"School DaZE" BY Spike Lee "Be Alone Tonight" Produced, Music and Lyrics by Raymond Jones Performeds by Jane = Tisha Campbell Dina = Jasmine Guy Miriam = Paula Brown Valda = Angela Ali
I was from that Era. I was 19 years of aged when this Movie was released in 1988. However I would have loved to have experienced the 1970s during my Teenager Lady Years. The 80s were a great Era too and I'll never forget the 80s Decade. I wished that we had a Time Machine🙋🏾♀️
@m.layfette6249 Jasmine doing the choreography? That's awesome. Knowing that era, I would've thought that either Debbie Allen or Paula Abdul would've done the choreography.
So many new age kids will never know and understand the beauty and lesson of this ENTIRE movie!!! We need more spike lee movies!!! This got so played out on my VHS as a kid!!! My favorite movie!!
Tiffanie , yes it does make you wonder if people actually recognized and understood the concept and message of the movie. Hopefully people actually did.
I always said whoever did the choreography for this scene knew their stuff! I still enjoy this just as much as I did many years ago when I first saw it. All were great and Tisha OWNED those steps and song!
A little known fact but everybody who's watching this video probably knows this already but this song and this video became a legitimate music video so technically this is the very first time both Jasmine Guy and Tisha Campbell we're on the R&B charts before their solo projects.
I remember their being a huge issue over this with Spike Lee and Tisha Campbell. I don't remember the specifics & don't want to speculate. I remember it being my introduction to the fact that you cann sing a whole song & it not be yours in any fashion or form.
Yes and she was in little shop of horrors and rags to riches. Idk why she didn't do broadway but I guess we would have never had her in martin if she did🙅♀
They talk about her now, but she has always been a favorite of mine. Still IS! What a voice. What a dancer. What an actress. What a STAR! RESPECT HER!! 💪🏽🤞🏽💪🏽
I think it's fair to say that this musical number could now be considered a black film classic. I've seen it many times and it never grows old. African-American "diva-ness" at its FINEST!! Thank you Tisha, Jasmine, Paula and Angela for WORKIN' IT!! :-)
I was Just telling my sister--them stairs do not look fun. I have watched this a billion times and every time the stairs make me nervous. And they use the stairs like three times during the routine--and in my head I'm screaming Stop! lol. They killed it though. And I understand ya'll had to come down but you go back up them not once but twice. Whew. No. They're just so small and narrow looking--and the ladies are in heels and tight dresses. I mean--not even counting how beautiful they all look--but 10s across the board just for balance, gravity and accuracy.
@@killah_disciple1 thank you! So many people talking like "oh, I wish they would bring back these days!" I'm like, "Um...the other number in this movie was called "doin' da butt". This was at a time when 2-live-crew came out with "Get it Girl" and SaltNPeppa was telling girls to "Push it". Just saying, this scene was a fantasy.
Jasmine definitely did her thing. She's just a great performer. Tisha killed it tho. She was sexy and her voice is just flawless. She was right for the part
Spike Lee once said, he made a mistake by placing 4 girls in this scene & that he wanted have 3 girls up there to make them appear more like the Supremes but I always believed that En Vogue was influenced by this scene.
I agree with you. I still sometimes come back to this scene just to reminisce of my (high) School Daze. It's one of my favorite scenes & songs in the movie along with Keith John's "I Can Only Be Me" & Pieces of a Dream's "We've Already Said Goodbye".
Two of the guys from Club Nouveau, Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy, wanted to put together a girl group like the Supreme's, but where everyone could sing lead. Terry Ellis' flight was delayed from Houston to California the day they all tried out. The auditions were pretty much over by the time she got there, but they still let her try out on principle. After hearing how she sounded with Cindy Herron, Dawn Robinson, and Maxine Jones, they didn't want to cut her. That's why there were four members of En Vogue. It had nothing to do with this scene.
The way these beautiful ladies move all around and up & down those stairs while singing in long tight dresses and high heels just amazes me every time I see this performance. BRAVO! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Well done!👍🏾💯
One of my fav musical scenes of the film along with the late great Phyllis Hyman. Jasmine Guy and Kadeem Hardison being in this movie was great and Lawrence Fishburne played the role brilliantly.
This was the best choreographed female performance that I’ve ever seen in my LIFE! All the girls were in formation and on point. When the counts changed, so did they and it was a full out performance from beginning to end. Tisha Campbell did this and Jasmine and the other girls had her back!
Lol I also use too play out some of the scenes to this movie as well, lol I had to have been about 7 or 8 and I remember me playing as someone at a club, and my sisters friends which were our neighbors were singing and dancing around me while I was sitting on a chair, lol and they started pulling down their pants and things lol lol and then at the time we were all in a room, so while they were doing there little routine my older cousin suddenly bursts through the door LOL yeah then they had to go home lol but even my older cousins at the time even laughed it of
@BruhTV I agree something happened between the 90s and 2000s and it's not just them there's alot of celebrities from that time that look completely different now.
This is by far my favorite musical scene in this movie. I fell in love with Jasmine Guy the moment she hit the screen in this musical number. Tisha Campbell's vocals were on point and perfect for this song. This girl group was gorgeous and choreography was amazing 😍
00:20-00:35 Gott damn!! Can we talk about how on point they were with the choreography!?! The entire routine was slammin. Goodness, I appreciate their precision so much more now than I did back then. 3 years later We got EnVogue!! You can’t tell me that this scene was not one of the things that inspired them to form that group. Groundbreaking stuff.
I'm proud to say that I was in college when this came out!!!! The MOST CLASSIC FILM EVER!! You had to be in this era to get everything in the 🍿 movie!! Spike did his thing on this one!! ❤❤
I was a 19 years of aged younger lady when School Daze were on Film in 1988. I also loved the Movie and you are right there will never be another Decade of the 1980s. Or the 1970s I would have preferred to have been in my Teenager years,during the 1970s. We had more Melanin Self Love in our Communities,during that 70s Decade🙋🏾♀️
