Beverly Hills 90210/Song

Question
Hello! Can you tell me the song that plays at beach apartment when Donna and David are installing the stereo the day they moved out? Thanks soooooooo much!

Answer
Hi Renata,

This is actually a song I've been asked about before and would like to know myself, but I can't seem to identify it.  It plays once at the end of "The Girl from New York City", S4, in the scene you describe, and again during "Bleeding Hearts", the Valentine's Day episode of S6 (at the AfterDark).  In the later episode, we get further into the song and can hear some lyrics.  This is what I could make out:

She's the hotty with the booty
So misleadin'(?), she's a hip-hop cutie/cupid
I take/dig a look for some red hot smoochin'
'Yo, are you sexin'?' is the ultimate question
I plug(?) a spark
like a fever(?) needs a catcher
She's all that
(Yeah, you know me)
It's the L to the I, S, A and [...]

It makes you feel so good [...]

I hope this helps some.  I've searched various sections of the lyrics, checked episode guides, and browsed through iTunes before, but have yet to find a match.  I wouldn't be surprised if this early 90's hip-hop dance tune had "Lisa" in it's title due to the final portion of the lyrics above.

Thanks for the question!

All the best,

Mel

Can Dylan solve quadratic equations? What makes up a "mega-burger"? If an answer exists, I probably know it. Whether your question is general, begging the context of all 10 seasons, or completely inane, feel free to drop me a line either way. I will provide episode reference numbers for each response and plan to have some fun with this. Trivia quizzes often need correction, and publications will get their plotlines/characters/relationships mixed up too. I accept dialogue/scene requests, but please limit your inquiry to 1-2 per question. I only know music from the original broadcasts/reruns, not the DVDs. Been a fan since 1990 and didn't miss a beat.

Experience

Well, I began watching "Beverly Hills, 90210" at the tender age of 9 and a half, during its original run. By 11, I was a huge fan; 13, obsessed; 14, growing bitter. I don't like S6 - S10 as much as Seasons 1 - 5. But, technically, I still watch all of them in some way. Do this for 20 years and you'll remember the darndest things.

Education/Credentials
I'd like to say I've earned a "degree" on the life and times of the original eight, with specific concentration on Seasons 1 thru 5, any Jack McKay drama, Dylan/Kelly together or apart, and the guest stars of 1992-1994. Season 4, I think, was the best and strikingly different from any other. My only weakness might be later-season 'stand-in' characters like Matt and Noah, and the ever-changing ownerships of The AfterDark.
