Vanessa - Bandolero (Live)

A live performance of Vanessa's 1985 single "Bandolero", a tale involving jealous ladies who all want a piece of Vanessa's piece!!  Don't worry Vanessa, if he's anything like me, you're all he wants & needs!!

Vanessa - La Di Da

This video for Vanessa's 1983 hit "La Di Da" features a trio of fantastic outfits that I need!!!

Vanessa - Cheerio

In honor of my dear bestie Walter, here's Vanessa's other 1982 single, "CHEERIO"!  This is his favorite Vanessa song and he described these videos as "an audio-visual orgy of colors and beats!"  I could not agree more!!  The costumes, the bouncing bridge, the hair...oh this video is as joyous as this amazing song!!  You'll get to hear this song in one of Walter's upcoming short films...Vanessa is an inspiration to all!!!

Vanessa - Upside Down / I'm Getting Ready for Love / Obsession (MEDLEY!)

Seeing Vanessa live is probably a dream of mine that will stay a dream, but at least there are amazing YouTube videos that show just what a powerhouse she was live!!  Here, we get THREE of her biggest hits, including the very difficult to find late 80's single "I'm Getting Ready for Love"!!

Vanessa Is My OBSESSION!

"Obsession" is the name of Vanessa's 2nd "album" and one of Vanessa's biggest hits!  Needless to say, I was obsessed the minute I first laid eyes (and ears) on Vanessa and my obsession only grew as I delved deeper and deeper into her pop hit storm!!

Vanessa - The 2nd Chapter - Dynamite

It actually took me a few days before I listened to any Vanessa song other than "Upside Down".  It brought me utter delight when I finally did choose another song, and that song was "Dynamite"!  This song, oh this song is MAGIC!!  The A-B-C's of Vanessa are truly divine (and almost as good as Amanda Lear's!)  And at the 0:54 mark in the video, Vanessa buzzing down the street atop a shiny motorcycle...nothing is more POP!!  Oh to be a new student in the School of Vanessa, majoring in VANESSA!!!  I am in LOVE!

Vanessa & Kids - Happy X-mas (War Is Over)

Late in her career as Vanessa, Vanessa recorded a cover single for the Lennon/Ono hit "Happy X-Mas (War Is Over)".  The song features Vanessa's four children as her backing choir!  The best part of the song is the closing moments when Vanessa is telling each child individually that she loves them.  I need to dub my name over Constanza's for sure so Vanessa can tell me she loves ME!!!

Sadly I can't find a complete and uninterrupted version of the song, but this still works.  From 1992, Vanessa & Kids performing "Happy X-mas (War Is Over)":
