:28 " you play a wicked sex!" dead XD
☻
You go, Jetta!
JETTA'S OUTFIT, HAIR..
ACTUALLY, HER ENTIRE LOOK/ STYLE IS A DIRECT BITE FROM ROCK GROUP KISS' LEAD GUITARIST, ACE FREHLEY'S LOOK/ STYLE.
"Think you can take me?"
"In a fight right?"
This was a great cartoon and way ahead of it's time with the animation. Amy Winehouse would've been a great Jetta!
Bobby Brown no
"Free and Easy" has a pretty good Sax start off too.
Well, finally! Have been looking for a song about flip-flopping for quite a while
Kmsl
I love listening to the backing vocals and beats amazing
This Song is Slappin
i can't get this song out of my head either lol
I practically grew looking at this everyday I was out of school for the summer.
This song is awesome
"You play a wicked sex!"
I lost.
Their hair!! So much hair!!
All the hair.
Jetta's sax looks like something Anubis would play if he was a saxophonist.
Despite despising Jem,I really liked Misfits
I really believe Roxy can take on anybody, even Pizzazz. I 💕 them both. Make Clash a Misfit.
The Misfits lyrics were not capy and actually Christie Marx was behind the story, Hasbro create the shells but Christie and her team made Jeam who we get to know.
You go Misfits
This is Awesome

I agree with Stormer
Stormer is the nicest one in the whole show.
Jetta also plays saxophone in Free and Easy.
VraieEsprit, and "Trapped" (from the now demolished Houston Astrodome) later on, among probably a few more places our Pop People could state...
Im a misfit in my head. LOL!
Who’s playing the drums? Also let’s give it up foe Roxy and that bass!
Cool video 😎
I
May Pizzazz's VA be missed😢
Stormer started off being like the other gals she mellowed out after hanging out with Kimber and her brother confronted her on how she really is he told her your not like the other girls in the group
I still love you, Stormer =)
I like Jetta
I love your style Pizzazz and Roxy.

No. Have you heard "we are 138" by the Misfits?

Also another fact left out. No scene of Rio first meeting Jem. Soo much in these "stories" untold.
What season and episode? I can't remember.
pretty sure it's the first ep in season two
Dirty Reference Yes, it's the first episode of season 2. 😃
Ah, ah! Jetta se le girano sono cavoli! XD
Too bad Clash wasn,t accepted as a Misfit. Here comes Jetta who betrayed them in Britrock episode.

What is her accent suppose to be??
London, England.
Thanks :) I ended up looking up her character to see. Nonetheless thanks for replying :)
storyseeker2000 i thought it was Australian. lol
Please tell me Jetta is going to be in the movie and a possible english actress that could play her
She's already in one scene post-credits and is played by a Mexican actress.

@1:00 Getting Crap Past the Radar
Those guys Soo dazzled by Pizzazz singing. I think Roxy can beat Jetta. Roxy courageous.
Yep Clash should of been the 5th Missfit since Jem and Hollograms finaly had 5 gals in the Group the Missfits could of been a even Number
"Yep Clash should of been the 5th Missfit since "
While I like Clash, If I remember correctly she is the only major female character who can neither sing, nor play music. Somewhat unsurprising that the Misfits do not allow her to join the band. She was also described as tone-deaf.
I,m sure Roxy will win.
I stand with Roxy; Jetta was overrated and obnoxious.
The Misfits had much MUCH better songs than this... "teenagers from Mars", "last caress", "we are 138"...
