Can’t believe I just found out yesterday that she passed. Loved their music back in the day even though I was really into more progressive rock. She was a truly unique talent that I greatly admired, and I think they never really got their due as a band. I’m sure that she’s moved on to a much better place where she’s rocking out and kicking ass with the multitude of rock legends who’ve also passed on. Miss you Chrissy. Your absence leaves a hole that can never be filled.
I was very fond of a number of Aussie bands, thanks to Mtv, music magazines, etc., which allowed me access from the USA...INXS, The Church, Midnight Oil, AC/DC...🇦🇺
She always did a great show and loved the days I could watch her on a Sunday at the local for $5, beautiful Talented Show Girl Rocker, Standing at the stage at the left side speakers she would put me in another world.
I got to see Divinyls live in the US, a few years before they got big. I immediately went out & bought both their CDs. My favorite song of hers was, "I'm on your side". Miss you so much, Chrissy. You are one of a kind. Hope I see you where I'm going. 🌹🕊
Great tribute. A true Australian star, under rated and never appreciated enough in Australia. I was waiting to see a tribute on TV but it never happened. An original thinker, true talent, such a likable lady. They'll never be another Chrissy
I saw her for the Desperate tour. They were one of the few bands that sound better live than on their cd's. I am so glad I got to see her in concert. She will be missed, but her music will live on forever.
Well done! I remember a friend and I skipping work to drive 400 miles to go see them. Our boss was pissed....until he found out where we went. Then he was pissed that we didn't tell him and have him go with us. Who knew our boss was a Divinyls fan. Ah! The early 90's were so full of great music and memories.
That is an awesome story!! The '90s were just so great, carefree, easy. I remember winning a "BarBimbo" (ya I know pretty bad) contest when I danced to the Divinyls song "I Touch Myself". It was so much fun and so shocking to others that night!!!
When I saw Divinyls in 93 at the San Francisco Warfield she got down on floor during the song and rolled around touching herself BIG time. I'll never forget it.
Christie was a one off great vocalist raunchy ballsy Rock Queen our own Aussie icon sadly missed remembering nights at Selinas and Divinyls on stage great memories miss you babe
Chrissy will be sadly missed by the entire music industry the only good thing is now she not suffering anymore God Bless Prayers go out to Charlie Drayton and Chrissy's friends and Family, i will always remember the first time i heard her sing i had to goout and purchase the cassette that was out at the time. again my thoughts and prayers go out to all who enjoyed her music.
I just found out Chrissy died in 2013. I worked at the studio where they recorded the 1991 record. I will never forget the great fun and music. And Charley Drayton What an honor. And loss.
Chrissy had courage to really share with us what's on a girl's mind and what;s in her heart and soul. She gave so much in a performance. I was lucky enough to see her perform in the late 70's when I was very young. Thankyou Chrissy. R.I.P.
Chrissy has a way of becoming an instant rock legend for those previously unfamiliar with her music and are suddenly discovering what they've missed. I envy them, because they may be on the verge of a very pleasant epiphany. I love this album and have it, but I think the best place to start a Divinyls exploration is near the beginning with ''Desperate''...either album configuation.
Chrissy - I am only lonely and although it was only a casual encounter have felt pleasure and now pain you were such a wild thing who made me happy as were all the boys in town, I'm now jealous as you are a sleeping beauty because the good die young. Farewell Chriissy and may your memories live forever. U ROCK GIRL.
holy crapola,..2015 and this is only just news to me,..bad news at that,..my god I never had a clue,..really pissed me off that,..so R.I.P Chrissy,..will never be forgotten...
until the end of the show. She went an got the purse and gave it back to the irate one. It was the coolest thing to all of us who were watching. I think she curtsied the girl. What a great band and what a voice. She commanded the whole room. Ironically I had been listening and studying them every night and just finished a cover of "Back to the wall" and posted it on my page right before she left us. That show was at Caesar's Tahoe and one of the best shows ever. Maximum Respect
Oh wow I cant belive I didn't know this sooner I always thought she was awesome I was 14 when pleasure and pain came out I think she was my first love , well her or Dale Bozzio . I will miss you and crank your music in tribute for all to hear, if I can find a record player ...
Funny that a 14 year old Florida guy in the US, introduced to Divinyls through a friend from England, would be able to "be there" from the beginning, was given the Desperate album by my friend at that time, and I was mesmerized, Chrissy had such a deep impact on my early songwriting, (Started writing lyrical poetry when was 11). She was instantly an Idol of mine, we have the same color hair, and to this DAY I still wear my hair in the same style she did in the Desperate and What A Life era. (Actually works real well on a punk/pop, post-grunge skater boy...lol) I think I cried for a week on and off when she died. I still listen to her cds often and probably always will.
R.I.P. Chrissy.🕯
Vocalist and Woman, second to none. Great song choice. 🇦🇺
I didn't grow up with divinals but I still love the music
I hope Divinyls are remembered for more than, "I touch myself',,,their best music was released in the '80's,,,
I can't believe it's almost 10 years since she is gone!
@@georgemarwick2121rember we all my need music

In my eyes Chrissy is an Aussie rock legend, I feel privileged to have grown up with a lot of these Aussie bands in the 80s
I was very fond of a number of Aussie bands, thanks to Mtv, music magazines, etc., which allowed me access from the USA...INXS, The Church, Midnight Oil, AC/DC...🇦🇺

Beautifull Chrissy,rest in peace sweetie,loved you live at the Waikiki Hotel in Rockingham WA in 1990,sadly missed.
No one sings or sang like chrissy. Very unique voice and virtually impossible to immitate
I got to see Divinyls live in the US, a few years before they got big. I immediately went out & bought both their CDs. My favorite song of hers was, "I'm on your side".
Miss you so much, Chrissy. You are one of a kind. Hope I see you where I'm going. 🌹🕊
Great tribute. A true Australian star, under rated and never appreciated enough in Australia. I was waiting to see a tribute on TV but it never happened. An original thinker, true talent, such a likable lady. They'll never be another Chrissy
nick jones I just watched Tori Amos do a tribute to her and I was confused. What happened?!
Maybe not so much appreciated in Australia but for the rest of the world was one of the greatest. Especially the song "I touch myself" is legendary.
I saw her for the Desperate tour. They were one of the few bands that sound better live than on their cd's. I am so glad I got to see her in concert. She will be missed, but her music will live on forever.
gosh same age as me
Amen ✨💖

You're so right! One of the best eras EVER for music!!

A beautiful and talented woman. She now moves on to the next phase of her existence. I will miss her.

She always reminded me of my cousin in Melbourne so much. So sad. I can't believe she is gone so young. :(
I didn't know she died, so sad, such a big lost. RIP love the you and the band.

Thank you for the lovely tribute. Chrissy and the band were the soundtrack to my life for many, many years. Words cannot express :(
R.I P. Chrissy. I love the music that you have given us. I will never forget you.

WOW She is only 4 years older then me. I am shocked she is gone.
Lovely tribute to a great lady, cool choice of song, thanks!
Chrissy - I am only lonely and although it was only a casual encounter have felt pleasure and now pain you were such a wild thing who made me happy as were all the boys in town, I'm now jealous as you are a sleeping beauty because the good die young.

played bass behind her when the musician fell ill. Greatist gig I ever had. Chrissie and Deborah Conway were the best singers I ever played for.
I loved 'I touch myself' and didn't know she died. God so sad and sorry for being ignorant of that until now :(
The angels in heaven tremble at your approach
SO MISSED
Fan from 1980.
