Body Rock is a 1984 film directed by Marcelo Epstein about a young man "from the streets" with a talent for break-dancing. It stars Lorenzo Lamas in the lead role of 'Chilly'. The film featured music by Laura Branigan. The theme was sung by Maria Vidal, which peaked at #48 on the Hot 100, #8 on the US dance charts, and #11 in the UK.
Lamas was nominated for Worst Actor at the Golden Raspberry Awards for his performance. He also performed the track "Fools Like Me" which became his only single to date to crack the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
In his book The Official Razzie Movie Guide, John J. B. Wilson, founder of the Golden Raspberry Awards, listed the film as one of The 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made.
Maria Vidal (born Maria Elena Fernandez-Vidal 1 August 1956) is an American singer-songwriter, who had one hit single with the song "Body Rock" (#48 on the Hot 100) (the theme song to the film Body Rock) in 1984; it also reached #8 on the US dance charts, #5 in South Africa and #11 in the UK.
Vidal, a native of Miami, was originally a member of the band Desmond Child & Rouge but went solo with a self-titled debut album recorded in 1987. The album included the single "Do Me Right" written by ex-bandmate Desmond Child.
Vidal contributed backup vocals to Kiss' Paul Stanley's 1978 solo album, The Smithereens' 1989 single "A Girl Like You" and Stevie Nicks' 1985 single "I Can't Wait".
She also appeared in the 1985 horror comedy film, Once Bitten, as a member of a high school band and contributed two songs to the soundtrack.
Vidal wrote and featured in a song for Tupac Shakur. Vidal also wrote "Every Time it Rains" for Ace of Base and "In the Grand Canyon" for Reggaeton artist James Joseph. In 1989, she wrote the Belinda Carlisle hit "Summer Rain", which was covered in 2004 by Slinkee Minx. In 2008 she released the song "Green", written for an international festival at the American School in London, and made available for purchase as an MP3 on her website. In May 2009 Maria Vidal announced the release of her new album Living in Radical Radiance. The album can be downloaded on her website or ordered through the website shop.
