February 17, 201015 yr Member Have you ever seen this? I watch it quite a bit. Grace Jones circa 1977 sings "Tomorrow" and gives it a great kick. It certainly fits the rough and tumble nature of the old comic strips more than the somewhat treacly movie and musical. It starts at about 4:40
February 18, 201015 yr Member Aw, HELL YES!!!!! Carl, I never seen her sing "Tomorrow" before!!! I love Grace Jones more than words can say, this bitch is FIERCE! What a great version of that song!
February 18, 201015 yr Author Member Yeah, I haven't kept up with Grace's more recent stuff, but I love what I've heard of her 70s and 80s stuff. When I found this clip I was baffled at the idea of her singing the Annie song but she really makes it fly. It's fascinating how easily adaptable the Annie songs are to different interpretations (eg, the rap version of Hard Knock Life).
February 18, 201015 yr Member Carl, "I Need A Man", and "La Vie En Rose" were my two favorites by her. Then a few of her later hits like "Pull up to the Bumper", and 'Nipple to The Bottle" are pretty awesome as well. As a performer, she's just MESMERIZING, she's the only woman I know who can perform with boobs falling out of her dress and hairy armpits and still be utterly FABULOUS: Edited February 18, 201015 yr by alphanguy74
February 18, 201015 yr Author Member My favorite of hers is "I Need a Man" and the one about "walking...walking...in the rain." And "Demolition Man." "My Caribbean Guy" is great too. I used to have a CD of hers with this crazy cover, I think she's totally naked, from the side, with only tape covering her nipples.
February 18, 201015 yr Member Love disco, love Broadway, love Grace but hate this,. It's from her second disco album (which has the divine slow disco Vie en Rose) which has a side two medley of showtunes from the time--Chorus Line's What I Did for Love, A Little Night Music's Send in the Clowns and this. LOL It's too campy even for me. Vie En Rose is my fave (and its followup clone song Autumn Leaves done exactly the same) but I love her Trevor Horn production, Slave to the Rhythm (in all its 22 hundred variations). Saw her in concert last year--she jumped into the crowd--was crazy (and clearly on something) but fabulous.

Eric, from what I hear through the grapevine... that bitch knows how to PARTY :lol: I'd love to see her live, I bet it was really memorable.
February 18, 201015 yr Member I love her in Boomerang, hell, I love anyone who is brave enough to wear three types of fur at the same time. And her ass is epic (I'll link since I don't know SON's policy on booty imagery): http://seenbybean.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/grace7.jpg
