@@estellacohen7122On my part, it's a 2021 Howard Hewett interview on the VladTV UA-cam channel that I've just been watching that reminded me of this great jam by Jody Watley. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 3rd March 2024.
She was first 'discovered' as a Soul Train dancer and then reappeared on that very same show (RIP & thank you Don Cornelius) as a lead member of the group Shalamar. 🕺🪩💃🙏✨
I love this song! When I hear that melody at the start, I can close my eyes and be immediately taken back to such good memories and happy times in the 80s. The way this video uses every 80s technique is awesome. The neon colors and color blocking, satin sheets, use of light and shadow, it's so great. Not forgetting Jody and her natural beauty. She sang about taking back her power back long before the wannabes of today.
When it comes on at Starbucks, we jam out! All the young kids always want it on the 80s station and they play this! Love me some Jody any day of the week!

@crow woman1 Guess what? You can't contour those type of cheekbones and the eyes come with the package. You can't tolerate someone giving another woman a compliment? Damn!
Jody was verrrry influential and isn’t given nearly enough credit. Her music and videos were fresh and new, and she ruled the charts with every single from 87-90.
Elsewhere on UA-cam, yesterday, 2nd March 2024, I saw a comment by a guy stating that "The 1980s should be made a tourist destination"🙂 Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 3rd March 2024.
This song was up against the holy trinity of music - Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, and Whitney Houston at the 1988 Sout Train Music Awards. That is truly a feat in itself - not many can say that 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The Arnie catchphrase she just made it sweeter in this top notch song and her earrings are massive how she do it but cool tho the same fashion fashion slick and styley 80s in a nutshell
The 80s were definitely a diverse decade of music for me. I could listen to this, then hop to Luther, thug it out with some NWA, break dance to some Curtis Blow, then jam to the Phil Collins and Cyndi Lauper and Pat Benatar all on the same mixed tape!! I just want it back!! BIG TEARS OF NOSTALGIA!!!😭😭😭😭😭
That's exactly how it was! Top 40 radio in the 80's had a diversity I haven't heard before or since. You could turn on the radio and hear R&B, funk, early hip-hop, new wave, punk and post-punk, hard rock, metal, 2nd wave ska, reggae, country rock, blues, folk, house, 50's and 60's revivalism, college rock, sophisticated pop like Sade, Latin freestyle, world music, and a lot more...all in the same programming block. I can't imagine turning on the radio today and hearing Jody Watley, Duran Duran, Sade, Eddy Grant, George Michael, and Janet Jackson back to back, but in the 80's that kind of thing happened all the time!
No!!! She wasn’t underrated. She was DaBomb!!! She got her Grammy, toured the globe and slayed!!! She did her thing and had an outstanding run during that era.
,,, is that the only thing you all know how to say is that somebody is underrated? Can you get a new line already that is literally all you people post and don't know what you're talkin about! Get a new word!!!!!!!!!

I remember running out and buying the cassette to this I jammed on this driving around Oahu all the time and I'm still jamming today even though I'm in Texas and 58 yrs old
Rotary dial phone at the beginning of the video. Omg. 😂 Talk about taking it back!! And I love that this showed up in my feed (Thanks, UA-cam algorithm!).
Hmm.. Beyonce. Luther. Michael. Diana. Teddy Pendergast. Patti LaBelle. Bobby Brown. Teddy Riley.. I can go on forever naming artists whose careers blew up after going solo.
Alas, it just never gets old---Watley delivers the sizzle, as well as the steak---with unmistakable style, verve and panache. With an always ready, pitch perfect voice, and the sassy, visual Nirvana to frame the lyrics, Jody is a 'Femme Fatale' that sets the trail ablaze, with electric moves that always deliver high voltage!
Miss Jody Watley gave us this monstrous HIT. She had her own STYLE. In 1987 in New York City FREESTYLE MUZIK was being heard on the AIRWAVES BUT Miss Jody Watley, Janet and Whitney gave us a different style. Listen to SHALAMAR and hear a young Jody Watley who isn't hardly mentioned as one of the best female vocalist of the MUSICAL EIGHTIES the BEST era for MUZIK of the 20th century...❤🎹🎼🎶🎵❤
JW just pretty all around, period. She could wear a Nia long, a Halle berry, damn.. she could do big hair, big curls, long straight, big afro, small afro or even shaved and that face still will look heavenly fine
2024 anyone?
There was a moment in time JODI WATLEY owned MTV. And I was there.
X k no
Me too
Yes I was there also!
MADONNA STOLE HER STYLE--lock, stock, and TWO smokin' barrels!
And so history was written
There should be hip 80s bars/clubs in major cities everywhere for us Gen Xers
Right I was n 84 but I have old soul.
Definitely! 😊
Head to a gay bar. That's where I heard this/saw the music video for the first time.
Yes!
With no smartphones allowed😉!
I never left the 80's. And I never apologize for it👏👏👏
Sorry not sorry
Me too 😊
The 80s maybe over, but I'm not over the 80s
How could you apologize for it? We had the best! 🎆
I'm right with ya. I can't stand this generation.

