Nearly fell over when my grocery store's playlist changed to a little 70's/lots of 80's/bunch of 90's and this came on. I was singing along cleaning a chicken oven weirding out those not from Canada and those born mid 90's or later.
I like that. Makes them more special. Spotify is evil. It's more star-like and even punk rock to refuse to be a slave to algorithms and corporate fascists. This is magic!
I met Louise Reny while writing for a music magazine in 1988-89. She's an Angel herself! A VERY lovely girl who is just as sweet as she sounds in THIS song!!
My mother grew up in the 80s and every time she hears this song she dances. It’s easily one of my favourite songs too. Ever since I was a boy this song has put me in a good mood. It just sounds so happy and colourful. This song to me is what I think of when I think of the 80s
Leslie Howe, who was the brains behind One to One, is very underrated as a Canadian producer and songwriter. This is by far the best song he’s written but there are many others including those on the first 2 Alanis Morisette albums.
I always wished to get an autographed pic of them and they are one of my all time favorite bands. Their music is always great to listen to. Louise has a unique and lovely voice and she is angelic. Thank God for the 80's and growing up in them. Nowadays sucks!!
I was in Canadian tire a couple years ago and heard this for the first time in years too and was like holy fuck talk about a flashback song. Took me a while to find after but it was worth finding! Great song! Never gets boring! And what a voice she has!
My dad grew up in the 1980s and uses the great music from back then to inspire songs he writes for me. He really liked the Canadian and UK bands. I love this song.
This is my absolute favorite 80s song of all time!! Hands down-& I don't know why. I've just loved it from the moment I heard it..& for some reason, the day my mother died..6 yrs. ago..(this played)that evening..My BFF looked at each other in shock!! But now, she's gone too. Sigh, ❤U Girl!!
Absolutely love this fantastic song! Amazing Melody and killer vocal! One of the best pop songs ever written and it deserved to be a bigger hit than it was
I walked the floor singing this to my daughter when she wouldn’t settle at night. Now she has two angels ( most of the time 😃) of her own. Getting old is neat sometimes.
My family was very good friends with them both. Husband and wife. Her husband was her producer.... This is how Alanis became famous....We introduced Alanis to them one day at church & bam....Alanis got her first big hit CD. Pretty neat reading the stories on here so I thought I'd share mine. :) I miss Louise like crazy. Always listen to her music still & wish I could find her.
@@michaelwagner1279 unfortunately I have no idea. I’ve left her a few messages with no luck. :( I miss her! She had such a beautiful spirit and just an all around amazing woman!
I went there too! It was the only place in the North End people would bother to go to! A good change of pace from going to Goose Loonies and Barry T's all the time.
OMG! Cathy, you are sooo dating yourself LOL. But hey, I did the same thing in the 80's & 90's. Kids today wouldn't know old school cool stuff like that with their ipods & music on their cellphones :P
I always loved this song but never new who it was that sang it. The chorus is fantastic, always makes me feel happy to be alive. Sounds a little like Roxette to me. Thanks for posting this tune, love it. And their Canadian.
Played this song for friends, a few of which had never heard it before. All swore '"this is the best Madonna song I've ever heard!! Is it new??" To which I reply "not Madonna, rather a Canadian group called One to One from Ottawa which started recording several years BEFORE Madonna. Yet another highly underrated Canadian group."
How did this video pop up? It wasn't a big hit in the states but somehow I discovered this obscure song in the 80s when I was a teen growing up in Mississippi and it's always been a favorite. Still have the 45rpm record in the generic sleeve with no photo on it.
Louise is the greatest and this song makes me cry thinking of how great times were back when this came out.I have always been a fan of One To One & when she & Leslie were in Sals Birdland & Artificial Joy Club.I have lots of the promo stuff but was never able to get an autographed photo.I have a couple of the band pics hanging up in my room today!! Music really pales by comparison today and I keep the 80's alive & listen often to bands like One To One,Mr Mister,The Cars,Dan Fogelberg..take care!
