Title: an 80s dance music diva is back!
Post by: CellarDweller on January 22, 2009, 07:09:51 pm

Anyone who went to dance clubs in the 80s will remember the music of Judy Torres.

A freestyle diva, her freestyle songs got constant rotation in clubs and on dance radio stations. "No Reason For You To Cry", "Come Into My Arms", "Love Story", "Love You, Will You Love Me", "Please Stay Tonight", "I Love You For All Seasons", "Back In Your Arms Again".

In 2006, she returned to airwaves and dance clubs with a remake of Journey's "Faithfully".

In 2009, Judy is back with a new original song. Titled "Hell No", the song is about women finding the courage to leave abusive relationships.

Check out the video, and tell me what ya think!

Hey there, Chuck!

Thanks for posting this one.  I wasn't familiar with her (her not being the Grateful Dead nor Phish  ::)) but I liked it.  I thought the image of the domestic abuser as an 'enemy soldier' very powerful.  I hope it inspires a lot of young people caught in situations they aren't equipped to navigate.  Kudos.
