I mean, she's awesome ... but the cheesy 80's and backing music (which is played too fast) overall makes me want to rip my hair out. And don't even get me started on the lame 'funk break' ... I love a good funk break, but not on this song.

I like the arrangement, Louis Johnson rocks it with the bass as usual.

I could probably sum it up best when I say ... I like a lot of 80's artists. A LOT of them. But 60's and 70's artists ... thrust into making albums that sounded 'modern' in the 80's ... failed, quite a lot of the time.