These kids will lose their mind if they were back in the seventies and eighties and even the early' 90s, without technology these kids wouldn't be able to adapt because they used to things doing things for them like their brain LOL
I have the brilliant Spike Lee's masterpiece in my bedroom drawer..... DVD .... Yes I love old school technology..... This clip showed Tisha Campbell & Jasmine Guy in their splendor..... Our culture is phenomenal!!!! I'm proud of our Queens & Kings ..... We are sure talented beyond comprehension..... The racist elitist loathes us because truthfully they want to be ???? US !!!! Stay Black .... Stay STRONG!!! ✌🏾🖤✊🏾
Some will never understand the HBCU Homecoming experience was EXACTLY LIKE THIS!!! No one can ever convince me there was anything better than the Coronation or Game Day!!!! Nothing like it!! #HBCU4Life
Outside of how much I adore this song, one thing still gets me. The fact that these women made it down those stairs in heels and long dresses without tripping amazes me.
@@missyginn2808 These females are all light bright just like all the gamma rays except for the token in the audience and I know what bw look like, I am one.
Written and produced by the late Raymond Jones, former keyboardist for CHIC. Raymond also wrote and produced "We've Already Said Goodbye (Before We Said Hello)", the song that plays over the end credits.
Ahhhhhh man that clip of the movie always got me when I was a shortie. The way they moved in those dresses was super sexy then and still is now! 😳🤣🤣DAMN
Ruth Carter was the designer for Schhol Daze and all of Spike Lee's other films. She went on to becone the first and only black person to win 2 academy awards for Black Panther 1 and 2.
3BuckHead This performance reminded me of Beyonce for some reason. I didn't know Tisha had pipes like that. She also has an album out which I also didn't know.
Yeah, she released in it the early 90"s. She also did a song with Pam from Martin. It's a remake of "Don't Ask My Neighbor". They both KILLED it. U should check it out.
Awesome artistry at its best. Singing, dancing and pageantry. This woman are absolutely gorgeous. Tischa, Jazmine and I don't know the names of the other beauties. But I must admit Jasmine Guy is breathtaking !
Starting at the very beginning of their routine, starting from left to right the girls are as followed: 1). Angela Ali 2). Paula Brown 3). Tisha Campbell 4). Jasmine Guy These are the Gamma Rays...😉
I don't care what anyone says, this ENTIRE scene was EVERYTHING!!!❤❤❤
Agreed. And it didn't belong in that whole damn movie next to "doin' da butt".
Everything! 🔥
Those of us who grew up in this era, never forget it!
Never will
Never will forget
I was from that Era. I was 19 years of aged when this Movie was released in 1988. However I would have loved to have experienced the 1970s during my Teenager Lady Years. The 80s were a great Era too and I'll never forget the 80s Decade. I wished that we had a Time Machine🙋🏾♀️
Yes indeed! I remember during the summer of '88 when the r&b stations would play this in heavy rotation.
85! 🖤🖤🖤🥰
I don't care how old this song is , those women WORKED this song. CLASSIC!
Tisha Campbell and Jasmine Guy killed it.
WORD!!!!!!!
Fuck yea they did
Who are the other 2 women?
Kimberly Dill Paula Brown and Angela Ali.
Yeeeeeeessss...know this by heart😍😘
The choreography was so on point! Hats off to the choreographer!
Kudos to Jasmine Guy for the choreography.
Otis Sallid
Yasssss 🔥
Agree
@m.layfette6249 Jasmine doing the choreography? That's awesome. Knowing that era, I would've thought that either Debbie Allen or Paula Abdul would've done the choreography.
This should have been made into a Broadway musical 20 years ago. Hard to believe spike just thought of doing it last year. I hope he gets it done.
Agreed
Agree
Yes and Beyoncé playing Jane’s role ( but she would never because she think that’s beneath her ) 🤣
I could see Beyoncé recreating this.
@@suhaylamusna3524 Beyonce is too old to play Jane. Jane is a college student, Beyonce is in her 40s
Tisha Campbell is one of the most talented women of our era
But I will bet you everything we both own that she couldn’t get back into that dress though
@@yell0wberry😂😂😂😂😂
She is and Jasmine Guy was pretty good too.
Yes indeed!💥
@@yell0wberryand can't 😂😂😂
Such a great number! Tisha was only 18 years old when this was filmed! So much talent on that stage!! (and in that film!!)
Actually she was 17. She said in interviews she used her age to get out of doing a few of the more explicit things originally scripted.
And she was already a seasoned pro
Yes! Both her & Jasmine Guy could ACTUALLY SING!
@seensay2132 ok that's too young I didn't know that
AND???
I can watch this a million times. Never gets old
Tisha slayed in this performance. This is a timeless routine!
And Jasmine Guy🤔👸🏽🤙🏾🤟🏾🙌🏾☝🏾💯👸🏽
All four of those sisters did their thing.
So many new age kids will never know and understand the beauty and lesson of this ENTIRE movie!!! We need more spike lee movies!!! This got so played out on my VHS as a kid!!! My favorite movie!!
Tiffanie exactly and now that I attend an HBCU I appreciate and love this movie so much more
Tiffanie , yes it does make you wonder if people actually recognized and understood the concept and message of the movie. Hopefully people actually did.
I gotta it and it inspired me to go to a HBCU
It’s not our fault that we wasn’t showed this 🤷🏽♀️
@@mial499 I had my kids watched this movie & other movies from back in the day. Plus we had a decision about it.
Best scene of the whole movie. 2023 and it's still captivating
ONLY good scene of the movie.
Yes, still captivating. And still a movie that speaks to black youth if they are going to college.
One of my favorite scenes in the movie.
Angela Grant mines too 😁
The scene on here is phenomenal and amazing a look at Jasmine guy and Tisha Campbell powerful performance and beautiful song 😘
same. always loved this track
A scene that brings back memories 😘
Me too
was I the only one who always thought the other girl's dresses were better than Tisha's dress??
MissB2483 I thought the same thing.
Same!
OMG I have always thought that!!
I was just thinking that
No!
No auto-tune btw. Just amazing talent.
It was lip synched
I always said whoever did the choreography for this scene knew their stuff! I still enjoy this just as much as I did many years ago when I first saw it. All were great and Tisha OWNED those steps and song!
+Jersey Finest This is great choreography.
Absolutely 100% correct!!!
These dance steps are phenomenal!!!
I wouldn't be surprised if it was Debbie Allen
krlm2280 i just said the samething...also Jasmine Guy was a dancer as well...so i wouldnt be surprised if both of them choreographed these dance moves
Patience Ks exactly! Miss
A little known fact but everybody who's watching this video probably knows this already but this song and this video became a legitimate music video so technically this is the very first time both Jasmine Guy and Tisha Campbell we're on the R&B charts before their solo projects.
played at gay clubs! 'nuff said.

