Bernadette Cooper was the female version of Morris Day lol. Klymaxx was, is and will always be one of my favorite girl groups of any decade. A great time to be growing up 🎶
@ranlive1 It's a music video. All artists "pretend" to play and sing, as the track plays on set. Can't take nothing from them. They are the real deal!
I'm 61 going on 62 this year of 2023 n still rocking to my 80s music. Night clubbing back in the day n loving it n having fun. Especially after hours. Thank you n continue playing our 80s music for everyone who loves it, young n old.
I’m 46 and still rocking the 80s 70s and90s . There will never be music like this anymore I grew up on all the best music and artists. Today these kids don’t know what real instruments, and real artists, with real talent, and real voices, sound like, yet alone what real music really is. These days were the best years ever. I miss them so so much. That’s why i need the old music.
This was during a time when you dressed to the "tee" and went to the club to just dance and have fun. There were great bands, talented singers and their music was kicking. Gone are those days but thank goodness for TH-cam.
Right! I missed those days when you'd actually meet new ppl out in the world, no computers, online dating is just frustration, awful, catfishing wasn't even a term. I miss meeting people the real way. Now we got computers which began separating us from reality then covid finshed the job. Now what do we do? I say somehow Covid was caused by isolation , computers all somehow lowered our immune systems for real life interactions
At the club and when this song and Meeting in the Ladies Room came on, all the girls hit the floor! 55 years old now and these songs still make you want to dance.
80’s music is the best! I’m 49 and still know the words. I grew up skating rink that played this music. I miss those days so bad. Those were the best years of my life.
I remember when this song came out back in the 80s this is when music was outstanding I am 59 years young almost 60 years young and I am still listing to this song today in 2024
I absolutely love this song. So underrated during its time. So blessed to be a part of the 80's era. Most of the music of today is just plain garbage compared to this.
@@DT-we2ye Well, she pressed the hell outta those buttons. Just say you hate successful, awesome women who've done things you'll never do and get it over with. Bye, ashy.
Holy Wow! I can't believe after all these years I finally found it! My mom listened to just about every music genre when I was growing up. She loved/loves this this band! My dad on the other hand was more into classic rock and country music. But I remember, I couldn't have been more than 4 in 86', my mom was playing this this album while cooking dinner. My dad (while the album was playing) asked my mom to play that "get it girl song" (She was actually saying Kitty girl) 😂. He loved to do the woof part 🤣 both me and my older brother started to mimic him and "woof" too! Great memories!
Big facts. Even today. The older I get the more I see princes handprint on almost every band worth their salt. It's crazy how much influence he had on everybody from The Minneapolis sound to Janelle, to Her to Bruno. Just awesome.
She didn't take any mess. When Cheryl did what she did (too long a story), Bernadette was NOT having it. You can find it if you search for the Bands Reunited clip, floating around on TH-cam. Bad old audio footage, but the message is clear. Bernadette wanted nothing to do with any reunion that involved Cheryl.
Bernadette Cooper went out and found all these talent and the rest is History, of course she was the restless one drumming and all .❤❤❤❤❤❤. I miss you .😘
