Paula Abdul's Promise Of A New Day

I love this track, It has a MPLS sound vibe.. no P's involvment at all? ( songwriting, production...)

There MIGHT be some P involvement (some of his involvment apparently goes uncredited (i.e Act of contrition and Like a Prayer for Madonna))but it's not unlikely that the people who are credited (can't remember there names, P Smith ans some Jeffrey...??)) actually wrote the somg. I'm basing this on their composing for The Family Stand, where they did a lot of excellent work as well.

CORRECT.


and the constant reiteration of this notion of Prince ghost-writing/producing the album stems from the Family Stand being heavily influenced by the same artists/sounds that influenced Prince (and even Prince himself).



btw, POAND used to be my favorite song woot! still love it and the album.

Promise of A New Day is still my fav Paula Abdul song. It's
a bit OTT but it's got something very cool about it too.

I was a huge Paula Abdul fan back in the day and this was one of my favorite songs. I just thought it was soo beautiful. Of course I was like 9 or 10 at the time.

I always thought that "Spellbound" album was leaps and bounds better than "Forever Your Girl".
