Also does not appear to be pre-recorded. Very rare on live TV performance back in those days (Even when artists wanted to perform live they would generally force the issue)
This woman was calling out this BS 30 years ago and it was glossed over. Nothing but respect for her. It probably cost her her career as a performer in the States. Be proud, Cathy, you called out those creeps. Big love from your English home boy. ❤
this woman wrote "runaway (U&I)" "I kissed a girl" "toxic" "can't get you out of my head" after all those years, and they become top hits. she is so talented.
@@tomwhite916 Glad to have helped. Right from their debut album and also non-album tracks too. Hope you enjoy them! “Holy Water” and “Runaway (U & I)” bring 2 of my personal faves and then “Emoji” which is definitely crazy 😂
Entitlement takes many forms, and is ugly in all of them. She’s got talent and does a great show (I don’t think I could sing while dancing, ever). Don’t know why others couldn’t just be happy to have her as part of their tour without acting like she should sleep with them (or want to). Sad, those tours all missed out, thanks to their selfishness.
@Ispeth I've heard her music, but not of her. I have the greatest respect for her now also. I've only just seen her "Touch Me" video last month after hearing it on the radio a zillion times. I thought that it was recorded by Madonna.
I admire Cathy for this interview. Just because she wears cat-suits and sings "touch me all night long", doesn't mean to say she'll just jump into bed with you! Good for her for being so young and not taking any shit. 👌🏼
She chose dignity, respect, honesty and all those real good values we don't see today. At such a young age, she had strength, conviction and determination to follow through and stand up to what is wrong.
It was very uncomfortable to hear what she went through. We have heard these sort of rumors about artists being pressed to do these sort of things. Quite sad and disgusting but she made the right choice.
Important note here !!!!...............Cathy had a very intense and special kind of sensuality. She sounded , looked and moved different than anyone on the scene at that time. I won't mention names here , but one can only imagine some of the artists that were gobbling up the charts at the time that took a much "tackier" approach to their music and stage appeal. Cathy was a classy music machine ! She combined sophisticated , modern dance moves with hot but beautifully executed arrangements. Her emotionally charged songs were mesmerizing too. Take for example , "moments of Love", ( If you listen to her in the opening, you can almost hear the sophisticated shades of Bacharach in the late sixties ) so gorgeous and dreamy. Her combination of bold movement and "techno-esque" club sounds was something that took dance music to a whole new level in the early 90's. Although Cathy continues to work behind the scenes creating hits for other artists, I love seeing video's like this that remind me of the talent that still inspires the young ( I hope, anyway ! ). What really strikes me most in closing, is that the most important thing she gave us was this strong , but still feminine sense of women's empowerment. And that I JUST LOVE !!!!
Ok listen up: She was underrated even though for awhile this lady was all over the place and everywhere. She was a complete package. Fine. Can sing. CAN DANCE HER BUTT OFF! And knew how to play to the camera. Had great stage prescence. Her 1st album was the bomb. Cathy moved on to great success in other areas as well.
In Britney's defense, she pushed hard for Toxic to be a single while the record company wanted to play it safe. It's her favourite song that she has been associated with. I heard the demo, Britney didn't bring much to the recording with vocals. What you hear most of all is Cathy's vocals. But good on Britney for having faith that it would be a hit.
Good on her calling bullshit on Milli Vanilli. Even Rick Dees tried to be a little fresh with her at the beginning and then figured it out she ain't one to be fucked with
I once met Cathy Dennis in Oklahoma City at a record store appearance she was doing. She was in town on the Milli Vanilli tour. When I told her how excited I was to get to see her and D-Mob perform that night she got a sad look on her face and said she was leaving the tour and wouldn't be at the show. She said she couldn't say why but that I would find out in the future. All this time I figured it was because of the Milli Vanilli lip sync controversy that later came out and that she didn't want to be involved with that whole thing. Now I see this video that explains it all. She was sooooo sweet and kind to me that day. Hardly anyone came to meet her so we just talked the whole hour she was there. I was so glad that she went on to become such a successful performer. Milli Vanilli totally sucked that night by the way. I left after 2 songs. Screw those guys.
Real music is live. You can hear the gasps, the catching of the breath. She is juggling the dance moves and the singing. Raw is real! These days, you wont have something like this. This is rare nowadays.
This is Singing! This is the music I miss! This is Pop Music! No Auto, No Nothing Just Vocals And Backtrack. And she's singing from a Dynamic Microphone, you are getting pure vocal. I was 15 when she came out with this I'm
Amazing!!! Her voice is almost one to one identical with the one in her records! She can sing live and dance in that time - incredible! I don't think today artists are able to do this!
Wow, Cathy has an ADORABLE voice! So cute! I also liked the question, “Who poured you into that outfit, Cathy?” Indeed, she fills out her catsuit nicely!
