Back in the 1990.s, when this song was big on MTV, girls asked me for translation from english to serbian. And...They "stayed with me". ❤ So, i have really good teenager's memorys on this song.😏 Anyway, i love your reaction and hello from Serbia 🇷🇸!💓💓💓
Hi Polo, thank you so much for playing my request. I thought you might like the video as well as the song, as it's a bit quirky. The two ladies in the video are Siobhan Fahey (ex-singer from the girl group Bananarama) and Marcella Detroit. Siobhan is Irish and Marcella is American. This Song was released in 1992. Apparently, Siobhan Fahey (the lady who comes on later in the video) drank a bottle of Vodka whilst waiting to come on and sing her part. I guess that partly explains her "manic" expressions! Loved your reaction, thumbs up from me and thanks again.
Well back then females (and males) had talent and there was an industry, though it was waning considerably by 1992, now it's just a black hole and cesspit of shite for pointless slaves to the mass-produced garbage spewing out of corporate factories instead of where talent should come from.
"Common People" from Pulp is another 90's gem that many people in the States may not be familiar with. Definitely worth a reaction. I highly recommend the full length album version and not the shortened, censored, music video... though the video is definitely cheesy.
If memory serves me, they had another really good song called "Hello (turn your Radio on)". Thank you very much, I always enjoy your reactions and thoughts. Have a great day!
No, they had loads of good and great ones from their debut album BEFORE 'Stay' and the follow-ups were done. 'Goodbye Cruel World' the ignored 1st single from album 2 is especially good. 'Hello' is simply another class one and there was more to come, on the album, as B-sides and ongoing albums, even though Marcella "had to leave", though they are now back together finally.
Fun fact: the second singer was drunk during the recording, which is why she was stumbling around. The first singer's part took so long to record that she went to go drink. They called for her while she was still sloshed.
This is such a beautiful song, and a surprise for everyone who sees the video for the first time, when death comes in. It has that 90's cheese layer that doesn't diminish the beauty or the power of the music, and everything combined makes for a music video that is hard to forget.
Oh this was fun. I loved that you paused it (unknowingly) just before the serious weirdness kicks in and said, "Well, the video's kind of weird" and I was laughing, thinking, "Oh, just wait..." LOL! Say, if you ever want to hear a bright, beautiful 80s hit that's kind of a One Hit Wonder, check out Steve Forbert "Romeo's Tune." The piano is gorgeous, his voice is kind of weird and smokey, and it's my favorite song of all time (Well, tied with Manfred Mann's "For You."
It's a great additional wit in a great video for a song that's all been lacking wholeheartedly in the long dead industry. That's the 80s dying for you and the ongoing horror of slagdonna, S/A/W, c/rap and everything rotten happening ever since.
haha loved this song, the "weird" one was Siobhan a member of the girl group Banarama - and those women could drink haha (that was back in the 80s) 😂🎉🎶🇬🇧
Makes me sad, thinking of my "baby" brother who we lost end of January this year. He was bathed by his partner in his final days and hours. Also he loved this song and had the album.
Don't you dare, there's a million things from the 80s, and a few from the 90s to do before this thing even considered, even though it's by far his best one, not that that gets it far.
"Shakespeare In Love" (1998) is a romantic comedy starring Joseph Fiennes and Gwyneth Paltrow and won 7 Academy Awards including Best Picture, so is a must see if Polo hasn't yet seen it.
The year before i went to the army, girlfriends aplenty, puppy love, fighting, drinking, partying, freedom. Incredible time. I was waiting for life to start, and there i was in the prime of it.
They were a great group. Check out 'I don't care'.. and in thier 2019 reunion, they do a spoof song of this song. Soon after this song (stay) the band split up, but the girls got back together again for a reunion album in 2019.
Great reaction Polo!! I LOVED this song when it came out (and 1992 was the year, so good call! Yes - cheese was ALL over the videos - and we ate it all up!) The character of 'death' is Siobhan Fahey, an original founding member of the 80's group Bananarama - where you might have heard Cruel Summer, or their cover of Venus. Cheers!!
