Fame - Irene Cara

[asianbbgurl]

hehe. kpop star's supearls did a cover. it was beautiful~

[MaterialGirlMad1989]

When I watched this film I was dancing round my livingroom I pestered my mum and dad to send me to stage school after seeing this film I thought it would be like Fame probably minus the legwarmers as it was the 90s lol. x x

[joebstarsurfer]

A line from fame stuck in my mind when the dance student said if i cant dance i will do drama.Its useful when youre getting fucked over.

[nerissi]

I've always loved this song

[perlayacky]

el glee de los 80, muy vacana esta serie

[raulrodri602]

This song is stupid, it was never sampled.

[wstshine]

@raulrodri602 what the fuck is wrong with you, how not being sampled makes it stupid ? this is an inspiring song (as the movie) , keeps you going against all odds.I don`t necessarily think about "fame" but all the things you dream to accomplish.Man, your comment pissed me off..

[TheMyseven]

cHanging gEnrE ^_^

rUby eTo kayA mo?? mgA ganto na tugtugan natin wEw hEhehe. . .

[SuperRickyv]

[krkraz]

Lost my gloves.

[marialuzken]

BUENA BULLA :D!!!

[puteriamanda1]

[RaidenBrent]

this song is my favorite....

[thecoolj45221]

great song

[groofoot]

Debbie Allen and I have the same hometown....

[ThirdGuyDucks]

@groofoot How odd that she never mentioned you in an interview.

[LifeSavingTipsToday]

An original like this cannot be remade...no matter how hard they try. Have to give them credit for trying...haven't even seen the new movie...didn't think it would be something that I would want to see...EVER...meanwhile...I can watch this over and over again and it never gets old.....well, I might be a bit biased...for one reason or another....LOL

[funnycookbook]

@LifeSavingTipsToday er i think they can make it. the real test is whether someone as prejudiced as urself can like it lol. yes u are bais3d lol!!!!!!!!!

[coldplay109]

Before Glee... there was FAME :D Excellent song :3

[Holz4xa]

Happy to know the singer of this great song, thanks to ladypendragon and youtube.

[dol381]

mes copines se moquent de moi parce que c'est "vieux". j'men fiche, j'adore, c'est tout!♥

[Fireheart16th]

Just makes me wanna get up and dance! :D

[jjojjorge]

That is some awesome singing, Irene !!!

[cameron600X]

Was the movie fame any good? The reviews look bad.

[eroupopper]

I remember dance class when i was in high school! my dance teacher made the students dance to this song. It was funny, but i love this song

[dimitriosmichael]

one of the most incredible pieces of work in history ... seriously

[theanitha231]

espectacular mera cuca

[centralviva]

the fame remake was awful and hollywood is doing it to Dirty Dancing just leave the 80's classic alone!

[WinterWonder99]

@centralviva They're also remaking Footloose......it's only a matter of time before they do Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, St. Elmo's Fire, The Outsiders.....

[jnctf]

@WinterWonder99 I hope they don't remake "Flashdance" with today's stupid music, but I guess it's only a matter of time. What happened to originality?

[TurtleMooseKitty]

@WinterWonder99 Oh my god I am pretending I never heard about a remake of footloose maybe it'll go away

[miamiviceali]

@centralviva seriously they are just making themselves look like asses when they try to recapture our lightning in their bottle!

[DestroyerofSouls666]

@centralviva ---and the re-make of Footloose was garbage too!!! Notice how that re-make left the theaters within a blink of an eye. If Hollywood/NY can't come up with anything new and original, then America is in store for a dull future.

[marna72]

this song is so great and the movie and the show can never be remade!! you can never top the best!!!

[BrianUndercover]

And this song wins the oscar vs Star Wars: The empire strikes back? omg NO FUCKING WAY

[jemmabond]

Whoever thought that a remake of this classic would be a good idea should be shot. Hands up if you agree...

