View Full Version : Company B
80sTrivia 1-15-02, 08:42 PM Was anyone else a fan of the freestyle trio Company B? Their biggest hit was the dance hall classic "Fascinated", which I still love to dance to. Another hit was "Full Circle", which is also an 80s dance anthem. I loved the video to "Fascinated", with all three of the ladies wearing blue tinsel wigs, tight mini-dresses and stilleto heels. I actually saw Company B perform with Expose at a nightclub back in '87, and they were hot!!! Who else enjoyed Company B???

80sTrivia 1-24-02, 06:03 AM Wow... nobody remembers Company B? Oh, well, I realize they were no where near as popular as Expose, but I would have thought someone would have remembered them...

Roemello 1-24-02, 08:21 AM I remembered 'em, but the only tune I ever played outta them was 'Facinated' or just mixed the beat with other tunes (don't wanna say sample...we know what that leads to....:lol: ) :p
80sTrivia 1-24-02, 08:35 AM Thanks, Roemy. It's good to know that someone else other than me remembers Company B!!! :)

I'm glad that you also remember Company B, Wonder Twin. They were one of a slew of all-girl freestyle acts to appear on the scene in the late-80s, but their sound (and looks) made them stand out from the crowd!!! :)

Dancingdoll1986 1-25-02, 11:37 AM Do I know them? I don't remember them at all.....heading to BearShare to find this now.......I must be slipping! UGH! (And I od have to admit, the first time I saw the title Company B, all I could think about was "The Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy From Company B"!!!!!)
I really am sad!!!:D
Westend Girl 1-25-02, 11:52 AM I remember Fascinated. It was one of those songs I could dance to all night. I love the high tempo and the voice singing it. Is that a typical freestyle song? If it is then I need to find more freestyle.
Roemello 1-25-02, 01:22 PM Actually Kira, most freestyle sounds even BETTER than that! :D I've always loved the females of freestyle the most...look for stuff from Sa-Fire, Lissette Melendez, Judy Torres, Cover Girls, Giggles and Sweet Sensation just for starters :cool:
Can't discredit the guys either...you may like that sound as well from the likes of Johnny O, Stevie B, Coro, TKA, etc.
All awesome dance music :)
80sTrivia 1-25-02, 02:20 PM I love Freestlye music!!! It was just so fun and danceable in the 80s. I don't think freestyle made a big splash in Europe but it was quite huge in the States in the late 80s!!! :cool:

Westend Girl 1-25-02, 02:26 PM Thank you for all the recommendations Roemello. I found some different compilations online that includes some of the artists you mentioned. I will let you know how much I like them when the cds arrive.
I remember Company B and "Fascinated." I think that is the only song I remember. :confused: It is a good song!
eaglewoodvigil 8-07-04, 01:41 AM Can anyone tell me what the full album length for the song "Fascinated" by Company B is? I just recently got a copy of that song and I want to find out if this copy I got is the original album version of the song or an edited version of it.
The length of the copy I have for this song is 3:39. I am wanting to find out if this is the album version of this song because for 2 years now I have been trading music with another person and both of us are trying to make 1980s music collections. We both only want the original album versions of the songs in our collections (not edit versions, extended versions, remixes, live, etc.). This is one song this guy needs for his collection and if this is the original album version of this song, then I will be able to give it to him.

I have the Radio edit version and it is 4:50 so 3:39 sounds awful short. Songs that are on Compilation CDs are usually shorter so I think you have a Compilation version.
whistledog 8-08-04, 11:34 AM Company B were cool I love Fascinted :thumb:
Yes, I remember Company B--and their song, Fascinated, which I recorded right off the radio in 2001 or 2002.
Canadian80s 8-10-04, 07:45 AM Again .... both songs (in my opinion Full Cirlce was a better song, but Facinated had a better remix) .... are essential for an 80's Dance CD.
cflash74 8-14-04, 10:20 AM Didn't they also do "Perfect Lover?" Cool pounding beat in that song if I remember correctly.
Hipechik70 8-14-04, 07:30 PM My favorite music of all time!! Just went to the FreeStyle concert last Sat and let me tell you I wanted to get the AQUA-NET out!! lmao
Oh Yeah Company B and Fascinated. That song came out late 1986 or early 1987. That is an awesome Dance/FreeStyle song. I used to dance to that song like crazy when it came out in the 80's. Oh the memories...
'come on, come on
I want to be with you
come on come on
I want to do, just what you want me to
I am facinated by your love boy...' ~ Something like that.
Tanya1976 11-12-04, 02:20 PM Of course, I remember this group and their hit "Fascinated". Great club song!
I'm fascinated by the way you make me feel!
