The Best Front Women I've seen, she owned the stage and I Thank her Immensely for playing in my home town numerous times as we grew up in the 80,s and making my life so much more enjoyable. I bought every album , such an Intelligent beautiful talented person, RIP Beautiful Lady.
I found the Divinyls on accident. Back in 1984 on a late night show of foreign music acts. Her in a baby doll dress with ripped stockings and smeared lipstick, singing Boys In Town, I believe. I was done for. She was a force and her voice! So many dimensions! Rest well Crissy ❤️
I was an American living in Australia in 1980, and I saw them before they even recorded an album. They were awful, and fitted the Australian environment perfectly. An angry rock band with chips on their shoulders entertaining angry people with chips on their shoulders. I returned to the States in 1982, and saw the video for ''Boys In Town'' and ''Only Lonely'' on MTV, and thought to myself ''I can't even get away from this fcking band''.
@@drt162 if u felt that way why tf are u here commenting on one of their songs? Angry rock band playing to angry people and both had chips on their shoulders u say? It sounds to me like you're the one with a chip on his shoulder about Australian people because you're an uptight American who probably got too many knock backs while here.
Mark McEntee is a legend for supporting Chrissie and her vision, but I also think he was intelligent enough to see her potential, and they were quite a team. Thank you to them both for bringing us this wonderful experience that is the Divinyls. More power to him for letting her stand in her power. Mark really believed in her and was one of the only people who saw Chrissie for who she really was, even beyond the "rock star" potential and image. Oh, and I've got to say, Mark McEntee's guitar riffs are amazing..
She was an amazing person, an amazing singer and an incredible soul. There are so many women out there who are physically gorgeous but who have no idea how to actually be sexy, she could have given lessons on sex appeal because it just came naturally to her. What an amazing band and what an amazing front woman. Rest In Peace Chrissy, I'm forever a fan!
Chrissy could have verbally shredded this interviewer any time she wanted to,he had no leverage on this sweet little church choir rock and roll hall. She outclassed him big time. RIP Chrissy.
How much did Chrissy rise above the leud questions that the flaccid 60 Minutes 'journo' salivated over her...! All I can say...is she is one classy gal.....
What an appalling way to describe such an iconic woman. Typical 60 minutes garbage. Jeff McMullen is revolting here. Long live Chrissy Amphlett. What a goddess she was at a time where women in music were constantly repressed or mocked for being who they truly were. Actually...nothing much has really changed.
Yeah, the mainstream media in Australia never really had their finger on the pulse when it came to anything in the arts. She was an icon and respected all over the world as being one of the great frontwomen of all time. I remember hearing Cyndi Lauper and a few other huge stars gushing over her in interviews over the years. Her death was a huge loss to so many people, but the music will ensure she lives on forever.
She was also an amazing actress & theatre performer,she had the most amazing talent of conveying emotions through her singing & theatre art .she played Judy Garland in the boy from Oz,even hugh Jackmans intro presentation of her for an award left a lot to be desired.
I really admire Chrissy and Mark's patience in having to deal with such a patronising, condescending interview in the form of the fuddy-duddy McMullin and his inane line of questioning. It's very typical of not only the garbage that is 60 Minutes, but also all of the lamestream presenters on network television. I'm surprised any celebrity wastes their time on such programs.
They need to be inducted into the ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME!!! Great band, kick ass guitarists and then there is Chrissie….. one of the most over the top, SUPER SEX CHARGED FRONT WOMEN IN ROCK HISTORY!! With the band having a hit song “I touch myself” , a female singing it and that’s enough for a one way ticket to the Hall of Fame in Cleveland!
What is it with 60 min reporters always talking down to people ? They show no respect to those they interview .and this interview was no exception.chrissy deserved better treatment than what she got in this interview.
why would any self respecting individual appear on TV, 60 minutes is blatantly stupid obviously STATE/CROWN run propaganda. it’s not real journalism, truth to power.
Exactly. They know everything better....looking at everyone down....Not to mention Royals subject. Absolutely No1 could possibily have different opinion. That's so one sided- which is NOT what journalism about.
Never into this band but give all the band credit for sticking it out plus ANY band from the 80s blows the crap music of today out of the water. Bands had unique persona and the music was fresh unlike the rehashed cr+p of todays music.
There could never be another chrissie🎉 what a beautiful feminine intelligent artist, I miss her so much...I remember seeing her live in Tasmania when I was like 14...I'm 52 now and have never seen such prescence in a performer. Sadly missed and yeah, she was so dignified with ignorant 60 minute males 😂 poor bugger probably good with half part of a number plate 😂❤
LOVE them! But what a dumpster fire of an interview! That dude specializes in smug smirks for the camera & cliched, generic questions.. Actually-he should work on MTV! 😏
@UCesmxlp1-nUvtTrKmPxQc7Q agreed, no comparison at all. To do so is such an insult to Chrissy... im sure she would be appalled to be compared to such a piece of shit..
@@porkhunt6030 I'm not comparing them as women or artists, I'm comparing the times we live in and the outlook of the music business. Yes, Cardi B is no talent trash. Chrissy was a dynamic and talented performer, singer and songwriter.
Paula Connolly and me, Poneke , loved Mark and Chrissy and Marks old lady at Fairlight Manly .life's good ....sun baking with lillywhite Chrissy?! Days of Gold! In Oz.! On Fairlight beach.
❤❤❤❤❤Chrissy's just the perfect sexual stage beast❤❤❤❤❤❤the Iggy Pop of female rock music. The only Aussie female rocker that comes anywhere near her musical talent and prowess is Suze de Marchi of Baby Animals ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤RIP baby 😢😢
You're selling Mark a bit short there. He was a huge part of the creativity of the Divinyls music. Sure, guiter players are replacable, if that's all they are. This was not the case.
‘What a life!’ Is my favourite album. Love the divinyls. Still have them all on cassette and vinyl. but not a fan of ‘I touch myself’… I think MOST got the wrong meaning of the song . Including myself. Even though the song was so popular, they had so many better ones. Hated that song and still do. 🤮 it took away her power. To me anyway. 🥲