One To One rules and both Leslie Howe and Louise Reny are and always will be important to me.Thier music has brought so much happiness.Angel In My Pocket was the perfect song for the perfect time....totally quintessential 1980's music!!!Thanks Louise and Leslie for One To One,Sals Birdland & Artificial Joy Club music!! I will be a fan forever and continue to keep your music alive!!!
I remember hearing this song I was 15 years old one hit wonders I am a follower of the 80s I have nieces to introduce these songs to I hope they like them The new generation today have a whole different playlist . Nothing beats the 80s
Great song and an all time favorite band of mine!!No one sounds like them... the lovely and talented Louise Reny is simply amazing and Leslie Howe can do no wrong!! Thanks for sharing this as it brings back so many wonderful memories of listening to CHML even though I lived hundreds of miles away in NJ!!
Wore out the cassette of this album! Seriously listened to constantly over a period of months. Louise's voice and Leslie Howard's music hooks just melded into pop perfection.
This song is playable over and over. What an incredible voice. I have to say it's in my top 5 EVER. I have to admit I only heard two other songs by this group but they were mediocre at best... This one is pure musical genius.
I wasn't around in the '80s, but I used to hear this a lot on Up 97.7 in Calgary (now renamed as Soft Rock 97.7) back in early 2014 when I was in Grade 9. It's too bad this isn't on Spotify, I wanted to add it to my '80s playlist.
I heard this the other day on Stingray Retro tv channel. I really like it. I had never heard it before, believe it or not. Now, tear to my eye everytime I listen to it and it touches me so deep. The music part between 2:36 & 2:48 is memorable . Nostalgic song for me. Touching one for sure! Everything is beautiful about this song; the lyrics, the music and the clip as well. That lady is very pretty. She is cute in her outfit at 1:08 & 3:24. She had something special for sure. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video!! This song will always be an all-time favorite of mine and you just can't beat the 80's musicwise.Louise Reny is a superb vocalist and have loved her work in One To One,Sal's Birdland and Artificial Joy Club.Anyone know where I might be able to contact Louise or Leslie these days.I owe them a long overdue fan letter,that's for sure!!
John Cole It's because they're a Canadian band. I find iTunes ignores Canadian music from the 60's, 70's and 80's. And you're right that it's a great song.
John Cole Only way I was able to get this song was by ordering the album on CD when it "finally" was made (the group didn't opt to have this released on CD back in the day due to the medium being very new - not an uncommon thing with many groups then). Wasn't until well into the 2000s that "Forward Your Emotions" was made on CD. I ordered it from Amazon. I believe it's out of production now, but if you hunt around, you might be lucky to pick up a used copy.

God, this song has memories... growing up in Canada during the 80s was an amazing time. Dunno why but the cat at the 16 second mark always brings a tear to my eye:-)
A reminder of the great 1980s. Bubble gummy. Romantic prelude. Love it. Wonderful but painful. Uplifting. Glad I grew up then. This can take me back to the Roxy in NYC. Thanks.
Gotta tell ya, Ottawa misses them...if ONLY they'd write more songs. I know, it's probably a time gone by and they won't get together to produce more gems, but that would be amazing. I'm sure Louise still has a great voice. One of the coolest moments for me was when my family had dinner at Derringers (we went there regularly) one night and I spotted a group of familiar faces (Louise, Frank Levin, Serge Cote, etc) at a table. Patrons who also recognized urged Louise to step up to the karaoke mic.
Thanks for posting this. I remember this song back in the 80's on the radio, back around '86 & '87 as the copyright on the video says. A catchy tune, & definitely 80's :-). Brings back real good memories of my childhood, I was 9 yrs old when I first heard this. I don't think I could ever tire of this song....
Great video to my favorite One to One song. Recently heard this song on the radio for the first time in years. Brought back tons of memories, good memories. One to One rule, and this is a great 80's song. On the hunt for the very hard to find Forward Your Emotions.
