    Rachel Sweet is a terrific talented singer who is so under appreciated. She's right up there with the Ronnetts and Ronnie Spector or the Crystal's. Wow! Love those Girl Group Sounds of her voice.

    Mesmerizing, addicting. When I first heard this song. I thought the last part of the song didn’t match the beginning. Then I learned it is two songs combined.

    I've been in love with Rachel since I first heard her, long ago, on the radio in concert. King Biscuit concert series, I believe. More recently I've been trying to hear her again. I could watch her videos daily (now that I found them!) and I wonder what happened to this sweet, sweet voice.

    • @cvan3064

      @@cvan3064 Thank you for that. It's still too bad she doesn't still sing, unless her voice changed for the negative, so to speak. Be multi-talented. At least in her youth, her singing had a sexy appeal to it, on purpose or not. Thanks again

    Why all the recent comments in the last few days? And, they are not exactly trying to disguise the fact that she is lip syncing to her studio version. Pointing that out is no great insight.

    • @MartyMcFly88
      @MartyMcFly88 หลายเดือนก่อน

    • @TonyCo1962
      @TonyCo1962 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @MartyMcFly88 Exactly. If you read through some of the other comments, people point out that she's lip-syncing like they've discovered something we all don't know. It's the same crowd that always feels the need to point out that something's a cover. A good example is When Will I be Loved. On any video in which Linda Randstad is performing that, there's always a few that want to feel smart by pointing out that it's a cover of the Everly Brothers as if we all didn't know.

    • @WaltGekko

      Her problem had more to do with the state of radio in New York, where hits were often determined then:
      She never really got the success she should have gotten, largely because she was having her first chart success at a time of a massive change in New York radio when WABC had softened their format considerably ahead of a flip to talk on May 10, 1982 and WNBC having a program director known as "Kenny" in Howard Stern's 1995 autobiography "Private Parts" that Howard had other names for in real life that were none too pleasant he used all the way to that PD's death a few years ago who was VERY conservative (most notably during his time as PD, a band called Sneaker in 1982 had a song peak at #34 nationally "More Than Just The Two of Us" that got that high almost exclusively off airplay on WNBC, with that song in their 1982 year-end countdown was ahead of The Human League's "Don't You Want Me" that was a #1 hit nationally in the US). This left WYNY-FM (then at 97.1) as the closest to a Top 40 station in New York (and they were really adult contemporary) until WAPP-FM (then at 103.5, the two stations famously switched spots on the dial in 1988 after both changed their formats previously) and more notably WHTZ-FM (Z-100 at 100.3) debuted (40 years ago this Wednesday, August 2, 1983) and WPLJ at 95.5 completed a slow flip from Rock to Top 40 over the course of the summer of 1983. That is what prevented her from becoming bigger.
      While she didn't get the success musically, she was very successful overall, hosting her own show in the early 1990's on the then-fledgling Comedy Channel (now Comedy Central) and then REALLY hit it big as a writer on the TV Land (and later syndicated) series "Hot in Cleveland" that starred Betty White among others.

    I dunno how many people y'all think could do Ronnie Spector right but its a darn short list for me!
    Rachel Sweets first album, Fool Around, was full of great promise. She had a sweet voice ( that flat SOARS in this video) and a accessible sound of Rock, pop,new wave and country tinges .
    I don't think her mgmt or label knew quite what to do with her other than playing up the"Jailbait" angle.
    I'm glad she had the huge hit with Rex and then went on the produce one of the great shows -SPORTSNITE with Aaron Sorkin.
