Yeah I think you should, especially if its free!

Havent seen anything of her for a couple of years since she was doing shows in vegas. I dont know WHAT she'll sing!!! Do you think Prince songs are too much to hope for?

yeah i think it was her biggest (only?!) hit but is it not a bit too much for some? I was under the impression her fans these days are generally anti-prince types...and a bit more sensitive...?

she had a huge hit in 89 "lover in me"

remember that song it was #2 in us


'For Your Eyes Only'.

The single reaches UK#8 and US#4.

sugar walls #9 in us

'9 To 5'#3uk To avoid confusion with Dolly Parton's song of the same name it is re-named 'Morning Train (9 To 5)'. It reaches US#1 and sells over 1 million copies

modern gal #8 uk


'We've Got Tonight' - a duet with Kenny Rogers reaches UK#28 and US#6.

thanks all for pointing out that easton was far from a one hit wonder...

despite her horrid wobble-head dancing....

anyone else remember julie brown (the white one) always making fun of her for that dance?

That would be "Morning Train (9 To 5)",her 1981 debut single.It did pretty well.There were several other big hits...."Long Distance Love Affair" in 1983...."Strut" in 1984.