I will always remember this time in my life as things were changing big time! I was moving to the bright lights big city! On my own going to school and working towards my red seal in Chef school and working part time ,and it wasn't easy but I got everything I wanted! Seems like yesterday? But in reality it was over 30 years ago🤔 Where did the time go, but I look back with much fondness now when I hear this song? It was easily the best times of my life ❤😎👍
Friends and I were wild about this song as a club hit when it was released. So I totally understand all the love for the song, still don't get why U.S. radio failed to push this one. Sounds like "Take On Me"'s female partner song, awesome!
Was just a minor blip for a couple of weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1986, peaking at just No. 92. Really fine and catchy tune. They had another single that also charted on the Billboard Hot 100 in the early or mid 90’s that only made it to No. 95.
Louis Renee from Ottawa, Canada! I used to work with her, when we were all in high school, (some from Canterbury, some from Ridgemont) in her first group called Mainstream. She had an alright voice but had a lot of potential that we could see, so the sound man kept pushing the instruments volume so she had to try harder! Eventually had her singing from the diaphragm, the rest, as they say, was history!! That was around 1973-75 ish!
It's such an injustice that One 2 One never got the same recognition and success as No Doubt did in the 90's, even though she sounds just like Gwen Stefani.
I've always felt the same way. Granted No Doubt is a full band and One To One was just Louise and her boyfriend. But they did progress later on into Artificial Joy Club. But One To One had great production (for the time) and they had quite a bit of airplay in Canada, but for some reason never caught on Stateside. When they first came out Madonna was just a couple years into her stardom beginning, and Louise seemed to have that star power too, it's a shame they never were bigger.
- for it and it fell into obscurity. This has to be one of the 80's true hidden gems. Really pretty vocals along with a very nice arrangement. Too bad, because the group deserved a lot of recognition and the opportunity to do more.
Me to my friend. I was really into prog rock...bands like Genesis, ELP, YES, Strawbs etc etc. When the 80's came along my taste kind of changed in music. I fell in love with New Wave/Post Punk music. I'm a keyboard freek and 80's New Wave had a lot of keyboards in it's music.
Any other Canadians remember watching this on "Video Hits" after school? Gotta love an Ottawa-based synth-pop classic.
Can't find this on Spotify..... It's still one of my favorite tunes
Nearly fell over when my grocery store's playlist changed to a little 70's/lots of 80's/bunch of 90's and this came on. I was singing along cleaning a chicken oven weirding out those not from Canada and those born mid 90's or later.
Video Hits with Samantha Taylor and Good Rockin' Tonite.
I did remember watching this video on CBC's 'Video Hits' back then!
Me!!! 🙋♀️ 🇨🇦
I can't believe I just discovered this gem today. Long live the 80s. Cheers, from Brazil.
Can't understand why this group is not on Spotify. 5 big hits in the 80s
I know!!! Ridiculous!!
I know! It's not on Apple Music either.
I agree!
I like that. Makes them more special. Spotify is evil. It's more star-like and even punk rock to refuse to be a slave to algorithms and corporate fascists. This is magic!
Not on Shazam either, i googled parts of the lyrics and found it!
How many of us Canadian kids are there who grew up in the 1980s, hearing this on the radio or watching this on Video Hits after school?
Me!
That's right. Samantha Taylor followed by Little House on the Prairie. :)
Loved this tune growing up. Reminds me of the summer of 85, which was probably the best summer of my life.
One of the greatest 80s songs that should have been a number one hit worldwide.
2023. Remembering this truly amazing group. They deserved so much more.
Got this album...met them eons ago downtown Otawa in a record store...🤘🏻🤣😂🇨🇦🍁
Takes me right back to 1985 - big song in Canada here back in the day : )
Yes me too, this was my favorite song, so many fond memories of our cabin trips when I hear it 😊
I met Louise Reny while writing for a music magazine in 1988-89. She's an Angel herself!
