Paula Abdul - Forever Your Girl (Official Music Video)

[@toshomni9478]

People have forgotten how huge Paula Abdul was. For quite a while it was like she couldn't put out a song or video that wasn't an instant classic.

[@musicalmelodies3595]

Paula had that 2/3 year reign where she was putting hit after hit. After dancing in Southern California for years for the Los Angeles Lakers she stepped into the music scene and deff grabbed 1988-1990 by the balls

[@dwaynereed3675]

Oh i remember. It was early 90s. I was around 13 or 14. I was in love and still am. Her sytle and that voice!!!

[@bmbxbts]

@@musicalmelodies3595 And 1991. She had two #1 singles that year; Rush, Rush & The Promise of a New Day

[@TravelinBand747]

True. Her videos aired constantly on MTV and VH1.

[@D3N6A]

I haven’t forgotten

[@ProdigyJay]

Paula REALLY needs to redo this video with all the kids in it all grown up! Who’s with me?!

[@FClub_Manila]

Trevor Wright is one of them

[@dharmawannab]

I support this comment 💯% 😁

[@codiestrauss9270]

I don't know if you know but Elisha wood was in this video he's the guy who played in the movie The Faculty.

[@DeloresMcBride-uw7pb]

​@@codiestrauss9270Which one is he? I didn't recognize him in this music video.

[@codiestrauss9270]

@@DeloresMcBride-uw7pb you have to type in Elisha wood in Paula Abdul video on Google and it will show you him It will be to hard to say which one he is cause there to many kids but he's the one in the office and he breaks the pencil in half

No, she did not need backup dancers. Just Paula on stage with a mic and all is good in the world

[@derp8575]

Observe 1:12. That is the sexualization of children. The past may have felt like a friendlier time, but Hollywood was still pushing their evil ways onto the incredulous masses through sight and sound. Listen to Paula's buddy, Janet Jackson, sing her song "All for You". Read the lyrics of that song and look at the album cover and tell me those were "lighter" times.

[@jenglamuzina3332]

It was just as messed up just better hidden

[@user-pwgmat]

この曲を初めて聴いたのは、35年くらい前で、当時私は中学生でした。同級生のお友達が、お父さんのお仕事でサンフランシスコに一年くらい行って帰って来た時に、私に教えてくれた思い出の曲です！私にとっては初めて触れた洋楽で、ミュージックビデオもこれが初めてで、すごくかっこいい曲とダンスだなって、こうゆう音楽を日本で見たことがなかったので、感動したことを今でも思い出として残っています。

[@alanguzman6279]

Lindos recuerdos y nuevas experiencias

[@masakisato0224]

同じぐらいの年代でしょうね。当時僕は高校生で、テレビから流れてきたワインのCMでこの曲を知りました。 その頃ぐらいから、CMでかかる曲がテロップに出てきたので、この曲を知ってからレコード屋さんに行って探したのを覚えてます。 ノリが良く楽しそうで、今でもたまに聴いています。 CM：サントリーカリフォルニア「いけいけワイン。」ポーラアブドゥル

[@bridgetmurphyv]

you should have an 80s party

[@BeezoHow]

That would be awesome! Gotta find my leg warmers! (Wonder if they still sell hair mousse?) LOL!

[@MsJamiewoods]

Yes, the 80s were a great decade music wise. I was in my late teens and 20s through the decade. I spent a lot of Friday and Saturday evenings, and some Thursdays, too, at Appleton, Wis.-area dance clubs. My favorite was Skyline Video Nightclub as one could watch all those great music videos as well as the folks dancing. They just do not make music like the great stuff of the 80s anymore. Most of the performers are either dormant, retired or dead (Whitney Houston comes to mind).In summer 1989 I landed a job as an overnight announcer on a Top-40 radio station in Platteville, Wis. where I was attending college. It was cool getting paid to play the great tracks of the day.

[@artbeets5999]

That opening “Hey, baby!!! Gotta remember..” makes me smile every single time 🖤

[@sdalt001]

Listen to this song for that exact moment.

[@lovelyone4252]

When vibing there’s no real fighting. Even if it’s a vulgar song. It’s just the energy feel at the moment. Like I listen to this to balance my overall happy vibes. Gangsta rap for adrenaline, reminiscent of hardships but mostly to exercise or for energy. R&B, NeoSoul for heart and emotions. Time is an illusion. Aging rapidly isn’t necessary

[@bryanbond7919]

[@taleealee2917]

💙Paula music is nostalgic 💛

[@terryvanloan3870]

Her tapdancing to the part of "girl you know i love you" was so on point, it's beyond insane. Skills, beauty, and moves to match or be desired, what more do you want or need? Born in 78, so this 80-90's genre was a blessing to be a part of and grow up in. 46 now and still one of my favorite songs, yes I'm a female, but she had me mesmerized!!

I remember this from '89, but my most vivid memory of it was from the summer of 2001. I was chatting with my manager in the grocery store I was working in back then. We were closing for the night, and this song came over the store radio, with Paula's "Hey baby!" prompting us to both laugh and go, "Ooh, do you remember this one?" Good times!

I have a lot of 80's favourites, but this song just has that magical glimmer, that melancholic sweet golden sound. We all know Paula ain't no Celine or Whitney, but she still manages to hit the feels with this one. I much prefer this 7" Remix over the album mix. It just has that magic!

I prefer this version as well, hands down. And I agree, something about this song just feels like magic.
