I love that eyeroll Death gives at the end. It's like, "Fine... Keep him. I'll get you both later anyway."
Reminded me of the monsters in the From TV show that never run to kill their prey. They ALWAYS walk because the people are trapped in the town, and they'll get them all... eventually.
I figure the icon falling off the wall was a harbinger of Siobhan's angel of death coming... 😆
@@Johnny_Socko 👏😂
My fav comment this week!
I saw that. Brilliant.
I’ve heard of sopranos shattering glass with their voice but this is the first time I’ve seen a vocalist with the ability to knock things off a wall!! 😁
😂😂
It's all auto tune. I'm sorry. But it's too artificial.
@@nineradvocate I'm old (really old) school when it comes to making music so it's not my thing either. Just having fun. 🙂
Autotune came 1996 or 1997, this song 1992. Some people can sing.
@@Eulaalia10 the Eventide H910 Harmonizer debuted in the 1970s. Pitch correction has been around for about 50 years now. This song was actually used as an example of heavy use of it, especially in the beginning of it. I am old and I remember it. I may have been wrong about which pitch corrector they were using, but they were definitely using one. And one turned way way up. Like Cher famously did in Believe.
This song was an absolute masterpiece. The video took it beyond the Stars.
Fun fact. The shoot for this video took way longer than expected, and everybody was getting bored, so Siobhan went for a wander, found the bar and got absolutely smashed on vodka. When she showed up to do her part she could barely stand up, but they went with it and the result was brilliantly and hilariously over the top.
Also, the name Shakepears Sister is the title of a song by The Smiths.
Great story thanks for that👍
Her dance was very Rocky Horror Picture Show … I loved this ever since I was a teenager.
Quality
@@rachel-in-the-208Some of her eye expressions had a ozzy osbourne vibe to them!
More importantly, the hypothetically tragic life of Shakespeare's fictional sister is given in a speech by Virginia Woolf in the 1920s to the young women of Girton College, Cambridge, and subsequently published as the essay 'A Room of One's Own'. It imagines a sister of the playwright attempting to work in theatre in a world where women were denied an education, and any career beyond bearing children and keeping house.
Woolf: 'Any woman born with a great gift in the sixteenth century would certainly have gone crazed, shot herself, or ended her days in some lonely cottage outside the village, half witch, half wizard, feared and mocked at. For it needs little skill in psychology to be sure that a highly gifted girl who had tried to use her gift for poetry would have been so thwarted and hindered by other people, so tortured and pulled asunder by her own contrary instincts, that she must have lost her health and sanity to a certainty. No girl could have walked to London and stood at a stage door and forced her way into the presence of actor-managers without doing herself a violence...'
Siouxsie and the Banshees! Bjork! Garbage! L7! Liz Phair! PJ Harvey! So many amazing female artists of the 90's that I would love to see someday.
Add Hole and Elastica to that list as well
Pretend We're Dead is an awesome L7 song!
You forgot sister 7, Magnapop, Elastica, Tracy Bonham, Veruca Salt, NY Loose, the Breeders, Whale, Aimee Mann, and Concrete Blonde! Lol love the ones you mentioned though!
Liz Phair, 'and he slayed her' (ding dong, the witch is dead)
Amen. But let's not forget Elizabeth Fraser ❤
Marcella Detroit has an amazing voice. Siobhan Fahey was in Bananarama. Great girl group(s). They didn't speak for 20+ years but are now back together. This track still hold the UK record for longest number 1 by a girl group (8 weeks), unbeatable by the Spice Girls or even Little Mix. They have many hits for you to check out :))
Cruel Summer is definitely my fave!
I recall one member of Bananarama is married to Andrew Ridgley, “the other guy” in Wham!
This song was their ONLY hit song in the United States. They are a One-Hit Wonder here.
Yes, they came out with an amazing new song just a couple years back called “All The Queens Horse’s” and have been touring since.