A VERY lovely girl who is just as sweet as she sounds in THIS song!!
Which 'zine?
This song and the 80s just blows me away , great decade, take me back and forget to pick me up
Me too!! Take me back to the 80’s please!
I’m always perplexed as to why this song wasn’t an enormous international hit?
Had this been an American it would have been.
My mother grew up in the 80s and every time she hears this song she dances. It’s easily one of my favourite songs too. Ever since I was a boy this song has put me in a good mood. It just sounds so happy and colourful. This song to me is what I think of when I think of the 80s
Leslie Howe, who was the brains behind One to One, is very underrated as a Canadian producer and songwriter. This is by far the best song he’s written but there are many others including those on the first 2 Alanis Morisette albums.
She was a few months pregnant when she released this song. She was singing about her little baby. If hat's not sweet, then I don't know what is.
I met this girl in Ottawa years ago and got her autograph , she was so sweet , I told her I love her voice 🤗
How old were you when u got her autograph?
Very cool mate!
I always wished to get an autographed pic of them and they are one of my all time favorite bands. Their music is always great to listen to. Louise has a unique and lovely voice and she is angelic. Thank God for the 80's and growing up in them. Nowadays sucks!!
God...takes me back 1986 when I was 20 and the inspiration was everywhere!
Just heard this again for the first time in 20 years and still love it!!
bombergal1 Lost treasures. :)
I was in Canadian tire a couple years ago and heard this for the first time in years too and was like holy fuck talk about a flashback song. Took me a while to find after but it was worth finding! Great song! Never gets boring! And what a voice she has!
My dad grew up in the 1980s and uses the great music from back then to inspire songs he writes for me. He really liked the Canadian and UK bands. I love this song.
Loved this group when they first hit the scene and still love them in 2024. Best thing about this band, they are from Ottawa.
This is my absolute favorite 80s song of all time!! Hands down-& I don't know why. I've just loved it from the moment I heard it..& for some reason, the day my mother died..6 yrs. ago..(this played)that evening..My BFF looked at each other in shock!! But now, she's gone too. Sigh, ❤U Girl!!
Total classic!!
Yes CBC’s Video Hits and Good Rockin Tonight!!
The 80s were the best
Terry David Mulligan and Stewie
The most magical decade in musical history! Nothing like it!
Absolutely love this fantastic song! Amazing Melody and killer vocal! One of the best pop songs ever written and it deserved to be a bigger hit than it was
I bought this album in 1986 and still have the cassette tape! One of my favorite songs of the 80’s.
You and me!
Leslie Howe. Very talented. And Louise's voice. STUNNING.
Are uou a pet shop boys fan? They mentioned her once.. incredibly high praise indeed and they earned every bit if it!!!!!
@@erictroxell715 I am a PSB fan. ❤
@@rhymeandreasoning so awesome !! Im not surprised. I wish i could see them in concert someday. They came to state college years ago.
I walked the floor singing this to my daughter when she wouldn’t settle at night.
Now she has two angels ( most of the time 😃) of her own.
Getting old is neat sometimes.
Very beautiful tribute sir God has blessed you!!
My family was very good friends with them both. Husband and wife. Her husband was her producer....
This is how Alanis became famous....We introduced Alanis to them one day at church & bam....Alanis got her first big hit CD.
Pretty neat reading the stories on here so I thought I'd share mine. :)
I miss Louise like crazy. Always listen to her music still & wish I could find her.
Do you know if Miss Reny is still performing, I miss her voice...Thank you
@@michaelwagner1279 unfortunately I have no idea. I’ve left her a few messages with no luck. :( I miss her! She had such a beautiful spirit and just an all around amazing woman!
I don't know if this will help you as no tours are currently scheduled.
tourlala.com/tourdates/louise-reny
Leslie Howe preyed on Alanis when she was 14 and he 29. She wrote Hands Clean about her predator. Shameful.
@@its_msk yes very true! Makes me sick how these predators get away with it too!
