    Irene Cara really has a powerful voice, her first pop hit was a song called "Fame(I'm gonna live forever)" it was for the movie Fame, a movie about young talent trying become famous, this movie was a musical with dancing and singing and Irene Cara played the character named Coco Hernandez. The movie became a TV show 2 years later. This song, "What A Feeling" was for a movie called "Flash Dance" and it also became a hit. This performance brings back memories, thanks guys!

Forget Me Nots, Remind Me or Haven't You Heard, to start. She was a child prodigy, plays many instruments, writes and is an overall musical genius, basically. You'll love her. Nice reaction to Ms Cara. Peace
