Here's my video I did on another female fronted group The Cranberries ua-cam.com/video/HeF7aYQinRY/v-deo.html
COULD YOU PLEASE CUT OUT THAT FUCKING BACKGROUND MUSIC, MAN???!!
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
That guns and roses vs Nirvana video was so good.
I heard Jack white wouldn't let the black keys into his studio. More information on that would interest me.
@@fuqupal I'm chuckling because I have felt that same way about the background music.
@@noahanderlick5707 Perhaps he was in the middle of recording and didn't want to be interrupted?
@@twistoffate4791Nope
What happened? Nothing! They are still killing it today! ❤️🔥
And they still need their day jobs! Get off their dicks if u cant make a living your gone!! What good does it do making records if they cost more money than they earn you??
Yes!!! 🔥🔥
Sick bastard you are...
Mostly accurate- i being from Madison as a local musician and actually assisting spooner as a drum roadie for a few shows. These are great memories riding on a school bus to a few gigs with the band truly paying serious bumpy dues listening to the band talk and plan ahead including Doug and Butch. Even then they were driven, totally hooked into the business of music and networking from my view and brief interaction. They were submitting demos , doing live simulcast on Fm and doing showcases. They self produced records . Key
Lesson is never giving up , relentless pursuit of a goal and sticking together. And yes luck is a big factor as well but mostly drive is number 1 success attribute imho. The three guys have been together at least 40 years probably longer . Now I’m a fan and enjoy concerts and I keep writing and recording myself but when I see them I feel so proud and have that special Madison connection from the roadie gig and my band recording and mixing at smart later, right around the smashing pumpkins days. They stay fresh keep writing and success continues.
Exactly.
I saw them play Voodoo Fest in New Orleans in the very early 2000s. When they started “I’m Only Happy When It Rains”, the sky opened up and *poured*. Incredible. Crowd went nuts. Shirley even commented on how cool of a moment is was.
I love that they owned Shirley being a sex-symbol. She absolutely was.
What happened to Garbage?? They kept killing it over and over and their new album rocks!
Shirley is still one of my rock goddesses. I love pale skinned women, redheads, Scottish accents and talent so I really melted as a teenager the first time I saw her
I like mine skinned clean too. I'm a red meat g.... Oh sorry you said Pale Skinned
Shirley Manson always seemed like she'd be a pretty fun and exciting person to hang around with. She never seemed to take herself too seriously. Her personality really showed when she was on Craig Ferguson's show several times. She's a goofy ginger!
I grew up on Garbage, Hole, Fiona Apple and No Doubt. As I got older I always appreciated the sounds of Garbage. Manson's voice is so beautiful. One of my favorite bands always❤
Absolutely me too Hun I'm in my 40s now I was in high school those were the days of course I was a punk goddess who also listened to Stone Temple Pilots and John Waite and The Pretenders and Blondie and The Clash amongst other stuff❤️💓🤗💖😇 like Cheap Trick and Joe Jackson and The Police and Neneh Cherry a comical genius you go girl
FIONAS Still getting better. never lets me down, Courtney Love Chased Away or Killed her song writers
I'm addicted to some of their songs, especially Milk
I was addicted to them to when I was a KID. As in, as a KID my mind saw it differently than what it's intentions were about. The music, clothes, color, design etc got me distracted from the REAL MEANING OF THE WORDS. I tell the kids now, don't see what I thought I saw as I was still evolving and always will be. The music world is a different reality as it's a different Job*. It's a JOB that THEY wanted to pursue. They wanted to express their feelings where as others just wanted 'fame' (what they had thought the world of fame was to be like*)
Abigail I feel you! Fabulous music,Headed by incredible Women!I Am Doll Parts!
I had the pleasure of sitting with Shirley at a party one night after the Scottish Style Awards. She was extremely humble, and incredibly interested in just having a good chat. It was special. She was very inquisitive and asked me all kinds of questions. About my art practice, about my tattoos, all sorts of stuff. If I asked her anything, you know as one does in conversation, she brushed it off and just got back to asking me more questions. It was honestly a really memorable moment because she could easily have hung out with anyone else that night, there were plenty of famous artists and musicians around, but she just sat on a couch and we had a really nice evening chatting.
They still play, still tour. A couple of months ago they opened for Alanis Morrissette. Was an amazing concert (my friend went and I missed it!!! UGH!)
I saw that exact show (Alanis/Garbage) in like 1998, lol!
Would've been good if it hadn't been with Alanis. I didn't go bc of that.
Yeah, I saw them both just a few months ago in Dallas. It was a good show, but I think I’m officially middle aged.
