Paula Abdul's "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow"

I have to say her new song and video are really growing on me... I suppose she's kinda 'controversial' in US due to her specific (lol) behaviour, I haven't heard/seen her previous works, but she sure seems like a pretty good dancer/choreographer.

What do you guys think?

I may have to check this out... I used to listen to Paula Abdul when I was younger. She had some pretty infectious 80s hits...

I'm not a fan. I just can't take her seriously.

I thought Randy being in the video was so corny I didn't like video but I like the song I don't have anything against Paula, I just can't really get used to watching her perform I guess.

There's plenty I'd say, there would have been more if they dropped the band scenes.

And the last frame with Ryan and the Idol judges was simply "WTF?" Utterly corny and pointless.

I think a lot of parts of the video were corny. But Paula is all about the 1990's so I guess cornyness should be expected. I thought the air blowing in her hair was a little cliche, but she looked good atleast

I miss 'Straight Up' Paula, I loved that song growing up. I'm not really sure if I like her new single or not. I'm on the fence.

i LOVE this song and the video is amazing...im so glad Paula is making a comeback....i cant wait for her new album *if there is one*....i love her videos, although Randy Jackson looked stupid in it...it's a dance song, so why is there a band? i love the shots of her alone with the mic and her hair in her face....she's in her mid 40's and she's still dancing like she used to! keep it up Paula!

also, has anyone noticed that she's been sane/sober throughout ALL of this season of Idol? She gives real criticism now and she's stopped doing that horrible clap....

First time for me to hear this song (or any song) from Paula. I didn't even know she's a singer, and I don't even remember I heard her songs before, so I guess she hasn't released anything outside America.

But I think that song was nice. I liked those 90's music videos and I liked this one a lot. That music video was really cool and Paula looked really good on it. Song itself was catchy pop song, and I liked it too. It was a bit shame Paula's voice was modified like that, so I couldn't hear how she really sounds like. :<

I burst out laughing when Simon Cowell and Ryan appeared at the end of the video. Yeah, I know these people, because American Idol is shown here. \,,/ What an awesome program I'd say. Even better than that Finnish version of it (which isn't even shown here this year, I wonder why).

Song was cool though. ^^b

Ditch Randy and that last shot of the American Idol Judges and Ryan Seacrest, it would have made a nice PV! I really like some of the shots and the dancing! The black and white contrast is fantabulous!

The song's rather catchy, I like how the whole 80s/early 90s vibes are incorporated.
