@LAWoman323213 The problem is that she did not put something that was unique back in 1991. Grunge was peaking. She would have been better off if she did the Lilith Fair-route and country pop in addition to Latin songs. Speaking of which, Gloria Estefan put Latin music to a higher level. Then Jennifer Lopez went another direction.
U can tell by the loud applause coming from the audience that they were cheering for Martika since she was the first "KIDS INC" castmember to pursue a successful music career. This is a nice tribute to her.
It almost sounds like they did what they used to do with Martika, and the background vocals are actually Stacy's, so she's basically singing the lead and background parts. Or the background vocals are someone else's. Because those do not sound like Love and Devyn in the background. Of course, they raised Stacy's pitch in this song (and a lot of songs in 1989), so it could be that they did that to the background vocals of Love and Devyn too.
Is it just me or does Stacy's voice sound whiny in the first few notes when she says because it's the truth and wanted to tell you so many times?

Stacy's hair looks awful here cause her perm is grown out, they should of at least crimped her hair to make it look better!

I wonder if Martika and the other Kids Incorporated cast members are just a little jealous of Stacy's (a.k.a. Fergie) success.
I think it sucks that Martika's career didn't last. She was good. Especially her song that Prince wrote.

stacy totally wrecked that song I think it sounds like total crap. Stacy never sing this song again leave it to the real star Martika.

How appropriate...a song from one of the original KI members being covered with a lead part by the last of the original cast.
