ms. jones music for me is so extremely sensual...it inspires all of my senses...can't listen to it without an intrinsic reaction...she's a master performer.
"La Grace" as my friend likes to call herself, is a true classic eccentric and one of a kind...if you never listened to NYC FM radio in the 1970s, or 1980s an are outside a major metro area, it is likely you never heard of her. She is freaky-deaky but a cool person to party with - I know first-hand! LOL
This video must hold the world record of the longest time it took to create a video under 4 minutes!!! I make videos for free...but you couldn't pay me to make thie video the way it was done. I have no patience.
man this video must've cost a fortune to make..i bet they used every bit of computer animation technology available at the time at full throttle plus some chromakey thrown in for good measure.
@delusionarium It actually cost very little to make. Island didn't give the vid much money to work with. All the animation was done by hand, no computer animation involved. Computers were still a rarity in those days.
Even though Brian Ferry wrote this song, GJ's version is as cool a cool gets. This song stands up to anybody's new stuff. Look for SYNTHETAMINE's version soon....
Man it sounds like something straight from Double Dragon I & II

Just fantastic, though I prefer the longer album version. She was at the cutting edge of everything

Hello boys and girls!
Of course, the original version is excellent, but...
I like discovering new things and I like to share things! I thought that not so many people know this version, I like Grace Jones very much, so...

what EVERY 'cover' of this song misses is the feel and groove of the original; without it, there's no point.
