    Super and great upbeat dance music video!

    In the summer of 1989 "Cold Hearted" was a top hit from the hot Paula Abdul, the song played everywhere all over the radio. As it was upbeat and had the move and feel of a great dance song. And the music video played all over "MTV" and even "VH1". It goes along well with the song as music moguls enter a building to view a dance practice and Paula a group of guys light it up, around the metal building as it puts the businessmen in a stunning and surprised mood! The moves and dance from Abdul is fantastic so good and cool plus as always Paula is very sexy as in this video clip she sports a see thru spandex top and you can see her sexy black bra. Overall highly memorable late 80's music video from a very popular dance song.
