Back in the day Lisa Lisa, Janet, Sheila E, both Roxanne’s, Cherelle, Salt n Pepa, Michell’e, En Vogue, MC Lyte, Latifah, etc hip hop, pop, and r &b’s finest
I remember this was the jam of the summer back in the day. I would hear this song going to school JHS 217 in Queens then hear it on the radio 24/7. Brings back crazy good memories. Just like in the movies there was this girl Silvana Rodriquez who was like my homegirl and I never had the guts to ask her out. She was always there and had my back even when I was dating other girls. We would go to the handball courts during lunch time and play handball while Lisa Lisa jam was playing. Good Times.
Wow the memories just came flooding back to me of when I had my first real relationship. I used to sing this song all the time back then and I miss those days.
Great song, I remember it hitting hard in my 1984 Honda Prelude with my Blaupunkt Houston Stereo, and equalizer, 13 inch Seas Subwoofers, ADS 320is for the mids and highs, with a 300 watt Linear power amplifier to the subbass, Alpha Sonic Electronic Crossover, and a ADS amplifier to the ADS 320is speakers.
Before there was Paula Abdul or even Jennifer Lopez, there was Lisa Lisa. Sadly enough, Lisa doesn't get any "Bank" in temrs of Royalties because she didn't Co Write it. Can you imagine how much Money the Fellows got when it was sampled by so many folks most notably The Black Eyed Peas for Don't Phunk With My Heart.
I have it! Got it backstage at Madison Square Garden at the freestyle festival back in the 2000s. A friend got us backstage and we met some of the stores I got Lisa’s autograph but there was a man walking around with a newborn baby was until later on stage Lisa talked about her husband and baby and we realize that it was her baby all along
Man oh man I miss the old days with the young teen age girls but still it was alot of crap too..so .....do I really miss it?well...if I could change it I would!!!
Besides this performance being incredible, the two men kissing Lisa on the cheek at different moments during this video would never fly today. The kiss from the blonde guy at the end was unwanted and would be considered assault in today’s world. Just sayin.
WOW! I wish I can get me one of those electric drums that play by themselves without me having to bang on them while I sing and dance. I love the invisible back vocals singers too !