@@ashleydixon4613WAS married 😉 It's Keren Woodward. Siobhan Fahey of Bananarama and Shakespears Sister fame was married to Dave Stewart of Eurythmics.
The angel of death Is Siobhan Fahey (* 1958) formerly of Bananarama who had become tired of the pure pop direction Bananarama was going. So she left in spring 1988 to form Shakespears Sister. Her biggest hits were "Stay" (1992) from their second album "Hormonally Yours" and "You're History" from their first album "Sacred Heart" which includes my favourite "Run Silent". The girl with the high voice is Marcella Detroit (* 1950). She was fired by Siobhan in 1993 maybe because of jealousy. But they reunited in 2019 after 26 years of silence and released the WONDERFUL single "All The Queen's Horses". All of the songs I mentioned plus "I Don't Care" (1992) are definitely worth checking out!
I haven’t listens to this song in about 30 years and my whole body came out in goose bumps. WOW What a masterpiece ❤
Still does it to me now
hey that's funny....exactly the same thing
Me too
Likewise, I remember belting this out snd my dad yelling that I'd be on my deathbed if I didn't shut up. Good old days
Me too, I'm a huge fan.
One of the most magical and beautiful songs ever made. It came out 1992, I was 11 years old. Goosebumps everytime I hear it. ❤
Marcella Detroit is singing at the start, Siobhan Fahey (formerly of Bananarama) is the other singer
The lady being scary is Siobhan from Bananarama.
Yes, It’s gonna be a cruel summer. 😊
Well at the time she left Bannana Rama
I was today years old 😳
She’s your Venus, she’s your fire, it’s your desire…
Love her
I always loved this song but it became more poignant when I lost my husband. I can't help but shed a tear when I hear it. . 😢 A classic of a song and video.
Music really has a way of pulling those feelings out eh. My condolences.
I'm very sorry for your loss. ❤ Hope you're doing well.
Hope you’re doing ok ❤️
I know losing your husband is tougher than losing a best friend but the Huey Lewis And The News song Power Of Love reminds me of my late best mate Clifford because,
1- We were both MASSIVE Back To The Future fans.
2-I remember he always had his Huey Lewis And The News Greatest Hits CD sitting beside his computer in his bedroom.
Still miss you Cliff😢😢.
Sorry for your loss Dawn my thoughts and prayers 🙏 are with you
Dawn, I felt exactly the same when I lost my husband. I feel like I want it played at my own funeral to express how I felt xx
Fun fact: Marcella Detroit, as Marcy Levy, co-wrote Lay Down Sally with Eric Clapton and did backing vocals for him many times. She’s an incredible vocalist and it’s good to see this song tingling spines so many years after its release.
When the second vocalist drops, everything changes. What a unique song. Marcella Detroit is the first vocalist, and Siobhan Fahey is the “Angel of Death”.
♥️✌🏼😎🎭
YES! Almost like that song "In the Air" by Phil Collins.
I love Siobhan's voice. It really give the song power!
Siobhan was pissed when they filmed that scene as well. I think she drank a couple of bottles of wine or something to get into character which I find absolutely hilarious. She did it so well though.
She was my celebrity crush when I was younger because of part in this song weirdly enough 😂 Well not weird. All my lad mates thought she was a bit weird. I still think she's hot lol
@@russellhobbs7245It was vodka lol
Virginia Woolf wrote an essay entitled “A Room of One’s Own” in which she contemplates what it would be like ‘if Shakespeare had a sister’ as talented as he. Would her works have been recognized in a world run by men? Would she even be allowed a room in which to write?
Anyway, that’s where the band’s name comes from. A perfect choice for Female Friday.
Never knew that! Thanks!
P
So intresting, thank you for information!
Who's afraid of Virginia wolf ? 😆 great movie. .
William Shakespeare did have two sisters, but they died before he was born.
Marcella Detroit could also sing this flawlessly live. I heard them do it twice and each time she hit every single note exactly as you hear it on the recording. Incredible talent.
