Angela Winbush -- so tragically slept-on. Loved her songs back in the day!

[@blakkone4000]

She’s amazing!!!

[@bmw3842]

Not slept on.rather than MTV playing all types of music ,rather they discriminated against black artist.When these songs could've been played to the masses .I worked at Atlantic Records in the early 90's and the names they would call black music .

[@lovejoypain]

Oh the golden 80s..the passion, the romance!

[@te4888]

[@719kai719]

You gotta love the style of the 80's! Anglea Winbush is a great singer andin my opinion has never gotten allof the recognition that she deserves as a singer and songwriter!

[@ICOMEOUTSMOKIN]

[@Electux777]

6:37 Oh my goodness, God her voice awakens my soul everytime she hits that note! 😍🙌🏽💯

[@assaultislove]

A seriously underrated and overlooked singer/songwriter/producer...In a fair world, Angela would be as highly regarded as Anita Baker or Whitney Houston (RIP) were in the 80's

[@quincymcooper5453]

Angela knows she cam saaaaaaaaaaang her ass off.

[@melanoidmarkus]

She is so underrated

[@blakkone4000]

Extremely underrated!!!

[@marcbbaby]

Wow... I love this song a video...what a groove. Angela is a bad chick... sweet pretty face, hot body, great voice and a songwriter and producer to boot...

[@ICOMEOUTSMOKIN]

one of my favorites by Angela Winbush.

[@sherah1212]

OK I am dancing to this right now and getting my groove on! Angela Winbush would put most of these high paid singers today to SHAME

[@Gapandgold]

yes angela. yes...the 80's

[@Bob_Dub]

I wish I had a time machine, even it could only go to the '80's! They just don't make this calibre of music any more. :(

[@eugenemckinney8736]

A'ngela Lisa Winbush was at the top of her game in 1987 with her Sharp album and became Ronald Isley wife after partner Rene Moore This sexy woman is a talented singer. songwriter and producer let's give Angela her flowers ❤

[@imtiredoftheseniggas6618]

One of my all time favorite female voices following Anita Baker, Stephanie mills, Melisa Morgan, Whitney Houston, Regina Belle and Tina turner ...

[@joejas4976]

Beautiful Gorgeous Angela Winbush I Love All Of Her Songs And Videos I Seen Her In Concert At Apollo Theater In The 80s Up There In New York.

[@BobbyTurner-xn4if]

Such a sexy, classiy lady. Love her voice, her talent. May God continue to bless you, Angela.❤

[@omarmccray3282]

Love this song, it also sounds like Mercedes boy a little bit by pebbles.

[@blakkone4000]

Definitely the same sound.

[@greggmitchell2392]

One of my all-time fave Angela Winbush tracks, made even better by the remix by Keith Cohen, who was on fire during this time. What we need is a deluxe CD reissue of her 1987 debut solo album with all the 12" mixes of the singles included - 2021?!

[@tiffanimorris7127]

Loving this 12" extended remix video version. This has the same remixer, Louis Silas Jr. who also remixed Pebble's Mercedes Boy and was hoping to follow the same crossover chart success Mercedes Boy had on the pop charts. It's still a bop and I love to see Angela's versatility with different genres and able to hang with the other r&b dance queens of the time like Jody Watley, Karyn White, Vanessa Williams, and Pebbles. This was played a lot in the clubs at the time and packed the dancefloors! Angela's debut album was 🔥🔥🔥🔥. I actually prefer this song to the Prince inspired single Run to Me, but both were bangers depending on your mood. And then the quiet storm one two three punch of Angel, Hello Beloved, and You Had a Good Girl made this debut a must have!!

[@ants8527]

Angela always been fine I always liked here music since the 80s🤗🤗🤗

[@Cassie86R]

wow i luv the 80's music

[@erichargrove6992]

I so love her Lady of Class!

[@UhHuhHer85]

[@jwalker9537]

Top top tune!

[@sirisongbird]

Wow I never knew THIS AW!! I just knew Rene and Angela. She was a Bond girl

[@OfficialSmiteShorts]

Miss Angela is a #Goddess 💕🦋

[@wardelljefferson2446]

[@AlainDize]

I LOVE it !

[@eddielucheano3977]

smooth !

[@regcart]

is this the remix version? I love me some Angela Winbush.....#Icon of St. Louis, MO

[@blakkone4000]

It’s one of the remixes. She has a similar version on a “Best of” collection released by Rhino Records. It’s similar to one of Pebbles’ “Mercedes Boy” mixes.

[@Offthbadan]

Still a sexy song!!!

[@tenishastreat7496]

Indeed!

