Cameo - She's Strange

Cameo - She's Strange

Lyrics:
Straaaannnnggeee....
Ow, fine lady
Ow
I like the way she walks
I like the way she talks
She turns me on with a special concern
Now I'm a different guy
And I don't compare to many
But next to her I'm plain ordinary
Not many can see the light blue aura
That surrounds the girl wherever in the world
She's a 9, a 10 a 25th
She's bittersweet and .....
She's strange
And I like it
She's strange
Just the way she is
Strange
Walking down the avenue
She's strange
Always doing something new
She's the kind of person everybody knows
She reeks distinction from head to toe
She's my twilight zone, my Al Capone
She's my rolling stones and my Ava Perone
And I like it
Yes I like it
I like it
The way she wears her hair
And I like it
Oh oh
I like it
In room 123, she elusive you see, like the invisible man in drag,
And when you come to meet her, you'll never greet her, she'll be waving her skirt as a flag,
Like the cold in October she'll take you right over,
It's not mean to be facetious
And that look in her eye says your the guy she plans to spend this evening with
She's strange
And I like it
She's strange
Just the way she is
Strange
Walking down the avenue
She's strange
Always doing something new
No, No, No, No, No
Knock me off my feet,
Strange

Classics like this never die!!! I wished music stayed this way.

[carlbowles]

This song still gets the job done, my favorite Cameo tune, they were at their best. 1984 still lives 👍👏😂🤗🎼🌞.

[Arvesikdt]

One of the best drum arrangements ever.

[BleekSix]

That Bassline !!! Legendary I tell ya ... Ever since I was a child it made me do a funky face & groove to it ...

[stanleysimmons]

Get it Cameo!!! This is one of my all-time favorite jams to listen & dance to!!

[simongarrettmusic]

Cameo have a MASSIVE back catalog - i grew up only really knowing this and Word Up and some dude turned me on to Flirt and then i got hold of all their albums and was amazed - solid albums.. brilliant

[grizzlyaarbear]

I told myself that I would never be like my uncle's....stuck in their era of music....now I'm stuck in the late 70s-early 80s!

[carlbowles]

Incredible tune cameo at it's peak of greatness.

[anthonyleighton]

another classic from cameo - one of the few bands to go from the raw funk - to the digital age seamlessly

[Splizzniff]

I’m the son of one of the keyboard players of Cameo named Jeff Nelson aka White Boy Jeff. I’m so happy to see everyone still bopping to this song so many years after it’s release!

[victormonteiro]

This song never gets old. Old school forever!😎

[lamontsg]

Massive synths and crazy drums, these dudes were futuristic way back then, and they rap better than many emcees today!! wtf

[sheltondixon]

This is real music right here
Shout to CAMEO!
It will never die

[theresavaldez]

Takes me back way back great memories saw these guys in concert. Thank you Cameo for sharing such great talent. They don't make music like this anymore. 🎵🎶🎷🎸🎹🎤🥁🎺

Cameo® remains the epitome of the original funk bands. Long after the primal heyday of the 70's, when other bands like The Bar-Kays, Lakeside and Confunkshun we're putting up their band equipment, Larry Blackmon and company kept funk train rolling along on the tracks with hits like "Word Up", "Back and Forth", "Candy" and "Skin I'm In". Cameo® will forever be the band that anyone with a grain of salt will bring up in conversation as one of the greatest R&B bands of all time and "She's Strange" defines their position in history!
Enough said.

Oh I remember the days when this track hit the charge and blew my mind. Sitting by the radio to record it with a tape disc. It was my first encounter with these Funkmasters deluxe and I've had cameosis ever since! 1984 baby. This remains one of the tracks to be forever on my playlist. Going to see them again in 2018 in Amsterdam. The knights of the soundtable will be remembered!

[derricklewis]

I grew up on this song. And it Still Bumps. That guitar is Sick

[apprentessjgooden]

I was 8 years old in 1984, Olympics in Los Angeles, the Raiders winning the Super Bowl, i remember everything, all the older acts from the 70s resurfaced one more time and gave us the best music ever, Marvin Gaye ☝🏾

[LoudSoul]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️ONE OF THE GREATEST R&B FUNK SONGS OF ALL TIME. TIMELESS CLASSIC. THEY NEED A CAMEO UNSUNG. THANK YOU CAMEO

[selormselorm]

Always reminds me of my dad…. Damn the good old days 🙌🏾
