First of all it is catchy. Secondly how does it sound like a satire of the 80s. When I first this I thought it was an 80s song that I'd somehow missed.
Rodrigo Santos omg me too! I didn't know who sung it or what it was called or even any of the lyrics or the tune. I just remembered the video clip concept. I remembered it was in space, was purple, had a retro grid, and she was infront of a pyramid (was actually a triangle but that's close enough XD) and I hadn't heard the song or seen the song since 2010. A month of searching yielded no results and I thought I would never find this song which saddened me. Meanwhile I download sweet about me on Apple Music and decide to check out her album and the title of this song stands out for a reason I didn't know why, and within 19 seconds I was 95% sure this was the song and when I saw the thumbnail on UA-cam I knew it was it. Legit best thing to happen to me today XD! But in all seriousness, it surprises me that after 7 years I remembered tiny details like that and was able to remember the video clip but not the song XD

I remember loving this song when it came out and I was around 6 or 7. Now 13 years later I suddenly remembered loving this song as a kid... problem was, I could not remember for the life of me who the artist was or what the song was called. But for some reason I remember this video so damn vividly. Finally after 3 hours of scavenging around the internet I found this song again, never felt so good in my whole life
Those harmonies after 2:41 are stunning! The little echo after each phrase, the ABBA-esque sort of "choir" quality. Wish the song had included more of THAT.
+Justin Time Oh I disagree. The last hundred years of popular music has demonstrated that beautiful, rich harmonies can definitely bear repeating. And if a composer/arranger is clever with the voicing of those harmonies, you can still get a nice crescendo at the end.
This clip is really one of the best ever made. The disco sounds goes perfectly with the '60s futuristic scenery. The clip is heavily inspired by the 1968 SciFi Barbarella and anyone claiming this is '80s retro doesn't know what he's talking about.
I loved this song when I was in year 9 because of the beat but now listening to this as a 23 year old Registered Midwife moving to a rural hospital to pursue my career, fresh out of a relationship, I feel so empowered!
I spend perhaps 10 years since i heard this song in a show, untill find it and i fell in love with Gabriela and made one of my favorite songs ever. The rythm, energy, voice, look is fabulous. Thank you Gabriela regards from México 🇲🇽
I like this song. Well done Cilmi. On A Mission to make a sample of the 1983 Joe Jackson smash hit called "Stepping Out." Well done Gabriella Cilmi!!!!1 For her song called "Woman On A Mission."!!!!!!
So at 5:20am after sitting on my bed for a few hours on 25/6/19, the lyric "I am a woman on a mission" came into my mind and I said "ahh I know this song but don't know who it is" A month a half later I decided to search it on UA-cam. Lmao. 22/8/19
She is HOTTTT!!!! and no she is not ripping off Amy Winehouse sound youngins. Amy ripped off a sound from the 1960's singer Jocelyn Alice and a few others from that time period. Sooooooo there take that and smoke it in your peace pipes.
It is time for me to make a move And I know what I got to do 'Cause I got everything to prove I got a plan I'm sticking to The word is out all over town But I don't let it get me down I ain't nobody's push around If they could only see me now There's only one thing on my mind And I am running out of time I'm coming through, so get out of the way I am a woman on a mission, whoa Nothing can stop me, I'm stronger than ever I wanna see this through I am a woman on a mission, whoa Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do I'm gonna lay it on the line I won't give up without a fight 'Cause I can see the finish line Won't stop until I make you mine So read the writing on the wall I'm ready here and I'm standing tall So people think they know it all I guess I'll have to show them all There's only one thing on my mind And I'm running out of time I'm coming through, so get out of the way I am a woman on a mission, whoa Nothing can stop me, I'm stronger than ever I wanna see this through I am a woman on a mission, whoa Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do Stand aside 'cause I'm on a mission I'm on fire with no competition You can't blame me I got intuition And I never miss a trick just like a magician Don't need cash, don't need permission Think I'm scared, you must be tripping Full on gas, key in ignition Can't stop now 'cause I'm on a mission I am a woman on a mission, whoa Nothing can stop me, I'm stronger than ever I wanna see this through I am a woman on a mission, whoa Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do I'll never give up, I'll never give up I'll never give up, I'm on a mission I'll never give up, I'll never give up I'm gonna see this through I'll never give up, I'll never give up I'll never give up, I'm on a mission Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do
first I heard Gabriella Cilmi, it was her single 'Sweet Aboutr Me' - and I thaught she was a copy of Amy Winehouse... I changed my mind when I heard 'On a Mission'; she's got a very womanly voice (Sweet About Me, Sanctuary) and still rocks even an up-beat song like this :)
For those who question where Cilmi has been.....she's indie now. She released her 3rd album, 'The Sting' in 2013. Of course, it didn't get much notice because it's indie. A decent record it was. Some musicians don't need to be on the charts, it's not all about that, despite what you hear. If you bother keeping up with good music, then you wouldn't have to ask where or why.
+Johnny Trash Completely agree. I love her song "Sweet About Me", it suits her vocals style so much better. This sounds Bonnie Tyler in the early 80's.
This just randomly popped into my head after over a decade
If this came out in the 80s, it would have been instant classic, we'd have known it all our lives. Gabriella