True!
Shout out to Brandford Marsalis for his sax playing on this tune. Love it! ❤
He parlayed the heck out of that sax. Now I gotta look him up
I didn't know that!
@@SholomonSun1342don't have to look far, he played in the movie as well
That opening is everything....
He plays the Saxophone also?
80's WEAVE is POPPIN!!!!
Yasss, hun!
And lots of it too...lol
You should wear your hair like that sometimes. Honey blonde
I like that big hair..
🤣🤣🤣🤣 okay!
What a talent Tisha Campbell was! Those dresses fit like a glove🥳🥳🥳🥳
Yes and she was in little shop of horrors and rags to riches. Idk why she didn't do broadway but I guess we would have never had her in martin if she did🙅♀
They talk about her now, but she has always been a favorite of mine. Still IS! What a voice. What a dancer. What an actress. What a STAR! RESPECT HER!! 💪🏽🤞🏽💪🏽
They need Beyonce
Agree! Spike Lee was SO ahead of his time.
I think it's fair to say that this musical number could now be considered a black film classic. I've seen it many times and it never grows old. African-American "diva-ness" at its FINEST!! Thank you Tisha, Jasmine, Paula and Angela for WORKIN' IT!! :-)
This could constitute as the second Dreamgirls
@@SaturdayMorno86
In my opinion this performance rates
Number 1
👍👏👍👏
Agreed!
The ending of that performance was absolutely flawless, long live the 80s for ever 89...
How they walked down the stairs, Tisha being so close to the edge, and not looking down once, IN HEELS!...Truly amazing!! 😃👍
Well, it's not live. She probably did it wrong a few times. Lol
That part!
Out of an entire video oozing sexy, that may be the sexiest part 😎

