Straight up - Paula Abdul

Pop is a weird beast. What sounds trendy at one point, can sound totally outdated the next. Such is the case with this single by Paula Abdul. Hip and trendy in 1989, this sounds very much like a product from its time now. And I stress the word 'product', because songs like this were promoted like they were a new sort of cereal at the time.

That's not to say that this is necessarily a bad track: it still bounces around quite cheerily. Paula's thin voice can become grating after a while though.
