Well, Scorpio, I actually wondered if some of the earlier performers were lip-synching. But it's clear that these are not.


Now . . .
Missing Persons (early 80s)
Singing 'WORDS'

Oh, I remember this! I liked it.

Ugh. This band sucked in the 80's and still do.

Why are they doing one of their more obscure songs? Everyone knows this band from the song, "Walking In LA".

Sounding rather tame tonight--for what I recall as a far-out kind of group.

Is her name really 'Dale'? (So is mine!) Ha!

She's doing a good job with this song.

Juice Newton: Wow! Did you see the definition in her arms?! Unbelievable --(as was the height of her bustline). Heh. This 2nd song is a different mood--just average, though.


Wow, these Animotion people are interesting! I liked what the mom said! Hmmm. She is much more electric than the guy. But the music sounds discordant or something.

At least Juice could sing the song (as opposed to Ashley)

I can barely recall this song. But I think it's a dance-oriented song. They've tried to turn into a rock song. It didn't work.

I don't know what they were trying to spin on that song, but it didn't work.

I loved PM Dawn back in the 80s.

Shannon sounded like she had a cold in that clip.
I just don't care for this type of song. Blick.

"Kc103: If there is one thing that is reinforced by watching this show it is that MAGIC and MIRACLES can be achieved in a recording studio and a live performance can show just how painfully average a singer is."

Just got a chance to get back on the computer here. Oh, I surely agree with you about that Scorpio! I remember exactly why I walked out of the Missing Persons show I went to about a decade ago after seeing tonight's show!

I rather enjoyed PM Dawn's second performance tonight, so I was pleased with the outcome. They'll probably bring the show back for short stints if they can find enough willing participants for it.

one of the women - I believe it's Juice - was a Playboy.

Every Wed. morning the cutie host appeared on The Today Show (they always commented on his really white teeth) and did a trivia game on the groups that would be performing that evening.

Although I knew all of the songs tonight, I didn't remember what any of them looked like. I briefly met PM Dawn in the early 90's at an industry party.

I really enjoyed this show, and hope they do more. It's been fun reminiscing back to when these songs were hits - and to see & hear what they are like now.

Vanilla Ice was definitely one of my favorites because 1) I loved the song "Ice Ice Baby", and 2) was so impressed that he actually did it considering the way he's felt all these years about his Vanilla Ice image.

Luvmykitties - that's exactly how DH and I felt about Vanillar Ice---- I mean Vanilla Ice. He must have gone through some serious successful psycho therapy to return to that part of his life. We remember seeing him on the Sureal Life and the big stink he made over that image.

He seemed to really despise his former image at the beginning of the Surreal Life. I remember when they were doing karaoke or whatever in that bar and the girls were doing his song. He was not pleased, but eventually decided to do it himself. I think he's come to the realization that many people actually still enjoy his music from the past and that he's not always the butt of everyone's joke. Maybe doing the Surreal Life gave him a chance to work through that some. He may have gotten a positive response from the public again..and that may have helped him make peace with some of the past.

I also feel Surreal Life helped him. Good points Kc103. I agree.

It was like we witnessed the transformation when he actually sang his song (and got into it!) at the Karaoke bar.
I also think Eric Estrada was a great influence on him.

I remember years ago there was a show on MTV or VH1 (can't remember what the show was - but I remember Mike Myers was there and they were sitting around in a living room type setting. Probably a countdown of something like worst videos or whatever)
Rob came in and started smashing everything thing in sight. The people there jumped out of the way and were a bit scared.
That's when I realized how much he despised his Vanilla Ice persona, and so it wasn't surprising to me the way he acted at the beginning of Surreal Life. Surreal Life was actually tame to the anger he displayed on that MTV or VH1 show.

Well, I listened to a couple of groups and thought they were terrible, didn't even recognize them and switched the channel. I think this was one of the weakest shows (from what I saw) for a finale. My DS said he recognized the song one of them was playing, but it sounded terrible and not really like it should, so I guess that was two thumbs down from our house. LOL

I had thought all the winners were going to face off on a final show? Didn't they say something about that? I could have sworn.

I totally agree Watching2 with it being the weakest show yet. And for a finale made it all the more disappointing.

As a matter of fact, NBC Universal sent me a survey (I signed up at their site awhile ago) asking me about a bunch of Reality shows (watched this past week only) - this show being one of them. I expressed how much I loved this show - but how disappointed I was at this last episode and how weak I thought it was.

Madelane - I also thought I heard them say something about all the previous finalists, but it was kind of vague.

The British version had all the winners compete in a finale show, but it seems like here they orginally planned and recorded only those first three episodes, so I guess it was too late to organise a winners' showdown when they decided to add the extra eps.

I liked the first three episodes but didn't recognise one of the artists on the last two shows. Kinda takes the fun away...

I had stopped watching this show after the first two episodes, Boy, it really stunk, I doubt seriously we will see it back on the tube, i'll be suprised if we do.

Luvmykitties - it was MTV doing a video retiring show. They retired the Ice Ice Baby video from rotation and they had him come in and he was smashing up his video. The hosts (including Mike Meyers) were really worried they were going to get hurt.

Thank you for refreshing my memory Icesk8ter!
Wasn't Jon Stewart on as well?

Rob/Vanilla went crazy smashing his video - as well as other things on the set - which really scared them all (as I would have been). I just remember them all jumping out of the way and popcorn and pieces of stuff was flying around.
And, it was the first time I had seen his new look.

THAT was quite the display of anger!


Maybe they'll show it again as part of some other "highlights/countdown" show. I'd like to see it again.