Rounding the circle, Siabhan (Death) was married to Dave Stewart, who was part of the Pop Duo The Tourists, who became The Eurythmics. Annie Lenox (who you have Reacted to) was the other half of the Duo with Dave. Siabhan was part of Bananarama. And the guy on the table was boyfriend of one of the other members of Bananarama.
@@PacificJoe that's right. And Dave's collaboration with Terry Hall on "She" (with Charles Aznavour's cameo in video) had me in tears first time I saw it, with Terry's delivery. (Felt like one of those sad clown inputs in Operettas). Dave was far reaching at that time.
Siobhan Fahey She was from the girl group call Bananarama as a pop dance song and she out to be herself with Marcella Detroit who was work with Eric Clapton, Siobhan she open her as a duo with a huge different styled as before.
The second one "a great performer" was famously extremely drunk, she'd been waiting around all day whilst the first lady did her takes and got bored and ended up with many a vodka but the director went with it and thank god he did, this music video wouldnt have half the impact without this performance, meant to be lol
Siobhan Fahey (don't make me swear I'm spelling her name right) was definitely eccentric. This is the only song featuring (can't remember her first name) Detroit as lead singer. The band was originally just lady death there, trying to get away from her image as a singer in Bananarama. Useless facts inserted. I actually really liked this album.
Siobhan (death) was in Bananarama ❤ Marcella, the lead on this, took part in an U.K. show Popstar to Opera Star. She’s incredible. It was the 90s. Videos are cheesy lol
for some reason this reminded me of a really great performance/song called 'fake monk' by hua chenyu. Its just him and a piano playing live, but he gets right into a character and puts the old shivers up the spine :)
I remember this! The second chic is like supposed to be a deity who is trying to challenge the grieving chic in like a battle of wills over that dudes life! Yeah it was pretty deep back in the day!
Think it's to do with good Vs evil and love and trust me Manson is in a league of his own the girl with black hair walking down the stairs she really normal in real life and the girl with short back hair is a trained classic singer
At the time, it was crazy that Siobhan went from Bananarama to this. Incidentally, at the time, you could buy pre-mixed bananarama cocktails from the off-licence. They were great! 🤪🍸
Sorry if you've done it already, but take a look at "This Woman's Work" by Kate Bush. All of her stuff is great but that really tugs on the heart strings. It's written from the perspective of a man anxious about his partner giving birth. It's powerful storytelling, much like all of her stuff. Also do "Wuthering Heights". Also, "Running Up That Hill". God, just do Kate Bush 😅
It's actually a rather psychotic form of love that keeps you chained. "You can only think of me". I love the song, but since I've been with a narcissist my view changed
If you're gonna go down a cool 90's female rabbit hole, please please please listen to "Heal it up" by Concrete Blonde! Johnette Napolitano is my favorite female voice of all time!
My take on Shakespears sister= Marcella the first vocalist has an amazing voice and unusual clear as a bell tone. Siobhan the second vocalist, was ex bananarama and has a lower, less unique sound to her voice, and does not really sing but talks her way through. But Siobhan always had some sort of weird intangeable star quality. I was always intigued by her when she performed in early Bananarama and Shakespears sister. Its not always about having a brillant singing voice. Just ask Kylie and Jennifer Lopez!
I can never get sick of this song and watching folks reactions to it feeds my soul
This song was HUGE in the UK in 1992. Number one for 8 weeks. It also won the Brit Award for Best video.
It was huge in the US as well.
@@TacomaGirl Well they have to get something right now and again, God knows its so little.
I love when the second vocalist comes in and you're like "oh, this is a whole movie now."
Back in the 1990.s, when this song was big on MTV, girls asked me for translation from english to serbian. And...They "stayed with me". ❤ So, i have really good teenager's memorys on this song.😏 Anyway, i love your reaction and hello from Serbia 🇷🇸!💓💓💓