Jody Watley sure was a looker!
She still is.
She let us all know that her place in history was not to be undervalued. She earned every ounce of the mass appeal and stardom. Love you lots, Jody. 💗
Absolutely. And well said ! 😀

I agree back in the 80's she was all that. In 2023 she is still an Icon.

Yes, I love that intro
The Drummer deserves a mention u see glimpses just adds to class of Jody her Song and Video it's so classy
The intro is iconic - easily one of the most identifiable intros from the '80s.
Jody’s hoop earring game was STRONG!
I'm 43, and I still play this song everyday. Great song.

The camera fell in LOVE with this woman. One of the baddest female vocalists talents in that year!
The fashion, the jewelry, the tune...I was in such awe when I heard and saw Ms. Watley.
This was a huge hit on MTV back in the day. Awesome video!
This is my jam!!!!! The song might be over 30 years old but it never gets old. I love hearing it now just as much as when it came out 😃

One thing about Jody Watley that’s so beguiling is her eyes….. beautifully shaped, and just alluring.
The imagination, energy, and humor of this video is what made the 80’s video revolution so memorable!

TELL it Mo. 👏👏👏
Truth
I listen to all those artists too..80's was truly diverse for music! I miss it. Not much originality anymore.

😭😭😭nostalgia fr
Jody Watley was one of the most underrated artists of the 80s...and quite frankly all time. Truly talented and wonderful...thanks for the memories!
How was she underrated?
She was great in Shalamar in the 70s and early 80s too.
No!!! She wasn’t underrated.
She was DaBomb!!! She got her Grammy, toured the globe and slayed!!!
She did her thing and had an outstanding run during that era.
@@earlofthearies.1982at the time, Jody was criticized for "paper thin" vocals. This was right before Paula Abdul and autotune taking over.

Hello Kimberly
Glad you were inspired.
Hi Kimberly,hope you’re okay ?
Why can't music today be like this?
Good question
Social engineering of society
we have similarities but the retro sound won't come back completely due to probably less popularity these days
I knowww huh..
I wondering the same thing!
JAMMIN' INTO 2024 WITH JODY!! ❤
Me too

This song was definitely way ahead of its time. Jody= Queen 💋

That intro when the beat drops! Instant eargasm 😩❤️
Love when the music starts in this song! It's great.
Does not get old. Total ear Candy.
I’m here 2024 ❤ just saw her on Tamron Hall and she still 🔥
With a bad ass song an her name this song still plays 💯💯💃♥️
Hello Lara how are you doing today
She really had success after leaving Shalamar. She even won a Grammy. Not many artists were successful after leaving a group
Hmm.. Beyonce. Luther. Michael. Diana. Teddy Pendergast. Patti LaBelle. Bobby Brown. Teddy Riley.. I can go on forever naming artists whose careers blew up after going solo.
Alas, it just never gets old---Watley delivers the sizzle, as well as the steak---with unmistakable style, verve and panache. With an always ready, pitch perfect voice, and the sassy, visual Nirvana to frame the lyrics, Jody is a 'Femme Fatale' that sets the trail ablaze, with electric moves that always deliver high voltage!
Still love this song! She is amazing ❤️❤️
Hi Tara,hope you’re okay ?
My all time favorite singer! GRAMMY winning, Trendsetting Style Icon! This hit is a bonafied Classic! 🎤🔥🎶
I want My MTV BACK! F a bunch of 16 and pregnant go back to what brought you here MUSIC VIDEOS Damn I miss being young in the 80s
