  • Chill the f*ck out with all the stupid "gay/homo" dancing comments and let those of us who aren't insecurity about our sexuality enjoy the video.

  • Yesssss......

  • dude was so excited about being picked up by a mercedes he broke into homosexual dance

  • I remember my momma use to bump this joint in her ride when I was kid late 80's music

  • sure he's gay anyway but she can pick me up instead. ;)

  • so fine.

  • If you replace ride with f&*k I'm down.

  • She is too pretty!

  • I think beyonce might have took some notes on her swag.

  • She is hot, but too much of that homo dancing.

  • 4:16-:41...serious chin drop at how fine she looks in that dress.

    I deserve a woman like this. Lord, have mercy...

  • this old skool song is on movie License To Drive (1988)

  • I LOVE this song . when i'm on the phone talkin to someone or just watching tv i just start singing the song and i don't even realize im singing the song!!!!

  • This dude killed himself?

  • @vernaculos i read he had a sex change before he did himself in

  • WTF >HOLLY BERRY???????

  • mmmm...Pebbles.

  • "Ride n my Mercedes", What do you think she is really talking about? Maybe that high priced luxury body of hers.

  • the main chords in this song were lifted from a song by james d train williams. somethins on ur mind-1984. check it out

  • 3:21- My best friend and I used to stand around and dance like that for hours.... NO JOKE--HOURS! Boy did we look dumb.

  • @Triniumm1 same here..lol

  • "No! I don't want to ride in your Mercedes! I just want to hang around this crappy rip off wall, play the air guitar and twirl like a beyotch!"

  • great remix :)

  • Why does it have to be a Mercedes? Why can't she drive a Pinto and live in the Projects! LMAO! This is why I don't get asked to ride in Mercedes..... LOL!

  • He just wants to dance by himself- keep driving girl!!

  • @ATRTAP LOL!

  • Respond to this video... Love the video! Favorite song and love the beat!

  • She married L.A. Ried , this produced by Him and Babyface, who were members of the Deele, Karyn White was also produced by them when she first came out too.

  • @jwatwater Get some nut huggers and take dance lessons from Napoleon and your luck will change.

  • I love texas on the wall me 2

  • Why is he dancing like Paul Abdul? lol

  • @Mscmgc82 she probably choreographed the video......

  • @Mscmgc82 he's twirling for his life with those Paula moves!

  • She ain't no Halle Berry look-a-like!  Halle Berry didn't didn't come onto the scene until the 90's. So wouldn't that make Halle a Pebbles look-a-like?

  • I wonder if the exterior shots were shot in Oakland (where she is from)? I geek a little for movie & video location settings.

    Wow at you younguns making fun of the way Rudy Houston is dancing in this vid. Back in the '80s, this dance-style was considered hot. He was a good dancer - you can see him in several '80s Janet Jackson videos performing Paula Abdul's choreography. In some ways, he's a product of Paula Abdul - diss him, and you're dissing Paula!

  • I just heard that Pebbles & Cherelle are cousins. Is this true? They do look and sound somewhat alike...

  • @svetaswan They are cousins, and  Pebbles is LA Reid's ex-wife.

  • @christopherjpaige pebbles WAS L.a.'s wife....no longer

  • Comment removed

  • they aren't dancing their doing Vogue.

  • The fuck is he doing?

  • @SuperMsnik HAHAHA! Well said! This song goes to work shoot!

  • @SuperMsnik Too funny

  • LOVE IT!

  • All the female singers back in the day dress so sexy, but never showed alot of skin. They keep your imagination wondering and wanting them. I love them cougar women, i wish could have dated pebbles back in the day that would have been my baby forever.

  • @KountryBoyMusic Artists back in the day were sexy in general: Pebbles, Vanity, Janet Jackson... And you're right. They throw it all to you at once nowadays. lol

  • 20 People drive a Kia.

  • slick leggos-catch me while i'm wr and drive whose metal are you playing with? she'll wipe you off her shoe do you wanna ride on my ponytail? -whose in the house now- yummy yummy

  • I was there too, Indigoshift. Black folk could dance in the 80's. It was just a shock to see white folk, especially white men, dance with rhythm.

