Chords for Jermaine Stewart - Live & RARE(US TV Pt. 1)early '88

_ _ _ Bill, Jermaine Stewart.
Thank you, Roger.
It's a real pleasure to be here.
I'm a big, big fan of your shows.
Matter of fact, I, uh, I have a shrine to you.
And I watch you.
_ Jermaine Stewart is here in studio.
Oh, you schmooze-meister.
This is his new, there goes all the paper.
That is his new album right here.
And, uh, check this out, man.
What is this?
Is this like a cap or is this like one of those shower cap things?
No, it's just a cap.
It's just a cap?
Yeah.
Now, are you like doing that new Eddie Murphy kind of thing?
Like he had that leather cap.
He had a leather cap, he had a hat on.
Right, right.
It was like a little cap that sort of like pulls the hair back so people could,
because everyone used to always complain, Jermaine, pull your hair back.
So I pulled it back this time and you can see my face.
See, that's the look.
You have this whole look thing.
You know what I mean?
That look thing.
The hair, I mean, is that your natural hair?
This is it.
It's all mine.
No way, really?
Yeah, pull it.
Pull it.
You can see.
See?
Making me pull his hair.
Pull the hair, man.
Look at this.
Look at this.
It's made in Japan.
It says it right there.
It's not made in Japan.
It says it right there. No way. Yuki Tofugo.
No way.
This is hair.
_ _ Homegrown.
Homegrown.
Okay, now you have it straightened, I guess.
Is that right?
Yeah, just relaxed.
You have it relaxed.
You relax.
What do you do, poetry do it?
What do you do?
No.
_ What?
When you relax your hair, it sort of like relaxes all the little knotty bits.
Knotty bits or naughty bits?
Naughty.
Like naughty, like in a knot. Oh, naughty.
Naughty.
Naughty, yes.
Like your hair.
If you relax your hair.
I'd look like a doofus.
Now, _ _ you of course have the major monster hit, We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off to Have a Good Time.
And this is your third album, and your albums all have been like major chartbusters, huh? _
Fingers crossed.
But this one, this one, you want how many hits on this one?
I want at least nine.
Nine hits.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
And the first single is Say It Again, which we're going to show the video from in just a couple of minutes here.
But you also on this album work with your best friend Jody Wally.
That's right.
For the first time.
Because we never had a chance to work together.
And of course we know we worked together with Shalamar, but that was years ago since we've both been solo artists.
It gave us a chance to really get to writing together and to work with Andre Simone along with us.
Yeah.
It was real great.
Now that's real cool.
Now you all, you started at Shalamar together.
Right.
And then that was all out of England too, wasn't it? Right.
And now all of a sudden you're both big stars.
You both look at each other and go, I don't believe it.
Yeah.
Have you talked about it?
We don't talk about it as much.
We have other things to talk about.
Like what?
We were talking about_ Relaxing hair?
No, we talk about that.
We talk about the stories, all of that.
Well, I want to hear all this stuff.
The soaps.
That's right.
Ladies and gentlemen, my special guest star, Roger Rose here.
I'm, of course, Jermaine Stewart.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Get ready for the hottest tour of the [G] summer. _ _ _