As an Aussie who was almost an adult in Sydney when the Divinyls kicked off, this is a really great comment to read

Condescending interview by McMullen. She was a trailblazer and a remarkable artist
Agree %100
Introduced to you and your excellent band in 1982 and have been smitten with that trademark raspy voice and your beauty.Love and miss you Chrissy.
Divinyls always spark such good memories..❤❤❤
RIP Chrissy, the Queen of OZ Rock.
The questions from 60 minutes are so juvenile 😂

Can't watch 60 minutes of propaganda..biggest propaganda show on msm
Was there ever a worse interviewer than Jeff McShithouse?
35 years ago 29 Jan 1991 Divinyls released self-titled album. RIP Chrissy Amphlett.
Fantastic female Aussie Artist.. so sad she is no longer here.. love her music. ❤

I First Discovered Dyvinals, in the Movie, “Monkey Grip”, Read the Book and watched the Movie, Got the Album, Fantastic, Loved it … 1982 …🌈🇦🇺💜🥃
I found them around between 1986 and 1988. I was in middle school. I owned their music on cassette.

Someone who slags :D
Can’t believe that’s the year I did the HSC
9:54 - Chrissy Amphlett and Mark McEntee were romantically involved from 1982 to 1993
She was a special girl. It's sad that she was taken at such a young age.
LOVE them! But what a dumpster fire of an interview! That dude specializes in smug smirks for the camera & cliched, generic questions.. Actually-he should work on MTV! 😏
Male 60 Minutes reporters are always so sleazy and overfamiliar
You gotta do what you do, that said it all Chrissie, not followers but leaders in our incredible Oz Rock history
Love Chrissy she was great, wonderful as judy Garland in The Boy from Oz at the theater
The word bathroom was risqué LOL
What a joke, especially when their talking touching one's self.
Chrissie was a spunk
I never liked this interviewer from 60 minutes and still don't.
We got Cardi B now, Chrissy is like G Rated stuff these days. I still love The Divinyls music though.

Took a leaf from Angus Young, s book.
Sadly, here in North America, they're pretty much considered "one hit wonders". Unfortunate given their collective body of work.
@fc7424 Agreed. Bloody shame really mate.
Yep they had some ripper albums !! Desperate was a gem , so was What a life . They were just dynamic . So proud of them and Chrissie

@@brin57 You're a gentleman Brian, and you're spot on with your assessment.
Chrissy and Mark were the Australian version of Jagger and Richards
when someone says "end of story" .. you know it's not
He wrote most of the hits! 😂😂😂
really i can do that.....
This interview is so shit and so debased. Chrissie seems to navigate it well, but it's gutter journalism and it doesn't even approach rock journalism.
Early divinyals were the best ..90s touch myself stuff ...meh
The attitude of this interviewer has not aged well.
Journalist was an absolute rude prick.
‘What a life!’ Is my favourite album. Love the divinyls. Still have them all on cassette and vinyl. but not a fan of ‘I touch myself’… I think MOST got the wrong meaning of the song .
