Shalamar's first video and single from The Look, the last lp with the favorable lineup! Tensions rose so much between alumni dancers from "that show" that the only time they were seen together was on the performance portion of the video! Leave some comments everybody! This is another ST Fans Exclusive!

This is rather odd, but, funny......You always would hear an old fav. and recall what you was doing at that time or the place you was at.... The 1st time I heard this was in my Dad's new 83 F-150 on the way home from the dealer when we picked it up. It was a Sat. morning. Dad thought that this song was the stuff. I can remember him trying to blow the door panels off the truck.

When this song firs hit the airwaves here in New York, I was blown away. I remember saying to myself that this sounds like Howard Hewett on lead vocal but this cant be a new "shalamar" record. Then at the end the DJ. said this is Shalamr with their new West Coast Sound. This record is the most Ambitious thing that they ever did. New Wave Sound!! AWESOME!!

Funny I thought I was the only one who picked up on the obvious tension between the group in this video.I remember seeing this video in the New Wave clubs around Seattle and saying to myself;these people hate each other,standing apart,not even looking at each other.Now I know why.

Even in 83, Jody was ahead of her time.

I was working at a big department store in Dallas when this came out.......when it came on the radio in the Young Men's dept, I would dance like an idiot from dept to dept. Those were amazing days to come all thru the 80's. Too bad the music died.
