Yeah I used to love s*it like this! I remember dancing to this and ride on time when I was about 6 or 7. Just after 11 o'clock when the DJ just seemed to put on what he liked on after the more family friendly stuff like 'music man' or the bangles.
i was 19 when this song came out. I'm now almost 40. I still can't resist a move when I hear it. I bet the people in the building across the way wonder who the old guy is dancing. Probably should close the blinds.
for Martha Wash, your voice is a life's gift you have one of the best voices of the world, you looks so great ! anyway all my respect. Lex from south of France
i agree ,,, funny thing nobody realy knew that the model was a sex change ..... i do because i met her .... nice though ... but couldnt speak english lol daz xxxx
Martha faced lots of barriers because of her weight. She was labeled "unmarketable" because of her size, sued to receive proper credit and royalties as the vocalist on all of her songs. This spurred legislation making vocal credits mandatory on CDs and music videos.She ended upwith RCA Records as a part of the agreement, which led to her debut, self-titled solo album in 1993. Two of the songs hit number one on the dance charts.
@Rick4LB this is coming from a 21 year old guy, but it had been up to me back then in the early 90s, I would've included Martha in my music video to be the face of HER VOCALS and I'm not just saying this to be nice, but I believe in PUSHING THE ENVELOPE FOR EQUALITY. No way in hell I choose some dumbass skinny model who probably don't the capital of New York lol
She had no idea that after singing she would get the short end of the stick! Thats why she finally got her props after going to court! C&C Music Factory had to learn the hard way also with Everybody (Dance/Sweat) as well!! This singer has a voice that can't be copied!
We used to play this cd when we where going out, my sister and I loved it!!! Reminds us of our mum, who had to hear this like a million times! She never complained....
Ahh, takes me back, rickies Leeds 1990, eating chips covered in tomato sauce ( at 2.30am )in the kebab bar by Mr Craigs whilst tripping our tits off on strawberrys/purple ohms and watching the piss heads stagger about gipping and giving us wide eyed sweating steaming house guys weird looks.lol

It is a shame that people with great voices and not the body to match shouldn't be cast out because of it. she has a great voice.

I'm a Martha Wash fan for sure... but it's beyond me why she'd agree to sing on an album, and then let a "Model" appear in videos.
You're the greatest Martha!!!
