80s R&B Jam of the Day: "I Want Your Body" by Madame X (1987) Producer Bernadette Cooper is all over this track,and she's hilarious at times...
"Uncontrollable desire...passion Chills running up and down my spine...ooh...I'm losing my mind Wild....very very very erotic baby Temporary...Lawd!" The song sounds like something Vanity 6 would have recorded if they had lasted throughout the remainder of the decade.There is a definite "Prince feel" to this song.It's a sexy song with alot of attitude and catchy singalong hooks... "Say lust...everybody say lust Say lust....America say lust It's a triple-double drag baby,ooh,without lust" These girls know exactly what they want and they're not afraid to demand it either... "Work me all night long baby,work me all night long baby,work me all night long baby" After some fake moaning and getting all worked up,Bernadette warns her would-be-lover that "This better be good" who remembers this jam from 1987? Second single from their debut album. | |

It got a little airplay out here on the West Coast,but I was surprised that it didn't become a bigger hit.I like it even more than the first single ("Just That Type Of Girl"). | |

Oh, I used to love that puppet! She could talk plenty shit too. She's definately on the verge of being "X" also. I remember watching her on "Solid Gold" and my grandmother thought she was an immitation of Dionne Warwick. [Edited 1/7/05 14:21pm] Andy is a four letter word. | |

"L-U-S-T....you know what I'm talking about Do it to my mind!" One of the best things about this song is Bernadette's crazy little ad libs. | |
