Michael is my favorite bangles. Her voice is big and beautiful and her face is a beautiful creation of God! I've never seen a face as beautiful as hers!
What a fantastic live version of "Let it go". It's great they played it, since it was not a new song then. But watch them: There's no interaction between the girls on stage. They hadn't their best times then.
You can see Micki trying so hard to not give into the female band questions. It was impossible to be a woman and technically great or gifted at your instrument and be reduced to "do you fight over men, have groupies, or steal crimping irons." But the music speaks for itself. Phenomenal musicians they were and are.
There are some dark clouds over this interview. Because in these days the problems inside the band grew. The new album EVERYTHING didn't sell as well as expected, Susanna was thinking about a solo career, and on their tour the girls did not get along as well as in former times. Michael and Susanna didn't even join Debbi's wedding. Only a few months later they split up.
The Bangles four part harmonies at their best. It's a shame that at the end of 1989 they split, having just had a N°1 hit (Eternal Flame). For those that like to analyze each one: Debbi is the "quiet" Bangle. She's the one who generally talks less in the interviews. Her sister Vicki, is the "loud" Bangle and self-appointed "Troublemaker" (her own words). Michael is the "cool" Bangle. She's the "Fonzie" of the group (try to disagree with that). And Susanna is the "popular" Bangle. She's the one all the boys have a crush on (or at least the majority....me included). And the four of them are beautiful and very decent people. I wish they had continued their run after 1989 and not taken that 10 year hiatus.
i hate how every interview with the bangles is about groupies, sex and being a "gurl band". they never talk about the songs, their background or how they play live.
The first question when it comes to female groups is always about "whether you get jealous of each other?". They NEVER ask that in male groups do they, it's like men don't get jealous or anything it's only a trait of female musicians.
Sad to think they split up shortly after this aired. The band members have admitted in interviews that they weren’t good at talking to each other and trying to work out their differences. Susanna has also stated that she didn’t like being singled out as star of the band.
Classic!...Vicky looks so hot here!...and Susanna-as always-is the cute and sensitive one...I wanna be their groupie!...cuz they still rock and are still hot!
I think to of been able to compete with the boy bands, and Vicki is obviously more than Capable...Had actual long guitar solo's. that would of been something cool. If I perform a "Bangles Song Live I really do my best on creating guitar solo's when they are either short, or; Lacking. but this band really did it! The 80's belonged to them.
The Bangles really screwed up when they broke up. Not many bands have gone out on top and they were on top with a number one single Eternal Flame off their last album.
They wanted their own lives and the band disallowed them that. Except for Michael Steele who was never married. They did get back together after having their families and do Doll Revolution but it was years later.
How dare you call "Let it go" a filler song? That song is amazing because it shows a well balanced harmony between the four girls. No wonder you're an Anette Zilinskas' fanboy.
For some reason in 1986 or so, I thought the bass player was all that. Maybe I still do. But gawd that hair! I am a Zeppelin guy but the gals worked on me I guess. I am OK with this band!
botflyguy The Bangles came back & are still with us, but Arsenio bombed when he tried to revive his old show, Arsenio (or Arse-senio ), was living in the past, doing his 1989 show in 2014.😂
Cosmic Callings like politicians, they put a lot of spin on what was really going on, even the fan club labelled the breakup as a "hiatus". Susanna has admitted it was all spin.
Now they are back with their original bass player Annette, & hopefully they will record & they will become the group they were meant to be, before the fame & fortune sidetracked them.
Great performance, but omg the interview is a snoozer! Leno, Letterman, Kilborne, Kimmel, or Ferguson could've done a better job. What's w/Arsenio? I've seen him do better interviews.
here's the fun part...vicki is playing the carvin guitar geared for playing super heavy metal tunes. i'm sure the endorsement money for playing it was great, but it really negelected their signature sound. So hollow, tingy and no resonance. I'm sure today, Vicki would say, uh-huh to that....they always exude great sustain and clearity live...ya-hoo. Have seen them several times. Met them too and even watched a show on stage at HOB! Really chill and public ladies. Check out their latest...

Arsenio was such a terrible interviewer. The only reason he stayed on so long is because he had acts that the other late night talk shows wouldn't book.
Michael is my favorite bangles. Her voice is big and beautiful and her face is a beautiful creation of God! I've never seen a face as beautiful as hers!
The voices! The harmony! WOW
❤️ the 80s and the music. When life was fun and less complicated.
It wasn't.
You just weren't aware of it yet
They all play AND sing. That's good. They harmonize. Even better!
Perhaps the best pop band in the 80`s....
Michael has the most extraordinary stage presence
God bless her.I hope,and pray that the dear girl had a very Happy,and Healthy Christmas Godwilling.She really deserves it,dear Micki.
Yes, Michael was a very talented, and pretty young singer.God bless, anf keep both her & her dear pets well & safe.
Roxyofthemisfits She was good as a singer & a bass player.
Derlin Clair God bless her indeed, she served The Bangles well, & contributed to the elevation of women in Rock with being in 2 breakthrough groups.
The Bangles are so much better now with their original bass player, Annette Zilinksas.
Thanks Makita.
Vicki the Best.!
Poderosa banda de los 80'
Canciones llenas de talento.
The Bangles Forever.!
I like the way most comments in praise of Micki.Their all beautiful She has something extra all wraped up in time and experience.
I love how nobody noticed Vicki's killer quip about the ring: "Women in rock, you know, you have to take your rock off"
I think Michael did. :)
Liked it when the four of them harmonized and that was one of the few songs they did it for the whole song.
Yes. It sounds great. Too bad they didn't do more like that.
yes is true michael has a lovely look i love her
I liked them a lot! Talented musicians, etc...
I love them so much.
...Let it go, qué gran canción, diosss...I also love them...Me alegra encontrar otro Spanish fan....
Un saludo desde Madrid!
Muy bien chicas!

