One Man Show is on my all-time fave concert movies ever list along with Dire Straits Alchemy, The Police Synchronicity, Pink Floyd Pulse, U2 Rattle & Hum, Led Zeppelin The Song Remains the Same and of course, Woodstock 3 Days of Peace & Music. There are others but I can't think of them right now.

SO CLASSY, the way she moves, the face she has, both a woman and a man in the same amazing body. Grace Jones, you are perfect in this video, you sing it really well, YOU deserve the wrongfully used compliment of being ICONIC. Thanx, baby, you belong forever to My (own & personal) Private Life, and the music too (Sly and Robby, sooooo good)
She's a sweetheart. I always remembered Grace from my childhood only briefly it's only until recently I've had a chance to really sit down and look and listen to her work and I must say her artistry is really very impressive IMAO.
I loved this Grace track when it came out ...didn't know it was a COVER. Both versions are brilliant in different ways. The lyrics could have been written for Jones herself.....'feeling like a woman...looking like a man...' Guess that's why her producers chose it....this being a live version it's faster than the album track itself, which is more moody though.
@molosomari Not at all. This version is what most people know and i was a huge hit..... Its Sly and Robbie produced. Totally different to Flash and the Pan.
Paris. 1987/8. Charles Jourdan shoes and CJ double breasted trench coat on and walking to Espace Cabin for dinner with friends... I had my Sony walkman cassette tape on (earplugs)with this song playing and YES! It was raining. Magical!!
But credit also to George Young (brother of Angus and Malcolm) and Harry Vanda who wrote this, and Sly and Robbie for drums/bass/production....sublime
Grace Jones is one of my great influences... one of the few famous female musicians who emanates real power and control instead of prancing around on the stage like an oversexed marionette doll.
did william shatner cover this song by any chance ?she kinda sounds abit like his style (rocket man &common people).but a lot better . its all tongue in cheek stuff
I watched "One Man Show" again at some crazy hour today - around 5-6 am, not having gone to bed yet. It's so hypnotic! She inspires me as a performer/singer.
Why are people talking about Lady Gaga ? Grace Jones is excellent and her music will endure. Lady Gaga is trash pop and she will last about as long as her meat dress.
@jajadx I love Grace and I am a fan of Lady G but Grace slays her. Also the musical times are differ. Grace was at the top in the 80' and 90's and GaGa is slaying the modern times.
@jajadx You have to listen to the lyrics of grace, then compare them to Gaga. Nothing more amazing than grace's . And you really can't compare them because they're from different times.
@PaijePeace Excellent point except for the fact that Grace didn't write a lot of her own material. This was written by George Young and Harry Vanda and performed originally by their band Flash and the Pan (George also formed the Easybeats and invested in his little brother's band, AC/DC). And of course Demolition Man was a Police song.
@PaijePeace Oh, and let's not forget that La Vie en rose was Edith Piaf and She's Lost Control was Joy Division. Now that I look back, she didn't write much of her own material at all, and the music was almost all written by the incomparable dub duo of Sly and Robbie.
This song was written by and first recorded by Flash and the Pan. It was on their debut record that included their only US hit "Hey, St. Peter". I remember playing their version of this song as a DJ at a student radio station. I always loved this song and only recently discovered Grace Jones covered it....
@sammiejoroks: you know your'e good looking when you can pass as a beautiful woman and a handsome man. (ex.: Tilda Swinton). Grace sings: "feelin like woman, lookin like a man"
@FilleCent that's what they said about Rap--- music is music- it doesn't have to have singers in it- oh and Grace CAN SANG--- that's right - I said SaNG- if ya don't know then don'y bother- you won't get it if you haven't by now.
Guys, Grace Jones is not Lady GaGa. Stop trying to compare them. You can like one, and you can like both. Don't be such a douche about which one you think is better.
Gaga is a piece of talentless crap. Grace was Grace before Grace that's the difference. She was a female with attitude when it was dangerous to be. She once attacked a British tv presenter on a show when he asked her a question and didn't wait for the answer before looking at another guest on the show.
Das waren noch Zeiten. Echt cool 1982. Werde ich nie vergessen. War ne unvergessliche und sehr wandelbare Zeit. Vielen Dank für diesen Originalvideo. Mario
Ima 28yr old, and absolutely love Grace...However, I can remember why now, cause my sisters a tranny, and wen i was buzzed (cuse id smoke wit my sis of course), ths was all i listened 2, I dont blaze now, gota young family and her music brings back awesome memories...(stoner) but still gota love it...
Today I heard a version of this song on the radio. A man sung it and there was only a bass and another instrument... anyone know who's version is that?.
One of the best combos in musical history was teaming up Grace with Sly and Robbie. Fantastic! atmospheric and (bar perhaps one or 2 synth sounds) Timeless!
In 100 years time, people will forget about Lady Gaga, but still remember Grace Jones. That's the difference between passing fads and real music icons.
@papalolita I would not be so quick to dispose of Lady gaga in such a way. She is genuinely talented and we've only seen her pop side. As she flowers and matures we'll see more I can assure you. Also, people were dismissing Grace back in the day. I remember her rise to fame.
@papalolita I love Grace and gaga... but i dont like it when people compare them... you can't say that lady gaga wont be remembered coz she has only just started ... so we dont know what she might do in her life yet.. so you cant say she isnt as good... coz she has only just started.. and grace.. yes she is amazing and i love her.. but ATM.. alot of young people have no idea who she is... and its only really people who were born in the 80's that really do.
@clevm002 They lack the perspective to see nything beyond their generation. Their parents who grew up on the Motown era would have listened to this and had the same things to say about it that they have to say about Gaga.
