After the success of "Straight Up", Virgin Records quickly released another single to satisfy the public's newfound interest in Paula Abdul. It became the second #1 from her debut album, which would eventually yield a record of four #1 singles.
The song is about loyalty in a relationship. The female vocalist proclaims that, despite rumors that others may be interested in her, none of those matter because she will remain faithful to the man she loves; she will remain "forever his girl." The single version differs slightly from the album version, as it uses more of the background male vocal and denser instrumentation.
"Forever Your Girl" spent two weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1989, and charted at #24 in the UK and #17 in Germany.
The video was directed by David Fincher, and featured Abdul acting as a choreographer and director of a children's performance (a 6-year-old Trevor Wright, 8-year-old Elijah Wood and 10-year-old Nikki Cox were among them). The "Forever Your Girl" video spent two weeks at number one on MTV's video rotation and helped establish Abdul as a leading visual entertainer.
The video also satirized Robert Palmer videos, having three little girls dressed like the three women who play backup guitars in his videos (black dresses, red lipstick, white makeup, and hair tied in buns).
