Jody Watley - Some Kind Of Lover

cool (Though I liked the original album version more, the dance remix/video version was good as well.)

Jody was one of those acts where I liked the remixes better than the album versions. I don't recall what the album version of this sounds like because I hardly heard it. lol The radio played the remix.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I agree (for most of her songs), except this one.

Here is the original version. It sounds more "natural". Much better baseline during the bridge.

As a kid, I first thought it was Prince playing the drums...

Then, if I remember correctly, wasn't it said it was actually Andre Cymone????

Hot song, BTW. Come back Jody... we miss you!

I have the album, but I bought it at a flea market after it was old and I had already bought the maxi singles. I mostly got it because of the George Michael duet, which I didn't have, and it was only a dollar.

When i first heard this one(still) i would have bet my life that Prince was involved. Andre channeled prince perfectly(production). He shoulda been a contender.

Still a Thrill