Too Many Walls is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen. She demonstrated her poise and elegance and so glad she made the right personal choices during her career.
Wow Cathy (the singer in this video) would a few year later co-write as a composer massive hits for other singers like 1. Kylie Minogues song I Can't Get You Out Of My Head 2. Britney Spears song Toxic and 3. Katy Perry's song I Kissed A Girl. Cathy knows how to make hits !!!!
Wow, she's actually singing here and not lip syncing! Omg and that head sideways head bob that makes me crush hard on her!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😀😀😀😀😀💗💗💗💗 gosh she's SO CUTE!!! I love that brutal honesty about Milli Vanilli 😂🤣😂🤣
Cathy Dennis was one of the hottest sex symbols of the 90’s and also most underrated females here in the U.S.A. Cathy displays REAL TALENT without any special efx, lip syncing, auto-tune, voice synthesizer crap! And u heard her say she loves San Francisco, California! I loved her then and I STILL love her NOW!
Music of the late 80's early 90's was great!! Cathy Dennis and Lisa Stansfield are great. I was lucky to meet Cathy Dennis in Japan in 1991, talented, sweet personality, and HOT.....
I loved her as a kid and never understood why she just vanished off the charts. So many good songs. Then I heard she did Toxic, the only Britney song I ever liked. Makes sense. Also outing people as sex pests? Good for her. I love her more now.
Thanks for your comments. She's still writing and doing vocals today. If you've not checked Galantis out, have a listen as Cathy's writing and vocals appear on a fair few of their songs :)
Probably because she had morals and wouldn't sleep with powerful men on command. Just like Mira Sorvino stopped getting work because she wouldn't sleep with Harvey the Hutt.
I remember being floored the first time I heard "Just Another Dream" in 1991! I've been in love with the sound of Cathy Dennis' voice ever since. Watching her live here...goodness, dare I say she may even sound better live than on recordings! The best of her music is utterly timeless.
Garland Cary Agreed and thanks for the comment. Have you heard the stuff she’s been doing over the last 20 years under cover for other artists? Totally amazing work.
I've been listening to Cathy Dennis since Jan 1990 everybody knows when we hear Real vocals Real talent , Cathy D is a force that is beyond anything today from her Beauty to her voice when she talks is so gorgeous Cathy and Olivia newton- john can bring a skyscraper down that's how much they command they are feminine, gorgeous, beautiful , of any girl today they can't compete these two ladies are what true ladies should be ......
Not a whole lot of performers can dance and sing at the same time. She couldn't sing word for word at the pace to keep up with the dancers but still she was able to do both! I hope that she's putting out some music in the future. I miss watching her videos and listening to her songs. One of the 🐐 voices in music!
She's still writing and singing today but not solo. Have you heard the tracks she has either written and / or performed for Galantis? Their most recent album "Church" has a lot of Cathy on it and there is more to come with their 4th album.
Bought her cassette in the early 90s when I was a young teenager. Her look is perfect and its her signature from her hair dance moves, clothes. Very attractive, beautiful. 👏🏻💙🎤🎼
Singing (flawlessly) live while dancing. THAT'S a performance!!!
Which not many artists can do today! I don't know how she did it - thanks for your comment :)
i noticed the same
Whereas Milli Vanilli couldn't even sing on their records, and they were apparently scumbags too.
Also does not appear to be pre-recorded. Very rare on live TV performance back in those days (Even when artists wanted to perform live they would generally force the issue)
A beautiful woman,her songs, and dancing had me dancing along with her
This woman was calling out this BS 30 years ago and it was glossed over. Nothing but respect for her. It probably cost her her career as a performer in the States. Be proud, Cathy, you called out those creeps. Big love from your English home boy. ❤
It didn’t cost her her career in states, she was very successful
Milli Vanilli a little bit rapey?
I just think promotion and style changes had something to do with it, but who am I? She is still amazing to this day :)
BS??What Is?
@@musicontv6791 Bull Shit
She's on pitch even with all the dancing. Impressive.
She's amazing :)
Real vocals here...no tracks. AND her pitch is perfect. Amazing performance given the really bad singers nowadays.
Thank you
She's the real deal
100% and still is today :)
this woman wrote "runaway (U&I)" "I kissed a girl" "toxic" "can't get you out of my head" after all those years, and they become top hits. she is so talented.
Absolutely, she has done so much more on Galantis' new album "Church" too
I didn't know about galantis ♥️♥️♥️♥️
@@tomwhite916 Glad to have helped. Right from their debut album and also non-album tracks too. Hope you enjoy them! “Holy Water” and “Runaway (U & I)” bring 2 of my personal faves and then “Emoji” which is definitely crazy 😂
She's fit as fcuk too
It's a shame she couldn't take legal action against those individuals that treated her badly...
She spoke the truth. She quit the tour. In another interview she exposed Milli Vanilli. I have the greatest respect for her.
She quit another USA tour with MTV stars , for the same reason, poor Cathy ..
Ye she did right. Cathy's no bag she is just talented unlike the modern day artists.
Entitlement takes many forms, and is ugly in all of them. She’s got talent and does a great show (I don’t think I could sing while dancing, ever).