[AbsinthianEnvy]

@jemmabond THIS. <3

[yoututeddy]

@jemmabond you mean thumbs up... :P btw I agree

[behrjet]

@jemmabond how bout the electric chair

[LeonardosBabyGirl11]

My school performed Fame my junior year, Mrs. Sherwood was my second favorite role I've ever played. Wonderful! :)

[arristotal34]

You had to be around at the time. It was good then, and is still brilliant now..!!!

[CharlieLikesCheesex3]

let's go back in time and pretend that fame is a film that has only been made once. it's the best film ever, and i mean the original film that i masterbate to.

[WrestlingRuleZz]

29 People could not fly

[tomloft2000]

she sounds a lot like Donna Summer.

[alcagr]

That intro!!!! <3 Oh '80s! And I was born in 1990!

[WarriorOfWriters]

modern musical adaptations are so unoriginal. I love this

[electrictroy2010]

I know this is 80s, but the way it starts sound like an old Disco hit from Bee Gees

.

[SuperCliffBurton]

I prefer the way Adagio does this song.

[Pelozor]

Oh Lord I wish I could enter a bar and hear this...

[vampiregirlbiteme98]

the original is gonna live forever x the remake is gonna die of shame !!xx no one can remake a classic and expect it to out do the original!! <3 xxx

[Kmoura70]

Very Good!

[SarahElisabethMaria]

do i hear her corectly "people will see me and die?"

Figuratively then i guess :-)

[Dalco85]

@SarahElisabethMaria I believe it´s people will see me and cry. :)

[rastagrowth]

fuck fame,is the worst of the music.this singer hasn´t got any idea

[iinsanebaby]

@rastagrowth haha.. i actually didn't understand what you wanted to say... could you rephrase or something.. :D

[Mrsmusicandsoccer]

Listening to the songs that my mum hears is sometimes the coolest thing ever :P

[watked]

i wish i could live in the 80s forever everything after the 80s suck

[h8aification]

@watked 90's were alright..I was born then

[insanelylogical]

A classic from 1980. What a way to start this fabulous decade.

[theredocktober]

I always liked this song, to me it speaks of Perseverance unlike no other.

[hamhamm00]

can any one upload the old version...with high quality audio...=)

[xdylanwx]

this is my song on xbox live to piss people off!!!

[kimiso159]

The first made movie of fame was the best of the rest. The remade versions are of the most shittest made of films ever made. The original cast and music will outlive those who think they can out do the best ever made originals of all time. Fame i love you. xxxxx

[MusicLoverGirlie]

One of 1982's finest!

[emayl]

when I feel down and listen to this song.. it just gives me hope and makes me follow my heart and my dreams

[theredocktober]

@emayl This song fires up my ( Ambition Reserve ) InTo Over Drive !! I watched the Movie Fame, talk about Perseverance unlike no other.

[CharaZzify]

this is like the tenth time i listen to this !!!!

[CharaZzify]

28 people aint going to heaven lol

[CharaZzify]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO(danc­ing randomly to this,while lip singing like a retard)!!!!!!!!!

[expressivechild]

This is one of the most inspirational songs for me!

[emeraldstream]

Omg Irene Cara. What to a voice. She really does got what it takes. Please God let me sing like that

[MrLogoman007]

Glee has nothing on this.

[fa11234]

@MrLogoman007

glee is shit.

[CatieKat99]

28 people won't live forever...

[408lilgray]

28 people will never have fame

[107098]

can anyone tell me where i can get the tabs for the guitar solo?

[06quino]

ang ganda poh talga ng tugtug ng fame

[AnimePRFury]

@DrusyRicher26

*busts out a dance move* in response to this video :P

[CharaZzify]

@AnimePRFury same here wooooooWOooooo

[nashismox3]

I think the 80' s was the renassaince of the contemporary times. It happens every 3 hundred years or so. I mean think about it, how did people feel after having both Beethoven and Mozart and the many performing at their best in just one particular time, I call it art... I call it magic... I call it fame.

