Empress Reaction
"Cold Hearted" is a 1989 song by American singer Paula Abdul from the album Forever Your Girl, written and co-produced by Elliot Wolff. It hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the album's third song to top the US chart.
People tend to forget just how huge Paula was
she was big - ish :)
For a short time. A long, long, long time ago.
@@Parker-930 right. She was HUGE! For like 2-3 years.
She was massive for about 2-3 years actually. There were Madonna, Janet and Paula as far as dance divas go, and Paula often won awards over both, and I think she actually outsold Rhythm Nation with Forever Your Girl.
@@adua78 - Just goes to show how meaningless awards can be sometimes.
This was a nice trip down memory lane. Paula was a triple threat back in the day- long before American Idol. AND the choreo was all hers. It’s still boggles the mind to realize how she parlayed a start as a Lakers cheerleader into legit A-list pop star status, but she had the right look, the right moves and the right celebrity connections to make it happen. Whenever a new Paula Abdul release dropped, it definitely was a media event. And seeing the choreo from Cold Hearted Snake ❄️💔🐍 32 years later, have to ssssssay it’s held up ssssssuper sssssstrong and ssssstill ssssslaps! 🐍🐍🐍💯
Why you so fine tho? 😂
She is trained in so many types of dances, I love it when she tap dances. She is so talented!
Finally. Paula Abdul is amazing. She was huge back in the 80's and early 90's. Other great songs are "Straight Up", "Knocked Out", "Rush, Rush" and "The Promise Of A New Day". She has many more really good songs.
I forgot how good this is. The rap section always catches me off guard (it's not on the album version).
That whole first album is jam after Jam!!! She couldn't really sing 🤣lol but she rode them beats! She did that! So good 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I was so disappointed when the rap portion was not on the album!
@@auntydale3379 I had the cassette while Knocked out was still a single. So I was in for one hell of a ride. It was a nice surprise when there was a rap even though it wasn’t on the album!
Love me some Paula Abdul, my favorite song of hers is Rush Rush.
Great reaction! My favourite Paula Abdul song and video
Damn straight Paula had the moves. Didn't you know she choreographed for Janet Jackson?
There's a reason she was an American Idol judge. Paula Abdul was quite a pop star back in the day. She had lots of good songs. This is her best video, but "Opposites Attract" is really good too.
This is my favorite dance track of Paula Abdul - it’s hot fire 🔥 BOP! She got very sweet songs (one of them went #1) too, don’t underestimate Miss Paula!
Cold-Hearted went #1 September 1989
It was the #6 song of the year 1989. Her other smash ‘Straight Up’ went #1 and was the #3 song of the year 1989. BOOM! 🔥
🔥
Paula's reaction at the very end of the video to the guy saying, "it's very nice", reminds me of Madonna's reaction to Kevin Costner calling her show "neat".
We aren’t there yet!!
All the music references just make my heart so happy... you know your music!
thank u!
We love this iconic Paula Abdul moment...those moves...def here for her SASSY side! 🔥
I LOVE tha song and tha video!!! SMOKING.LOL.😎😎The dance routine is OFF tha CHARTS!!! You can tell by their performances these dancers are well-trained(IE-TAKEN DANCE CLASSES)not just hip-hop dancers off tha streets.(IE-STREET DANCERS)
Yoooo her backupdancers killed that!!!
This song was written and produced by Elliott Wolf who also was responsible for another Paula #1 hit Straight Up. Definitely in the same vein as Janet and the new jack swing or Jill (ha ha) sound of the day. Princess, love that you know your stuff and know Paula helped define Janet’s dance style that has stayed with her throughout her career! May I suggest The LA Reid/baby face written and produced stunner Giving You the Benefit by Pebbles? Another new Jill swing bop
She already did that. My jam.
This song was her fifth single of this album. After two modest hits of her debut album who the album didn't sell so much, when ''Straight Up'' gained in radio airplay without a single released because of the San Fransisco radio (the first radio to it's started to playing hugely ''Straight Up'', Virgin decided to promotes officially ''Straight Up'' has the third single to surfing at this unexpected success of this song. After this song started to gained success and reaching n.1 in US, the ''Forever Your Girl'' album starting to sales so much and Virgin, who abandonned originally the promotion of this album, started to promote again the album and released others songs of this album in single to continue this success starting with ''Straight Up''. Then begin ''Forever Your Girl'' (the title-track) who it's also reaching n.1. When ''Cold Hearted'' was released has the fifth single, Paula decided to make a change compared to the album version, she recording a rap part, not feature originally in the album. ''Cold Hearted'' was also a n.1 single.
In total, the ''Forever Your Girl'' album produced four n.1 singles and this record was celebrating in a party with Paula and all others members of Virgin who celebrating the huge impact of this album.
