When this song came out, everyone was all like "Whoa, she's Prince only prettier!" and "Wow, a chick who plays drums!" Well, watching this now, it's a lot lamer than I remembered, and one of my college roommates played drums a lot better than Ms. E. But I still like the song for some reason. Plus, it was going through my head.
Here's her other major hit, which was equally catchy:
I wonder why Prince didn't appear in the videos, since he clearly had a lot to do with the songs and sang in them. These songs remind me a lot of his song "Pop Life".

Klymaxx was an all-female funk/R&B band whose main hits were circa 1985. These two videos are... well... an interesting display of the fashion / hairstyles at the time.
Fishbone is a wacky, wacky group. My favorite song of theirs is Lyin' Ass Bitch, but this one is right up there.
The song on the 1985 EP "Fishbone" is several minutes longer, but this clip is right at the end of the song. Not as brilliant as the whole thing, but it suffices.
This song is also on that EP, and is also pretty good:
Lead singer Dr. Madd Vibe is truly wacky. The man must be totally off his rocker, but in a good way.