@@AvoidsPikes- listen to her demo of Toxic. She wrote it and Britney sang it
Love the way she called out Milli Vanilli. Incredibly dignified. I've loved her for 30 years.
I admire Cathy for this interview. Just because she wears cat-suits and sings "touch me all night long", doesn't mean to say she'll just jump into bed with you! Good for her for being so young and not taking any shit. 👌🏼
Absolutely agreed :)
Very classy. Rick Dees is a total sleaze ball.
Cathy Dennis is not only a great song writer, but singer and performer too. Totally incredible, exceptionally talented woman
Thank you
hot
gorgeous too

It was very uncomfortable to hear what she went through. We have heard these sort of rumors about artists being pressed to do these sort of things. Quite sad and disgusting but she made the right choice.
Collectively, these values make her far more attractive as a woman in my books. Beautiful.
@@imdjc4 Is she still single? I saw her first. . .
I originally liked and have now loved your comment :)
No, she's married :)
Fantastic voice no autotune, I love her
the mic sounds cheap tho
Autotune is like fucking with a condom. It's just awful. The person that invented it should be tickled for an hour
Eerly 90s, she's amazing even if the mic was awful
I love the fact that the mic is cheap, it REALLY shows how strong her voice is, I appreciate it to the fullest
Sings live! Writes & produces the music! Is honest! Looks ace! And the backing dances are amazing! Well done Cathy & Co xxx

Back in the day I admired her very much. Hard working!
She is FIT!