Love this song & video, so excited to see you react to it 💗 💫
Paula was Janet Jackson’s choreographer for Janets Control album. ;)
This album was IT! I got the Forever Your Girl cassette in my Christmas stocking that year from my oldest sister. Destiny’s Child ain’t shhht!😳😆
She was pretty massive. It’s so funny back then just about all of the pop queens had varying blends of singing and dancing talent. From Whitney who could just stand there and sing and blow you away with her voice to Paula who probably had the most limited singing ability but could dance her tiny little butt off. Her voice did have a sweetness to it though that was appealing. Once she established herself with her dancing, even her ballad “Rush, Rush” was huge. Loved Paula.
She is still a great dancer.. you should watch her Billboard Award performance from a few years ago..
In these days, we had Paula, Janet, and Madonna... I had to stay up late on the weekends to catch their videos.
The Shut Up and Dance album is DOPE!
Paula was a Beast.... Love the ''rap'' . Please React to ''Straight Up''
Oh yes, she was anc us a dance choreographer. I don't know how you feel about Michael's sister Janet, but Abdul choreographed all of Janet Jackson's videos from her Control album, spectacular too
Great intro album. Beat was cranked throughout. My fave was the first video, Knocked Out. Instant slam!
video based on the movie All That Jazz and the scene called Airerotica directed by the great Bob Fosse. talking about dancing, Paula was it back in the day choreographing many including the video what have you done for me lately by Janet Jackson so she has skills
YASSSSSS Paula!!! Love this song. Forever Your Girl is my FAV!! Such a bop. 👯♂️
Another good "girl, you can do better than him" type of song is Pebbles' "Girlfriend," which was a Babyface/L.A. Reid production.
While I was in Love with Madonna my bf at the time was in love with Paula. Lol. I love her video for Opposites Attract. She was a little cutie back then and she still is a little cutie now. I love seeing her on dif competition shows. She just was on one called The Masked Dancer and filled in as a judge on American Idol just a couple weeks ago.. Her performance on the 2019 Billboard Music Awards was fantastic. She's still got it. 🙂
That whole first album by Paula was playing constantly back then. It was Paula and Janet’s Control that we’re my two favorite albums from the 80s. 🔥🔥🔥
I love Paula and this song. Ohhhh the memories when this came out! She was really hot here. Love that see thru top😍😉😉
Paula was a big star late 80's, she also worked with george michael on his faith tour
Chile we used to love Paula in the hood!
The moves - 🔟
The song - 🔟
The video - 🔟 (giving off Fame vibes)
The voice - 4️⃣
This song hits hard though. And for Drag Race fans can we ever forget the epic Coco vs Alyssa lip sync battle to the death? The spinning jump into the split? I mean c’mon!
Yes I was thinking of Coco also. Coco was so good I hope she comes back for another All Stars one day. All Stars 2 did her dirty!
No lie, I still have this music video on VHS tape; recorded back when MTV was good... 🤣 I would pop in the tape and pretend like I was one of her backup dancers... There were others from the countdown as well: Mowtown Philly (Boys Two Men) Shiny Happy People (REM) and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (Cyndi Lauper)
something about the way you talk...I really enjoy listening to that voice communicate the vast amount of music knowledge stored inside you. thanks for sharing again with us. see ya again soon. go with God. peace.
Thank u‼️
Janet's songs were choregraphed by Paula Abdul, not the other way around.
This video is awesome and that along with Straight Up is Paula's best song ever.
Actually one of the best straight up dance videos ever along with Janet Jackson's If imo.
I first saw this like 10 years ago on youtube and gave 10s across the board for it as well. We vibin' as usual to the funky tracks :D
Paula in her prime. Amazing video and the idea was taken from the movie “All That Jazz” a great musical in my humble opinion. Another great dance number from the movie is “Everything Old Is New Again!” Empress you should definitely react to that!
Got this album on Vinyl a couple months ago :D Its a BOP !
She helped Janet too
Yayyy! I’m glad you reacted to this one. I think the song was ok but the video made it so much better. 🔥 I wasn’t a big fan but yeah her image was iconic. Her choreography and dancing are stellar. I have 2 of her workouts on DVD and they’re fun! 🙌🏼
Edit: I forgot to say she was emulating the final dance audition scene in Flashdance in front of the stuffy panel.
Wow. I can't believe I never noticed how Janet Jackson's "If" uses the some of the exact same choreography from this video.
''IF'' Was choreographed by the Amazing Tina Landon Paula's former Dancer. Yes, you can see the similarities here. But i guess that's a good thing.