ua-cam.com/video/dsDTEB9lZuc/v-deo.html new song by Gabriella 😊👈🏻
It's built around a sample of 1983's "Stepping Out" by Joe Jackson, hence the 80s sound. The original still sounds good!
This is trash. Horrible production. Sounds like a bad 80s Saturday cartoon theme song
It's too new for the 80s
This song needs justice because this should be a HIT
I'm a metalhead and heard this song the last time over 10 years ago. Listen to it right now and still love it, such a banger!
In 2024 and I still think this would have won Eurovision
It sounds so 80's...
The start sounds like Steppin' Out, Joe Jackson which is from the 80's. :D
@@mrsun3587 That's what it reminded me of!!! Thank you!
underrated song
This has massive potential to be a viral song on TikTok.
Make a trick
Such an amazing video & song.
Should have been a worldwide #1.
I forgot about this song for 14 years just to sing it this morning like it was released yesterday
My god, she's so beautiful
today, from nowhere, I remembered of this. *OMG* I used to be so obsessed with this song.
2017 and I'm still here
ME TOO
Rodrigo Santos me as well

that's known as a crescendo and meant to invoke feelings like you had. sounds great, but if you put it through an entire song it loses its power

This song is always stuck in my head for no reason
She is a very beautiful and talented entertainer. I think she did not get the praise she deserves
I'm setting this song as my morning alarm.
I never get up, I never get up, I never get up I'm on a dream
this girl can sing why haven't we haven't heard from her in a while I liked her songs and that amazing voice
Боже мой 😍! Это рай для ушей и глаз💥 😃💫
Хочется наслаждаться просмотром хореографии ещё и ещё ✌️🥰
Yeay love this song glad I found it again

Where you been
Timeless beauty ...this could easily be a 60s banger to a 90s classic rock bop....would fit into almost any decade/niche/generation lol
I loved this song when I was in year 9 because of the beat but now listening to this as a 23 year old Registered Midwife moving to a rural hospital to pursue my career, fresh out of a relationship, I feel so empowered!
You need a man.
i've watched this song about 10 times in a row and couldn't tell you a single word.....her hotness has melted my mind.
GABRIELA! You are still the world most beautiful artist!!!❤!!!
Gabriella ROCKS!!

Hi, me too.

They only want women with auto tune voices.. dua lipa, Jess Glynne they can all sing but they all sound the same- they all sound robotic
Yes!!! This is why I don’t like them much, I can’t stand their voices as they sound so auto tuned.
I don't think Gabby liked the idea of been recognised everywhere she went!
Holy shit I love this song so much. I love how versatile of an artist and ententainer she is. Anything she does I just love it!
In a word Gabriella is, Stunning
3 cose veramente stupende, lei la canzone e' il video:) 2009:*
Anyone else watching in 2020?
*yeap lol )*
Meeee 😊🤩
WHAT HAPPENED TO HER- WE ALL WANT MORE FROM HER 4/2020
me yeeeeeessssss
Just saw a psychobilly band's cover of Sweet About Me and curiosity got me here today. So, yes :)
I'm here because Sophie Turner who plays Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones mentioned this song would serve as a theme song for both Sansa and Arya Stark.
Same exact reason i'm here.
same here !! but i hear it before...just couldnt remember!!
FakeAnarchist in which interview tho?
This was a bop in 2010 and it's a bop in 2020.
Love her she got her own sound!
Bellissima Gabriella