I saw a recent live performance where she is ~70 years old and delivered the song flawlessly, same for Siobhan :)
Even after all these years, this song still sends shivers up & down my spine! Brilliant song!
This song gets more powerful with multiple hearings. Listen to it more than once.
Sophie B Hawkins "Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover" is a perfect song for female Friday's! Plus a big 90's hit!
What happened with Shakespeares Sister was sad. It was Siobhan's solo project originally - she was the lead and Marcie was brought in as a backing singer.
It was their management who requested that Marcie be lifted into co-lead and Siobhan felt strongarmed into it. Understandably, there was an element of resentment, even though they were dynamite together.
Siobhan went through a very rough patch with her marriage and her mental health and it led to her sacking Marcie very publicly at an awards show, having not told her before hand.
They didn't speak another word for years, right up until 2019 when they started mending fences.
They got back together properly a year later and are now releasing music and touring together again.
Im glad they've buried the past and hope they do another album because their 90s work was amazing.
Shakespeare's Sister were SO underrated back in their day, and they were AMAZING! The lady with the angelic voice is Marcella Detroit, and the Angel of Death is Siobhan Fahey (pronounced 'Shivorn Faye,') formerly of another well-known eighties girl group Bananarama. Fun fact: while making this video, Siobhan had to do many hours of waiting around before she got to shoot her bit, so she passed the time drinking... a lot. If you were thinking she looked drunk while she was performing in this, that's because... she was!
Other songs of theirs I can recommend: 'You're History,' 'I Don't Care,' 'Hello (Turn Your Radio On)...'
I agree with ewerything you said, but the fact they were underreted - nope...
They were all over MTV and radio
Their song "I Don't Care" is also fantastic.
This album was on HEAVY ROTATION in my college dorm room that year!
My favourite ... as well as the video for it!
Absolutely my favorite of theirs!
Dang, I’d forgotten about that song!
Shakespears Sister is an alternative pop and rock musical duo based in the United Kingdom that was formed in 1988 by singer-songwriter Siobhan Fahey, a former member of Bananarama. Shakespears Sister was initially a solo act but became a duo by 1989, with the addition of American musician Marcella Detroit.
As a teenager of the 90s, it’s so cool to see y’all discovering this video for the first time. Such a uniquely beautiful song! ❤⭐️
This song was played at my mates funeral…. I’ve never been the same since. This song brings tears, goosebumps and over the years a warm smile of the awesome times we had together.
Marcella Detroit is an incredible vocalist. Her solo hit Believe is awesome
The Rob squad just look very confused when I first heard it saw the angel of death come down I thought wow 😮 this is great, with the music of today same as same as crap rap you can never be disappointed and unlike this record there are no surprises, sad very sad
'I Believe' from her brilliant solo album. I love the song 'Prima Donna', it's very operatic.
I believe is one of my favorite songs. Amazing vocals, beautiful lyrics…
This song was so cool when it came out!!! I still love how hauntingly beautiful it is❤
Something in the water over the pond the artists are insanely talented
Siobhan and Marcella are a true dynamic duo. Separately, it would be hard to listen to each of them for too long. But the contrast of Marcella’s high notes and Siobhan’s deep husky tones is magic. A particularly haunting song I remember well is Hello (Turn your Radio on). It’s like someone woke up after everyone else on earth was wiped out 🫣
My glamgoth heart had a huge crush on both of them. The 2nd vocalist Siobhan carried over from Bananarama, and Marcella is beautiful and has a great voice.
Marcella Detroit is the first singer and she has a very interesting history working with Eric Clapton. The creepy singer is Siobhan Fahey who was in Bananarama and was also married to Dave Stewart of The Eurythmics. The album this song is from us called Hormonally Yours and is one of my favorite albums of the early 90’s. It’s a frigging masterpiece.
