LISA STANSFIELD “Can’t Dance”
I was delighted to find out that British singer Lisa Stansfield will be releasing her new album Seven this Fall, her first in almost ten years, and that it is being preceded by the slick and retro R&B-inflected song that captures her signature style, “Can’t Dance”.
Lisa started off as a member of dance outfit Coldcut with their hit “People Hold On”, in the late 80’s, and went on to have million-selling hits that are still played today such as the sinewy “All Around The World”, the emotional dance pop of “This Is The Right Time”, and “Real Love”, which became her 3rd R&B chart #1. One of her best vocal performances is in the cover of Cole Porter’s “Down In The Depths” from the Red, Hot & Blue project, and she also tackled Barry White’s “Never, Never Gonna Give You Up” in the late 90’s.
“Can’t Dance” is one of those songs that will light up Nu Disco dance floors with that familiar voice of hers – I’m hoping there will be some remixes to ensure its success in clubs. Listen above.