  • what will my next ride be?lexi

  • i love the part where she goes do ya do ya do ya do ya

  • STILL MY JAM TODAY, BOY WAS THIS WOMEN FINE, BETTER LOOKING THAN ALOT OF WOMEN EVEN TODAY,LOL LOOKED THIS SONG WHICH STILL GETS PLAYED IN MY CAR TODAY BAD ASS REMIX!!!

  • Was this the guy dancer that ended up getting a sex change?

  • the dancer name is Rudy Houston he had a sex change look him up his new name is lana houston now

  • "Golden" Ruled Northern California, was the place Music changed Forever -jzebraa 2011 

  • all the 80's video's were good, they were just raw real videos no crazy green screen digital shit... Just talent...

  • greatest music vid of 80's?

  • I wanted to be Pebbles!

    And, for the haters, that man was in all the videos because he was attractive, could dance, and had a damn fine agent! Know the biz, kid!

  • @Myriad727 It's funny that all the folks hating on this dancer are also homophobes. Let's see their moves, lol. That's probably why they can't see the beauty in this kind of movement. People don't dance or choreograph like this anymore.

  • @scientrophic True Facts! Let's see what they've got! There is great choreography out there still, but, at the time this was out, there was a sensuality movement in dance that is unique to the era. (Dictionary Talk ahead!) See also: Janet Jackson - "Pleasure Principle" Am I right? =)

  • @Myriad727 Yeah, it was a certain kind of expressive but accessible balletic and modern movement that had no limits. Pleasure Principle, Cameo's Back and Forth video. All 80's. Even Baryshnikov/Hines used it in White Nights. Everybody was doing it! I love studying the combos and attitude in these videos.

  • 'Boy, I'll give you anything, cruising's all you have to do!'

    One of my favorite lines in the song!

  • hohohohohohooooohohoh

  • im laughing at the aborigne- looking ugly male dancer ... he was on every dmaqn music video lol

  • @iwantMJ1 lol well he is a woman now.. he has a sex change back in the late 90s

  • @hupyt ...ughh now he is a woman !!!.......lmfao ...who would've guessed lol

  • BTW...I would looove to ride in your mercedes Pebbles

  • The dancing faggot sure fucked up the video.....lol

  • She kinda look's like Hally Berry!

  • did this song have a verse?

  • whats up with the wall dancing?

  • he act like a punk

  • Okay... I know the 80's were the height of the AIDS epidemic... And denim jeans with the knees worn out were all the rage with the guys... and Pebbles is singing that "cruisin is all you gotta do" ... oh wait...

  • home of the topless carrot? @ 0:30? wtf? lol

  • Pretty, and I love this song, but she can't dance a lick! But I guess that doesn't matter to the target audience, does it? Lol!

  • Unfortunately he wasn't satisfied with his male form and underwent a gender operation in the early 90's.

  • I'm thinking summer. 

  • I had a HUGE crush on Pebbles back in the day

  • i'm nearly in tears cause i'm wondering whatever happened to REAL MUSIC..i am so happy youtube got OLD SCHOOL JAMS on here

  • SHE WAS A BAD ASS RED BONE. IM 31 YEARS OLD BUT ILL STILL CRACK HER ASS

  • @JustGod7 Jesus. Do you always talk about women like this??

  • Before Beyonce, there was badd women by the name of Pebbles.

  • I was born in the wrong decade man lol....I should have been a young lady in the 80's not now!!!

  • i think this was the first song i ever sang into my hairbrush as a kid. i was like 4 when this came out :)

  • damn she was hot back then and she still is hot at 45

  • THIS IS MY GIRL, ALOT OF WOMEN AND TO BE PEBBLES AND ALOT OF GUYS TOO,LOL I LOVED THIS REMIX AND SONG ONE OF THE HOTTES SONGS OF THE LATE 80'S THE BEAT AND BACKGROUND MUSIC HOT!!!!! DO YOU WANNA RIDE IN MY ....I LOVED PEBBLES

  • This is when The R&B sound incorporated elements of pop; The 80's. Tragically started by Whitney Houston. Shuold have never happened, but it did anyway.