The freaky deaky early 90s. Honestly, female singers had some bangers back in the day.

I was a high school boy when this came out and not afraid to say it still is one of my favorite tracks of that time.
came here to say the same ;)

Still have the CD, I’m gonna have to put it on the boombox. I bought the CD after my cassette melted.
@@jeanine6328I have it too. Hormonally Yours I believe it's called

Showed the video to my 5 year old granddaughter. It was her favorite song for about 6 months. She liked the death's angel character.
I first heard this song when I was like 12 years old. It always stuck with me and I revisit it every 5 or so years for the last 30 years.
Fun fact: the second singer was drunk during the recording, which is why she was stumbling around. The first singer's part took so long to record that she went to go drink. They called for her while she was still sloshed.
Love this song and the performances are outstanding!
Siobhan, who plays death, famously got pretty trashed waiting to film her part in this video. 😂
That's hilarious. The crotch thrust kills me every time.
Yup, she hit the Vodka.She credits it as producing her ',full deranged splendour', as she put it.😁
Saw Prince in Glasgow early 90s and they were the support 👍
This is such a beautiful song, and a surprise for everyone who sees the video for the first time, when death comes in. It has that 90's cheese layer that doesn't diminish the beauty or the power of the music, and everything combined makes for a music video that is hard to forget.

The eye roll from Death was like “fine, you can have him…but I’ll still win in the end.”
It's a great additional wit in a great video for a song that's all been lacking wholeheartedly in the long dead industry. That's the 80s dying for you and the ongoing horror of slagdonna, S/A/W, c/rap and everything rotten happening ever since.

I can't express just how much Shakespears Sister helped me through my late teenage years. Please react to more of their music.
The second girl was quite drunk when she did this. There was so much waiting around she had a tipple or two😅😅😅
This song means a lot to me. It’s extremely evocative and it touches me deeply.
I've heard this song tons of times(radio listens) , I never knew the name of the band was Shakespeare's Sister
Makes me sad, thinking of my "baby" brother who we lost end of January this year. He was bathed by his partner in his final days and hours. Also he loved this song and had the album.
“ The eye roll “ from Siobian playing the angel of death , saying I’ll get both of you later anyway 🥴🤣.
Haa! Love it!!😅😅😆😆🤣🤣😋😋
This is two singers one was in Bananarama English band....
You would love "Come Back and Stay" by Paul Young
Don't you dare, there's a million things from the 80s, and a few from the 90s to do before this thing even considered, even though it's by far his best one, not that that gets it far.

I was waiting for life to start, and there i was in the prime of it.
Wow, I remembered loving this song in the early 90s.
Never heard another peep from them.
They were a great group. Check out 'I don't care'.. and in thier 2019 reunion, they do a spoof song of this song. Soon after this song (stay) the band split up, but the girls got back together again for a reunion album in 2019.
This song has also been stuck in my head from when I first heard it …a random hit that sticks with you!
I was 19 when this released and I've always had a soft spot for it.
Siobhan fahey was drunk I believe in this video and was generally mad as a box of frogs.
First time I heard this was right now. Both excellent singers. This song is deep and bit creepy. Weird as that is, I really like it.
Great reaction Polo!! I LOVED this song when it came out (and 1992 was the year, so good call! Yes - cheese was ALL over the videos - and we ate it all up!)

