Oh, wow! I so completely enjoyed this one, Peri. (Yes, I'm still working through the older videos...) It so reminded me of my old black "Members Only" jacket and white cotton clothes... I miss those days. :-) In '85 I was in my 2nd year of college, playing entirely too much pool in the dorm, and well on my way to ruining a perfectly good G.P.A.
I am about 2 days behind on my video watching, having to skip around a bit to catch up. Glad I didn't skip this one. I hope you will make it available on the site for download. It will be great on my work out tape right next to Aretha's Respect.
Well, I'm pushing things a bit here, because although I wrote the song, I recorded it with a band who have not "signed up" to let me manage their output (if you see what I mean?)
Peri, that was AWESOME (and SO much better than most of the other dreck that was actually released in 1985), plus it still sounds fresh even today. Video was great as well.
Very fun video - Cool song too. It definitely sounds '85 (or a bit earlier), but holds up nicely. Your voice has improved with age, but it was quite acceptable then. So, the A&R man, what bands DID he sign?
Your so cool Peri! So so talented. That ONE person said you didnt know how to sing, and he was wrong. Just goes and shows you how the entertainment biz is.
I loved the video- It matched perfectly with the song. Love the effects, i wonder if it took you a while to do? Theres one part where the effects look like lips in the middle, i thought it was cool.
I believe it was another A&R man who said the Beatles were a flash in the pan and would never make it big - I am not a professional judge of music but I know what sounds good to me and that is why I am subscribed and own a PeriUrban cd.
