    pass this inspirational performance on, we need this now more than ever!!
    Welcome! These musical clips are from a large video collection that is now being converted from VHS/Beta to digital. There is some viewing quality loss from the original video source due to the age of the tapes, but the performances are preserved and still a joy to view. I'm finding many lost performances from vintage R&B, Soul, Pop, Broadway, Cabaret and other performances. This channel will be the Ed Sullivan channel for the digital generation, something for everyone to enjoy. Many of the performances will be seen for the first time since they were originally televised. I will be adding many musical performances from a variety of sources that I hope you will enjoy. Please hit the like button if you can.

      @@tonyaingram7709 She fought her record company and they then torpedoed her career....I love this version. I'd love to hear Irene Cara do an album of standards, similar to what she did in City Heat because she sure has the voice, range and power...and she was one of the FIRST women to fight against the system and paid dearly for it, yet paved the way for many

    Ms Irene Cara your grace as a young actress was so wonderful
    What I remember most was when Michael Jackson had won so many Grammys's he pause & kissed you! I had hopes that he would have called you. I can help but feel that had did, his life would have been happier. I believe deep in my heart; that with you in his life he would have found contentment. In fact would still have been alive. Im 69 now! But i love seeing you in movies My favorite was with you & Stixs (Phillip Michael Thomas).

      Same here. I'm 45 and love Irene Cara in Sparkle and Fame. Her songs were inspirational, warm, and relatable. Pop music will never ever get another gift like Irene Cara. As Western Civilization is being torn apart from within, later generations aren't even being encouraged to aspire to Irene Cara's level of artistry.

    Dios es un concepto humano sobre lo que nos incluye. Sabemos que no hay un centro de control en lugar alguno. Es un Tod@ que funciona con nosotros y tenemos albedrío. La espiritualidad es universal y la religión una decisión personal y oficial de fe que varía según las culturas. Los andinos pensamos que todos los seres somos partes de Dios Tod@ y por ende merecedores de respeto y correspondencia. #Ortotaxia #Fu8mIreneCara 10184
