I´m a big Midnight Star fan. My favorite album is Planetary Invasion, my favorite songs on that album are Scientific Love and Curious, the rest is also great.

I saw them in concert last summer.They still put on a fantastic show!

I've got the midas touch
Everything I touch turns to gold
(Oh sugar)
I've got the midas touch
Baby let me touch your body and your soul

Great group. My favorite albums are "No Parking On The Dance Floor" (every track on that album is good) and "Planetary Invasion".

At first I thought the title said 'tribute band' for some reason.

Love this song!!!!!


Excuse me, madam
You're standing still in a no parking zone
You don't get a move on that body
I'll be forced to give you a ticket
So get with it

There's a party tonight, you're in a red light zone
If you don't want a ticket you better move on
If you break the law you gotta pay your dues
Ain't much better if you play it by the rules

‘Cause it's so easy, it's so right
It's so easy to rock it with your body, baby
It's so easy, it's so right
It's so easy if you drive it all night

No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor
No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor

Let me hear you blow your horn
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep} Shake it, baby
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep}
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep} Rock it, baby
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep}

Movin' violations are easy to fix
Just tell the deejay to fix it in the mix
Shake it up and shake it on down
Let me feel you movin', you gotta get down

‘Cause it's so easy, it's so right
It's so easy to rock it with your body, baby
It's so easy, it's so right
It's so easy if you drive it all night

No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor (I wanna say it again)
No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor {Ah...}

{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep} Shake it, baby
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep}
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep} Rock it, baby
{Beep-beep, beep-beep, beep-beep}

Rock it
Work it
Shake it
Don't drive it
Baby, baby, baby

Don't park your booty, don't park your can
It's time to party, it's time to jam
Don't park your booty, don't park your can
It's time to party, it's time to jam

Don't park your booty, don't park your can
It's time to party, it's time to jam
Don't park your booty, don't park your can
It's time to party, it's time to jam

No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor (No, no)
No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor (Ah...)

No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor
No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor

No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor
No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor

No parking, baby
No parking on the dance floor
No parking, baby

One of my all-time favorites is by Midnight Star---Slow Jam!!

Slow Jam

written by Babyface, Belinda Lipscomb, Boaz Watson, Sidney Johnson (1983)
originally performed by Midnight Star


I was all alone
I was feeling rather low
I needed someone to lift my spirits up
So I dropped it on a dance
Just to take a glance
And there this lovely thing was
She was more than enough

I asked her for her hand
Said would you like to dance
So pleased that I had asked
She quickly took my hand
And we danced and fell in love
On a slow jam

Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam
For my baby and for me
Play another slow jam
This time make it sweet
On a slow jam

Seems what you say is true
I feel the same way too
I waited all night long
Just to dance with you
And when you touched my hand
I knew you were the man
To turn my world around
And make my dreams come true

The magic in your eyes
Made me realize
That everything I feel
Has got to be real
And we danced and fell in love
On a slow jam

HOOK 4 times

I love freakazoid, the beat is downright funky! I think janet's control was inspired by it

Hey, now that you mention it...you´re right ! Also, there´s a song on the control album that contains parts of the Possessed melody, exactly the same melody that can be heard in Purple Rain where Apollonia and Morris sit at a table in First Ave.

We useta always put Get Dressed on repeat play when we were getting ready to go out.

I love all the cuts everyone has mentioned but Headlines is the one I'm thinkin' about right now.

Midnight Star was da bomb. So they are still around? I think someone said they saw 'em last summer.

Yes,they're still around I saw them twice in recent years.The first time was in 2006,and I saw them again last year (2007).Both times,they were the highlight of the concert I went to.They still KICKASS onstage! That hasn't changed.One thing that has changed are their hairdos.They no longer sport those big jeri curls,lol.

They have their own website www.MidnightStarband.com and they'll be doing some shows this year.In fact,they're performing this weekend in Dallas.
