After an excruciating absence from recording, '80s and '90s pop superstar Paula Abdul is releasing a new single called "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow." Ryan Seacrest debuted the song on his morning radio show last week. (Check it out here.) The only place I've been able to hear the song unfettered is here.
Produced by fellow American Idol judge Randy Jackson and appearing as the lead track and first single from his forthcoming album, Randy Jackson's Music Club, Volume 1, "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow" is going to surprise many by being not nearly the disaster people are hoping for. (I'll never understand why people are so ignorant to Paula Abdul. I imagine it has something to do with their own self-hatred. There's no other reason to so dislike someone who is arguably one of the sweetest people in the world.)
Jackson and Abdul shot a video for the song on January 21 which will premiere during FOX's coverage of the Super Bowl on February 3. (FOX, by the way, is turning the Ryan Seacrest-hosted Super Bowl into the biggest American Idol commercial ever produced.) The song is extremely radio-friendly and will be a club banger for sure. If all goes as planned (and if it doesn't, it won't be for lack of exposure), it will be Abdul's 9th song to reach the top 10. (The last was "Blowing Kisses In the Wind," which was released fifteen years ago.)
Speaking of Paula's older material, last night was the first time I ever saw the full video for her last single (1996's "Ain't Never Gonna Give You Up," which was all-but ignored by MTV and VH1). It's fantastic and a great reminder that the woman has moves! Watch it here. (Search for "Paula Abdul" and scroll down to the music videos section at the bottom of the page.)