There is no telling how many time Spike had them re-do or rehearse.
Anyone still watching this in 2019?!?
Wht not watch it in 2019 2020 or 2119? The sh×t is entertaining.

Yes indeed so glad I found this I love the dance routine💃

MAJOR SHOUT OUT THE CHOREOGRAPHER AND THE SONG, CUZ I KNOW THE ENTIRE SCENE BY HEART.
Jasmine Guy choreographed that.
A Mobley oh that makes sense. The woman is multi talented.
A Mobley
Tisha said a man choreographed this, but his name escapes me. She said it on the dvd commentary.
@@CodyCole80 I was gonna say a man probably did the choreography😊
Ditto but I'd love2C .......a remake! Yeah I said it!
This production number actually stole the movie. I could watch it over and over again. Classy and well-choreographed those young ladies put it down
Yep..I totally agree
I watched this routine so many times trying to live out my girl group fantasy, it was just stupid. If only I could sing…😂
Yep! I wonder who choreographed it?
@@LOGICAL-JAY Here, here.
@@nicoledillon3909 Otis Sallad music by Spikes Dad Bill Lee
Loved the choreography, the dresses, the music, , the passion of the 80’s, and most of all Tisha!!! So much power and talent in this woman.
Everything about this performance still gives me chills. Too bad girl groups like this don't exist anymore.
They didn't exist when this came out. It was an outdated performance.

It's funny you say that because both Tisha Campbell & Dawn Robinson have the same singing voice ....most likely same talking voice too.
Yep
This was always one of my favorite scenes, Tisha was sanging, and her body was sick! The performance reminds me of En Vogue when they first came out!
Tisha was WEARING THAT DRESS 😍😍😍

Spike Lee never got due for music in his movies. Underrated! His soundtracks are ''AWESOME''...........See you soon Atlanta!
One of my fav musical scenes of the film along with the late great Phyllis Hyman. Jasmine Guy and Kadeem Hardison being in this movie was great and Lawrence Fishburne played the role brilliantly.
YES...RIP my friend, Phyllis Hyman!!

I mean.......from the time the lights came up & they were just standing there silhouetted, not even moving........just badass from start to finish😎
They ran so En Vogue could walk 😉

Exactly
So is Beyonce. At least Tisha can sing!