  • The dude dances like "Napoleon Dynomite" ... seriously.. check it out!!

  • @jimkennedy369 haha! he really does

  • @jimkennedy369 This guy couldn't touch Napoleon. lol

  • people getting their message out in the 80's.... multiculturalism baby!

  • the 80z are good locked in time

  • I wish I had lived in the 80s. Not just born in the 80s but to live and experience. Everything just seems so simple. Of course there were other artists with more exciting videos but to see this is just makes everything seem so simple back then. You could sit back with your family and friends and watch music videos back to back without having to be too embarrassed to see chicks bending over and rappers having sex on film to their terrible music.

  • @fresh77896

    The 80's were the best for music.. Not only for pop/dance, but for rock music as well

    I was a teen in the 80's and I would go back in a heart beat!

  • she was the person who discovered TLC!!!

  • reminds me driving my sisters' mercedes benz slk 230 kompressor cruising down the highway with the retractable roof down playing this song pretty loud so cool!

  • Comment removed

  • OH SNAP!! This made me jump my 40 year old azz up and WOP it up like it was 88'!!

  • Black people couldn't dance in the 80s because white people fucked up disco in the 70s.  I was there. I saw the whole thing happen.

  • @indigoshift lmao your killing me

  • @indigoshift it wasn't white people it was gay people and women that fucked up disco, get your shit straight

  • @indigoshift WTF are you talking about. I lived through the 80's too. I saw a whole bunch of brothas and sistas that could dance. You just made yourself look ignorant.

  • @80s4ever63 Thank you. People will always talk prejudiced nonsense... I think this guy is a great dancer, too. I swear, a guy does a pirouette and all of a sudden he's gay and corrupted by the white devil. LOL.

  • @indigoshift I nearly spit my food everywhere, LOL!!!!

  • @indigoshift i'm not really understanding the correlation of black people who couldn't dance in the 80s with the reason being that white people fucked up disco. janet was breaking it down in the 80s, and she's black.

  • @indigoshift Back in the day, most black singers came up in the church where dancing really wasn't allowed. So they weren't exactly breaking and popping like the "street hoods" did back in the day (the same stuff that Usher and others do today). Nowadays, every church condones the dancing and "hip hopping" as long as you are breaking them off with that 10%.  Hell most of the black preachers look like pimps these days anyway. But your comment is still funny.

  • @indigoshift You are too funny, thanks for the chuckle :-)

  • @indigoshift Sorry, but you are offending me and my "ethnicity"!....I'm white and cannot agree with you! There's always good and bad examples everywhere! All my favorite music is black rooted! And as much as I would wish the contrary, unfortunately, black music in general don't get the recognition it should!...And I'm also talking about America! It's sad to see "60's/70's "old school" R&B artists or even 'nusoul' being almost put aside in radios!...(cont.)

  • @indigoshift (Cont.)...Besides, you're forgetting the contribuition of white artists in spreading to mainstream genres/music that otherwise hardly would have been heard of by white audiences and not only across the world! And even in America! What white american would have known Muddy Waters, for instance, without The Rolling Stones during the segregation prior to the civil rights movement?? Or the whole Stax/Motown Catalogue?? Or even the Bee Gees during Disco era??

  • @pijirama ....i think you are taking indigo's comment way too serious. it was meant to be a joke. lighten up a little and dont get offended so easily. he was mainly making fun of the guy dancing in his video which by the way, jimkennedy is right. he does dance like napolean dynamite. im white as well, and i, as well as at least 21 other people, found that comment hilarious.

  • @indigoshift.....you win best comment.

  • @indigoshift How can you say that when Janet Jackson, The Boys, Prince and MC Hammer (to name a few) set such awesome dance trends back then? Where exactly were you in the 80's? =)

  • @indigoshift ahahahaha right you are :)

  • @indigoshift

    you must have missed the breakdancing era... lol

  • @indigoshift Black people couldn't dance in the 80's......Did you miss the whole B Boy era???