Such great players..and gorgeous!
Michael Steel always very elegant and glamorous
This was one of the last appearances of The Bangles for 10 years.
Micki steele so very cute.........micki is always cute ;)
serge Veilleux Susanna was gorgeous, as was Vicki & the engaged at the time, but since married & mom, Debbie, Micki was cute as well.
i much prefer Steele with dark hair
Cool song man.

WITH SUCH CHART TOPPERS AND TALENT SHOULD HAVE ASKED PRINCE TO RECOMEND MANAGEMENT AND WRITE OWN INTERVIEW QUESTIONS
To be fair, Debbi seems to be the victim of a major crimping session on this show, so he was probably looking at her when he thought of that.
I like them better today. It's about the music now as it was in the beginning. They were pop princesses back then and it led to their downfall.
Greatest Band!
Susana was sooooo pretty
Still is
I was a groupie for the whole band back in the day

Vicky also has an amazing sarcastic sense of humour
Micki almost reminds me of Daria

DeathShouldTakeMeNow I know. Show business..
The first question when it comes to female groups is always about "whether you get jealous of each other?". They NEVER ask that in male groups do they, it's like men don't get jealous or anything it's only a trait of female musicians.
You have to keep in mind that this was back in the 80's, not now.
I agree. They're musicians. They should be judged as such. I cringe when I read comments like "Susanna Hoffs is SO HOT!!!"
Why cringe?
The other 2 Bangles(Susanna & Micki ), were no shows at Debbie's wedding, & that showed there was cracks in the organization.
Y bueno si Mony y micky no se presentaron es porque no les llegaron las invitaciones 🤫🤭😆😂 la más aclamada x Latinoamérica Micky y Susana hoff ♥️
Lord all of this seems so long ago it was
I've seen a couple of interviews with the Bangles and they never include their keyboardist in them. Sad.
The Bangles are still with us, but Arsenio's show isn't.
Well, the Bangles without Michael are kinda like REM without Bill Berry. Still OK, but not what they have been.
Sad to think they split up shortly after this aired. The band members have admitted in interviews that they weren’t good at talking to each other and trying to work out their differences. Susanna has also stated that she didn’t like being singled out as star of the band.
I'd guess the other members didn't enjoy their label OR management's efforts to focus more on Susannah either.
Classic!...Vicky looks so hot here!...and Susanna-as always-is the cute and sensitive one...I wanna be their groupie!...cuz they still rock and are still hot!
I think to of been able to compete with the boy bands, and Vicki is obviously more than Capable...Had actual long guitar solo's. that would of been something cool.

dsfddsgh but they did come back & their comeback has lasted longer than then when they were originally together.
Sam S Just like The Beatles, but unlike The Beatles, they treated an original member much better to the point where she's back in the group.
Wait. Is it really true ? I mean about Micki not getting married.
Oh man. TRIP ! Now you made me feel like I lost my lifetime opportunity
No pudieron conseguir tecladista mujer??
Para que para que se ponga selosa de Mony x que la enfoca más a ella osea a Mony que la tecladista 🤫🤭😆
Are there other parts to this video? (It says part 1)
We tend to like the same clothes and MEN 4:40
When was "Let it Go" a hit?, that was one of the filler songs off of "Different Light".
How dare you call "Let it go" a filler song? That song is amazing because it shows a well balanced harmony between the four girls. No wonder you're an Anette Zilinskas' fanboy.
the 60's and the 80's had the sexiest young women!
"Bangle Baby Year" never happened, although 2 of The Bangles did have kids in 1998, not 1994.
@3:48 did Debbie say "one big orgy"? :D
Yes, she did................HA HA HA
Michael burns the Beatles!! LOL!
For some reason in 1986 or so, I thought the bass player was all that. Maybe I still do. But gawd that hair! I am a Zeppelin guy but the gals worked on me I guess. I am OK with this band!
Arsenio Who? He was just a flash in the pan. The Bangles rock!
botflyguy The Bangles came back & are still with us, but Arsenio bombed when he tried to revive his old show, Arsenio (or Arse-senio ), was living in the past, doing his 1989 show in 2014.😂
Watch them lie about whether they argue or not! They were about to break up any second...!
Cosmic Callings like politicians, they put a lot of spin on what was really going on, even the fan club labelled the breakup as a "hiatus". Susanna has admitted it was all spin.
Now they are back with their original bass player Annette, & hopefully they will record & they will become the group they were meant to be, before the fame & fortune sidetracked them.
Cosmic Callings spin from their PR agents.
Interestingly, Arsenio is back on the air, 2013!
Joe Burkle His show was cancelled immediately, it was a rehash of his old show.
Great performance, but omg the interview is a snoozer! Leno, Letterman, Kilborne, Kimmel, or Ferguson could've done a better job. What's w/Arsenio? I've seen him do better interviews.
johnnyaxe88 Joan Rivers did a better job interviewing them.
Even Conan did a better interview with them when they came back in the '00s
they definitely werent a flash in the pan

damm! Suzanna plays a tele! What's about her Ricken???
axel8591 the orange tele was her main guitar during the Everything tour. I didn't notice her back with Rickenbacker until her solo tour.

Micheal is the prettiest in the group not Suzanna
Bangle Baby Year has long since past. They had children at different times.
Sho' does like dem wite wimmenses
Black man's lucky day - four white girls.
Arsenio didn't last long, he was doing his old show rather than keep up with the times.
That was the worst interview ever.
Was Arsenio having a bad day?
A.. .bad day? He had a LOT of them. Terrible interviewer.
