Me too and I wasn't even alive yet, I would kill someone to be able to experience that time period. Starting your adult life in 2020 SUCKS no one is gonna have nostalgia for like 2013 onwards. The world has taken a nosedive since the invention of smartphones and social media
I was in my 20s in the 90s. It's a hard meh from me. I had to work, commute using public transportation. College / grad school. It's fine. Friends died from heroin overdoses. It's just a decade. I liked the 70s more. I didn't do much then, I ate a lot of pudding 🍮 and ice Cream 🍨.
Too bad I didn't know about this in 2000 when I heard "Smile." I would've been in love with this band. Well, now I'm 30. An angsty 30 year old teenager!
@@ivanaparicio3815 Yes, it's in the scene where Julie sneaks out while Mr. Miyagi is sleeping. She blasts this song and the singer's voice really captured my attention because it was so distinctive. I had to look up the song and I fell in love with the band. Cherry Alive is actually one of my favorite rock albums of the 90's.
Great clip, great song.Years ago in the comment section I got a good laugh from a poster who wrote "Clarissa explains it all LOUDLY".Sounds right to me. 👱♀🎶
As a teenager around 1999, I fell in love with Vitamin C. From "Smile" to "As Long As You're Loving Me" ("Last Nite" was never released here), I was pretty much obsessed with her. Many years later, thanks to the Internet, I discovered that she had been in Eve's Plum before she became Vitamin C. I eagerly tracked down their albums and I cannot accurately convey how much I loved every song upon first hearing them. Almost a decade after first discovering them, I still play both regularly. Colleen was a unique talent, and the rest of the band are incredible. I just wish they had had actual success with their records and that they'd stuck together. I'm hoping for a reunion one day, although that might seem like a long shot.
@@yvonnesanders4308agree but her grunge rock band wasn't taking off. She had to change something. Don't care for Vitamin C's song, but I understand she wanted to make it in the music industry.
She is one of the most wide-ranging women in the music industry, wow! 😃 I thought I'd see what this Eve's Plum band Colleen aka Vitamin C was part of. 😂 I found out that she was in Hairspray (1988) alongside Debbie Harry (of Blondie) and from her sound here, I get why. 😁🎶
@@tgab3301 she changed her name to Vitamin C because when she performed in other country's NO ONE knew who EVE PLUMB is,, she wanted a name that was known in all country's ..
I don't know why but I can hear this song a thousand times and I still love it. It definately has a 90's feel but I can absolutely see this as being a Screamer of the Week on WLIR/DRE in the 80's.
For over 20 years I couldn't find this because I didn't know who the artist was. All I remembered was she sounded like Debbie Harry and later went solo with a name that reminded me of oranges (Vitamin C). FINALLY!
I discovered this band in a movie called Higher Learning back in the 1990s it is the best discovery of all time and Higher Learning is a classic 90s gem
I found the single of this song in a thrift store not long ago. I was so shocked haha. It was like fate because I love Eve's Plum. But whoa what a rare find.
Wow, the oversized scoop-neck with the boots, tights, and choker... that takes me back! I love watching 80s/90s videos for the fashion as much as the music :)
I stumbled upon this and had to laugh. Mike and Ben Kotch are the guitarist and drummer in the band. Colleen Fitzpatrick is the singer and is married to Mike. I know them all quite well as Mike and Ben are my stepbrothers. Nice to see Eve's Plum still has some fans out there. They are all doing well, they got a pretty raw deal from Sony. If you want to blame anyone for their lack of promotion, blame them, they suck.
+Robert Thomas -- I'm so glad to hear they are all doing well. To this day I enjoy listening to the Cherry Alive album. It's one of my favorite albums from the 90's. Please thank the band and the lovely Colleen for me.
John George, I'll be seeing them this summer when they are back East to visit, I'll pass on the well wishes and link them to this thread as well. I don't think they dwell on the past too much but they'll get a kick out of this. My stepbrothers are good people and Colleen has a wicked sense of humor. They are happy , doing well have families, etc.