As a kid, I would sing, "The men have paws when I walk into the room." In my 20s: "The menopause when I walk into the room." I have jacked up so many songs as a kid. Thanks for getting me straight, TH-cam.
Gosh I miss the way women dressed in the 80's, they still managed to look sexy while sophisticated at the same time, I especially love the leather pants the singer is wearing (I love women in leather pants).
Those were the best days . So sorry for what's happening to this world 🌎 Gotta make something interesting happen if you're expecting a great time 🎉🎈🤸♂️🎊🥁🎸🕺💃
when bad ass jam would come on when I was about 9 yrs of age I used to hate when it was about to go off. How I miss "Friday Night Videos"!!!! wasn't nuthin like it in the early 80's. Times were FUN back then!
Love ❤️ these woman. I was lucky enough to be an extra in this video, lol my two seconds of fame where I was at the bar and the bartender slides the drink 🍹 to my hand. I remember that day so while we were there all day long at the lingerie club In LA filming this video.it was an amazing and fun time
Pure talent, sexiness and brains! You can still have the package without showing you azz - young girls today -plz take notes! I Still love you Klymaxx!
Plain Dealing Woman don't have to show your tale much like this new generation of females thinking show everything today. The fact that you are a woman is power it self.
I know the men did because they were fine as wine! Also, they appear so confident and energetic when they perform. I just love to see them step with assurance. They certainly weren't bashful or boring.
"I try to walk in, shy and unnoticed, the men turned away from their burgers and sodas, The focus was on me, I guess admiring good taste, I tried to play it off, but assurance was all over my face!" Thanks Lashona, for bring that line to my attention:-).
it doesn't have the AUTHENTIC sex appeal of the music back in the day. just a bunch of singers singing about sex and being raunchy... in a manufactured way.
I know I was lookin' good, I had my Kenneth Cole shoes on My Gianni Versace blue leather suit My nails were done and my hair was fierce And I was riding in a Cooper's limousine, don't you want to ride? I was at home feelin' sleazy So I went down to the speak easy As soon as my feet hit the door I had all attention from the dance floor Don't you know the men all pause? When I walked into the room the men all pause The men all pause when I walked into the room The men all pause and the brides held their grooms And they all sang the same old tune Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa check me out Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Starin' faces startin' to get tired I wanted to get out and go for a ride Maybe this boredom created my hunger So I said, "Pull over at the local fat burger."
If you are listening to this in 2024, you are a good music lover.
Amen!
Yes I am baby 😂❤❤❤❤❤
Yes I am
Real music, I still love this song.
Yes, this is my jam
These ladies were singing about Kenneth Cole shoes and Gianni Versace blue leather suit way back in 1984. Now THAT is fierce!!!!!
Bernadette Cooper was the female version of Morris Day lol. Klymaxx was, is and will always be one of my favorite girl groups of any decade. A great time to be growing up 🎶
andrea Hailey...you are absolutely right....she was the female Morris Day, or was he the male Bernadette Cooper 🤔
I just told my Goddaughter the exact same thing 💯
My spirit animal
Amen! Exactly what I thought by the time she asked for a mirror!
You are so right! Love it.
Still jamming 2024
One of the baddest, female groups playing all the instruments🔥
Pretending to play, at least here.