I'm Jermaine Stewart and I hope you enjoy that video because I enjoyed making it and I love VH1 and _ hey_
What a kiss I found on this.
Now wait a minute.
_ Jermaine Stewart right here on VH1 Video Hits One.
Now you, you have your own special style of videos because I look at all your videos and there's_
I don't know how to explain it.
You have to explain this to me.
It's a Panavision kind of look, isn't it, or something.
Is that right?
Yeah, exactly.
And that comes from me watching all the 20th Century Fox movies. Yeah?
Now I used to have it like_
Right, everything's like_
Going to your TV trying to fix it in the vertical controller.
But, you know, on this video, the Say It Again video, we did it the opposite way.
Long.
Long, elongated.
Whereas, we don't have to.
It's like_
Yeah, but all your videos have that kind of, that own special style.
So that's your idea.
That's my idea.
I created that.
Now we talked_
You did.
Yeah.
He's his own_
Cecil B.
Jermaine.
Okay, anyway.
_ Now you_
The girl in this video we just saw here.
We were talking about_
You and Jody Wiley talk about soaps.
But there's an old soap opera behind that, too.
Because, I mean, this girl's underage, isn't she?
_ She_
I didn't know that.
Uh-huh.
Sure.
I mean, they brought this girl to the set.
I mean, they said, Jermaine, we got the girl, the leading lady for you.
Because I was in_
We did.
We shot this video.
You're stumbling over your words, Jermaine.
No, this is the truth.
You are stumbling over your words.
We shot the video in London, right?
Uh-huh.
And I left it up to the director to choose the girl.
Uh-huh.
And they put_
Come on now.
And they brought the girl to me.
And they said_
I asked her, how old are you?
She said, 16.
I thought, oh. _ _
Great.
You know, she couldn't speak no English.
She's French.
I see.
But the French works early.
They start working like 13 years old.
Working in what capacity?
Working in_
Sorry, I'm sorry.
Working a normal nine to five job.
So why did you shoot the video in your hotel room?
I'm sorry.
I'm being terrible.
But she didn't speak English, did she?
No.
And you were working all these things with her?
Right.
It was great.
I had to teach her how to say, say it again.
How to say it again, that I love you.
She said, please say it one more time.
It was great working with her.
Really?
Yeah.
Now, you have created all this, all your look.
Let's go back to that, the look and the hair and all that kind of stuff.
And the video image.
What is the image?
What's the thing?
I mean, you're from Chicago, right?
Yeah.
Well, the Chicago image is a beer gut and a belt.
No way.
I'm from Chicago.
Al Capone had a tough hat on and he had a suit and tie, man.
Come on.
Okay.
So what's the image then?
Well, the image, I think, I try to promote class.
I try to be classy at whatever I do.
I want to, _ because you don't see a lot of entertainers these days that dress nice, nicely dressed.
Yeah.
And I consider myself one of the most best dressed men, hopefully in 88.
You know?
Right.
But_
Can we show the spats?
Of course.
Which camera?
We got a camera over here.
Okay.
Look at this.
Look at these spats, man.
Check these puppies out.
Very happy.
Very nice.
It's a good look for you.
Yeah, you like it?
Ski pants and spats.
That's right.
It's a wild evening.
JS style.
This man, an underage girl and ski pants and spats.
I don't know.
I don't even want to talk about it.
Okay.
Wait a minute.
Let me finish saying the style.
We got to take a break.
You got to tell me about this in a minute.
All right.
Okay.
But you know what?
You want to talk style now?
We're going to talk Katherine Kinley.
You know Katherine, right?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, please.
Oh, my God.
My heart's about to blow.
[E] I know. _
It's love. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _

Ladies and gentlemen, we are having too much fun here.
Here he is.
Here is the legend, Jermaine Stewart, his new album.
And, of course, he is here in the studio with us.
We're talking [N] about style.
And this man is style.
Although, I swear to you, this cap thing, this cap thing, I don't know.
It could be a new Eddie Murphy look.
No, not Eddie Murphy.
Jermaine Stewart is a cap.
Eddie Murphy wore a hat.
I see.
Excuse me.
Now, we were talking style.
You were saying what the reason is of your look.
Right.
All that, the videos.
I try to promote class, you know, again.
And I try to change.
Every time you see Jermaine Stewart, Jermaine Stewart is going to look different.
Yeah.
Whether it's the hair, whether it's the clothes, I'm always be versatile enough to change the image a little bit.
You know, because people get tired.
I get tired of seeing a boy in all his clothes, all beard, all beard, same old suit on, you know.
But I like to have a nice style, nice classy thing.
You know, sometimes trendy, but classy and stylish as well.
Now, would you classify your music as dance music?
_ No.
What would you classify it as?
Classify it as a good _ stylized _ _ dance pop orientated R&B music.
Well, the reason I ask is you live in London.
You lived in Chicago, which is your hometown.
Right.
And so, do you think you got a lot of your influences from both or just one of them?
I think it's a mixture of
