Still a Thrill Still a Thrill "Still a Thrill" is the second single from singer Jody Watley's self-titled debut album. While the #56 (US) peaking "Still a Thrill" didn't necessarily match the pop chart success of its blockbuster predecessor, "Looking for a New Love", it was, however, a major hit on both the R&B and dance charts in 1987.

Indie Neo-soulsters, Soulscream, covered "Still a Thrill" on their 2001 album, "Prototype @lpha1 2001 Neophunk". Synth-pop artist, Matthew Duffy,
