And for all of you much younger orgers that weren't born earlier enough to witness Freestyle at the height of that genre's popularity on FM radio during the late 1980's & early 1990's, here are a few of Sa-Fire's classics:
Let Me Be The One I love THIS track! Boy I've Been Told Gonna Make It Thinking Of You EDIT: I was also trying to find the video for Don't Break My Heart. But it looks like the YT police were force to take it down again. [Edited 2/27/10 23:29pm] | |

Sa-Fire is great, and she is back on the touring circuit, as are Expose,CoverGirls and Lisa Lisa. A great time of music that never gets its respect "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

I've still haven't found the video for Don't Break My Heart anywhere. But I've did find this classic: Make Up My Mind Its funny but i have uncovered alot of "underground" video footage of the Cover girls doing videos from that first album, people tend to forget that was the FIRST indie album to chart 5 singles.

More up my street as by 1990, freestyle crossed over into pop, which was great for me. I love "made up my mind" (with George Lamond on adlibs at the end) and I still like "I never heard" aswell. Cool to see her interviewed about it. Either Mj or Paul Anka did not allow her to release the lyrics in the album booklet though. Why I don't know? | |
