What makes Jody Watley a UNIQUE Diva is because we WATCHED her grow from dancing on Soul Train as a young girl and later a young woman, perform in Shalamar, and EXPLODE as a solo artist. She has always had great songs NO FILLERS in sight. Watley is a Living Legend. @jodywatley

@Ramon Hart Yaaaassss, hunty! Jody was a BAD B1TCH! She didn't really get the credit she deserved. She was no Aretha or Patti vocally, but her music and production quality was ON POINT for a Pop Artist. She drew a lot of comparisons to Janet at the time, with that wet n wavy weave, but i actually think Jody was a better NATURAL dancer and mover than Janet. Janet was bad, but all of stuff had to be elaborately choreographed. Jody could be in a video or on stage movin all by herself.

6/6/2020 Rest easy, Tyrone “The Bone” Proctor. A dance/choreography legend and former Soul Train dancer. Jody and Tyrone have been good friends for decades. Most often on Soul Train, when you saw Jody & Jeffrey (Daniel), you also saw Tyrone and his regular partner, Sharon Hill (Woods) not far away. Jody featured Tyrone in this video where they beautifully demonstrated the marriage of locking and waacking throughout their choreography.❤️💫✨ For those who think they are voguing: this style of dance is called waacking. Waack dancing has been going on at least since the early 1970s. If you go back and watch those 70s clips of Soul Train, especially during the mid-late 70s, you will see Tyrone, Sharon, Jeffrey, and Jody used to mix waack dancing in with several other moves. Also, just want to mention that Tyrone once stated that Waack was a west coast dance mostly performed to Disco/R&B type of music; whereas Vogue was an east coast dance mostly performed to House music.

....Miss Watley....I must make a confession RIGHT here....THIS song, AND, this Video...wrecked my NERVES, my well BEING, my financial STATUS, my sexuality, my teeth....ALL of IT!! ..ha-HAA!! (cont.) ....I was already a HUGE Jody fan, even BEFORE 'Looking For...', BUT, when the single dropped, May '87, (I already had the debut album), the stark B&W picture sleeve photo made me say, 'I can't wait for the video...' ..oh, NO....I saw it on Ralph McDaniel's 'Video Music Box' : The waaacking. the Hair. the LOCALE. the petticoat. the BOOTS. the Earrings.the 'back in color' ending. the STAIRCASE. the Male partner, matching her EVERY move. the 12" Remix. the POSES. and most of all, the EXTENDED version VIDEO; remember kids, NO ONE was doing THIS, at the time; Jody was SO forward thinking, in terms of product for her Club / Dance fans, and, her stylized image; Janet Jackson had 'The Pleasure Principle' video, around the SAME TIME, and these here Two girls, were THE ONES. they were..THE. ONES!!! ...after Jody's Video, EVERYBODY was shooting videos in Paris (even Biz Markie!) ..and even though Madonna was asking, 'Who's That Girl?' at the time, Jody was the one making those MOVES. Time has revealed who the REAL INNOVATOR was, and, I couldn't be more pleased that Jody FINALLY gets acknowledgement for the choices she made with her career, & her STYLE; Sometimes, it's best to be RESPECTED, than REVERED.....and, YES girl, you're STILL a THRILL.....

Many years ago after the song was released in BET interview Andrea Cymone & Jody Watley mentioned in the studio version, Andrea played all the bass & had Wendy Melvion assist with playing the funk rhythm guitar which wasn't credited by choice. Ironically both Andrea & Wendy were both a major part of Prince band. Additionally, both Wendy & Lisa sang along background on Andre Cymone "Dance Electric" the funk jam originally recorded, written & produced by the PURPLE ONE himself.

@@shavondarobinson8474 Jody was dancing on Soul Train in the early 70's when she was 14 years old. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fLedbM57t5y-qIE.html Then singing and dacing with the band Shalamar, so yeah, she's got style and moves like Madonna never could comprehend! Madonna owes her a lot of props!

Several visual elements of this underrated and underappreciated 1987 video preceded two iconic videos of the time: 1. It featured voguing before Madonna's "Vogue" (1990). 2. The industrial scenes in this video came before the industrial setting of Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation" (1989). 3. All three videos were in black and white.

One of the best bass lines I have heard in a song for a long time. Especially, in the chorus. Playing the same note, making the most of pure rhythm, is hard to do correctly (0:59). When it is done correctly, it can be just absolute perfection. To me, whoever composed this song deserves all the Grammies that were given to Billie Eilish and Finnieas, because it's clear who has more compositional skill.

Andre Cymone, early collaborator and band member with Prince. He was working with and dating Jody Watley around this time if I'm correct. Jody said it started as a sort of joke where she sung in this low register and Andre played the bass & guitar.

I will say... At the time in 1987, there was Janet, Whitney, Madonna, but Jody Watley had a style & sound all of her own that was so soulful & different. Her look was so new & unique, all her own! I love Miss Jody, Spring 1987-Spring 1988 this album was rockin'.

Andre and Jody made beautiful slamming music together. He produced some of his best music with his music "Muse",,,,Jody....Andre and Prnce created the Miniappolis sound heard in this song..Andre plays the instuments on this record. I once heard a well known Music engineer from ATL....A.S.. (who is a bass player) say that Andre Cymone is one of the best bass players ever..... Some say Prince assisted behind the scene with Jody's album....Prince and Cymone style is so much in tune with the other because they came up from grade school together. Andre was always the band leader in school..Prince was the 1st to get signed to the big league so we saw cymone as the bass player...Prince knew andre was much more than that...Andre had to do his own thing as well.

Now that is style, class, righteous funk, mighty fine dance moves and great stage presence. This can't compete with the crap coming out of music studios today. Music doesn't have edge anymore, profanity, lame beats and repetitive words is all we get. Its all about the Benjamin's and not about the passion anymore. The music industry today is about who can make the latest beat stand popular for the next two weeks. 80s live forever!!! Jody wately is amazing.
