The performance was really great. The highlight of this was the interplay between Marcella and Siobhan and the faces they would make at each other. The best reason to watch this is the wild dancing from Siobhan!! Her dancing is priceless!!!
Siobhan is a stunning presence in this performance. I'll never forget seeing this the night the show originally aired. Siobhan's make-up job reminded me of Darryl Hannah's character "Pris", one of the replicant escapees in the film BLADE RUNNER while Siobhan's knock-kneed dancing moves stoved in me brains for keeps. Thank you for posting this clip!
Marcella’s scream in the beginning and at the bridge sends a chill down my spine! And it’s live. She could do that for a whole song and I’ love it. Simply amazing.
all that said, Siobhan's' performance here in this video is delicious and addictive, from the dancing to the singing and her facial expressions! awesome!...
I love Shakespeare sister's... They are a performers of music and I love their stage act... Music is cool...better than some music of today. They should reunite again.
Love those Gothic Dollies! This is a great performance, lots of theatre going on between them. Siobhan's always been my favourite but i think they make a great duo together. The fourth album is excellent but darker than anything thats gone before. I think Marcellas helium highs were a good balance for Siobhans deeper emotions...but then again, i like the dark! X
Well I think Siobhan looks gorgeous. Love her facial expressions, her dress, her dance and I just basically love her! And of course, this song, great performance.
I saw and taped this when it was originally broadcast. After the performance, David Letterman made a comment about how they "blew the roof off the dump" and then said, (more or less) "I knew it was a mistake. I never should have let them play with the glitter." Too bad that didn't get included here.
They sounded so good live. Marcy was flawless hitting those high notes and they harmonized so well with Siobhan's contralto and Marcy's soprano. They were a great combo but like so many things, it can't ever last.
Had a girlfriend around about the time these two were still together and killing it, and when she'd occasionally go "goth" for me, she was a dead ringer for Siobhan, make-up, hair, body and all... I miss my youth, that time, those two girls and the music, but not the girlfriend!
I remember the night this aired! I was about to be 18 and seeing a much older man. He called me and said SS was performing that night and I thought that meant he actually paid attention to what I liked...nope. The guy didn't last, but my love for SS sure did!
To those who have said Siobhan must have been drunk or high during this performance, if you have ever been just a little bit tipsy you would understand how easy it is to fall down. She couldn't be drunk or high and still manage to dance like that.. The most powerful images represent contrast. That's why the dark appearance works so well with the light-hearted dancing.
I saw this performance when it came out on tv. letterman said to the one girl, after he shook her hand, "they should stop you from playing with the glitter." I laughed so hard....but I when out to buy the cd. memories
I think they complete each other. The one on the right is more interesting to look at and dances a bit while singing and the left one has awesome vocals and plays an instrument, too. :)
How is this the first time I have heard this song? Damn, that performance is art. This is the girl from Bananarama's brain child? She is an artistic genius. She is strangely compelling. I was a bit sad when she left Bananarama, but after seeing this I am thinking she was probably a whole lot more creative and interesting than she was allowed to be in Bananarama? That was so weird and I love it!
Siobhan and Marci remind me of Magenta and Columbia from The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Even their voices are similar: Magenta (aka Patricia Quinn) has a low husky voice while Columbia (played by Little Nell) has a higher and slightly squeakier one.
@PYSCOPOMP Since the band broke up Marcella has had a solo career writing and performing her own songs, she released a couple of solo albums and I believe still writes for herself and other artists.
The performance was really great. The highlight of this was the interplay between Marcella and Siobhan and the faces they would make at each other. The best reason to watch this is the wild dancing from Siobhan!! Her dancing is priceless!!!
It's too Siobhan's ego got in the way and ruined things. They could have been a lot more successful.

Marcella’s scream in the beginning and at the bridge sends a chill down my spine! And it’s live. She could do that for a whole song and I’ love it. Simply amazing.
Nobody's cooler than siobhan in this video .
all that said, Siobhan's' performance here in this video is delicious and addictive, from the dancing to the singing and her facial expressions! awesome!...
Sounding great, Marcella D! Love the costuming & make-up! xox
Extremely under-appreciated vocal talent...Amazing power and range!
I love Shakespeare sister's... They are a performers of music and I love their stage act... Music is cool...better than some music of today. They should reunite again.
Better than all the music today.
Yep, 1992! Fantastic!!!!!!!