I was going to mention something similar to this as well! This song drew me in when it was first released!!!
Came here to say just that!
Yes! Amen!
Siobhan reminds me of Magenta from Rocky Horror
The reason the album was called Hormonally Yours is they were both pregnant when they were writing it.
This song has three acts and all three smash... Probably my all time fave song.. what i absolutely love about it is you can how it influences current artists..
This is what I love about your channel: getting reintroduced to songs I'd long since forgotten and remembering how awesome they were. Your reaction to the dramatic turn from Marcella to Siobhan's vocals is exactly how we all felt the 1st time we heard it..
I forgot all about this song too!
Me: Watching Jay be impressed with Marcella’s range in the first few lines of the song, but also knowing she’s about to go full Mariah soon.
I friggin' love this song. It's STILL on my active play list.
Been there since the 90s! This is one of my all time faves
Forgot how great this song actually is. Nice reaction
This song is timeless. Hard to believe the song is 31 years old!! Siobhan Fahey is 1 of the 3 singers from the 80s female trio called Bananarama. Marcella Detroit has an amazing vocal range . She is very tall. I met her 1x in NYC. Circa 994. She said s he was really close to 6'1!
Stay was the group’s second hit . Their first hit You’re History , Siobhan takes the lead in the vocals and sheds her blonde bob hair cut poppy Bananarama image and shows off her deeper seductive voice while Marcella Detroit brings her high voice and gives the song a bit of an eccentric feel .
It’s not surprising you guys didn’t recognise Siobhan even though you did Bananarama’s I Heard A Rumour recently . She changed her image and singing style dramatically several years after leaving Bananarama
I was today years old...
Siobhan was so drunk when they recorded the video, she could hardly stand.
😂😂
My favorite is "Goodbye Cruel World", from the same album as "Stay".
Wow! I never knew that Siobhan was from Bananarama!
Great song. That whole album is really good.
The first singer is Marcella Detroit. Several years ago I had the privilege of seeing her sing this with an acoustic guitar at a backyard concert.
I saw these ladies perform this just days before the UK went into the first COVID lockdown and they've still got it! Such a gorgeous song, and I'm grateful that I got to see them live!
Marcella has practically made this song "untouchable" in the Karaoke world. Bravo!
This is one of those songs that I completely forget about until I hear it somewhere, and then I'm like YES I REMEMBER I LOVE THIS SONG. 😂
I remember when I first saw this video and thought how awesome it was in its theatricality and weirdness.
Edit; LOL I typed the above before watching your video. Those objects falling off your wall were an omen of the witch to shortly come in the video. Get it? You weren't expecting what was to come in the video, you weren't expecting objects to fall off your wall. Too funny. The first singer obviously has a powerful voice.
I love watching first time reactions to this video because no one is ever ready for that drop.
I remember this video from my childhood & was slightly scared of it! The song is amazing, as is, now looking back to it, the video. Cannot believe this muat be abiut 30yrs old?? Still stunning.
I have loved this song for years! These women are amazing! Thank you SO much for reviewing this one.
OMG I’ve suggested this a few times and I’m so glad you’re finally reacting to Shakespeare’s Sister! I still get chills listening to this song. Siobhan Fahey is the darker angel of death and Marcella Detroit starts the song. Their voices are so different, yet they compliment each other and sound amazing! Keep on going with them! “You’re History”, “I Don’t Care”, “Dirty Mind”, and “Run Silent” are other favorites. There are so many more, and I hope to see more reactions. Thank you for making me smile!
Me too! :D
Grew up listing to their albums - remember getting the vinyl back in the day & they got many a play.
@@Paul_1971 my first vinyl single was 'Your're History' :)
@@Problembeing That's when they first got my attention & was my first single of theirs I bought - was a good one for my mix tape!
Hello- turn your radio on is underrated
Fun fact: If the 2nd singer appears drunk' it’s because she was! She was absolutely off her face drunk, and the bit where struggling over his body, Marcella is genuinely trying to control her, like, "Pull it together, woman, we’re working here!!"
