I wonder how much Dave's input with Shakespears Sister, and his having pushed Marcella forward in specific ways, contributed to his and Siobhan's eventual divorce.
Yeah-and how sad that so many regard that girl group as something other than it is. It was one of the fluffiest unchallenging and repetitive things to come out of the 80s and be so remembered for being something it's not. But then look at Minogue-hell Madonna!!
@@jackchadwick9824 Banarama started out edgy and cool. You're surely mixing them up with Bangles. Began edgy and cool? That's like something Wham are as politically aware as The Beat!
+Chelsea Thompson Indeed. Without Marcella's writing and voice, those two albums would have been very different. They certainly would not have had a #1 hit for 8 weeks.
the things what makes me sad it's that she's on drugs. and that they broke up too! I mean Marcy and she, they should stay together. And still making Music. I really wish I would know why the heck they spilt up!
@@shuvling It's usual board room crap. The label telling lies and pitting them against each other, just like the wankers did to the Bangles, bu these women fall for it every time. As if they get enough chances in the first place.
I love SS's music with Marcella loads more than I like their music without her. However, I'm endlessly obsessed with Siobhan. She's fascinating. She always seems so incredibly unhappy in interviews. Watching this one in particular gave me anxiety, as she comes off as so uncomfortable and nervous.
Shes quite temperamental i think - i don't think she easy going - Pete Waterman always said she was the worst - she's suffered quite bad with mental health
@@lexkanyima2195 Like he did to the music industry-mostly bad things. Eurythmics released so many ugly singles and most of their stuff is ordinary anyway, yet they get hailed as being amazing! He also helped Stevie Nicks make the most appalling, ghastly and God-awful album of her career.
@@kyachdistent1301 Eurythmics released ugly singles? LOL, no they didn't -- they were brilliant. Just because you don't like Dave because he and Siobhan didn't last is irrelevant to the music. Dave Stewart is a brilliant musician whether you like him personally or not, and Siobhan was an adult who could make her own decisions, and a few of those decisions were unfortunate. That's not Dave's fault.
@@WithaJoeFro Err yes they did. As one Trouser Press critics expertly put it back in 1985: "the horrible, monotonous, repetitive, dirge song otherwise ironically called 'Sweet Dreams' is their 1st, that clumsy, stupid, mismatched, dopily sung 'right By Your Side', the vile ugly cackling mad 'Sisters Doin' It' garbage, the utterly risible too-ugly-even-to-progress beyond a demo 'Missionary Man', the irritating, stop-start aggravation of 'Sexcrime' (music crime more like) and the bland, spiritless 'When Tomorrow Comes' and the turgid un-angelic 'Angel'. Even that other one 'Angel Playing With My Heart', while not ugly, is embarrassing. Their choruses often just consist of one line repeated 4x and there's a complete basic-ness to so many of their songs. Their best stuff are the few singles over-looked, or the few album things that would have been better choices than what they did release. Obviously you're a fan, but I don't mince words on overrated acts, critics do not sway me. If something is bad, it's bad, and Eurythmics can be very bad indeed. In fact, for such an esteemed act, they seem to have a bad release from almost every album! Dave Stewart is NOT a brilliant musician, if he was, he would not keep making songs this bad so regularly. That's a PROFFESIONAL opinion, not a personal one, don't be so silly. You're the one being personal, pretending it is when it's not, and you're going by how you feel about this overrated act. It seems to me Siobhan's marriage to him was the unfortunate decision. Though I do grant you that the song that Ms Lennox (who must take enough of the blame for these Eurythmics balls-ups) did with Elvis Costello and the one with Stewart on vocals (rare for him) would make better singles than ones that did come of their respective albums. Only album got all the single right and that was "Savage" from 1987, and even then, her silly need to over-sing and be over-theatrical and over-enunciate instead of singing a thing properly like her contemporaries did like Kim Wilde, Sandra, Toyah, Sade, Pat Benatar, Kate Bush etc. tends to ruin a song that even does well, which it did with the end of the 1st single from this album. Hands-down, 'Don't Ask Me Why' is their best song all-round. Charming, memorable, sung properly and don't outstay its welcome. Dave Stewart's shortcomings shown up again on the dreadful Stevie Nicks album of 2011. Again, most of the album being abysmal is down to her being past her prime and rehashing lousy old ideas into an even worse result, but his presence did help make a bad bad album even worse. All her albums before had better producers like Rick Nowels and it showed.
