    I really miss the energy and creativity of the 80s. The spectrum of music was much broader and the artist were so much more unique. Bring back the 80s!

    When I was in college in the 80s I had just turned 21 and after a few months I was bored of the San Diego bar scene. I wanted to go to Los Angeles to hit their bar scene. My buddy got us as far as Orange County. We were at a bar near Cal State Fullerton and I was dancing with a pretty gal when I heard the drum beats of this song come on, there, on each wall motorized projector screens dropped from the ceiling and this song came on. My mind was so freaking blown. I couldn't help but watch her. The song ended, the screens went back up Never to return the rest of the night>
    Oh yeah, Jody. You are magical.

    One of the most gorgeous creatures to ever grace this Earth. She is like a modern day Nefertiti. The fact that she has tremendous talent and style in addition to that breathtaking beauty makes her one of the most captivating musical stars we've ever had in the U.S. For awhile I thought she had a chance to give Madonna a run for her money, but the quality of her albums started to slip after the first two and she was unable to regain the necessary momentum to reclaim her prominence.. Regardless, she will always be a favorite of mine, and I have to say, when people are unaware of her it drives me nuts!

      Her music quality did not slip, she made several great records after her first two. I think hers sales dipped partly because she was growing as a person and artist and her music became more mature and not all dance pop RnB. Her Affairs of the Heart album is her best work (in my opinion) with excellent dance, mid tempos and ballads with adult/real life themes and she sounds amazing. Sometimes music fans put artists in a box and don't or can't embrace their growth. It has happened to many singers.

    Jody Watley! What can I say Lady? I can say three words that fit your attitude, personality and professional career: SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!
    From the time I watched you as a dancer with your partner Jeffery Daniel on Soul Train back in the 1970's to the time you spent as a superstar performing with Shalamar to the time you became a super-duper star when you branched out and showed you had what it took to go solo, you have done it better than all the rest that came before and after you.
    Keep on shining Jody!!!! You have fans out here that will always love you and have the utmost respect for what you've contributed to top-notch Entertainment!

SHE CAUGHT MY EYES AND THAT WAS A RAP. AND TO SEE HER PREFORM WITH SALAMAR TOOK MY BREATH AWAY. SHE STILL HAS IT TOGETHER. SHE IS A ORIGINAL SWEET SOUL WHO STAYED TRUE TO HER SELF & HER GIFT. I AM A FAN FOREVER ALWAYS 💞💞💖💖💓💓💃😎💣🎤
