Today’s video pick is a 1986 hit by Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam. With Full Force. And Bow-Legged Lou. Now see if you can identify all of them while you watch the video… Also be on the lookout for more dreamy pastel pink accents than you’ve ever seen in a grown woman’s room. But it was the ’80s…
And who wouldn’t have yearned for the powder pink television on the nightstand, or the amazing rosy peplum outfit Lisa Lisa wears near the end of the piece. Today, allow yourself to get lost in a smoke-filled room while a chandelier hangs overhead. Relish the drama of raw emotion as the camera pans past a piano draped in a silky blanket anchored by a vase of pink blooms. See Lisa Lisa walk through a sunny meadow with her love, then fight with him in the rain.
Today it’s all about the drama, and nobody does it better than Lisa Lisa, especially when supported by Full Force, her collaborating songwriting and production team. Thank you, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, for making my childhood so musically and visually fabulous!