Like Siobhan I'm just being honest and Marcy is a much better singer and musician than Siobhan which is probably why Siobhan's ego was hurt. In the end Siobhan let her ego ruin Shakespear's Sister just at the point when it could have turned into a bigtime group. Notice the one song being played during this interview is their biggest hit which largely featured Marcy's vocals.
She looks like an angry washed out woman, so her looks seem very authentic to her dialogue. Siobhan was beautiful in Bananarama, had a brilliantly clever band with Shakespears Sister, then ruined it because she couldn't handle sharing the spotlight or Marcy getting credit for Stay being their most popular song. Ego can be an ugly thing, and she looks like a woman whos ego got the best of her here.
@@hereforever6091 i fell down a Bananarama rabbit hole and watched loads of interviews. She's always been like this with ticks and at times an awkward way of speaking. i think it's nerves, but now i've see lots of interviews it's just the way she is. She is an extremely creative person.
@@ProblematicTube cool - unfortunately for me I only seen 2 videos of her interviews so I really don't anything to go by but glad to hear that she's back making music ( last year I believe)
Are you joking! Who the hell are they? Oh, two backing singers for Prince?! You're calling them artists and comparing them?! That's like comparing a skoda to a merc, surely, apart from the fact skodas are better known and have lasted for far longer, and even managed to improve over time.
No, it was far more than that. The typical label got frightened and started pitting them against each other, with each imparting a lackey to pour destructive lies into their ears. I do think Siobhan is paranoid about things and insecure sometimes, and often doesn't seem to know who her friends are. She was big before that, but being the only truly individual one from a fluffy manufactured girl group with an equally silly name isn't too much cause to get the real Queens of the 80s and beyond any cause for sleepless nights-until she and Marcy teemed up. It's people that always go for one song over another without any logic. 'Stay' is not the best thing they ever did, nor is it the best thing on the album either.
@@camdenroad44Of course it is, but for anyone to act like 'Stay' is their never equalled masterpiece is every bit as nonsensical as calling 'Eternal Flame' that for the Bangles-with neither clearly being true.
Spot on. It's sad that she was her most unhappy when SS was just taking off commercially in the states. She could have had a longterm groundbreaking, hall of fame level band but ego kicked in and ruined it. It's too bad because Siobhan has a striking quality about her, maybe even more striking because of her insecurity.
His pace is just as annoying as Siobhan's dandruff struggles. Marcy 50% of what made the band so alluring and she was talented obviously, but she was brought in not the conceptual starter. DS to me was not the right one for her...wish it was me Ha!
Seemed anxious like Dave from Depeche Mode similar types with issues..She ended up turning rock like him. very lucky to be well connected. Bananrama/Eurythmics husband and other stuff plus Shakespear's sister.
I love her no matter what 😩❤
Siobhan Fahey's eye roll at the end of the song is everything.
Siobhan fahey is beautiful
shakesper sister are so amazing
I wonder how much Dave's input with Shakespears Sister, and his having pushed Marcella forward in specific ways, contributed to his and Siobhan's eventual divorce.
It was forced fed
I love her
and you did become a great song writer siobhan,thank ; thank God she left Bananarama

Why do they start playing the song in the background of the interview 😂😂😂😂😂
This is hard to watch. you can see the bottom about to drop out.
Not a one of us can cast a stone and say she's on drugs..she's tweekin...when did u guys become God or monsters
Hmmm which one has the best voice ?
Marcella one can listen to for a tiny while... .... so Siobhan ... you can at least listen to an entire album!!
You can't compare their voices.
The irony is that she was only wildly successful because of Marcella's lead vocal on Stay, and she couldn't handle that.
Agree. I do love her, though...

As shown in this interview.