Reminds me of dancing and partying at the Greenhouse bar in Edmonton..in the late 80s..ahhhhhh the good old days...
I went there too! It was the only place in the North End people would bother to go to! A good change of pace from going to Goose Loonies and Barry T's all the time.
David Morley So cool to see this comment from a fellow Edmontonian. I used to go to the Green House in Londonderry Mall too.
HELLH0WND Yup I went to Goose Loonies also many a Saturday night Gosh I miss those days. Miss the 80’s when I was in my 20’s :)
Club Malibu 🤙🏻 lol
I was there too!
MY GOD I amlways loved her voice.She is so beautiful and talented🙂
I loved and still love thi song. I'm 45 yrs old
55 and still loving this song
@@rhymeandreasoning same here these guys are a Canadian group
Love this song, still have it on a 45 rpm, what a beautiful voice and she was such a beauty...
When I first heard this song, I fell in love with it. It's one of my favourites to put on repeat.
sounds like gwen stefani
I feel exactly the same.
They are Canadian band
+Misty Waters (Sakiko123) one of my favs, too :) love this song
+Misty Waters (Sakiko123) me too :)
Did you know I still have this song on a cassette tape. Memorex tape to be exact. Still works too, love it !!!
I was able to find multiple copies of their two LPs on vinyl last year. Bought them all for a dollar each.
WOW COOL!! Love these classics!!!LOL
OMG! Cathy, you are sooo dating yourself LOL. But hey, I did the same thing in the 80's & 90's. Kids today wouldn't know old school cool stuff like that with their ipods & music on their cellphones :P
I still have the original store bought cassette. Love you Louise!
Are you that chick off JAG?
There were many great 80s bands: chalk circle, pursuit of happiness, frozen ghost, M and M, the spoons, Saga, Honeymoon suite
thank you, I will look them up and listen, hopefully
All centre in my music collection. All great bands!!!
Love them all!!!
ahhhh memories
Hipsway
I always loved this song but never new who it was that sang it. The chorus is fantastic, always makes me feel happy to be alive. Sounds a little like Roxette to me. Thanks for posting this tune, love it. And their Canadian.
Thanks for posting this upbeat song from One to One, a Canadian band from Ottawa, Ontario.
Didn't know they came from the city i live in!
Played this song for friends, a few of which had never heard it before. All swore '"this is the best Madonna song I've ever heard!! Is it new??"

I was an 80s teen and I don't know how I could have ever missed this. What a fabulous song.
This brings me back to sitting in my Nana and papas kitchen singing my heart out while my aunt sipped her wine. It makes me cry every time.
I loved this song since I was a little girl and I still love this song it never gets old ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I remember hearing this song I was 15 years old one hit wonders I am a follower of the 80s I have nieces to introduce these songs to I hope they like them
The new generation today have a whole different playlist .
Nothing beats the 80s
criminally underrated
I wish the masses would stop comparing Singer Louise Reny to anyone she is beyond Compare.
Great song and an all time favorite band of mine!!No one sounds like them... the lovely and talented Louise Reny is simply amazing and Leslie Howe can do no wrong!! Thanks for sharing this as it brings back so many wonderful memories of listening to CHML even though I lived hundreds of miles away in NJ!!

Wore out the cassette of this album! Seriously listened to constantly over a period of months. Louise's voice and Leslie Howard's music hooks just melded into pop perfection.
They used to play this video on MTV. 8th grade memories!
Really? I do not recall them or this song. But a few decades have passed since then...
@christopherhazell420 Although it got some airplay on MTV, it didn't crack the Top 40.
This bop will always be in my head
This song is playable over and over. What an incredible voice. I have to say it's in my top 5 EVER. I have to admit I only heard two other songs by this group but they were mediocre at best... This one is pure musical genius.
In which Louise Reny (One to One's singer) comes on like Canada's answer to Belinda Carlisle. I love this!
Great song, still have the 12 inch in my collection.
