This video was shot at Shibuya Kokaido, Tokyo, Japan on June 14, 1987. The song was played twice for the clip and once for real later during the concert. I know this because I was there.
So cool, man.... there are also some shots filmed in a studio with "proper lighting" of Gloria singing certain parts (see the opening vocal part) to tie it all together. You are so fortunate to have seen this moment in music history.
Miami sound machine my band when I was in Miami ,I'm glad for videos now I can go to all your concerts on my own! Thank you Gloria and I'm sorry for not going to any of your concerts ,I was to proud to ask ,, But I never will give up my hopes to meet you again , I remember the White party in Vizcaya, that afternoon I ran to you at the beach you where running doing exercises , ran to you and introduce my self, and you shake my hand , I was so happy a dream come true, I got to meet Miami sound machine!
Ich liebe Gloria Estefan & Miami Soundmachine ❤️❤️❤️!!! Auch Sie ist mit Lisa Stansfield, Annie Lennox, Whitney Houston, Madonna u.u. u. eine Ikone der '80er! Die '80er haben so tolle Sängerinnen und auch Frauenbands hervorgebracht!! Warum gibt es heute keine Frauenbands mehr? Damals war noch 🔥 und Leidenschaft 💘 In der Musik 🎶🎤🎸🎹🎷. Heute ist alles nur noch seicht und die Musik ist entweder gecovert oder ohne Höhen und Tiefen, eher was zum 😴! Ich verstehe nicht, warum es heute keine guten Frauenbands mehr gibt! Ich fand das damals toll!
I remember seeing them right before they hit big in 1985, at Calle Ocho in Miami. Loved meeting her a few years ago and told her I was there. She was just as sweet and beautiful in person. Loved that she took a photo with me ❤
This woman and The Band make some very entertaining songs and the interaction between Gloria and the other members is so spontaneous to me and playful it almost makes the song come to life I was born in 1957 so you can imagine I've been on the ground floor of many musical acts through the years and watched some come and go and others thrive and everything they've put out is just so entertaining unfortunately I wish from watching these live performances I wish I could have been there they knock it out of the park!
I was born in 1975 And I always said I wish That I was born in 1960 That way I would have had more fun Watching music from the 60$ and 70$ Because at least I got my 80$ and 90$. Your lucky my freind
I agree. This is one of the best pop songs that came out in the 1980s. Yes, those were the times when music has sounded so good. Now compare all that to the current crop of music-garbage!!!!!
I always loved Gloria's look and voice. I was really in love with her. When I was a teenager, I had a classmate who looked almost like her, I still remember that girl when I hear this song.
One of my favorite Gloria Estefan songs. It reminds me of the movie, "Three Men and a Baby." Their song, "Bad Boy" was in the movie but I think this song would have fit in just as well. :)
I love the message of the song as well as background and lyrics. Wow.! its too catchy and chezzy. It reminds me of Ahhhemmm.! either my suitors or admirer before. Why? ohhh why? most the songs of Ms. Gloria is either too chezzy, perhaps catchy, heartwarming makes me wanna cry or simply makes me wanna dance. It is so nice to hear from her even I am just in late 20's. Such a wonderful talent. 😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘👏👏👏👏
Just love this song! She is so beautiful. Just a class act all the way. The 80s and 90s were my decades (born in 1967). Geez, I miss the world we had. We all got a long and were just Americans. So much optimism in our music and culture. Little did we know the America we knew would be destroyed without a shot being fired.
@@xq280764 I say the same thing when see folks do that now under comments. some put many yrs into the future. We are not in 2020 yet. No 1 can answer if will be listening then ofc, so no idea why they do that. I think it is a running joke or something new on the net. Just weird & confusing to me unless they explain it is that. For now, I am stumped & curious. I'd like to think maybe sometimes it is a typo.

Been a fan ever since I started liking pop music and I'm just now discovering this charming song with an adorable little music video of her performing in Japan. I'm still just as big a fan as ever.
LYRICS (YEAR 1987): Betcha say that Betcha say that Betcha say that To all the girls You say you'll be my knight in shining armor We'll run away and live a life of glamor You say for me you'll be true blue You say you want me everywhere beside you And that you just cannot live without me no You say I love you I betcha say that to all the girls Betcha say that You say you wish I wasn't so defensive You try to kiss me but I'm apprehensive No, no, I just don't believe you You say you feel as though you're going crazy Your head is spinning and your eyes are hazy You say I want you I betcha say that to all the girls Betcha say that, betcha say that I betcha say that to all the girls Betcha say that I just don't know why I don't believe you But I want you anyway You say you want to fall in love forever You'll get place where we can be together No more secret rendezvous You say you're tired of always feelin' lonely And that you want me for your one and only You say I want to marry you I betcha say that to all the girls I betcha say that I betcha say that It's your favorite line and you think it's gonna work every time Ooh baby Betcha say that line to all the girls Be-be-be-baby I betcha say that, say that I betcha use that line on all the girls You think I was born yesterday You think with me that you can have your way Ooh baby, betcha say that line, to all the girls Betcha say that
I Love This Gloria Estefan And The Miami Sound Machine 1987 Music Video, "Betcha Say That," Which Became A Top 20 Adult Contemporary Hit In America, And A Top 25 Dance Hit In America.
I had a huge grown up crush on her… now looking back I see why. At least I did get to see her up close in person once.. the night I attended her Broadway show she was there and led some audience members through a giant Conga line up and down the aisles. It was a lot of fun.
I wont stop myself to sing along with your songs and I will try my best in spanish as well. Spanish is most of my favorite language aside from English and my mother tongue Filipino.

...trivia TIME!! ...gather 'ROUND!! ...This was the follow-up to "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You", A MASSIVE Pop / Dance hit, summer of 1987; Gloria's label wanted to release "Can't Stay Away From You" as the follow-up, but Gloria & her manager hubby chose "Betcha...", because they were going on the "Evolution" tour, in 1988, and thought it had Pop appeal..... THEN, when 'Betcha' bombed (#36 Pop), the NEXT single was going to be an LP track called "Surrender"..... (CONT.) ...While Gloria & MSM were promoting "Surrender", "Can't Stay Away..." was getting AC play on the Radio SO much, that the label RUSH-RELEASED 'Can't...', and, It became a BIG AC / Pop hit, March, of 1988!! ....after that, the floodgates OPENED; 'Anything For You', '1-2-3', & a (shelved) re-issue of 'Surrender' made "Let It Loose" THE Pop / Dance LP from a Group, in 1988!! ...'betcha say that to ALL the guys, 'eh!?? ...ha-HAA!!
The "Evolution" tour didn't begin til almost a decade later in 1996. This was the era of the "Let it Loose" world tour. Gloria has said in the past that Sony controlled her single releases back then. It wasn't until her latter years that she gained more control over her single releases when her friend Tommy Mottola took over the role of MD of Sony Music. Working with her, Tommy Mottola gave her control of her image too hence the completely stripped back look for the "Cuts Both Ways" album cover.
@wilsondylanmccartney Absolutely agree with you, wilson. Somehow missed this song back in the 80s and just heard it on the radio - definite "Chain Reaction" vibe here!!