Nothing to do with alcohol! She wasn’t drunk at all! It is a battle life over death battling over her love
@@kylieknight2365 I understand the concept of the video, but I read somewhere she was actually drunk during filming.
I’ve had this song on my main Spotify playlist for a while now. Loved it when it came out and still love it. It’s perfect in so many ways.
That angel of death is Siobhan Fahey from Bananarama....I love this record, "Stay."
Formed in the UK, the duo are Marcella Detroit (American) who was the first vocalist and Siobhan Fahey (Anglo-Irish and ex-Bananarama) who was the Angel of Death. They had other hits but that was by far their biggest. They were only together as a duo for four years before falling out.
Anglo-American, surely?
@@markrichards636Siobhan's English-Irish lass ❤️
I love you so much. You are incredibly open to music. You are characterized by a true curiosity about new songs and musical decades. I love watching you.
Patrick Wilson the actor and the band Ghost just released a cover of this. You may find it interesting as well!
The angel of death was the former member of Bananarama!
Another duo from the 80s are sisters Mel and Kim who have a more dance/pop sound with Respectable, Showing Out, FLM.
Marcella Detroit (Marcy Levy) is the main singer on this one. She co-wrote Eric Clapton’s “Lay Down Sally” (and sang backup on it) about 14 years before this song was a hit. She was nearly 40 here.
Marcella Detroit is the singer. Siobhan Fahey is the angel of death. She was also in Bananarama
Siobhan & Marcella are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I grew up in the 80s, and ironically I have never heard this song until back in 2016 while watching MTV classics channel, and it was love at first sight. I LOVE this song and I've been waiting for it to come across your reactions. Still gives me goosebumps and chills.
Glad you chose this one, Amber! A fave “one-hit wonder” of mine from 1992 (I was 17). Another from the early 90’s you should try for Female Friday is “Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover,” by Sophie B Hawkins.
They had more than one hit
God I loved the music of the first half of the 90s...
they had more than one hit by the way
Cer5ainly not a one hit wonder!!
Sophie B. also had hits with songs like “Right Beside You” “As I Lay Me Down” and “California, Here I Come”.
It’s a beautiful song absolutely
This song has a very interesting structure. After the second chorus it seems like it’s going to become something different but then the chorus comes back into it, as the two different styles work with and against each other.
One of my favorite albums. Awesome song. Other great ones are "I Don't Care" and "Hello (Turn Your Radio On)".
Was so freakin excited when I saw you were reacting to Shakespears Sister! Turned my bad day into a better day ✌️
Haven't heard this in YEARS!! Thank you- this was startling back in the day.
The power of Marcella's voice shook the room! Thank you for playing Shakespear's Sister. I was fortunate to have Marcy come off the stage and pull me to her and sing the WHOLE song 'Stay' to me whilst looking me in the eyes. It was a moment. The song was co-written with Siobhan's former husband, Dave Stewart from The Eurythmics, Siobhan was in Bananarama, and Marcy was Eric Clapton's backing singer. The video was made by Sophie Muller who did Annie Lennox's videos, and it won a Brit award. ALSO - Siobhan was SO DRUNK when she descended down those stairs as the Angel of Death, she nearl;y fell down them. She had been waiting all day to film her bit, and was nervous, so she polished off nearly a whole bottle of Vodka. This song was ay number one in the UK charts for EIGHT WEEKS, and came out when my great grandfather passed away, and became my grandmother's favourite song. This song came from their second album, released in 1992, called 'Hormonally Yours' because it was written and recorded when they were both pregnant. PLEASE do more Shakespear's Sister; You're History, Goodbye Cruel World, I Don't Care, Sacred Heart, Hello (Turn Your Radio On), Catwoman, All the Queen's Horses... So many :)
I don't know all the details about recording songs, but I'd hope she didn't get so drunk while pregnant.