Best scene of the movie.
This iconic movie was pre-Gina and pre-Whitley.
Thank you Spike for the many classic movies ... this right here had a Street dude wanting to go to college
oh me and my sister's would do this routine like we were in the movie. we used our dad's socks as gloves lol the memories
me too :) me and my older sister n her friends would play this scene as kids
🤣
Vincent Hoskins: LOL! The good ole days “used our dad’s socks” classic. Who needs toys with that kind of imagination! Thanks for sharing🙂
Lol I also use too play out some of the scenes to this movie as well, lol I had to have been about 7 or 8 and I remember me playing as someone at a club, and my sisters friends which were our neighbors were singing and dancing around me while I was sitting on a chair, lol and they started pulling down their pants and things lol lol and then at the time we were all in a room, so while they were doing there little routine my older cousin suddenly bursts through the door LOL yeah then they had to go home lol but even my older cousins at the time even laughed it of
School Daze had one of the best Soundtracks in movie history.
Word, it was like a historical musical journey of black musical expression!!!
Nobody will ever be as smooooth as Tisha was with this insane choreography.
Never gets old!!!
jasmine is fine, but tisha commands attention.
Girl can sing.......
ALL of them are serving looks and giving life. Give credit to all 4 of them please! Stop playing.
@Naiella Maybe because they're the most recognizable out of the bunch.
@Naiella
Exactly because the two other ", nobodies " in the scene are prettier than both of them..
@BruhTV I agree something happened between the 90s and 2000s and it's not just them there's alot of celebrities from that time that look completely different now.
This is by far my favorite musical scene in this movie. I fell in love with Jasmine Guy the moment she hit the screen in this musical number. Tisha Campbell's vocals were on point and perfect for this song. This girl group was gorgeous and choreography was amazing 😍
00:20-00:35
Gott damn!!
Can we talk about how on point they were with the choreography!?!
The entire routine was slammin.
Goodness, I appreciate their precision so much more now than I did back then.
3 years later
We got EnVogue!!
You can’t tell me that this scene was not one of the things that inspired them to form that group.
Groundbreaking stuff.
Wow who remembers when Tisha and Pam was on little shop of horror. That was their first movie together singing in a group.
Jasmine Guy is one of the most underrated hot chicks in the history of planet Earth...
Totally agree 😍😍😍
AND, she was an amazing professional Dancer, as well as Singer. She and TIsha could both do it all-
I remember this song and movie
She doesn't miss a move or a note one of the most talented and deserving of the working girls. perfection
All of the Ladies were so good 👍 But Tisha Campbell is my girl and she always been Fabulous 😍 This Movie is a Classic 🤗
While White Generation-X was in 'grunge', we were watching Spike Lee movies and loving the music, dancing, and message.
Ok…I’m black and I love grunge music. Grunge vocalist can sing their faces off! We are not all the same. I love all music

Geron Jenkins Great comparison, this is sooooo Beyoncé in her DC4 days. Beyoncé, Kelly, LeToya & LaTavia.
3BuckHead This performance reminded me of Beyonce for some reason. I didn't know Tisha had pipes like that. She also has an album out which I also didn't know.
Yeah, she released in it the early 90"s. She also did a song with Pam from Martin. It's a remake of "Don't Ask My Neighbor". They both KILLED it. U should check it out.
Geron Jenkins I was thinking of the exact same thing! LOL!
+Geron Jenkins Ummmmm no way.
Tisha Campbell's and Jasmine Guy's phenomenal talents on display here.
Spike's a genius! This video was so ahead of it's time...lush visuals, awesome tracks! 100%
Girl you can't help but to watch Tisha and Jasmine! At 0.44-0.55 sec jasmine shines when she made that turn and "always feeding me lies!"!!!!
"Oh, my God . . . "
Awesome artistry at its best. Singing, dancing and pageantry. This woman are absolutely gorgeous. Tischa, Jazmine and I don't know the names of the other beauties. But I must admit Jasmine Guy is breathtaking !
Starting at the very beginning of their routine, starting from left to right the girls are as followed:
1). Angela Ali
2). Paula Brown
3). Tisha Campbell
4). Jasmine Guy