Saved me 20 minutes lol thanks gonna have to dig my old cds out loft 👍
If you didn’t go how can you say it was an amazing concert
I loved their theme song for 007 The World is Not Enough (probably the second best Brosnan era theme behind Goldeneye).
I liked that song(and the cool musicvideo) a lot too.
It’s such a good song!
It's Garbage with orchestra, so great... the theme from "Goldeneye" was not a big hit and Sheryl Crow's "Tomorrow Never Dies" is so boring! Garbage song was a huge hit and a great song.
I remember hearing the song "Milk" from their first album and thinking it sounded like a James Bond song then a couple years later "The World is Not Enough" came out.
It was a awesome vid.
im seeing Garbage with Noel Gallagher next month, they are both still killing it on stage ♥️
Going to that show too, in MI. I was looking for Metric shows and saw they were opening for Garbage. Instantly a shut up and take my money moment.
My absolute favourite band of all time. They definitely seemed to disappear but that's more to them always going their own way rather than trying to cater to trends or bland mass appeal.
They're still hard working and incredibly humble if you ever get the chance to meet them. Also there aren't many bands these days out there that haven't had a single line up change.
SOOO HAPPY they got back together, even if only for a little while. Shirley and the rest of the band are just so unique, enjoyable, and something EVERYONE NEEDS!!!! From day one, I've absolutely LOVED Garbage. Still play it, not everyday of course, but, YOU WILL NEVER HEAR ANYTHING LIKE THEM ANYWHERE!!!! AND THEY'RE FRIGGIN' AWESOME!!!! PERIOD!!!
One of the best bands of the '90s! I can still relate to their music, & Shirley Manson always has been, & still is, absolutely freakin' gorgeous! She just doesn't seem to age!
Misogyny alert 🚨
@@MrShanester117 how is that misogyny, he's only saying that she still looks great all these years later. She was a sex symbol back in the day (Shirley struggled with that as she always thought she was ugly)Are you a millennial? Cause they lead the way in being offended by every single comment ever made.
@@davekennedy6315 Yeah, that's not misogyny at all. And to be honest, Shirley would probably look back now and think that being in the spank bank of so many boys and men of the 90s is fucking hilarious.
@@CB-ke7eq Uh-huh-huhuhuh-uhhuh. You said "spank bank," huh-huh-huhuh-huh. -- Butthead, 2021.
@@CB-ke7eq 'spank bank' haha! I don't see anything wrong with any of this, if I'd ever been a subject of mass fantasy by loads of women I'd be proud of that till my dying day.
Their self titled pink album was the first rock album I ever owned at 12. They are and always have been one of the greats in my alt world.
They're still around and i'm happy they're still making new music. The only thing i'm missing is actually going out to buy their cds because physical media is no longer a thing in our area.
They had a 7 year hiatus to try other projects. They are still very active and in my honest opinion-----relevant...still putting out kick ass music.
another Killdozer album would be great
@@MrTaxiRob ??????
@@elbosausage Vig was the drummer for Killdozer
@@elbosausage you're a fan of the band but haven't checked out ALL their other projects? Why not??
@@MrTaxiRob i try and stay on top of it wether its an album Butch produced or his former bands Spooner, Firetown, rectal drip....and with Shirley i love Goodbye Mr.Mackenzie and Angelfish...i will def check out the suggestion. I was confused if you were asking something or if a comment got misplaced. Thanks for clarifying..
Supervixen was my jam back in the days!
Such an underrated band
version 2.0 is such a solid album!, I remember watching "push it" video on MTV when I was a kid, that was a sick video, loved it ever since, been a fan since then.
I remember a friend of mine playing Garbage's debut album while we were on a mini-road trip and I was immediately hooked and have loved everything they've produced ever since.
I’m super curious to know why you think anybody wants to know about your mini road trip. That’s so weird to me
@@MrShanester117 I'm curious as to why you took time away from your meal of crayons and turpentine to type that inane message. That's weird to me.
@@CommodoreFloopjack78 You should apologize for sharing your personal anecdote! That shit doesn't fly in 2021.
@@Glurbschnurb Well, I thought reading that would be a nice distraction from your Dr. Seuss books. Just trying to help, you know?👍
@@CommodoreFloopjack78 I don't read that bigoted garbage. Reading too much in general is dabbling in the occult.
Their debut album is in my top 10 albums of all time. I love every song on it.
They haven't gone anywhere. They're still making great albums and touring constantly
I saw Garbage open up for the Smashing Pumpkins in 96. They were awesome live.
Happy when it rains is a very underrated song.
