@KnowleWestBoy The video was directed by the French genius Jean-Baptiste MONDINO who previously did videos for PRINCE(Alphabet Street) or MADONNA(Open Your Heart).
At that time i was too young to know what the song was about, i only looked at here sexy suit at that time, by watching her i got the first sexual feelings, strange or not?
i tell you,many of today's popular female hip-hop artists have a lot to thank neneh for. between she and salt n pepa,they were the first and only female mainstream successes at the time.
What a track. Was 8 when this came out remember my sister had this tune on vinyl. Played it so so many times. Still very current. Still a fantastic sound.
lol! scotty I was 10.This was one of the first song I actually bought along with INXS with my pocket money.I heard she is grand mother already.she appeared in the gorillaz albums on quite a few tracks and roots manuva's self titled album
speaking on a purely musical basis, this is really good. Anyone who knows what I mean by harmonic analysis can appreciate what this song is like. I would love to give this to a theory class and watch them work it out.. muahahaha! Neneh is SO insufficiently unappreciated.
HOLY SHIT look at those faggot guys, watching those cockfaced faggot fucks with thier bumbags confuses me. should i wanna laugh my ass off or get an errection? precious fucks!
Oh my god...this brings back memories...was only 10 when this came out...the whole Raw Like Sushi album is fantastic...love the Old Skool mix which was released as a B side as well!
this is the song that reminds me of my boyfriend of 3 years who i lvoe dearly.we split up about 8 months ago, so it reminds me of life being at its best...this song means soooo much 2 me..and is alsdo quite upsetting..
I never knew the title of the album until now. It makes sense though cos shortly after dropping in this album Andy Crayon came to her house to do a live interview for GOING LIVE during breakfast,,,and guess what she was eating? ,,,,,,,,,,,SUSHI "My favorite dish" ,,she said. She forced a very hesitant Andy to try some hehehe
Ahhh childhood memories i was about 9 or and had no idea what Sushi was,,,,,I was there cos i had a kinda of crush on here,,,,and yeh the song was/is good no doubt lol.
ahhhhh, takes me back to the days in school when all I had to worry about was my homework and the latest trainers!!! thought I was sooo cool because I knew this song inside out and would sit at the back of the class singing this to the boys! cringe! fantastic song though!
I don't know if I'm 100% on this, but the baby she's holding is the daughter of Lenny Kravitz & Lisa Bonet(Zoe). I remember hearing it on MTV news. I can't remember stuff I learned in school, but this useless trivia bit stayed with me....go figure!
yea u can tell its early by the trainers she's wearing.i love old school trainers.ive got a huge collection of oldskool trainers.ove it! im only 21, but i wish i gre up properly in the 80's.i was too young to appreciate it...love this song!!!!
i love this tune! one of my favourite tracks of all time!why look up the video and listen 2 it if u dont like it!each to their own.its not shite!to me anyway!!!!
really love this song but it has a very strange video and you can tell its the 80's by the clothes that are going on lol still she had more sucsess than her brother eagle eye cherry
"..would you sell your soul for a funky song like the ones you hear on the radio. Turn around and ask yourself, turn around and ask yourself. Manchild..."
I still have Raw Like Sushi on cassette. Plan on getting the CD or downloading it one day. This song is as smooth as butter. This girl on the swing, is that her older daughter? I just thought about that.
My mom just told me that when i used to be a baby and sit down in my box this song came on mtv and when it did i started dancing from the left to the right and nothing could get my attention i kept watching till the clips was over. Im almost 20 now can you believe that haha.
RAW LIKE SUSHI is one of those rare kind of CD's (records/cassettes) you can play over and over from start to finish and not get sick and tired of it even though it's originally from 1988!!!!!!
I always remember how I watch this at my friends house, He´s dead now, in an motor cycle crash. Everybody! make your life right with Jesus christ before you are gone...
Those Nikes where the first boots i ever owned, bang on for a 14 year old white lad in England!!!! Beautiful tune, ahead of its time, music is Awesome, peace :0)
the best time ever!1! nie wiem ile lat ma ten numer ale pamietam ze bylam wtedy dziewica :D oldskulowy i nadal zajebisty!!!! pozdrawienia dla rocznika 78 big up!!

But when it comes down to it I dont take sh1t, if she doesnt want me going out with my mates, I just say 'Im going out, if you dont like it get lost'
She never does leave because Im so AMAZING