+Robert Thomas I worked with Colleen on Hairspray in Baltimore when I was 17. She was really nice, and I remember how much Debbie Harry bonded with her. So long ago.
I was watching Dracula 2000 a few weeks ago and saw her and was like "heyyy isnt that that Vitamin C girl from the 90s? whatever happened to her?". Good to know shes doing well
Listening to gold like this confirms that I’m not crazy, and that the 90’s really did exist, and was totally sick! (Sick meaning cool for the uninitiated)
discovered this band on the new MTV Classic channel on 120 mins. they played this video. great song! and I thought I knew all of the more obscure bands from that era. guess I was wrong. golden age of music.
when people say they like the 90s for the "alternative rock" they still get pleasantly surprised when i play Eve's Plum a band some of them never heard of haha
One more thing, come back! The 90's rocked! You could do what ever. Y'all did that but just made it jam. I still gotta crush for the singer. So, so hot, talented , and 94 with 30,000 people in the crowd.
I had the most wonderful privilege to talk and dance a lil with you while Dig was playing at Trees in Dallas after y'all played. I fell in love. Please keep playing. Y'all are great!
I remember this from 120 Minutes on MTV......probably last time I heard this song. This playlist has some deep cuts from the 90s alternative music scene.
I haven't heard this song in awhile and it's still awesome. My dad used to have their first album years ago when he was living. I still have that Vitamin C album from nineteen ninety-nine.
WOW.....I sure remember this one, though I hadn't heard this in years!! Now I've got to get this CD out for a listen, it is scary how much she sounds like Debbie Harry at times on this song.....
I love her smooth singing voice the smooth parts of the song just makes me feel good like she wispering in my ear ,and the way she slings her hair around, as will as the the serious look, luv the smile.. the band seems fun and great! dayul72
I remember when Colleen reinvented herself as "Vitamin C", saw the video for "Smile" and I instantly recognized her and her awesome voice. "Hey, waitaminute, that's....!" Trying to explain to my roommates who she was. They could have cared less, lol.
Thanks, I was looking for this song for a long time. My language is Spanish, I will try to add subtitles so that other people can enjoy the excellent topic. Thank you so much
I had heard a song on the radio and had no idea who it was. Turned out later to be Veruca Salt but one record store guy told me maybe Eve's Plum so I got the cassette. Really liked it. Not sure why they only put out one.
I was very obsessed with this group in 2019, and I dare say they had a lot of potential, but the video is quite strange but nice at the same time!! My favorite will always be Blue because it makes me laugh
This woman was one seriously underated singer. She also happens to be incredibly pretty, cute, AND sexy as hell. I loved her in the movie Dracula 2000. Although I was rather dissapointed when she went towards the hip hop genre by releasing that song Graduation under her alias Vitamin C. This song however is still a refreshing timeless gem.
As a 90's I kinda felt like a side of rock music at the time was really trying uproot the hippie movement, would have been nice for a second round of free love and amazing music❤
"Is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said Tell me is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said Tell me is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said" I would marry her at anytime of the day. Oh Colleen Ann Fitzpatrick.
In short, '93 was a year of dope AF music.
I want to live in the 90's in a loop.
Me too and I wasn't even alive yet, I would kill someone to be able to experience that time period. Starting your adult life in 2020 SUCKS no one is gonna have nostalgia for like 2013 onwards. The world has taken a nosedive since the invention of smartphones and social media
I was 17 in 1990 and I understand you

Where would you want to live that? In America or in Serbia?
@@Xarfax321 the death of Tito's dream, sad times, also, amazing yu-rock. Fish out Gruppa-220
Too bad I didn't know about this in 2000 when I heard "Smile." I would've been in love with this band. Well, now I'm 30. An angsty 30 year old teenager!
Stay angsty! Angsty people change the world!
hahaha yeah it doesnt go away the angsty teen. im 46.
Update: I’m 33 and still angsty.
Same!
@@Unluckywinner805 im 31, i want to go back in time now so bad.
they should definitely win an award for most underrated band of the 90's
I wouldn’t say that but it’s definitely that’s song when it’s played you are “oh shit! I know this song but where do I know it from?”
