You do know that the one with the belting vocals is Martha Wash? Vocally, Rebbie is equal to Janet. | |

really? Damm...martha wash is like the ultimate ghost singer ever! Sure is! "Everybody Dance Now" "Strike It Up" "Everybody" She played a pivotal and vocal role in the '90s biggest songs and yet she didn't get initial credit for. But I knew that none of the girls who lipped her sound anything like her anyways. | |

I bought the album around 1994, and after reading that in the liner notes I laughed whenever I watched the video. She's even acting like she's singing Martha's part. | |

I thought that was so fake on Maureen's part. Note my disappointment when I found out that Martha was belting instead of Rebbie, well I should've known because Rebbie's last song "Yours Faithfully" didn't show me that she had any "vocal prowess" just because she lip-synched that part in the "Centipede" video. | |

She shoulda stuck to shooting lightning bolts outta her fingertips. | |

I loved the song so much I still play it on my phone. I never knew that. Wow, it's deja vu all over again. Milli Vanilli, Blackbox. Next I'll hear Prince is an alien from the planet Xanex or something. | |

Actually Rebbie CAN sing. LaToya's the one with the paper thin voice and Janet with that damn whisper
And Rebbie's aged pretty darn well: and her daughters look damn good!(The ones on each side): "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

How can you tell when she talks through the whole thing? | |

Exactly, like I said, she's vocally equal to Janet. The only difference is Janet has had catchy songs. "Centipede" was the ONLY thing in Rebbie's case that stuck for her. Basically Martha Wash and Michael OWNED that track. MJ: "Centipeeeeede" | |
