O-o-o-h!... Those spandex tights Jody Watley & Karen White wore belong in the SNIFF'Sonian MUSE'See'Em!!!😤👃🏽👀... Right next to Janet Jackson's "Pleasure Principle" tights!!!...👍🏿👌🏽👍🏽👌🏼 I used to fantasize that they were fighting over me!🤭
This jam was on Birmingham Alabama's WENN 107.7 back in spring 1987 is still a thrill Did I mention how beautiful Jody still looks on Jennifer Hudson show
This is pure fire 🔥 But the long form extended video of this song is ironically the SH*T! Ms. Watley and Tyrone "The Bone" Proctor threw TF down FR.💖 May he rest in peace. Class=Talent=SEXINESS!😎💖💪👍
Bonus Baby yeah and I know it was produced by David Z and Wendy plays guitar on it, but if you listen closely there are so many elements taken directly from official Prince tracks on the recording and the guitar licks sound so similar to kiss and nothing Cymon has ever recorded sounded anything like this. It’s just way way way too similar to prince. I would bet this is another Prince gift.
@@captainmorgan5449 - Prince has done stuff for other Artists that we had no Clue he wrote or Produced. This is just another example. Now tell me another Song that Andre has done that is this Funny 🤔?..... I'll be waiting.
@@foodforthought872 Hey...I am just stating what has been documented and rumored. You may well be right. Prince wrote a lot of music. I don't know Andre cymone personally or the limit of his musical prowess. Anyway... judging what is funky is subjective. Some folks may think Andre Cymone's (Surviving in the 80's) is funkier than the Dance Electric...I don't believe that but I can't force anyone to believe it. Stay safe out there....
That is an insightful comparison. I have always just chalked up her vocals the fact she was doing an Andre Cymore recording just like he sang it for her.
Detroitblue, they had written this song with this intention of Jody and Grace, duetting on it. Hence the reason why Jody song’s part of it, in that lower register.
Oh okay. How do you know this? It just seems so hard to believe anyone would think a duet with Grace is a good idea in America . Grace is a niche performer, an iconic personality but not really a hot commodity. I will look for the connection of these two ladies, I just never imagined such.
Detroitblue, she said so in an interview years ago. Why is it so hard to believe? Grace is one of the people she admired. Why wouldn’t that be one of her dreams? Keep in mind, nothing ever came of it. Just a great song.
I can only tell you it is news to me. I follow music and I followed Jody's career pretty closely and have listened to many interviews. Also was also intrigued by Grace Jones since from way back when she took that Iconic photo shoot with brother. You know the one where they were standing naked face to face looking like mirror images of each other except for his big dangling dick. Speaking of Grace, I was the first person in my circle to rock that acclaimed Slave to the Rhythm LP. One last thought on Jody. I always thought it was a mistake when she started pushing for respect as a serious vocalist instead of a Dance Diva. She really was not a great singer but neither was Madonna or Janet Jackson. I wish she would have just pushed further to be that dance diva kind of an Icon.
Seriously?? You think vocally Jody could match Whitney? Lets not be delusional. Whitney is in a league all by herself vocally. I adore Jody. But to put her against Whitney is sacrilegious.
Dude Andre Cymone is the Prince that got away. They were forged from the same thing and both play multiple instruments. It is not Prince you hear it is Andre being Andre. But Dance Electric is this song on steroids.
@@Detroitblue OMG I was just leaving a message for someone else saying the exact same thing you said. People don't understand that Andre and Prince created the Minneapolis sound. They were the ones competing against each other when they lived together! And you're right everything Prince would do Andre could do! I never understood why Andre never got his shine like he was supposed to get. He would be the man to go to now for music. All the producers and arrangers should look up to him since Prince is gone♥️👍
It's 2020 and this song is still a thrill.
Still a Thrill in 2021! 🔥
Back when they made GOOD remixes!!!!
Agree. Not only good 12", extended versions, but excellent music videos. Millions of people have said it, but I will say it anyway. I MISS THE 80'S!!!
High school memories at its finest ❤️🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 88-91
my favorite jody cut.
Jody Whatly at her best.
Love her.
2021 and going strong 💪😌
This is some Minneapolis Groove with her voice. Maannn.
This was the best song that has ever been made, in my opinion
It's up there om my list as well

Of course,Jody you’re still a thrill
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
her best along with the awesome video
Man! Havent heard this version in forever. Got so use to the edited version on the remix album.
Still a thrill
This is a ANDRE CYMONE extended version
This song is 🔥
This is a Prince track. I do t care what anybody says. This has his claw marks all over it.
@Zaqwsx Zaqwsx...that's because it was co-written by Andre Cymone who was a member of Prince's Revolution for a few years before going solo.
Bonus Baby yeah and I know it was produced by David Z and Wendy plays guitar on it, but if you listen closely there are so many elements taken directly from official Prince tracks on the recording and the guitar licks sound so similar to kiss and nothing Cymon has ever recorded sounded anything like this.

This does like it has more Prince involvement than we're led to believe
Orlondo Ruth absolutely. There are many unique elements straight out of other Prince tracks from this era. Instrumental and production wise.
Clearly influenced by Prince...nothing wrong with that at all!
dis still hot
Superb
Andre' Cymone on and at his finest
Ok, I enjoy Andre and everyone is saying that He (NOT) Prince produced this. Now shows me some OTHER SONGS that Andre produced that are this FUNKY!
Jody herself stated Andre Cymone wrote the song. Rumor has it that Wendy played the guitar on this song....

Thank you...
Funkaay!! My girl
Great!
Ahead Of Her Time...Her Rendition Of The Iconic Grace Jones!

DAMNNNN
Jody is and always will be the best only Sade and Whitney Houston can match up to her
Seriously?? You think vocally Jody could match Whitney? Lets not be delusional. Whitney is in a league all by herself vocally. I adore Jody. But to put her against Whitney is sacrilegious.
Everybody had their own lane. Enough room to love them all!
where are my keys?
that arrangement sounds too much like a Prince song, I think that Andre stole it from him especially those harmonies and the beat.
Absolutely. They can deny it all they want, but this track screams Prince and his production
True its got that purple dust all ovet it