@@w1975b lol. No, they were both pregnant during the recording sessions. The video shoot was way after that 😁
@@Problembeing that's good :)
Otherwise that wouldn't have been good lol@@w1975b
Glad to see someone else love this song! It has a meaning to it when you really go deep within to other realms
Getting Goosebumps everytime hearing the song ❤
New music for me. Voices were amazing!
New music:
1. "Solid" - by Ashford and Simpson
Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson were a husband and wife songwriting, production, and recording
duo. Nick Ashford died in 2011. "Solid" was released in 1984.
2. "Juicy Fruit" - by Mtume (pronounced M-too-may) - 1983 (the music will sound very familiar to you guys)
3. "Take Your Time (Do It Right)" - by S.O.S. Band (S.O.S. stands for Sounds of Success) - 1980
4. "Caravan of Love" - by Isley, Jasper, Isley (as in some of the Isley Brothers) - 1985
5. "Use It Be My Girl" - by The O'Jays - 1978
6. "New Attitude" - by Patti LaBelle - for Beverly Hills Cop movie soundtrack - 1984
7. "If You Asked Me To" - by Patti LaBelle - 1989 (covered by Celine Dion 3 years later in 1992)
"Hello. Turn Your Radio On" is another song by Shakespear's Sister that I would listen to on a loop as a teenager because of it's beautiful sound. It was both melancholy and hopeful.
There's plenty of other songs by Shakespear's Sister that I could recommend. Their album "Hormonally Yours" was pretty much Golden for me. But I'd definitely recommend "Hello" for the video. :)
Marcella Detroit (American) took part in a British TV show called Pop Star to Opera Star, and she sang a notoriously difficult Mozart aria called The Queen of the Night which involves some unbelievably high notes - an F above a high C - and she was INCREDIBLE! It was quite a while ago. I think she, unfairly, came 2nd to an English woman from Bucks Fizz (if I remember rightly). I can only imagine it was because the public wanted a British person to win. Shame on them if true - speaking as an English woman myself. Marcella, hands down, deserved to Win 🏆
I swear Siobhán is channeling Nina Hagen when she comes in with her part. 💜💜💜 You definitely need to check out Apocalyptica's cover of Rammstein's Seemann featuring Nina Hagen. Marcella has the most angelic voice.
Nina Hagen was so cool. Naturträne (live at Rockpalast) is amazing!
Finally! I have been waiting for this reaction for two years. Their live version when I saw them was even more moving. Next you should try I Don't Care or Hello (Turn the Radio On).
YES!!! You guys finally got to Shakespear's Sister!! I knew you'd enjoy "Stay" (especially that drop, still gives me chills) and hard to believe she was one of the pop singers in Bananarama!! You should check out "The Trouble With Andre" - "Catwoman" - "I Don't Care" - & "You're History" - keep smiling y'all and thanks for making my day a great one with this awesome reaction to one of my all-time favorite songs, ever!! 🥰🎶🥰
PREACH!!
"Stay" is such a cool song.
INTERESTING FACT:
Marcella Detroit (Marcy Levy) sings the intro.
Siobhan Fahey sings in the later part of the song.
Siobhan Fahey used to be
in "BANANARAMA"
Her bandmate from
Bananarama used to date
Dave Evans in the 1980s.
Dave Evans is the man who appears in the music video for "Stay" by
Shakespeare's Sister.
LOVE THE SONG!
❤❤
This was a huge hit. I’m appreciating it more now than then. ♥️👏👏 The sax man falling was hysterical. I had to rewind to watch it again!
I've always loved this song. My daughter even used it in a dance competition. Another one from this duo is "You're History". Also very unique sounding
iobhan Fahey, born 10 September 1958 in Dunshaughlin, County Meath, is an Irish singer, former member of Bananarama and then Shakespeare's Sister. Between 1987 and 1996, she was married to musician David A. Stewart
Praising the vocals and were all sitting here thinking.....wait for it, wait for it....