Siabhan was part of Bananarama. And the guy on the table was boyfriend of one of the other members of Bananarama.
Don't forget before Annie Lennox, Dave Stewart's partner was Barbara Gaskin and they released a killer remake of It's Your Party.
@@PacificJoe that's right. And Dave's collaboration with Terry Hall on "She" (with Charles Aznavour's cameo in video) had me in tears first time I saw it, with Terry's delivery. (Felt like one of those sad clown inputs in Operettas). Dave was far reaching at that time.
"You're History" & "I Don't Care" are also 🔥
Polo: "It's a little weird but you know"
the song: "hold my straitjacket"
Siobhan Fahey She was from the girl group call Bananarama as a pop dance song and she out to be herself with Marcella Detroit who was work with Eric Clapton, Siobhan she open her as a duo with a huge different styled as before.
LOL it does have an 80s feel, you're right.
the struggle between life and death.. fighting death to stay alive is what the song is about.
I haven't heard this either. Gaga grew up on this.stuff.lol
Beautiful video .. the woman of Death (siobhan) was actually drunk on set so it actually helped her 😊 x
Love this song ❤
I miss MTV.
There album Hormonally yours is one of my all time favourite it’s a must listen highly recommended 👍🏽
I really got into Shakespeare's Sister back then. Leonardo's Bride too.
The vid is meant to be a little tongue in cheek. Check out Marcella Detroit's song called Detroit. Marcella is the lead singer on this vid.
I am struggling to believe it, but marcella detroit was 40 years old in this video !
(She's 72 now)
I love Marcella Detroit's voice. ❤️
I would like to see you listen to Shakey Graves- "Roll the Bones"
The second one "a great performer" was famously extremely drunk, she'd been waiting around all day whilst the first lady did her takes and got bored and ended up with many a vodka but the director went with it and thank god he did, this music video wouldnt have half the impact without this performance, meant to be lol
YOU MUST LISTEN TO GHOST'S COVER OF THIS ONE! He did it with the guy who directed to last Insidious film.
"Marcella´s part is a little weird"
Siobahn: hold my beer.
Tose Proeski ( In Memoriam) - Zajdi Zajdi
Siobhan Fahey (don't make me swear I'm spelling her name right) was definitely eccentric. This is the only song featuring (can't remember her first name) Detroit as lead singer. The band was originally just lady death there, trying to get away from her image as a singer in Bananarama. Useless facts inserted. I actually really liked this album.
In the end though, death will come for them both, hence death's eyeroll. (The small details)...
Siobhan (death) was in Bananarama ❤
Marcella, the lead on this, took part in an U.K. show Popstar to Opera Star. She’s incredible.
It was the 90s. Videos are cheesy lol
for some reason this reminded me of a really great performance/song called 'fake monk' by hua chenyu. Its just him and a piano playing live, but he gets right into a character and puts the old shivers up the spine :)
It STAYED at number #1 forever.
I remember this! The second chic is like supposed to be a deity who is trying to challenge the grieving chic in like a battle of wills over that dudes life! Yeah it was pretty deep back in the day!
Dont know if you have yet but definitely recommend Zombie by the cranberries. Its about the irish civil war
The guy who "orchestrated" this piece is the same guy who pioneered Annie Lenox (The Eurythmics). He could certainly put together some real bangers!
Think it's to do with good Vs evil and love and trust me Manson is in a league of his own the girl with black hair walking down the stairs she really normal in real life and the girl with short back hair is a trained classic singer
I am not surprised c at at all, great music is great music.
Bonnie Tyler " Total eclipse of the heart"
👏👏👍👍
We all need a bit of corny in our lives 😂❤
At the time, it was crazy that Siobhan went from Bananarama to this.
Incidentally, at the time, you could buy pre-mixed bananarama cocktails from the off-licence. They were great! 🤪🍸

Another good song from them is “I Don’t Care”.
Don't know this one ❤ ain't no dancing to this one 😂 give grandma some Dwight ❤ fast as you please 🎉 ✌️ Polo...
Giving good hat today.
Thanks I love this song. 🙏🪷
It's actually a rather psychotic form of love that keeps you chained. "You can only think of me". I love the song, but since I've been with a narcissist my view changed
If you're gonna go down a cool 90's female rabbit hole, please please please listen to "Heal it up" by Concrete Blonde! Johnette Napolitano is my favorite female voice of all time!
Have you gone down the Korn rabbit hole yet?
How much do I need to pay for you to react to little man by atmosphere?
Im assuming youve done Sinead O'connor Nothing Compares to you. It will blow your mind
It took a few bottles of tequila for the vibe
It was vodka! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
that were 2 girls and they were before manson
The song was great. Wish i'd heard it without the video . The goofy video kind of killed it for me.
Nails on a chalkboard. Couldn't stay til the end.

I prefer Cradle of Filth's version of this song.
Haha! Great singing and music. The video... meh. 😊
aside you got the name wrong its shakespears sisters :)
Polo, there’s some weirdness going on in this comments section.
I think it's because I showed up.
Beautiful Singing!
You're not gonna look up Marilyn Manson?????
cut it off too early
This isn’t even the best song on the album. Cat woman from the moon. Trouble with Andre.
Didn't care for it...can't explain why but I'd change the radio station on this one.
I don't like her singing, Sounds like she needs to clear her throat and stop the shouting.
Shakspears sister,, yuk , it was free bird that made me notice your posts ,, so I was looking for more talent ,,,,,,, this isn't it 😏
I never liked this song. Cacophony. But not a good one
Boring as f lol
I am LOVING all your videos, man! I wanna be a creator like you when I grow-up.
As Stay is a love song, Polo give a listen to another by Kate Bush & Peter Gabriel called Don't Give Up.
