Vitamin C - Graduation (Friends Forever)

[Pipo]

she sounds like Paula Abdul with some Robyn added.

Song-wise, being 'Enya wannabe', I thought As Long As You're Loving Me being like On My Way Home ad-libbed [...] but C's (the remix version for the video) lesser production than both.

I later realised As Long As You're Loving Me (the music video version) is a remix, which is a bit longer and a slight downgrade from the actual version and the radio edit. From listening on Spotify I noticed they sound better. Those versions have the 80s percussion towards the end and pretty synth arpeggios that reminded me of Enya’s music, and On My Way Home in particular.
Similarly with Enya (although she chose the 4mins version for her music video) the album track is 5-mins long, okay but not as good. Enya released a shorter remix version in 1997, which is better.

Main point: there are 3 versions of both the Enya song On My Way Home, and the Vitamin C song As Long As You're Loving Me.

Spoiler: These (audio + music videos)

EP on Spotify

The longer remixes which aren't as good (but music video's nice )



The main track (+ music video for Enya )



SD here if the above is blocked

The shorter versions (radio edit/single remix)

The longer remixes didn't quite do justice to the songs, but otherwise they're decently produced and both quite sweet.

Have this clip too

(Main bit with Vitamin C ends around 3:38; highlight is her quote around 2mins)
What a crazy show

I prefer the Tuesday in June song haha, but this was fun to discover:

"is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said?"

This is a crime to not have VC in HD:



Can't she get some Netflix intern to do it for her?

Colleen's retrofit star bid as Vitamin C truly set ablaze on More.



Sadly no Japanese bonus track This Summer I on streaming. It was one of her very best.

I know she's busy okay-ing music for Netflix shows, but you'd think at the very least she'd leak out that touted Goldfrapp album she said would come out alongside a kids album I'm less desperate for.

I picked up More for about $5 back in the day. Don’t think I ever listened to it, but I swear they added on about four of her prior singles as a bonus including the (#13 smash in NZ) Smile, which was well pleasing.

The DISGRACEFUL comments I saw on X from a lot of Gen-zers; if only they knew Miss Vitamin Absorbic Acid is one of the big shots at Netflix

 

[disneyteletubby]

I'm a Gen Z; I admire how she progressed in the music industry one of the smartest there is. ♡

 

[K.C.]

I think she started off at Nickelodeon too.

 

[disneyteletubby]

Yeah (after her Vitamin C run) with the vice president role there

 

[disneyteletubby]

I have the first album on CD yet to play it, but I found this song recently and really like it

 

[disneyteletubby]

Also she covered this Volare song

I knew of that show but ironically I never had Disney Channel.

Edit: her sung Italian's decent! ️

 

[straightorbroken]

I swear it was the first time I ever heard the song. Definitive version obviously.
