Awsum song ..pity no official vid came out ..I luv how she fererred to Slick Rick & Dru Down way b4 they became big .. thanks for putting this up ..cheers
Me too. I used to love this song and I like how Mariah sampled this song for Heartbreaker and how her husband Nick Cannon and Nivea remade Let Me Be Your Angel for their hit Main Girl.
When I learned that Mimi sampled this for Heartbreaker, I gagged. This is one of my favorites. I can't beleive how some people think that she remade Mariah's song Heartbreaker. I had to let one person know that Stacy was out way before Mimi ever existed and Mimi sampled her song.
@mcboypower True. In fact when Jermaine Dupri started to work with her, he was shocked when she suggested they try sampling for Wu-Tang Clan songs. Mimi's husband Nick Cannon sampled Stacy's classic Let Me Be Your Angel for his hit Main Girl.
omg!!!!!!!! i've been searching for this song since 1983. i never knew the name or artist. Stacy Lattisaw?!?!? thats crazy!! this was pre-breakdance back in my day. omg, i've got tears in my eyes now!! this song just took 25 off my life!!!!
this was back when everything in music was just fun and video games and break dance were starting to take off. no worries just fun, but now days people are in one scandal after another and everyone is stepping on one anothers heads, i want the early 80's BACK!!!!!! :(
Stacy Lattisaw's "Attack Of The Name Game" Song is Written Produced and Arranged By Narada Michael Walden For Perfection Light Productions and Went #26 In 1982 Charts.
This song was my favorite song when I was in 6th grade- and I STILL love it- for over a decade I was trying to find this song so I could buy it- noone knew the song i described as "the name game with the cute girl and the alien with 3 hands" or who sang it- everyone thought I was making it up and that it was not real-after about 12 years of searching I finally found this album as a CD on eBay- AWSOME!!!
Wow , I was bout 8yrs old when this was out, and I was upset when i couldn't sound like the space sound. lol.. now i know why I couldn't. ha ha.. kids. Much love though
i was watching 120 minutes on mtv2 and i am sure this was on except that there was no signing or rapping in it. The video was animated with a white background and different drawings if anyone knows what i have just described please contact me and tell me what it is. cheers
I am a big Mariah fan. She might have said it. I can't say that Mariah spoke on it publicly or not. However, I have since learned that it was in the CD cover which is required.
she was a true cutie pie