It's their biggest hit, everyone just listen to it and "Stupid Girl" most of the time. Stop using that word like an illiterate.
Lol. Are you for real?
@@redacted2275 I know it..under/over rated is sickening it's used so much..how can these people not see how stupid they sound?
26 million views ok
Weird title.. as if they disappeared. 7th album was released this year, and maybe one of their best. Check it out.
Yeah, and contantly posting updates, short videos, interacting with the fans overall all the time, AND promoting tours and the amazing new album. Garbage isn't just some faded 90's fascination. I understand there are a lot of people who don't like how they experiment, but denying they still exist is... I don't know. I didn't even know about them in the 90's, and I was born in 92, and only in 2005 did I see the video from then new album on the TV and fell in love with the band and started following them.
9:50 “ … lied to the band saying she was a writer “
11:30…” another characteristic of hers that stood out to the group …. Her honesty…” 😂🤷♂️
Lol 😂
maybe because she had to be honest after the lie xD
Fake it til you make it
True
@@citizenbobx lmao 🤣
I still love them. And am happier when it rains.
I just saw them in concert in Aug 2022. They were awesome. Love then!
They took a five year hiatus, but have been back since 2012. One of my favorite bands. Have never stopped buying their music.
She's not the only one happy when it rains. ☔
Ooh, you’re so edgy
i just saw them in concert a few months back they are amazing
Thanks SO much for this! Shirley was a role model for me, and I loved their music! I loved learning more about everyone in the band too! There is SO much behind the scenes we don't know, and that the stuff I love to hear about! So, thanks for another fantastic video!
There is no doubt that Garbage is my favorite band of all time.
This was my band growing up. I had all their albums including b-sides.
Love Garbage, one of my favourite bands hands down! Follow them on social media and they are very much always touring and coming out with new music.
Knew her in High school, in Edinburgh, Scotland, early 80's. She was pretty punky even back then.
Garbage got a raw deal from the Music studio. Classic story where you’re making a fraction of the killing. At the height of their popularity I saw Garbage twice and I truly enjoyed both concerts. During the 90s Shirley Manson was stunning to meet in person when they did a signing in Ann Arbor, MI. Didn’t get any pretentious vibes. I especially remember watching them when they opened for the Smashing Pumpkins. They uncomfortably came out unprepared for another 4 songs because Billy & the band were fighting.
I had read somewhere that if you sell a fraction of albums on your own vs a record deal, you take home more money.
That original Gran Turismo for PSOne introduced me to Garbage with the song "If Heaven Is Wide"
All the mascara girls in my late 90s high school loved Garbage.
Stellar band! Shirley remains outspoken and does not sugarcoat things then or now. Part of the soundtrack to my life. Had the pleasure of seeing Garbage's opening show here in her hometown of Edinburgh where she was surrounded by friends and family at a sold-out gig! Was stoked to find out this Christmas she was three blocks away from me posting on her IG at a private Whiskey tasting tour. Love them to bits!
I was so in love with Shirley Manson in the 90's
Who wasn't!
Shirley Manson once asked me where the bathroom was. My claim to fame when I lived in LA.
They’re still killing it!!! Saw them last night and oh man was it beautiful!!! Opened with Vow ❤
We cover I'm Only happen When It Rains, and now that I know the history of the band, there's a lot about the members that I can relate to and I think I can do Garbage better justice when we perform. All the members seem like really decent people. Thank you for this.
They are still touring now in 2024, I can't wait to see them live! Many of the B-sides they've now released are incredible.
I saw Garbage last year and they were amazing! great show. Shirley is so powerful and the music surrounds her with so much magic. I will see them again next time they tour near me.
Was waiting for this one. Thank you.
Amazing video on a phenomenal band. Great work man!
Always loved this group Shirley Manson is still my biggest crush and Butch Vig is such a underrated drummer and producer I'd love to see a band he produced Chainsaw Kittens on this channel someday
Would you say she's your... #1 Crush?
@@christopherwebb3517 yes she is
Love Butch and his body of work but he’s not an outstanding drummer, he couldn’t work as a session musician, and I think he’s one of the most famous producers alive, so how is he underrated or underapprciated there? He’s produced albums that have sold millions of copies across multiple decades, the epitome of a respected and recognised record producer!
She mentioned this video on Instagram today and she doesn’t sound too thrilled .
I’m glad that NHL 2000 got a shoutout in this video. I, too, discovered Garbage through that game’s inclusion of Push It.
umm, what about gran turismo 1 and 2, no love for sim racing games?
She was an awesome T-1001 in Sarah Connor Chronicles. I wished we could have got more seasons of that show (especially since it ended on a cliffhanger).