    But white people did dance hard in the disco era, but they lost it after that!

  • @kbyer lol funny but true. They're making another comeback though. Actually it's all turning around again.

  • @kbyer lol funny but true. They're making another comeback though. Actually it's all turning around again.

  • @indigoshift lmao!

  • Perri is my girl from back in the day in Oakland! A shout out to pretty, private school black girls!!! No jigs aloud! just playin...NOT!!

  • Reminds me of riding with my mom to work on school days off. Not in a Mercedes, naturally. I was 7.

  • offhand sidenote: the man in the video...that looks like the same man from janet jacksons what have you done for me lately video...(random)

  • @miamivicepastels83 thats cuz it is...dude also later had a sex change lol

  • I agree! The 80's had such great music and style. I mean, if you haven't noticed, every popular artist recently has totally ripped off the style and sound of the 80's not to mention either blatantly ripped off hit 80's songs, or incorporated bits of songs into their own. The same thing with the 90's too. The 80's always makes me feel so much better and makes me happy and bouncy and want to go out dancing or partying.

  • The club scene in the 80s was sexy and high-energy. If you didn't get laid, you still felt like you did.

  • @brothamandap wow!!lol!

  • Ahh ah ha 3:20!

  • I admit, this song is a guilty pleasure, but was she doing her own playback or what?

  • I listen to all kinds of music, all genre's, all decades. And I gotta say.....the 80's friggin' rocked...it didn't matter what you liked... alternative, club, metal, punk, hair bands, R&B, pop, old school...they were all unique and everlasting. And let's not forget MTV...back in the day when they actually used to play music videos. No wonder the 80's music gets sampled so much. Thanx for the song. Brings back good memories.

  • Pebbles...I'll tell u what to do in yo mercedes. Hit the back seat girl!

  • Ahhh, the '80's! What a decade to come of age! This brought back such great memories. Thanks for sharing.

  • Sexy video, Sexy song. Great Video. Thumbs UP!

  • She's a Minister now named Sister Perri, she has a gospel album named "Prophetic Flow" and she still looks beautiful!

  • @Yahcna Really? She's a minister now? Wow! I was just wondering too, while viewing this video where she was and what she was doing and I arrowed down to read some of the comments and saw yours. You can't go wrong with God so she made a good choice in becoming a minister. God bless her!

  • @Crissislandgirl Um hmm.. In fact, she has a youtube page under the name Sister Perri

  • @Yahcna Oh okay. I'm gonna check out her Youtube page under that name. Thanks for the info.

  • Beyonce Senior!

  • hilariously awesome!!

  • Yes it was great decade of music!

  • looks like hallie berry's hotter sister

  • i love this 80's electro soul done with roland 808 !!!

  • In The dark studio shots..she resembles HALLE BERRY imo

  • Awesome song. And I'm just a 28 year old white boy. But, there was a definite soul/pop vibe about the songs that were produced during this era. It has such a clean almost airy sound to it. I dig it. Makes me think of my childhood growing up in Blackhawk Country Club in the late 80's-mid-90's. God, what kick ass memories.... Reminds me of my mom's 560 SL Mercedes back in the late 80's.

  • YO BACK TO THE NEW JACK SWING MOTHER FUCKERS

    STILL LOVE THE SAME SHIT

  • the 80s were a different time...mostly cool and laid back and fun! i MISS the 80s!!!

  • she wanted him in the car to stop his aweful dancing :)

  • where did u go karina?

  • Dam, that's a nice Mercedes! 80's 560 SEC Convertible. Classic, I'd take a ride with Pebbles in that.

  • that's the jam...damn i miss the 80's........djb

  • Lmbao! I used to jam to this cut back in the day. But on the real, if dude even went through the surburs walking and do half mike -jackson steps, he would get jacked something terrible. Cops would have to come save him! Beyonce str8 swagger jacked Pebs looks too.

  • She is great but she gave TLC a very hard time she controlled them too much.

  • the dancing in this video is hilarious!!!
