OLThe Pointer Sisters - Automatic [1984] - Paris, 1985
Wikipedia:
The group had its origins when sisters June and Bonnie Pointer began performing in clubs in 1969 as "Pointers Au Pair". The line-up grew to a trio when sister Anita joined them. Their record deal with Atlantic Records produced several unsuccessful singles. The trio grew to a quartet when sister Ruth joined in December 1972. They then signed with Blue Thumb Records, recorded their debut album and, with their new label, began seeing more success, winning a Grammy Award in 1975 for Best Country Vocal Performance for "Fairytale" (1974). Bonnie left the group in 1977 to commence a solo career with modest success.
The group achieved its greatest commercial success in the 1980s as a trio consisting of June, Ruth, and Anita. They won two more Grammys in 1984 for the top 10 hits "Automatic" and "Jump (For My Love)". The group's other U.S. top 10 hits are "Fire" (1979), "He's So Shy" (1980), "Slow Hand" (1981), the remixed version of "I'm So Excited" (1984), and "Neutron Dance" (1985).
According to Ruth Pointer, "Automatic" was the final song chosen for Breakout: "We were taking a break from recording in the office of Jim Tract, who was Richard Perry's right-hand man, and Jim mentioned that he had a stash of tapes we might want to listen to [while on] a breather...We all sat up straight when we first heard ['Automatic'] and told Richard we wanted to include it on the album. 'Okay,' he said 'But who would sing the low part?' 'Are you kidding me?' I said, 'I'll do the low part!'"
Although Break Out largely comprised dance tracks, its lead single was the ballad "I Need You", chosen by producer Richard Perry in hopes of reinforcing the Pointer Sisters presence at R&B radio: the dance track "Jump (for My Love)" was intended as the second single but the heavy airplay afforded "Automatic" as an album cut by both dance clubs and radio stations caused the substitution of "Automatic" for "Jump..." as the second single release from Break Out, although "Jump..." would become the most successful US single off Break Out when it became the album's third single.

SHIf there’s one track that helps define one of the ultimate 1980s synth-pop and R&B crossover grooves, it’s “Automatic” by The Pointer Sisters. Included on their 1983 smash-hit album Break Out, and released as a single in early 1984, the song is famous for Ruth Pointer’s distinctive deep lead vocal. The song marked the very first time Ruth sang lead on a track that broke the Billboard Top 40.
The intricate vocal layering was critically acclaimed. “Automatic” won a Grammy Award for Best Vocal Arrangement for Two or More Voices and was a big crossover success and a hit worldwide.
Penned by Mark Goldenberg and Brock Walsh, the track’s heavy use of synthesizers and drum machines helped to further transition the sisters from their classic jazz, R&B and soul roots into defining icons of ‘80s dance-pop.

I_The Pointer Sisters - Break Out lp 1983.
“Automatic” is the jam and it was the last song added to the LP before its release. It was originally written with a male vocal in mind and that’s why Ruth Pointer is singing it so low.The Pointer Sisters have a solid discography going back to the early 70’s but I think we can all agree that they made sure to insert their 80’s pop grooves into our blood stream and I love it!
The 2 hit singles from this album were:
“Jump(For My Love)”
“Automatic”
This song was released 40 years ago this year(Jan 13th,1984). Feel old yet? 😆 Do you have a favorite Pointer Sisters jam?

“Look what you’re doing to me, I’m utterly at your whim…”
In 1984, the Pointer Sisters electrified the airwaves with “Automatic”, a slick, funky jam from their smash album Break Out. With pulsing synths, irresistible grooves, and Ruth Pointer’s powerhouse deep contralto vocals leading the way, the song marked a bold shift into the world of electro-funk and R&B. It wasn’t just another 80s hit — it was a sound that pushed boundaries and cemented the Pointer Sisters as one of the most versatile groups of the decade.
Fun Facts:
• Automatic hit #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became one of the Pointer Sisters’ biggest singles.
• Ruth Pointer’s unexpectedly deep lead vocals gave the track its unforgettable edge.
• The album Break Out produced multiple hits including Jump (For My Love) and Neutron Dance.
• The group won a Grammy Award for Best Vocal Arrangement for Two or More Voices with Automatic.
• The futuristic, neon-soaked vibe of the music video matched perfectly with the rising synthpop trend of the mid-80s.

🇺🇸🎤⚡ The Pointer Sisters — Automatic
💬 “Look what you’re doin’ to me… I’m completely automatic.”
This one right here? Straight synth-driven heat. Automatic wasn’t just another ‘80s dance track — it had that icy groove, that robotic pulse, and then Ruth Pointer comes in with that deep, commanding vocal that didn’t sound like anything else on the radio. It wasn’t sweet. It wasn’t soft. It was controlled, confident, and cool as hell. That hook hits and you’re already moving without thinking. Completely automatic.
By ’84, The Pointer Sisters had already evolved from their early funk and soul roots into full-blown pop royalty. Automatic became one of their signature records — futuristic production, sharp choreography, and that unmistakable vocal tone that gave the track its edge. It’s one of those songs that instantly throws you into neon lights, mirrored floors, and late-night MTV rotations.
🕊️ Tribute