I seen the girls perform this live when they opened up for Prince when he toured the UK. Awesome stuff.
Wow!! Now that's a concert I wish I was at!
One of my most favorite songs from growing up. I had the cassingle with b-side “I Don’t Care.” Wore that tape out! Thanks for choosing this one.
The story goes that Siobhan Fahey grew really tired of waiting on them to film Marcella Detroit's parts for the video. So she got a bit drunk in the back with the crew, and performed her parts as the Angel of Death slightly inebriated. It makes for some of the most amazing moments with her gestures, looks and the wonderful eyeroll that she gives at the end.
Thank you both so much for checking this out!! If you want to hear more from them, anything from the "Hormonally Yours" album (which this is from) is great. I especially recommend "I Don't Care" if you want to hear more of Siobhan though.
Gosh not heard this song for a long while ...
Thanks for playing it ❤
Been waiting a long time for you to do this one. True classic. Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) co wrote the song with Siobhan Fahey and Marcella Detroit. The album Hormonally Yours is a true banger
Great duo. Marcella with her amazing voice and Siobhan with her creativity and strength.
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet and I love Shakespeare's Sister. I listened to every song on this album, on cassette tape again and again, love it. Hurt and passion, light and dark, yin and yang, beautiful and mysterious, love it. Thanks for sharing and listening 🎧
absolute fantastic song. Loved it the first time round when it was initially released, and still love it now! Most of the songs from some 20-30 years past are still the best in the music world, and this is right up there amongst the top rankings!
The long haired singer is Siobhon Fahey from Bananarama whom you have previously reacted to - this song is hauntingly beautiful x x
Band is Letters To Cleo....song is called Here And Now.......total 90s one hit wonder with a female lead singer who sounds like an angel but the song is a banger....En Vogue's song Free Your Mind absolutely rocks!!! All great pics for Female Friday! Have a great weekend brothers and sisters!
Peace from PA ✌️
Yes! Fantastic song.
Letters to Cleo also had “Dangerous Type” from the movie soundtrack for “The Craft”, a 90s classic.
I was gonna suggest Here & Now but I couldn't remember the band. Thanks!
When I first saw this back in 92, it creeped me out, but I love the voice the notes and the little story. She hit such a high note she knocked Amber's saxophone man off the shelf. 🤣
I loved them and miss them. Great song❤
Amber! You need to check out Siouxsie & The Banshees! She’s SO influential. Considered by many to be the Mother of Goth music.
Toy Soldier by Martika....now thats a 90s song for sure.
I watched them live they were amazing. Even had pics and a game of cards on the back of there tour bus with the band members 😉😁
Yes amazing duo, was a massive no1 in uk in the 90’s
Fun fact, Siobhan Fahey [the 'second' singer] admitted that when they filmed this video, they had spent all day waiting around and so she started drinking vodka to pass the time. They started filming at 8pm, by which point she was wasted.
You can kind of tell by her performance.
She downed nearly a whole bottle of vodka lol She nearly fell down the stairs 🤣
I loved this song when I was young. For years, I didn't know what happened to them, until I looked them up in the early 2000s. I was devastated to learn what happened between them.
I was very happy, & honestly surprised, when I learned they finally got back together in '19.
I still love this song. ❤
What was so devastating? What happened besides them breaking up?
Marcella Detroit was the lead singer. The other singer was Siobhan Fahey, who was in Bananarama and was once married to Dave Stewart of Eurythmics.
I was a freshman in high school when this came out. I love this song
Always loved this song and video!
Finally! I’ve been waiting for your reaction on this song for over a year. The voices and the unaspected turn in the song are still as breathtaking as ever. This was a huge song in the 90’s. Loved your reaction. Thank YOU!
This song broke my heart when I first heard it in ‘92 and did again when I can across this video today. so emotive..😢
I love this song since it came out