[marottt]

@nashismox3, well, think you exaggerate, but yes, 60's through 80's was a gold period for music, so above the current mediocre music of the 2000's

[ThankGodforUTube]

@marottt don't forsake the 50's...lol

[marottt]

@ThankGodforUTube, of course, actually the roots of what was to come from the 60's started in the 50's, I think everything started with The Platters actually..... jajaja!! (joking, but not in the first part of the comment)

[TraffordReds9]

The Fame of the 80's was all about performing - all about wanting to be the best you could be as a singer, dancer, musician, writer, actor, teacher. It was never about wanting to be the biggest 'celebrity' or about making the most money. Now, with all the 'talent' shows, that's ALL it's about, and that's very, very sad.

[CynJohansen03]

@TraffordReds9 I have to agree. As a kid I remember wanting to be these high school students. I wanted to dance and sing and act and just enjoy it all for what it was.

[Rambokala]

@TraffordReds9 Oh fuck you. The human nature has always been the same, it hasn't suddenly changed. People did it for the same reasons they do it today. Oh god what a loathful comment.

[TraffordReds9]

@Rambokala And the only way you could express yourt opinion was to say "fuck you"? Classy. We're all entitled to our opinions but there's no need to be rude about it. I stand by my opinion, you stand by yours.

[Rambokala]

@TraffordReds9 Hmm, did you stop reading at the "fuck you" or are you just blind? I think my message included more than just "Fuck you". Besides your opinion is based on nothing.

[TraffordReds9]

@Rambokala Nope, but if you're gonna throw that in there, nothing else you say really matters. You've already shown your backside. And my opinion is based on the many reality tv and 'talent' shows that have graced our screens over the past decade. The Simon Cowells of this word are more interested in who is marketable than in who is talented. Invariably, i.e there are obvious exceptions. And that is my opinion. I didn't post it for agreement.

[Rambokala]

@TraffordReds9 Lmao. Your opinion is actually based on things you've seen in TV? I think we're finished here.

[TraffordReds9]

@Rambokala Not sure where else I'm supposed to have watched these shows I'm actually talking about, re my first comment...

[bassemsaad]

Progressive metal band ADAGIO covered it beautifully!

[keen14you]

Fantastic song from the '80's, and fantastic message from the film... Success isn't won by looks or knowing the right people, but talent, dedication, and inner strength. BRING BACK IRENE CARA!!!!!!!!!

[SmokeBojangles]

I Remember that movie.Great Intro,Cool Guitar Beginning,and I Saw Titties.Hay AT That Age,Lucky titties was not the first Thing I Remembered.

[kotraquin]

before American idol and stupid reality shows people had to put in hard work and EARN FAME!

[MrMaukka10]

Nice. A million nices.

[ideagirlconsulting]

fame is on the list of performers for CMW 2011 but I think this is the movie :)

[MaterialGirlMad1989]

Oh my god I loved this film I wanted to be a child of "Fame" I love the scene where they are dancing on the Taxi. I loved everything about the 80s it was great this film is a time less classic that will never fade. x x

[cheekywun2]

I used to love this show! Poor old Leroy! Never could catch a break lol

[MrMaukka10]

They (hopefully me too) wil listen to this in the 2030's like some listen to rockabilly (80s stuff). The centuries do not matchbut you should cath the idea.

[urenhusky10]

26 people won't live forever or even learn how to fly...

[thelongandwindingroa]

she realy made it...she lived forever....this is song is till so good efter more than 30 years....

[krkraz]

Thumbs up. Remember, SIskel and Ebert. Now, sing me 'melancholy baby'.

[silvermistxd]

Yeahh !!

Original music and film are excellent Irene's Cara voice is perfect and the music from the 80's is very good in comparison to the new music

[acorntechnique]

The original movie was 100000% awesome!

The remake was limp, weak and disappointing.

If you agree give me a thumbs up!

[maisqpoesia9999lcg]

Inesquecível!! Vi o filme varias vezes...!!!!!!!!

[666Sirius]

absolutely amazing, i wasnt alive in the 80's but this is the best...the new fame is crap in compasion...this brings tears to my eyes...absolutely brilliant...this production will live forever...i love this song and the film...so good!! <3 FAME!!