I just turned 60, and I'm still spinning this on my 1200s.
48 here, definitely on my Playlist at 50th birthday party
I swear this song plays everytime I enter into a room. Others can't hear it but I swear it's playing!
Believe it
Yeah!
Humble pie for dessert anyone?
Yes!!! 😂 😂
@@Farr50 no thanks!!!! 😂
Klymaxx and The Mary Jane Girls were runnin' things back in the mid 80s.

KLYMAXX DOMINATED BEING THE FIRST ALL FEMALE GROUP WITH THE WHOLE ALBUM BEING A HIT!!!!
This was during a time when you dressed to the "tee" and went to the club to just dance and have fun. There were great bands, talented singers and their music was kicking. Gone are those days but thank goodness for TH-cam.
So very true this music 🎶 AWESOME real MUSIC

Klymaxx are legends. Don’t get enough credit for their contributions to music. These women were BAD!!!!
👍🏼
❤
Oh!!!!!!! I am SOOO happy that i lived thru the 80's/90's!! When the World was a place to experience.
Bernadette Cooper was the Morris Day of Klymaxx. ;)
Nique Ren but unlike Morris, Bernadette is humble😆😆😆
LOL True!
I was thinking the same thing!
Nique Ren I repeated this. I didn't even read what you wrote but yes! All that swag.
Jam & Lewis used to call her Berna-day.
Still can't stand this track 30+ years later.
This was the song back in the day, but now that I am of a particular age, all I can hear is Menopause!! 😢😅🤣
Awesome play on words!😊
"I just look to good for these people". Just one of best the Boss Lady Lines in music history. Direct and to the point ☝️☝️
30 years later and I still like it.
hanti the way that ilova you
@@luciawalker1454 I
The girls was BAD
SHI::-) I LOVE IT!!!
Me too I loved this song even when I had to find out what a men o pause was? 😅 over 30 years later and still loving this jam
At the club and when this song and Meeting in the Ladies Room came on, all the girls hit the floor! 55 years old now and these songs still make you want to dance.
Exactly!
And when we needed to gossip of course one of us would say, "meetin in the Ladies room".
Whatttttt u all had great fun.
80’s music is the best! I’m 49 and still know the words. I grew up skating rink that played this music. I miss those days so bad. Those were the best years of my life.
Yes it does
Amazing happiness dancing in the club with my girls all glammed up looking for cute men!! Sexy powerful female vibe!! 💋❤️❤️🔥🔥❤️❤️💋
I'm 64 and these songs are still kicking it.
I WONDER CAN YOU YOUNG PEOPLE OUT THERE GROOVE TO THIS JAM HARDER THAN I STILL CAN AT AGE 58 NOW.

Klymaxx such a bad A group who has not gotten the recognition they deserve but at 71 still listening and loving these women ❤ ❤❤❤🎉
The best Prince project that wasn't a Prince project.
I felt prince Vibes. The girl with the short punk just acted so much like prince
This is a classic. Bernadette Cooper handled those percussions like no other.
You realize this song uses a drum machine, not a drum set. She pressed computer buttons. There are no real drums on this song.
@@feleciachance8987Sh
@@DT-we2ye Well, she pressed the hell outta those buttons.
Just say you hate successful, awesome women who've done things you'll never do and get it over with.
Bye, ashy.
@@DT-we2yeyes. Still 🔥🔥🔥
@@DT-we2ye Well she probably programmed the drums but she also could play those Simmons pads live like she is doing in the video.
Words cannot describe the weirdness of the 80s. You had to be there.
But it was awesome!
LOL! And it was FUN as hell too!!!
Yeah but it was fun. These kids today don't have the cool music, movies or T.V. shows we grew up to.
Facts 🔥🎯🙅🏾♀️🎯 still stuck there lol
Yup.....
“I was at home feeling sleazy so I went down to the speakeasy...” 👏👏👏
The Speakeasy was a actual club in L.A(Crenshaw District)
My favorite lyric ever

Times when we all danced our butts off😂!!
Prince, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis influenced almost everything put out in the 80's
Big facts. Even today. The older I get the more I see princes handprint on almost every band worth their salt. It's crazy how much influence he had on everybody from The Minneapolis sound to Janelle, to Her to Bruno. Just awesome.
I'm seeing elements and influences of MJ here, too.
I believe this song was done by the Calloway brothers of midnight star
Damn right!!!!! Don’t forget about Michael Jackson as well

Go away lol

I was a club DJ in the 80s, and whenever i played Klymaxx, the ladies took over the dance floor. As a man and DJ, i enjoyed every moment of it. ❤
[SCREAMING] BERNADETTE!!!!😆👏🏾😆👏🏾😆👏🏾 Where you at In 2022 sis?! We looking for you!! 💃🏾📞🎤🥁
If anyone in Klymaxx is reading this!!
Get back together with ALL original members!!
Now!! 🎤🎶❤️💃
Good Suggestion 😊
The most underrated band of the eighties! All girls rocked the decade!
Omg why is this a oldie this was my time
As a kid, I would sing,
"The men have paws when I walk into the room."
In my 20s:
"The menopause when I walk into the room."
I have jacked up so many songs as a kid. Thanks for getting me straight, TH-cam.
Cyanoxic Rose it was deliberately intended to be a play on the word “menopause.” That was the point.
We used to say "menopause", too. But on purpose. Lol
LOL! You're comment cracked me up! God bless! Peace, Lynne
Lol!
LOL! It's "The men all pause!" As in "stop" when she walks in the room.
The 80s will always be the best music in the land.
always!
Love the music 🎶 from the 80's
Yes indeed! Love the 80’s.
Exactly!
Yep
One of My sister's favorite songs, may she RIP
This was a kick ass group !!!!
They definitely need an unsung episode. I was young when they came out but now that Im older, I see they are a legendary girl group.
These ladies were ahead of there times I love the confidence.Still dope 💯💯💯🔥
Very much ahead
These are some badass chicks! I love that they played their own instruments. I loved them when I was 8 years old, and I still love them!
Me too love them!!
Bernadette is sick. Loved her.