I LOVE THIS SONGG!!! I WAS ON UA-cam FOR HOURS SEARCHING FOR THIS SONG!!!!
I like this song. Well done Cilmi. On A Mission to make a sample of the 1983 Joe Jackson smash hit called "Stepping Out." Well done Gabriella Cilmi!!!!1 For her song called "Woman On A Mission."!!!!!!
mi ricorda quell'anno per me magico
Surprisingly good. Didn't have any special expectations and just wanted to try it out. Had missed in in the past. Liked it a lot.
So at 5:20am after sitting on my bed for a few hours on 25/6/19, the lyric "I am a woman on a mission" came into my mind and I said "ahh I know this song but don't know who it is" A month a half later I decided to search it on UA-cam. Lmao. 22/8/19
The strenght of this woman is fantastic!
Such a great song and video, for some reason I imagine it's a little underrated.
This song helps bad thoughts get out of my mind and brings back good memories! Love it ♥♥
This brings back memories... ;')
I miss her so much 😢😢
Gabriela is Awesome, I heard it about 3 yrs ago while I was in Serbia,she's a very good artist !
Imagine if this came out in the 2020's she'd be still making music!!
2019 anyone?
No
I
Me !!!

Man!, I thought I was the only one who thought this Tune sounds 80's!
This lady is my friends god mother she slays
love this, seen her live and shes so good :)
It is time for me to make a move
And I know what I got to do
'Cause I got everything to prove
I got a plan I'm sticking to
The word is out all over town
But I don't let it get me down
I ain't nobody's push around
If they could only see me now
There's only one thing on my mind
And I am running out of time
I'm coming through, so get out of the way
I am a woman on a mission, whoa
Nothing can stop me, I'm stronger than ever
I wanna see this through
I am a woman on a mission, whoa
Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do
I'm gonna lay it on the line
I won't give up without a fight
'Cause I can see the finish line
Won't stop until I make you mine
So read the writing on the wall
I'm ready here and I'm standing tall
So people think they know it all
I guess I'll have to show them all
There's only one thing on my mind
And I'm running out of time
I'm coming through, so get out of the way
I am a woman on a mission, whoa
Nothing can stop me, I'm stronger than ever
I wanna see this through
I am a woman on a mission, whoa
Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do
Stand aside 'cause I'm on a mission
I'm on fire with no competition
You can't blame me I got intuition
And I never miss a trick just like a magician
Don't need cash, don't need permission
Think I'm scared, you must be tripping
Full on gas, key in ignition
Can't stop now 'cause I'm on a mission
I am a woman on a mission, whoa
Nothing can stop me, I'm stronger than ever
I wanna see this through
I am a woman on a mission, whoa
Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do
I'll never give up, I'll never give up
I'll never give up, I'm on a mission
I'll never give up, I'll never give up
I'm gonna see this through
I'll never give up, I'll never give up
I'll never give up, I'm on a mission
Whatever it takes, I will do what I gotta do
Oh my, I still love this Song in 2021. Also so much awesome motions in the clip. Cant get enough since 2010.

The movie Drive me to the end brought me here. Amazing movie and song.
Was OBSESSED with this in year 7
I remember when this song came out I heard it on MTV an it was my JAM! and my friends bullied me for that .... yes, I'm a boy :3
Wikipedia must be lying! Is she's 23 in 2015 there's no way she made this at 18!!!! :O Wow! Good for her!
lembro dessa musica passando no mtv mega hits!
Never heard this song. I like the intro.
Der Song brachte meine Tochter in 15 Minuten auf die Welt 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰ich hatte die einfachste Geburt aller Zeiten 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Anyone here who’s a man but still sings the lyrics 😂

Hi

jajaja on a mission important
Great voice! She should be singing blues or Jazz, that would suit her vocal style a lot.
+Johnny Trash Completely agree. I love her song "Sweet About Me", it suits her vocals style so much better. This sounds Bonnie Tyler in the early 80's.
this is probably the best song ever made
I love this song! Whoever hates it, it is your choice. I just love the message and the energy.
I was lucky enough to see her at Tramlines a couple of years ago.... A VERY beautifull young woman.... Good singer too !!
This is one of my favorite cheesy pop songs.
I can't believe she's only like 18 y/o in this. She looks in her mid-late 20's.
Errr that's a new concept called hair and makeup
Gabriella sei perfetta Sei la numero 1 ❤👍🏼
2022 and still excellent 😁
Wow! What a beautiful woman
