Irene Cara's, "What A Feeling (Flashdance)"
  1. Babes? She is hot! That woman is hot! Or used to be...
  2. Poofy Hair? When she is dancing at that strip place.
  3. Torn Clothing? She tears them of while dancing!
  4. Cheesy Keyboards? If this song doesn't have any keyboards than what song does?!
  5. At Least One Change of Clothing? Many many changes of clothing.
  6. Stage Effects? Nothing particular...The usual...
  7. Wild Instrumental solo? We could say that when dancing in front of the judges, she is performing a "dance solo".
  8. Storyline? It's a soundtrack! It couldn't display the whole story of the movie!
  9. Cool Automobile? Hehe! See that Porsche the guy she kisses comes with? Well, I think a Porsche is pretty cool... :P
  10. Sunglasses? The thing she is wearing in the beginning can be seen as "Sun Glasses". They could protect you from the sun's radiation!