It's good see an artist sing live on TV.

They sounded so good live. Marcy was flawless hitting those high notes and they harmonized so well with Siobhan's contralto and Marcy's soprano.
They were a great combo but like so many things, it can't ever last.
Yes, Indeed.
they are back together for years already
@@monstertruckess indeed, my original comment was 13 years ago.
I love these gals
Siobhan looks like shes dancing off a hangover
Thank you!
Saw them '92 in Hamburg and they were incredible :)
I don't remember seeing you there.
they were freaking awesome together, and it's a damn shame that we will likely never see them onstage together again.
they are back at it
love these girls!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
good dancing..
God Marcella Detroit has a beautiful soprano voice
Great
... great stuff !!!
Drunk and covered with glitter, this is how I want to live
both so hot!! and so talented!!
I like her dance ;)
Had a girlfriend around about the time these two were still together and killing it, and when she'd occasionally go "goth" for me, she was a dead ringer for Siobhan, make-up, hair, body and all... I miss my youth, that time, those two girls and the music, but not the girlfriend!

I think it was sometime around 1992... I remember this song playing at a school dance when I was 13.

sisters mistrzostwo !!! I Love you
I saw this performance when it came out on tv. letterman said to the one girl, after he shook her hand, "they should stop you from playing with the glitter." I laughed so hard....but I when out to buy the cd. memories
LOL - I remember that.
Brilliant Artists! his could only be in teh 90s and could only be from the UK. LOVE IT!
ragga man The 1990s never existed and I was there to prove it
oh they were so great :)
Where did these guys go??? MORE!! Come ON!
Still excellent!
shakespears sis rules my walkman :3
the girl from bananarama is crazy-awesome in this vid.
A great song! No more needed to say

Siobhan is potty, but absolutely amazing!
She is simply amazing and so inspiring
She? There are two of them.
This was glorious.

shakespear's sister were a work of art! totally unique, there hasnt been anyone else quite like them
jajaja me acuerdo de esas canciones q bueno q ahora ya no necesite de escuchar radio doble nueve ni llamra para q las pasen exellente waww
Wonderful :-)
perfect.xxxxxxxxxx
Bravo
@skibofilms
LOL I keep looking for any video that goes a few minutes longer to see that again...I laughed my ass off!
I think they complete each other. The one on the right is more interesting to look at and dances a bit while singing and the left one has awesome vocals and plays an instrument, too. :)
That's what I call a performance.
Awesome! I like Siobhan's dress;)

That was so weird and I love it!
They reformed last year!
She hated the Brit pop road that Pete Waterman was taking Bananarama down which is one of the main reasons she left and started Shakespears Sister.
Marcella!!!!!!!!!!
At 2:40, Siobhan has earned every penny for this performance!
great
great to see art.....
The lead singer was the blondie in Bananarama
this purrformance has stuck with me ever since I saw!
@AshestoAshes83 are Space and Cery still performing together over in the UK...they are theatrical together like SS was...
amo las expresiones faciales de fahey
Playing with the Paul Shaffer band!
ale wariatki hehehe ale są zajebiste!!Najważniejsze to się dobrze bawić.
Siobhan was the more talented one as in regards to selling their acts, style and edgeyness..but Marcella's voice was so amazing!
Damn! They cut the part at the end where Dave says, "Paul, I warned you about letting the guests play in the glitter!"
Siobhan and Marci remind me of Magenta and Columbia from The Rocky Horror Picture
Show. Even their voices are similar: Magenta (aka Patricia Quinn) has a low husky voice while Columbia (played by Little Nell) has a higher and slightly squeakier one.
@PYSCOPOMP Since the band broke up Marcella has had a solo career writing and performing her own songs, she released a couple of solo albums and I believe still writes for herself and other artists.
Unicas
