Sorry, that mess (pun intentional) will never be anything of the day. OK, maybe picture sleeve of the day: looks great on the 45.

This is all 80s. I remember when it came out I thought it was so bad that it became good. The video is classic cheesy 80s - the golden age of music video and still the best era in my opinion. Vanity was still the hottest female in the business - hands down - and she had enough Prince sheen on her to do no wrong. Remember she got off a couple of solo albums with Motown which were not complete junk. You can tell me you didn't like Mechanical Emotion or Under The Influence

she looks lovely in that vid. Even though she's flat as a board she still has a nice body. She's got the tiny waist and the big bum and is otherwise proportionate. the dresses look fab on her. she later got her boob job but it didn't add to her beauty at all. that dude in the vid is ugly but i think that was her boyfriend at the time or at least that's what she once said. shrug

"Mechanical Emotion" is the best song on her 'Wild Animal' album.It boasts a hot Minneapolis groove and having Morris Day on the chorus was a smart move.

She was very flat-chested during the Vanity 6 and 'Wild Animal' days.She got her boobs enlarged in 1985,just in time for that steamy Playboy pictorial wink

Mechanical Emotion would be a perfect jam to remake if the right guy and girl did it. Maybe Beyonce and Usher round 2? Ciara and T-Pain?
