I was 15 when the Talk To Me video came out. As a rabid fan we all had been waiting years for this album that was always delayed for release. However at the end of the video when Stevie purposely holds up her hand to showcase her neon, fingerless Madonna gloves I cringed. Stevie had jumped the shark to a pop star or at least her people tried to make that leap. I can almost hear the director say "ok, Stevie....hold up your hand now to show everyone how hip and cool you are. Show off that neon glove
It looks so unnatural and so staged that even at 15 I cringed. Inside my head I was yelling NO NO NO DONT DO THAT.

I think the beginning of the video was sort of a rip off from Gypsy and trying to rekindle that magic. That cheezy dancing of her and her brother is ridiculous. You can almost understand the frustration "lets just get this done."
