Jeremy Jordan ~ Wanna Girl I used to see this video all the time. I think this was his 2nd single after The Right Kind Of Love. 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 | |

Yes, this is 20 years old! I used to love the song, but the memory is not a happy one as it came out at a Not Happy time of my life. | |

whatever happened to him? "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

Jordan moved over to acting; the last thing I saw him in was "Never Been Kissed", Drew Barrymore film. But he's done other things since, I'm sure. I'm really surprised the music thing didn't jump off, because what little I heard I liked. Bought the re-mix CD of "The Right Kinda of Love" for a dollar at Virgins Record store years ago. I wouldn't mind having the CD to this song came from. I"m curious to know what it sounds like.
Good post Mickey, as always.

I have his album. Some of the songs were produced by Robbie Nevil & Al B. Sure!/Kyle West. It's like early 90's new jack pop.

Thanks Micky! Was shocked to find it over at iTunes.
There's no e in your user name, fixed. ============================ [Edited 1/6/13 13:07pm] | |

You're welcome. The Right Kind Of Love was originally on the 90210 soundtrack. It's pretty good too. It has other songs by Shanice Wilson, a Chaka Khan/Michael McDonald duet, Cathy Dennis, Jody Watley, Color Me Badd, Paula Abdul, and others.

ms trina, you think he can sang? "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

Jordan's alright. That's a lukewarm response isn't?
He's that type of singer, given the right material, he can carry a song. Having just finished listening to his one and only album, material wise it's a hit and miss. I definitely hear Al. B Sure's production calling card, I've never been impressed with anything Sure has done. A couple of cuts that are keepers, it would've helped if they changed up the production a bit, some of the songs sound alike. Still, I'm surprised Jordan didn't record a sophomore album.

I seem to remember reading maybe on another board or somewhere else that a follow up was not recorded due to "personal" issues. Still, it's odd that he seemingly never blew up "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

Hmm.. Jordans from Hammond IN., city that between Gary and Chicago. You would've thought with 90210 connection, it would've given his music a career a boost. I'll have to checkout the soundtrack of the show too. | |

Maybe he was lumped with Joey Lawrence who had a song out about the same time. His image seems targeted to the Tiger Beat crowd. There was also the popularity of Color Me Badd & Boyz II Men.

Apparently, he's been doing Broadway also. I saw him on last year's Tony Awards. He was nominated for his performance in Newsies.

That's a totally different Jeremy Jordan. It's a popular name. There's a pornstar with the name too. | |

Here's one of a few videos Jeremy [or his people] posted to Youtube last year.
Here's Jeremy hosting some sketch comedy show back in 2010.

I never knew what happened to Jeremy, nor thought about it. He just made a record I bought, I've never even read a magazine article about him.

I have a lot of records by acts I don't know one thing about. Some of them I don't know what they look like either.