Keith Bell AND she has written so many hits for artists
Keith Bell remember she was on 90210? “Too ManyWalls”
Kylie Minogue, pop/disco princess all over the world since the 80s, thanks to Dennis writing "Can't get you outta my head" got #1 for a long time
Her voice is identical to the récord!! A beautiful muse of músic!!
Good on her calling bullshit on Milli Vanilli. Even Rick Dees tried to be a little fresh with her at the beginning and then figured it out she ain't one to be fucked with
Very true. She was very careful with how she responded but was very clear to call it all out!
Shes beautiful
One of, if not, the most beautiful woman in the 90s, and she sang like the angels.
gorgeous lady, great vocals, great legacy-->knockout
I Cant Believe Her Figure. She is a Perfect
@@Filmation77 nah she's fucking fat
InstallShield Wizard in what world-
@@DWEEBERBUG He was being facetious.

hot as hell
SOMEONE ACTUALLY SINGING LIVE ????? Today that is forbidden in the music industry. Great voice Cathy.
She was singing live but with playback. Its all good for me as long as the MUSIC is good.
Paul Hoeflich Check my more recent live video. See if you recognise the songs 😉
Hahaha...that's the first thing I noticed and was about to make a comment when I saw yours. Good on her for insisting to sing for real.
Dan my name Yes. She only ever did like 2% lip syncing. She’s amazing
If there's ever a video clip that I'd wish it has been recorded in HD, this would be it.
such an amazing singer. Touch Me blew up the radio in '91 and I loved it as a young teenager
Still standing the test of time today too :)
when people SANG FOR REAL ...awesome !!!! thank U 4 sharing !
Glad you enjoyed it - thank you
My god she was great! I always was a huge fan but never saw this live performance
She is ACTUALLY singing (live) - unlike Milli Vanilliever could do.
Milli vanilli rule 👏👏👏

Thanks for sharing your Cathy Dennis story.
Well, one of them (Rob Pilatus) already took his life in 1998...
You seem like a very sweet person
GIRL YOU KNOW ITS GIRL YOU KNOW ITS GIRL YOU KNOW ITS
Such a good looking doll!
She's beautiful.
Still is as well

I love how she poses after every verse so hot!
Should have been a model
Childhood crush. Now at 44 shes still as fit . 😍😍😍😍 cathy dennis !! ❤😍
She still looks amazing and is growing older, gracefully :)
54
She's pop, she pens alot of late songs. Very talented.
TheGuerillapatriot Indeed but she’s gone very quiet now. 🤔
I miss those days.
Amazing!!! Her voice is almost one to one identical with the one in her records! She can sing live and dance in that time - incredible! I don't think today artists are able to do this!
Absolutely - it is so hard and she pulls it off so well :)
on the same level as michael jackson!
Wow, Cathy has an ADORABLE voice! So cute!
I also liked the question, “Who poured you into that outfit, Cathy?” Indeed, she fills out her catsuit nicely!
Still, and will always be a fan of Cathy Dennis!!!
Shes stunning and beautiful vocals love her voice x
just beautiful! and i am talking about the music and the woman!
she told the truth. She also sang live for real which few did
Too Many Walls is one of the most beautiful videos I have ever seen. She demonstrated her poise and elegance and so glad she made the right personal choices during her career.
She truly is amazing and still to this day!
I love this. Another British talent. So underrated.
100% - I wish she had more success as a solo artist but she is still around today, writing and singing for others e.g. Galantis :)
She sounds excellent LIVE!
My 90's dream girl 😍
Amazing singer and performer. Sooo underrated, although everyone I knew loved her growing up.
gorgeous lady, gorgeous vocals, great choreography, don't make em like this anymore, fantastic stuff
I just found her after the Toxic original. I’m 18 years old and love 80s/90s music. Gotta say.... I AM OBSESSEDDDD😭😍
iicy antt Go listen to Cathy’s music if you haven’t already done so!
I was an obsessed 18 year old back in 1990!
You’ve got fabulous taste!
Love Cathy ♥️
Loved her in 1990. Good for you.
My favorites are Cathy Dennis, Amy Grant & Tara Kemp
I should say something so you know when I saw this. I'm impressed that she's actually singing. You don't see that on many live performances
You’re right. She tended to sing live unless the TV show preferred a prerecorded version
OMG that red catsuit
All I can say is WOW!! Cathy Dennis is one hot lady!!!
I know I liked this comment but thanks for posting :)
oh she woke that tea up baddd
She certainly did ;)
Wow Cathy (the singer in this video) would a few year later co-write as a composer massive hits for other singers like 1. Kylie Minogues song I Can't Get You Out Of My Head 2. Britney Spears song Toxic and 3. Katy Perry's song I Kissed A Girl. Cathy knows how to make hits !!!!