@@mannydem1 I don't think Tina ever danced for Paula
@@JEBsDailyDose Check out Janets
What have you done for me lately and When I think of you videos “
Both videos were choreographed by Paula Abdul and she picked the dancers herself for these videos. Even Tina herself said that Paula call her and ask her if she wanted to be on janets video. Look it up.
Thank you!
I'm perplexed that Paula and Janet never collaborated on a song. During this debut album of Paula, she blew up on radio and this album I believe was released when Madonna's Like A Prayer was released. Paula was another girl Madonna competed on the charts.
Paula choreographed a bunch of Janet's videos, like What Have You Done For Me Lately.
It was so competitive back then. Taylor Dayne, Belinda Carlisle, Gloria Estefan, Jody Watley, and so many more.
@@ravenize9655 - yeah, I wished they had done a song together and the music video showcasing both of their dance talents. Of course, we see Paula as a background dancer on Janet's WHYDFML? and Nasty Boys but that's feels different to me.
@@dtaylor939 It absolutely was. And all of the ladies you mentioned as well as other female artists really were all phenomenal.
@@FirstYT40 They did a dance off together on an awards back in the day. I don't remember which one though.
Great reaction Empress! You really got what Paula Abdul was about with your afterthoughts. Not the best vocalist as you noted, but she could dance and perform with the best of them. Paula and Madonna were my favorite pop stars when I was a kid in the '80s. I actually preferred Paula for sheer fun until the early '90s. Her catalog of hits is worth exploring. She has a ton of fun pop hits and a few ballads. Have a great day.
I grew up in the 80s and I don't remember hearing that rap segment at all. It must have been on an LP version or something. She hooked it.
Wasn’t on the original LP. I got that cassette early in the game. The rap debuted in the video.
@@taintedlife2618 Oh, cool.
Paula was the girl. She was a Laker girl. She was the choreographer for the Jacksons and then Janet Jackson. Paula vocals were very very limited. Never heard her sing live. She was on the "tape tour" with Milli Vanilli. Yet she had some good pop records. The Forever Your Girl album is her best selling and packed with hits. L.A. & Babyface produced Knocked Out for her, not this one. On Whitney Houston's documentary she said that Paula could even sing on key on her records(epic read).
Please react to her video “Rush,Rush” love that song & it has Keanu Reeves in it.
The original “If”
i tired to comment on ur reaction to Robbie Williams but it wasnt available. you should check out his song he did with the Pet Shop Boys called "she's Madonna" about, well... Madonna. it's a great song and the video is cray cray but kind of awesome, too.
If you interest, Ariana Grande made a homage to this video in her new music video ''Yes And?''. Paula posted comparaison of the two videos in her instagram.
o h cool
You should check out "Opposites Attract" it is such a fun song and video.
I have thanks to the patrons. The reaction is on my patreon. TH-cam blocked it
@@EmpressReacts smh. Leave it to TH-cam to always be blocking something. 🙄
@@le2800 🤣💯
You need some Straight Up in your life. This lady was huge. So is so talented.
I have never been a Paula's fan, anyway, of I remember well, she was very appreciated as a choreographer, more than as a singer. Anyway this Is a good Song.
You gotta react to Straight Up, Opposites Attract, and my fav, Rush Rush.
Definitely had her poster on my wall in college - such a hot babe
Paula was/is a great dancer and choreographer; but not much of a singer. I remember reading that they tried to amplify her voice in the studio by double-tracking it and it was still not the best. Regardless, this is probably her best song and her debut album was a major hit. She also choregraphed a lot of the early Janet Jackson tracks from Control :)
Not go very one needs to be Whitney Houston. I would rather be able to write my own songs any day over having the voice but yeah people get up in arms over that when they have no talent to speak of themselves.
Loved this song, but OMG😱, if you enjoyed that, you absolutely must watch the video of this song with clips edited together with from the UK tv show "Bad Girls" th-cam.com/video/4xG-Xccvkrg/w-d-xo.html. Set in a British women's prison, Jim Fenner is one of the prison officers. He's an evil, manipulative b*stard who puts the women on both sides of the bars through hell. He IS a reptile, and this video sums him up perfectly. Highly recommend watching the TV show too, if you can access it.
I really miss the talent from back in the day. Modern is eh.
IMHO, the only Paula single that has aged well is "Straight Up." This song does nothing for me but the choreo and set obviously inspired the Pussycat Dolls so Paula deserved her place in music history but it was short-lived for good reason.
The very nerve of saying this single didn’t age well and then mentioning Pussycat Dolls cheap selves. Her first album is Poppin!
@@taintedlife2618 Ehhh…. It didn’t age well. Pure 80’s cheese. It’s all fine and good if you personally enjoy it but objectively, it doesn’t stand the test of time the way most of Janet or Madonna’s stuff did.
Such a scandal back in the day.