I adored this song and this video in the 80s. This was huge for us.
Nic, Angle in my Pocket is coming up on the TV..I've been thinking of you all day..❤ ;)😊 Thank you 😢😭 💕 👍
I heard this on the radio today. Still one of my faves.
Ottawa boy here. Was just thinking about this little gem. Thank you for posting!
Great pop song reached nr 92 och Billboard hot 100,. Should have been a much bigger hit.
I wasn't around in the '80s, but I used to hear this a lot on Up 97.7 in Calgary (now renamed as Soft Rock 97.7) back in early 2014 when I was in Grade 9. It's too bad this isn't on Spotify, I wanted to add it to my '80s playlist.

Awesome song! This is one of those great typical "takes you back to the 80's" song!! Just awesome
Great song! Wish you could get it on iTunes. Wore this cassette out!

This was a great song from a terrific album. Kim Wilde, Pat Benatar, Lee Aaron, geez.. no shortage of great female lead singers in the 80s.
Great video to my favorite One to One song. Recently heard this song on the radio for the first time in years. Brought back tons of memories, good memories. One to One rule, and this is a great 80's song. On the hunt for the very hard to find Forward Your Emotions.
Love this and hold me now…wish they had been bigger

Was just a minor blip for a couple of weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1986, peaking at just No. 92. Really fine and catchy tune. They had another single that also charted on the Billboard Hot 100 in the early or mid 90’s that only made it to No. 95.
What a cheerful song ! Can't get it out of my mind.
Yes it apiity of 80s k enjoy
the 80s were the best for music. They just dont make songs like this anymore... these upbeat yet emotional songs.
wish I could find it to download on Itunes... so many great memories wrapped up in this song & time in my life...
Louis Renee from Ottawa, Canada! I used to work with her, when we were all in high school, (some from Canterbury, some from Ridgemont) in her first group called Mainstream. She had an alright voice but had a lot of potential that we could see, so the sound man kept pushing the instruments volume so she had to try harder! Eventually had her singing from the diaphragm, the rest, as they say, was history!! That was around 1973-75 ish!
Great song!!
It's such an injustice that One 2 One never got the same recognition and success as No Doubt did in the 90's, even though she sounds just like Gwen Stefani.
You mean Gwen Stefani sounds like her..
Curt Wakeman So true, especially since One 2 One was making music way before No Doubt.
_True af_
I've always felt the same way. Granted No Doubt is a full band and One To One was just Louise and her boyfriend. But they did progress later on into Artificial Joy Club. But One To One had great production (for the time) and they had quite a bit of airplay in Canada, but for some reason never caught on Stateside. When they first came out Madonna was just a couple years into her stardom beginning, and Louise seemed to have that star power too, it's a shame they never were bigger.
didn't they work work with alanis before she added morrisette and abandoned her canadian dance music era
I fell for this song when it first came out and immediately got it on vinyl. That weekend I asked a club dj to play it and nobody seemed to care
- for it and it fell into obscurity. This has to be one of the 80's true hidden gems. Really pretty vocals along with a very nice arrangement. Too bad, because the group deserved a lot of recognition and the opportunity to do more.
I still hear this often on our Rewind station
I wish their music was on iTunes.
Come on iTunes Canada, this was a great band in the 80's up here!!!!!
an fascinating catchy song still in 2023 for me ! i´m addicted ...... this song is strong underrated
I grew up in the 70,s, but the 80's is where my heart is. College, girl friends and endless dances live on
Me to my friend. I was really into prog rock...bands like Genesis, ELP, YES, Strawbs etc etc. When the 80's came along my taste kind of changed in music. I fell in love with New Wave/Post Punk music. I'm a keyboard freek and 80's New Wave had a lot of keyboards in it's music.
A perfect song. Love the ending vocals. Love this song.
Guys, I don't know what you're thinking, but it's GREAT!!!!
Great band...beautiful music, one to one , take me back to the memory lane....loving every one of their albums...