This seemed like a very in-depth and enjoyable video that comes to a screeching halt jumping years ahead in mere seconds and then ending.
I LOVED COLUMBIA HOUSE!! Of course, I was a little kid, so most of my experience with it was poring over the tape list on a weekly basis, marking all of the music that I'd get if I could, and daydreaming about being old enough to sign up. Then, when I was 10 or 11, I actually lied on the form, sent in the penny, and 2 months later I got a box of tapes! I still remember how ecstatic I was. There's nothing like getting a box full of music in the mail ❤🎶🎵
That's awesome. Fortunately for me, even though my mom and step dad were negligent and abusive in many ways, they DID let me put a check mark next to one or two cd's that I wanted. I can relate to that feeling you get when you're 13 and the new music you've been waiting for comes in the mail
Who doesn't absolutely fawn over Shirley, good lord.
Carry the touch by fire town is one of my all time favorite songs from the 80's ..
Still have it in my playlist
An excellent summary. Thanks.
Great music. And she’s sooo pretty! Beautiful voice to boot.
Great vid! Good details and very
Thorough. Do more on this level of information.
just had the pleasure of seeing Garbage in Austin at COTA!! Fantastic show in 106F heat! :)
🦇🦇🦇👏👏👏👏I love that Garage just covered a Siouxie an the Banshees song 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇬🇧🦇🦇
They're still active, releasing music (latest album was released literally this year), touring, Shirley is very active on band's Instagram, etc., so the title "Happened" is a bit off... It's still "Happening" :)
Waiting for Garbage in Ukraine, I missed the previous show unfortunately
It's interesting to see behind the scenes videos of groups. In the 90s, I just assumed Garbage had their stuff together (successful, confident, etc). Apparently, they were regular people who struggled to succeed and doubted themselves. I'm glad they had success and were a good musical influence. Yeah, the 2000s has not been great for music.
I’ve seen Garbage multiple times. At first at festivals and then 3 times when they were headlining. They never disappoint. I have all of their albums, and there’s only one I am just so/so called Not Your Kind of People. But the two after that, right back to their magic. Their lyrics have been ahead of their time, especially on Bleed Like Me. One of my fave bands next to Radiohead for decades!
How interesting because my thoughts mirror yours. I've listened to all their albums and the only one I was so-so on was Not Your Kind of People neither. It wasn't bad but it didn't really have that "oomph" factor that their other albums had but they certainly got that momentum back with Strange Little Birds and No Gods, No Masters, it was like a return to form to their 1995 debut and Version 2.0.
@@KaiDecadence I guess maybe they needed time to get back into their groove after their extended break? I’m just so happy they’re back. I just wish they got the exposure they used to get. When I hear 20 bands that all sound the same it’s so frustrating. But the channel Justin Hawkins Rides Again exposes some really great bands and he’s so funny.He uploads everyday. Oh and Pat Finnerty is a channel where he makes hilarious videos on songs that are just bad WMTSS (What Makes This Song Stink) videos, he’s stepping away from the podcasts, it was just an opportunity. I like to spread some joy during these bleak days especially when I hear from other Garbage fans. : )
@@phoenixgirl70 Yeah I think you might be right. Bleed Like Me was a great album, maybe not as experimental as Version 2.0 but a solid Alternative Rock album and I suppose after they went on hiatus post BLM, they may have had a rocky return since they hadn't seen each other in 5 years ad NYKOP ust felt a bit off only for SLB they had been together and felt more like they did in the 90s and were able to make a full-on bounce back haha.
And yeah it does suck that Garbage aren't as known anymore in the mainstream but I suppose it's for the best because that is what allows Garbage to stay true to themselves without having to compromise artistic integrity for some record company that only cares about safe and profitable.
@@KaiDecadence True about having full control over their music. You’d think though with Butch Vig still producing some of the biggest bands/records still to this day they’d let him do whatever he wants. He’s made so many record companies tons of money.
But then we have Charlie Puth making a song called Marvin Gaye that is so unsexy and it’s a hit? Marvin must be spinning in his grave! If any of them actually listened to Marvin They’d actually get turned on. Sorry, I just heard that the other day and I was like dumbfounded the crap people love today. Just an old person yelling at clouds. But it’s just so baaad. Btw I was a teen when Marvin was killed so not that old. It just blows my mind some of the stuff that is so popular. There’s still great stuff out there.
Excellent video summary/presentation of a great r&r band. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
They still sounded great Live in St Louis in 2021!
One of my favorite 90s bands. I’m glad I was in my 20s then so I could experience them the way I did.
