GROOVIN'!| FIRST TIME HEARING CeCe Peniston - Finally REACTION

[@andymageen5308]

Huge dance floor hit from the ‘90’s. Ce Ce had a big influence on late 90’s and early 2000’s female singers. ✌️

[@daniellaplume3840]

Couldn't have said it better

[@peterwalsh2470]

this sounds like a re-mix version? bass line is different. this one here kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZLTe61tbttoZ5I

[@LaptopLarry330]

This song is the single/radio edit version. As was the practice of most record labels at that time, the LP version was usually longer, or had a different sound mix, Extended Mix LP/CDs were even longer.

[@jasondaniels640]

MASSIVE!

This was the the beginning of the "House" era in dance music! It was a great time to go clubbing in the 90's! You need to give Robin S. - Show Me Love a listen!

[@AZambri1]

Absolutely it was and I surely did go clubbing. Every NYC club you can think of, I danced in nearly every weekend for years. Limelight, Palladium, Sound Factory, Tunnel, Club USA, Twilo, Roxy, Club Expo. One of my best friends was a promoter for Peter Gatien.

[@megamusictuber6017]

House is a music genre characterized by a repetitive four-on-the-floor beat and a typical tempo of 120 beats per minute. It was created by DJs and music producers from Chicago's underground club culture in the late 1970s, as DJs began altering disco songs to give them a more mechanical beat. She was still in diapers when house music started. Nevertheless, a nice song.

[@sharonlabrecque1655]

Just a point of information I was dancing to house music in the 70's! You are a couple of decades late 🤣

She's got one other awesome song worth reacting to from that era. Forgetting the name of it but she had MC Lyte and Yoyo and Petra, all big early 90s female hip hop artists, in the video as her homegirls rolling on the car with her lol. Update: found it! It's called "Keep on Walkin'."

A banging dance club hit back in it's day, and enhanced even more so, with the release of the hit Australian made movie "Priscilla: Queen of the Desert".

Great movie!!

I always think of that scene when hearing this song.

Jay & Amber, her "We Got a Love Thang" and "Keep On Walkin' " were also #1 Dance Chart hits!! edit-Jeff Beck, consistently ranked in the Top 5 of all-time guitarists passed away 1/10/23. He’s known for jazz fusion, hard rock, blues rock and a blend of guitar-rock and electronica. Check out Jeff’s “El Becko’ or “Star Cycle”. He was also in The Yardbirds, you reacted to them Aug 17, 2022.

[@teethang1]

"Keep on Walkin' " is probably my favorite by her, but "We Got a Love Thang" got you running to the dancefloor!

[@VideosSmokin]

Yes I suggest "Keep On Walking" for next reaction.

[@sonyamims5600]

Please, Please, Please you MUST do Keep On Walking! It's a pure banger/vibe!

[@Shrykespeare]

That's some great 90s Dance/R&B! This was Cece's first big hit, and, most would say, her biggest. She did have several other major R&B hits, though, including "Keep On Walkin'", "Inside That I Cried", "I'm In the Mood", and "I'm Not Over You". I also recommend from this time period/genre "Gonna Make You Sweat" by C&C Music Factory, "The Power" by Snap!, "I'm So Into You" by SWV, "Now That We Found Love" by Heavy D & The Boyz, "Don't Walk Away" by Jade, and "Baby" by Brandy. Something I didn't know - CeCe went to Trevor Browne High School in Phoenix, Arizona, only 4 miles from my house! She was also Miss Black Arizona of 1989!! One final fact that will blow your mind - this was released as a single the SAME MONTH as Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit".

[@canonfodder2068]

YES!! All that and Heavy D and the Boyz "We Got Our Own Thang" too! And Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock "It Takes Two"

[@Shrykespeare]

"Finally" was her debut and biggest single. On the Billboard Hot 100, "Finally" reached #5 and earned gold sales certification. "Keep On Walkin'" peaked at #15. Perhaps it was more popular on Billboard's R&B chart?

[@vh1984ful]

This was one of the last dance tunes to keep the 80's dance flame going.

[@willfromyadkinville]

finally hitting the club dance music scene! 90s were very very very good! the 80s were incredible!

[@DC_Prox]

The 90s was sort of a peak in music, and by that I mean that the mainstreaming of both rapping and sampling was the last truly revolutionary innovation in popular music. In other words, every song made since then, even if it's indictive of the era in which it was made, also sounds like it could possibly have been made in 1998. This isn't a good thing or a bad thing, it's just an observation, and I think the first time I truly noticed this was when I heard "Rather Be" by Clean Bandit on the radio, shortly after hearing "Finally" on a different station, and I realized that if I could go back in time to when I DJ'd teen dances, I could slip "Rather Be" into a setlist and it would sound totally normal. Edit: I want to be clear, I know that there's always innovation in music, I'm not saying that the EDM of the 90s is the same as today's, or that nobody's doing anything new, but what I'm saying is that the only things that are objectively changing are 1) the shifting of genres and subgenres, and 2) mastering software getting better and easier to use. Up until the 90s, think of how world-changing the innovations were. Recorded music. Electric instruments. Guitar effects pedals. Synthesizers. Rapping. Turntablism and sampling. The musical world before and after each of those innovations is massive.

Welcome to the wonderful world of "House Music!!' This was one of the BIGGEST hits from the early era of 90's House. This was such a MASSIVE Club BANGER!!! You guys don't even KNOW!! The House music genre was just getting recognition & mass exposure largely due to this song. To be in a club dancing to this & other House Music classics w/my friends was some of the BEST times of my life!! For other essential 90's House classic tracks be sure to check out: "Ride on Time" & "Everybody, Everybody"~ Black box "Moving On Up ~ M People "Gypsy Woman" & "100% Pure Love" ~ Crystal Waters "Good Life" ~ Inner City "Rhythm is a Dancer" & "The Power" ~ SNAP! "Missing" ~ Everything but the Girl "The Whistle Song" ~ Frankie Knuckles BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY OF ALL PLEASE CHECK OUT: "SHOW ME LOVE!" ~ ROBIN S. *1993* No other song exemplifies the early House Music genre & scene MORE than that classic track!! You can't count how many times it's been sampled & used as a interpolation of a "new" song. **BE ADVISED** there is another song w/the SAME title & sung by a Swedish singer named RobYn her version came out in 1995. Please make sure you listen to the original.

Damn, this brings back such good memories. Released in 1991, and I was an early to mid-90s club girl. The remix of this song is fire! Your next CeCe song should be Keep on Walkin'. And We Got A Love Thang is pretty slammin' too.