[@ErikaMcQueen89]

I've always thought she looked like one of my Barbies

[@kevinmansell8746]

child you still playing with your barbie dolls lol

[@skaye8934]

​@@kevinmansell8746😂

[@cjmarsh504]

I see she was in my hometown! New Orleans

[@aribienasseri3723]

fantastic bordel,such memories thankssssss

[@dja-troit6608]

Im just clicking on Angela's videos and I cant recall ever hearing this before...Im giving it a thumbs up along with her other classics we all should know....but I did click onto a song called Run to me and thats the only joint I have to give a thumbs down with a video attached to it

[@nicolas76500]

Merci de France big up

[@MalikDJefferson]

Remixed By Louil Silas Jr. & Keith Cohen Additional Production Jeff Lorber

[@oholm09]

[@mcdonoghrahloh459]

New Orleans before Katrina!!

[@cjmarsh504]

Yep

[@Ninethborn]

🥰🥰 🍫 🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫

[@dky_1353]

Did l just see a cameo by Debbie Gibson?

[@carolmelfilmproductions]

😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@RBS_]

*....DON'T MESS WITH ANGIE! (**3:35**)* ....this version is the 12" remix, done by Louis Silas Jr., who famously remixed Pebbles' Summer of '88 smash, "Mercedes Boy"....Angela appears to have filmed in New Orleans...Unfortunately, the tune stalled at #47 R&B, Fall of 1988...SHUCKS..(1:46).... .

[@StuffOffYouStuff]

This has to be the same producers as pebbles, Mercedes Boy?

[@tiffanimorris7127]

Good ear They were both on mca records, so different producers but the same in house remixer, Louis Silas Jr

[@ecoman32]

Looks very kinda familiar too the recording of Pebbles'es Mercedes Boy, must be the same producers' Duo... Kayo and Babyface !??

[@suavehinrg]

Angela composed and produced all her own songs. She also produced for other artists such as the Isley Brothers, Stephanie Mills and Sheena Easton among others.

[@tmontyb10011]

This is the remix. The original album mix is different.

[@kevinmansell8746]

i also like the album version i have her first CD and second man listen to Please Bring Your Love Back she rocked it from the real thing album

[@assaultislove]

Charlie Wilson produced Mercedes Boy. I couldn't believe that, but it's true. But this version definitely sounds like it

[@qov9111]

Ok but this sounds like the single version of mercedes boy by pebbles

[@pierstheoneandonly]

I think it's important, though, to distinguish between 'sound' and 'content'. As commented downthread in the context of her relative obscurity, AW's output was less 'poppy' than that of Whitney and others. Listening to the Pebbles track, while it does have the same sound/production signature and dynamic, as a *composition* and likewise in sentiment, it's a tame and frothy piece of pop-fluff with a vague celebration of materialism. The verses sound like something by Madonna and the chorus could be sung by Bananarama. Whereas 'C'est Toi' an altogether classier offering: sassy yet sophisticated; passionate yet poised; it has depth, emotion and 'flava' - perhaps too much for the larger pop audience of the time and, especially, now.

[@marcusrob02]

BINGO!

[@imtiredoftheseniggas6618]

Well she sings way better than pebbles so

[@blakkone4000]

😂😂😂

[@virginiaharvey]

trouble when you own hot property everyone wants it but at least my albums got distributed to professional friends in industry,this helps my writing enormously.thks,v

[@Starr0809]

In the 80's we all should know this reason why she was so slept on, and was cuz she wasn't light enough.

[@Worme95]

@Starr0809 She's no darker than Whitney Houston.

[@philmoufarrege]

This song rocks but the film clip needs more palmtrees, pink graffiti neon font and white lamborhinis driving into the sunset

[@acreyc]

Why can't play on mobile this is 2011

[@daughterofzion2905]

She looks like Gabrielle Union.

[@OGGilmoregirlz1]

Luv the song and the video ... but couldn't they find a white guy with some rhythm to dance with her???

[@plaindealing711]

Her man look a bit like Don Lemon lol

[@kevinmansell8746]

she is all single and aint playing she is a pastor now

[@plaindealing711]

Kevin Mansell I'm referring to her "man" of interest in the video.

[@kevinmansell8746]

am just giving you an update i know who you referring too .

[@Starr0809]

@Worme95 This was so long ago, I had to see what you was even talking about.Well, anyway, I don't think so,but I do know is that Angela just wasn't pop enough like Whitney was. And I'm sure as hell not saying that pop music is my thing because it's not. Angela music wins over Whitney crack head butt all day long, and who is she anymore anyway?

[@quababy5911]

Look a lil like Gabriel union

[@eugenemckinney8736]

My mother always says she looks Syleena Johnson

[@deputydogg9993]

ths video is the most wack she made