Shes freaking awesome
She’s so pretty
very nice music....
What a beauty!!
Voice and face reminds of Posh Spice.
So cooool
Finally I've found her singing with real voice. Thank u so so much!!!
sounds good to hear someone sing and be actually good and in key unlike most of today.
agree and she sounds the same when she sings live unlike some music artist today
Love Cathy Dennis!!
The brain behind Kylie's Cant get You out of my head. I love Cathy Dennis
And a whole lot more too :)
Wow, she's actually singing here and not lip syncing! Omg and that head sideways head bob that makes me crush hard on her!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😀😀😀😀😀💗💗💗💗 gosh she's SO CUTE!!! I love that brutal honesty about Milli Vanilli 😂🤣😂🤣
Cathy was and is the real deal and works really hard
F-I-N-E !!!!!
She is so absolutely gorgeous, not to mention she can really sing
She is amazing and unfortunately had a more successful career writing and producing for others. She prefers that to promotion though
30 odd years ago. Messes with ones head. Back to the future was 30 years. Makes me want to cry
Talented as hell then and now
A literal goddess.
Cathy Dennis was one of the hottest sex symbols of the 90’s and also most underrated females here in the U.S.A. Cathy displays REAL TALENT without any special efx, lip syncing, auto-tune, voice synthesizer crap! And u heard her say she loves San Francisco, California! I loved her then and I STILL love her NOW!
I have loved CD forever, she sounds great here. No lip syncing here
Same here and still love and interested in her today. We have a Facebook group "Cathy Dennis Fan Club"
Music of the late 80's early 90's was great!! Cathy Dennis and Lisa Stansfield are great. I was lucky to meet Cathy Dennis in Japan in 1991, talented, sweet personality, and HOT.....
japanjack62 Amazing!!! Did you ever see the Japanese TV commercial she did? I would love to see that.
Gifted song writer too.
Live preciousness.
100% :)
I loved her as a kid and never understood why she just vanished off the charts. So many good songs. Then I heard she did Toxic, the only Britney song I ever liked. Makes sense. Also outing people as sex pests? Good for her. I love her more now.
So basically she got cancelled because she didn't fuck a couple of mime artists.
Thanks for your comments. She's still writing and doing vocals today. If you've not checked Galantis out, have a listen as Cathy's writing and vocals appear on a fair few of their songs :)
I'm gonna send her a bill one day for all the space she took up in my head as a youngin. My God she was gorgeous.
Still is. But... yeah. :)
Ha ha - thanks for the comment. She is amazing
Love Cathy Dennis!
Loved dancing to her songs at the club!
Where's my time machine?
Found her singing with D Mob
Maybe the most GORGEOUS woman EVER
she's beautiful
Beautiful lady! Nice haicolor,haircut and she's thin.🙂👍Old school baby ! Great music ! Kathy Dennis is from England !🙂👍
Bravo, Cathy Dennis!!
I’m in love with her! Why was she never more famous???
Probably because she had morals and wouldn't sleep with powerful men on command. Just like Mira Sorvino stopped getting work because she wouldn't sleep with Harvey the Hutt.

Go Cathy love it. Dance 🩰.
Move to this, what a gem of a CD. Danced the night away to this on the Hull Quebec strip.
It was remastered a few years ago. Wish they'd do the same with the 2nd and 3rd albums and consider releasing "Inspiration" which was canned in 1994.
Wait, what? Have you heard it? Are there copies floating about or is it a complete mystery?
I've been listening to Cathy Dennis since Jan 1990 everybody knows when we hear Real vocals Real talent , Cathy D is a force that is beyond anything today from her Beauty to her voice when she talks is so gorgeous Cathy and Olivia newton- john can bring a skyscraper down that's how much they command they are feminine, gorgeous, beautiful , of any girl today they can't compete these two ladies are what true ladies should be ......