“I had my Kenneth Cole shoes on and my Gianni Versace blue leather suit” YESSSSSSSS
I So had a MASSIVE ❤crush on err single member of Klymaxx as a mannish 8th grader!!❤❤
THEY DESERVE THEIR FLOWERS! 🌹🌹🌹🌹
These ladies rock.
These girls were the bomb!
absolutely
This is in a level of coolness many musical groups or people never knew existed.
Yes they do when I walk through😉
When I was in college and they used to play this in the gay bars...the whole place went crazy...especially when she says "RADAR" lol
Greg Hunt I bet thoses were good times, Klymaxx givin' y'all LIFE...
I wish i was old enough to go out back then. Lol
6th grade memories
It was the precursor to 'gaydar'
It's amazing to note that they had a relation to the gays. "RADAR!".
Just saw them kick off the Summer Jam in Phoenix, with two original members. Awesome set!!!! ❤
They remind me of a female version of Morris Day and The Time 🔥🔥🔥 they don't make music like this anymore
These ladies tooo cool. .incredible swag

This song reminds me so much of the song "Freakazoid."😊
A little
Yeah! Get it Poppin 😆😝😜🎶🎵
music today doesn't have the same level of sex appeal that music had back in the day
it doesn't have the AUTHENTIC sex appeal of the music back in the day. just a bunch of singers singing about sex and being raunchy... in a manufactured way.

42 yrs old & still my fav
This was my JAM!!! ❤❤❤
HAHHAAAAAAAHA!!!! I LOVE 80'S!!!!!! I LOVE FUNK!!!!!!! I LOVE KLYMAXX!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!!!!!

We spent almost as much time getting ready than at the club!!
back in the club days Packed dance floor! ahhh the Good times ..will rock my speakers.....
My hair WAS fierce back in the day, we all had fierce hair, lol! So funny to watch this now!
All that jewelry & other accessories, too. I still have so many pairs of my huge 80s earrings - especially the ones that didn't dangle.
Jean O'Boyle Wow, amazing you still have them!
Fierce!! Lol...haven't heard that word in a while....mine was too...biggest in town.
I was fierce in a sweet way. :D
IT IS.... THATS WHY I'M LAUGHING..LOL. WOW OLD TIMES IS GOOD TIMES.
I love the 80’s ❤❤❤❤😂👏🏽
I know I was lookin' good, I had my Kenneth Cole shoes on
My Gianni Versace blue leather suit
My nails were done and my hair was fierce
And I was riding in a Cooper's limousine, don't you want to ride?
I was at home feelin' sleazy
So I went down to the speak easy
As soon as my feet hit the door
I had all attention from the dance floor
Don't you know the men all pause?
When I walked into the room the men all pause
The men all pause when I walked into the room
The men all pause and the brides held their grooms
And they all sang the same old tune
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa check me out
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Starin' faces startin' to get tired
I wanted to get out and go for a ride
Maybe this boredom created my hunger
So I said, "Pull over at the local fat burger."
These Ladies are true Bosses
Giving attitude all,over the room..🎶
The title of this song the men all pause already make you be in love with this song
Lynelle Murray ok I still can party to this at 24 I'm a 90s bby