[cheapcape]

(the original) FAME IS GONNA LIVE FOREVER!!

[scorzi]

Let's just pretend the remake doesn't exist and it will slowly die of shame.

[cheapcape]

@scorzi I vote for that!

[Jurg71]

@scorzi I second that one. I don't like some of these "re-imaginings". ugh. lol

[NateSean]

@scorzi Slowly? Are you going to be that merciful?

[emeraldstream]

@scorzi hahalol this is awesome

[poutyyface]

@scorzi Somebody actually tried to make a remake of this song?

[anirak90]

@scorzi The reason Hollywood makes so many remakes is because they have run out of original ideas- time for a new generation of screenwriters!

[najae808]

@anirak90 i totally agree. that's probably why a majority of the movies that are coming out now are based on books or comic book characters. no originality!

[thatkoolkatal]

@scorzi I could not agree with you more!!!

[sancho3124]

I agree the original is the best. Irene Cara was amazing. For the cast of FAME who are no longer with us, RIP Thanks for posting.

[messiasbra]

Chatinha essa musica...

[DaveWollenberg]

Billboard's #66 song of '80. Irene hit #4 in Billboard. Too bad she had to start smokin', It ruined that good voice of hers, right, gang? God bless!

[HuYacKeR]

One Of Best 80s

Beauty And Strong Song

Favourite <3

[CucNamCham]

@HuYacKeR - that time I just came to America - How can i listen to This American Song like This . Even Vietnamese Song is My language Too - I am So confuse In This New Country . Now i love it as My second HomeTown .

[000231846597]

Oh how to sing like her~

[ozmorphus]

The original is way better than the crappy new one.

[JuniperLee661]

@ozmorphus ....Who's the singer in the new one??

[rahadinugroho]

The bass line killer....i wonder who play bass for this song...

[montanatexasfloridaz]

23 people didnt live forever!

[rpmfc36]

@montanatexasfloridaz

they did live forever at least in my memories.

[Prophet776]

The new version just butchered this song, it was so lame. I had to search out the original to listen to just to get the new one out of my head.

This song has energy and is more uplifting, the new version just plods along with that crappy beat in a four four time and is almost depressing.

[ddesp]

i remember my sounds of my mother

[angelfrmabov32697]

this song rocks.... and i HATE 80's music

[cheapcape]

@angelfrmabov32697 Eighties music is awesome!!

[anubisoro]

Buenisima la cancion buenos recuerdos de mi niñez

[VBugattiV]

i loved Fame... the movie and the series.... they knocked it then but its a classic and still is x

[silky113]

I simply love this music, it's awesome!

[OhBibi1]

i love it soo much it's much better than the newer version

[expressivechild]

Nothing like hit songs of the 80's and 90's! Timeless!

[TheNicola31]

i grow up watching this show,my mum told me funny story about myself from when i was a baby, (every day after lunch my mum and me would watch fame,id sit in my pram and watch it,when the song came on she would turn it up and i would always start danceing like crazy,i would jump and riggle about like mad,i was only two,i wish now that id only seen myself danceing it would have been funny and cute,im gessing that i just wanted to live forever,lol,xxxxxxx

[astonisz]

cara: "expensive". Can you phone her,hmm?

[clarkbell]

I know it was 1980 but this song sounds so 1975... maybe 1977. That is a good thing! And yes it is disco.

[EFFROSDR2]

The original is the best. I also grew up with these series of FAME .

[TheCasao86]

@EFFROSDR2 i fantasised i was zico playing footie to this track :)

[maacmza]

i grew up with this serie and song... i love it!!!!

[MrDantastic01]

The remake sucked. The singer who tried to re sing the greatest Movie song hit in history was lame beyond belief. Not her fault...

[TheMrElise]

Irene Cara is amazing!

[2bigboobs01]

This is fame!

[SkellaWolf]

Who started dancing when the song started?

[Zambobway1996]

@SkellaWolf I did

[imeth]

[zaidicbb]
