Billboard Loves Paula!


Billboard.Com just reviewed Paula's new single "Dance Like There's No Tomrrow" and they loved it! They are hoping for that comeback that the rest of america is hoping for.



OK, maybe Paula Abdul's greatest attribute has never been vocal valor—but anyone who luxuriated in MTV's golden era can't help but fondly sigh over late-'80's/ early-'90s No. 1 hits "Straight Up," "Forever Your Girl," "Cold Hearted," even "Opposites Attract" featuring the animated MC Skat Kat. Abdul's last hit was more than a decade ago, but the 45-year-old "American Idol" judge fires a bull's-eye with uptempo "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow," the first single from producer and fellow "AI" judge Randy Jackson's upcoming album "Music Club: Volume 1." The giddy, beat-intensive track is an ace-on match for Abdul's breathy execution, with rapid-fire verses and a peppy, positive lyric: "I'm so ready to move my body, forget about all my problems/When I hear that song, I'm gonna lose control." With her beloved, sunny disposition, not to mention a Super Bowl performance this month and plenty of props from American's No. 1 TV series, signs point to potential for a fervent comeback. According to Abdul's Web site, a solo album is also in the making, due this summer. A real feel-good return. —Chuck Taylor