100%. They're still one of my all time favorite bands ever!!!!
@@mikerichardson9147 I first heard this song in that Hillary Swank Karate Kid movie. lol
@@StormX6 I kinda thought I knew it from that movie

90's alternative music rules!!!!
I'd plum forgotten all about this little gem of a song!
it's on itunes now...I just purchased it
Now, it's a prune
😏
Clarissa Explains it All. And she explains it loudly.
I really like this, I nearly flipped when I found out she was in Eve's Plumb before she became Vitamin C
You and me both

They do stick together still today, and they are all currently based in the L.A. area.
Vitamin c was awful
@@yvonnesanders4308agree but her grunge rock band wasn't taking off. She had to change something. Don't care for Vitamin C's song, but I understand she wanted to make it in the music industry.
This band, this music was part of my high school years 🎶
I worked at a record store sometime in the 90s and this song was always playing. Glad I finally found it.
Where has this song been all my life
Bleh I miss the 90s. So many good memories.
I miss it too Sheels1976!
Got the album after hearing this in a movie. An awesome album.

+Warren LOL i know this is a really old post, But I had the same experience at a flea market.
Wow, the oversized scoop-neck with the boots, tights, and choker... that takes me back! I love watching 80s/90s videos for the fashion as much as the music :)
her voice in the beginning of the song reminds me of Debbie Harry..like A LOT
good call
Lol i just came to the comments to say that. I was like "wow this is a total Blondie ripoff" but then she started screaming
Wow, yes, that is exactly who I was trying to think of, her clean vox are very DH like.
I agree. I was thinking the very same thing.
Well, she played Debbie Harry's daughter in the original Hairspray...

Always a favorite!!!
That's it, I'm getting bangs.
Me too ima guy
I listen to this practically everyday.
Saw her live in the 90’s at the troubador with rob rule opening. . Amazing convert
This is EPIC 90s GREATNESS.
Listening to gold like this confirms that I’m not crazy, and that the 90’s really did exist, and was totally sick! (Sick meaning cool for the uninitiated)
The 90's never ended in Portland!
Kids are back to using “sick” again as of late. 🙂
Colleen Fitzpatrick. Aka vitamin c,, is so awesome
always loved this song. it's got the hook and riff with a female voice. nails it.
Just because you betray someone doesn't mean you are helping yourself
wow, this song brings back college days memories -- good times :D
This was my Jam back in the day. Actually it still is.
Same 🙂
something magical about this song, the screaming is intense, many songs have screaming but this is in another world...
this should have way more views
epic 90's. this was def among the best of the best.
discovered this band on the new MTV Classic channel on 120 mins. they played this video. great song! and I thought I knew all of the more obscure bands from that era. guess I was wrong. golden age of music.
when people say they like the 90s for the "alternative rock" they still get pleasantly surprised when i play Eve's Plum a band some of them never heard of haha
i bet they all heard the graduation song !
This is one of those songs that sound better live in a dingy rock venue.
I saw her at Zephyrfest in New Orleans in 93 or 94 - an outstanding, energetic live performance!
No shit they had a show in new orleans?!
Esta canción lo escuhaba en Radio doble 9, tremendo y potente single. saludos desde Lima, Perú.
Año 94
One more thing, come back! The 90's rocked! You could do what ever. Y'all did that but just made it jam. I still gotta crush for the singer. So, so hot, talented , and 94 with 30,000 people in the crowd.
Saw them at there record release party in a small club on Staten Island...Great!
The rock palace that’s where this video was filmed
I had the most wonderful privilege to talk and dance a lil with you while Dig was playing at Trees in Dallas after y'all played. I fell in love. Please keep playing. Y'all are great!

WOW.....I sure remember this one, though I hadn't heard this in years!! Now I've got to get this CD out for a listen, it is scary how much she sounds like Debbie Harry at times on this song.....
She also sounds like Natalie Merchant.