Such a great band. One of the best. It is interesting to learn just how intelligent and thoughtful they all were/are too. Thanks for this video.
Normal people who make art with the same insecurities anyone would have when thrust into fame. It's authentic.
I saw them in concert in Lima, Peru two weeks ago. They still sound pretty good!
The newest album might be their best! Love them!
Wow MLB and Garbage in the same week🤪 Butch Vig is who inspired me to work in the studio. Thanks again Sid!
lmao I just saw them this Sunday in Austin at a nearly sold out show with Metric and Noel Gallagher 's HFB.
Still love #1 Crush from the Romeo and Juliet soundtrack, so haunting...
All the 90's people remember this dudes
Version 2.0 , Bleed like Me were AWESOME ALBUMS after breaking through
They still rock. I saw them in concert about a year and a half ago
Color Me Badd ♥️💛💙 is my favorite 90s music band ever
seen them live twice in, 98 and 99. Two of the best shows I been to. Manson's stage presence was awe inspiring
What happened...they only went an released a bloody album in 2021!!
The trick is to keep breathing is the real masterpiece of Garbage. absolutely amazing song. totally mature.
I'm 62 yrs old. I discovered Garbage in or about the year 2002 through younger folks around me and never left liking this awesome band. I ain't gonna say who's better or what. I just want them to come to Hawaii and play a show so I can see them!
Shirley, I can't have enough of you!
Butch, no comments!
Your channel is awesome!
Shirley Manson has aged well
I loved this band especially Cherry Lips and I Think I'm Paranoid Shirley Manson absolutely gorgeous and brilliant love you guys xo 💖😇 from New York City 😇💖🙏🤗🇺🇸🇮🇱🇨🇦🇬🇧❤️💓💓
My heart..ty for this refresher. I was obsessed as an adolescent...
You know how kids..especially neurodivergent kids that will go on and on about their special interests? Yeah that was me..6th grade till my adult yrs. Garbage wasn't anything my peers got into. I would never stfu about them..(aka. Not understanding and missing social cues bc duh I'm neurodivergent af) I was dubbed the garbage girl. I knew all of these details and more😅😂.
Now that I'm in my mid 30's and the majority of my life was traumatic af. I rarely listen bc it strikes up my trauma responses..🥺
Garbage to this day is still near and dear to my heart. Still hands down my favorite. Plus I don't really need to listen them bc in my head I can hear them.
My mother didn't respect boundaries. She actually invaded my privacy and autonomy. She burnt my garbage poster and cds.🥺😬😖🙃.
I spent many hours researching every damn day. Got in trouble for singing vow at a Christian camp talent show. Parents were not pleased🤣😒🙃
I'm half awake lol sry
Their latest album is quite amazing, some of the bonus tracks are INSANE!! I love GODHEAD, THE CHEMICALS, NO HORSES.. so much message and energy in Garbage´s latest release! check it out
Remember picking up a Goodbye, Mr. Mckenzie album before the inception of Garbage and only now realized Shirley was in that band. Excellent debut album.
I briefly shared a house with her during the Goodbye Mr Mackenzie days. I didn't know her too well but she was always good fun to hang out with. My dad was a genetics professor at Edinburgh University so perhaps he knew her dad? (I didn't know her dad was one too until I watched this video)
People also forget that Garbage played the title song for James Bond's "The World Is Not Enough." That alone brings you immortality of being in a 007 film.
When Mick Jagger just pops in to say hi, I could see how that might be a bit mind blowing
Well since 2012 they have released albums. Toured. Some of their beat work has been in the last few years. They had a little hiatus between 2002 and 2007 but never really been away. Always in my heart and still consistently releasing amazing music.
the video for i think im paranoid shot me into puberty at the speed of light.
I just saw them last summer w Alanis Morrisette. They were GREAT!
Mi banda favorita hasta ahora, los amo!
I met Garbage backstage at Mt. Holyoke college in 2001. My daughter and I were both big fans. We were the only two allowed to see them. Shirley is the nicest person. And Butch was a sweetheart. They offered us food and we hung out with them for about an hour. Shirley told my daughter to do good in school and she kept in touch with her for a bit. My daughter at the time was a senior in high school. She gave us autographed pictures. It was a night to remember.
I just saw them last summer and it was a great show!
What an interesting band story! I'm from Wisconsin & I didn't know this was going on right under my nose! Shirley Manson is the bomb!
Enjoyed all Garbage concerts !
2nd concert I ever went to, Garbage in NYC.
Amazing experience, Butch Vig was even more beautiful in person. Shirley Manson was a goddess at the time.
Very Underated, fantastic group!.
