to say i was obsessed with this song when it came out would be an understatement. my cassingle was played to death. i recall the b-side being a pretty appalling ballad. i'll always have a soft spot for melissa though. and simon baker is so much hotter now than back in the day.
I think the message in the subtext of this song is that she wants to have a long term commited relationship within the confines of holy matrimony.....it's subtle.
i can't tell. is that really simon baker or do you yanks and poms think every aussie man looks like simon baker? not that there's anything wrong with that.
her singing sucks, the lyrics suck big time... but god dayum she is HOT! to me this song is like the movie showgirls, you know its bad but you can't stop watching.
God I love this song....played it over and over as a 17 year old. Just goes to show that crap singing, bad dancing and poor acting skills will not stop one getting to number 1 on the charts.
This song was the rage way back in 91. Listening to it now, it's a pretty awful song, though Mel was very hot. She was on E Street back then, and shot to fame fast. I wonder what happened to her? She seemed to have fallen off the radar very quickly.
She's still gorgeous today. I loved this song when it first came out, a pity that it's not got more attention with youtube users especially as it went to No.1
The way they used to promote their lame musical projects during the show was funny. What about the mute guy and the Kelly and the other teen queens. Funny clip and amusing to see Simon Baker (Denny).
Love Melissa, this song was so big in its day. I went to aussie boys and bought the black and white stripes pants gee I thought I was hot, mayb e not!! What about Simon Baker as one of the back up dancers, wonder if thats on his CV? Go Mel don't worry she will be back!
Simon Baker? Didnt even notice till I saw the comments. I only watched to see a young Melissa Tkautz. Ssssssooooo hot! Tho catchy song as well