Colleen sounds like everything.
she played the daughter of a character played by Debbie Harry (Amber Von Tussle from Hairspray 1988)
I used to have this album when I lived in LA. Wonder what ever happened to it. Brings back memories.
I still have mine.
Just ordered an autographed eve’s plum envy CD. It had autographs of all the names including Colleen, signed “Colleen”. Supposedly, it’s rare.
Everyone who came here knows what good music is...KROQ used to play this great song.
Marcia Marcia Marcia! God I loved this song so much in high school.
Still hoping this amazing band gets back together.
I love her smooth singing voice the smooth parts of the song just makes me feel good like she wispering in my ear ,and the way she slings her hair around, as will as the the serious look, luv the smile.. the band seems fun and great! dayul72
I remember seeing them so many years ago. They were very very good live.
Remembering seeing Eve's Plum at the Court Tavern in New Brunswick!!!
I remember when Colleen reinvented herself as "Vitamin C", saw the video for "Smile" and I instantly recognized her and her awesome voice. "Hey, waitaminute, that's....!" Trying to explain to my roommates who she was. They could have cared less, lol.
Woah! Never knew her voice had this range!
Colleen's dancing is the best ! obviously she has a back round in ballet & jazz !
What a great Band 👍 Eve Plum Band Rocks .
Wish this group would get back together
this is vitamin c whoa pre those days I always loved her music now I love it even more.
Totally agree, this song just kicks ass. It's sort of like Garbage with a punkier edge.
Eve's Plum- Feat. Peter & Greg Brady on guitar and drums
Florence's Henderson
Love these guys. Great pop hooks. Envy a keeper.
The naked gun lounge singer (her) brought me here. The tv show Weird Science made me discover this band
This to Vitamin C. The equivalent of a rabid Pittbull becoming a Golden Retriever...
wow.
saw this band at small venue in st. louis..
blueberry hill. sounded great live
I so miss those times when bands DIDN'T SOUND like the other ones cuz each of them HAD THEIR OWN AWESOME SOUND!!!!!
Thanks, I was looking for this song for a long time. My language is Spanish, I will try to add subtitles so that other people can enjoy the excellent topic. Thank you so much
Just because you get what you want doesn't mean you get what you want
Wow what a stark contrast ... Vitamin C and as lead singer of Eve's Plum :o
She is BEAUTIFUL..and she looks A LOT like Christina Applegate!
Currently watching Fatal Attraction, I definitely can see a video of clips of Alex Forrest set to this song, it certainly "wouldn't be ignored"
Like I said awesome 🎵 🎥 colleen😃😃😃👍👍👍🌷🌷🌷🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I had heard a song on the radio and had no idea who it was. Turned out later to be Veruca Salt but one record store guy told me maybe Eve's Plum so I got the cassette. Really liked it. Not sure why they only put out one.
They did release a second album, 'Cherry alive'. Also very good.
I was very obsessed with this group in 2019, and I dare say they had a lot of potential, but the video is quite strange but nice at the same time!! My favorite will always be Blue because it makes me laugh
I saw them live in 1994, didnt know who they were. I have been a fan ever since that day.
This woman was one seriously underated singer. She also happens to be incredibly pretty, cute, AND sexy as hell. I loved her in the movie Dracula 2000. Although I was rather dissapointed when she went towards the hip hop genre by releasing that song Graduation under her alias Vitamin C. This song however is still a refreshing timeless gem.
I agree with pinup60 - I was thinking the same thing. She sounds a lot like Debbie Harry and that's a good thing.
The magic of music-
0:59, 2:09, and 2:59
As a 90's I kinda felt like a side of rock music at the time was really trying uproot the hippie movement, would have been nice for a second round of free love and amazing music❤
Buenisima cancion de los 90s
I remember opening for them on this tour in 1993, in Dallas.
"Is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said
Tell me is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said
Tell me is it oh is it as easy as you said as you said"
I would marry her at anytime of the day.
Oh Colleen Ann Fitzpatrick.
No kiddin, Man I never knew what those lyrics were thanks for that
She’s whips her hair back and forth
0:07 she just vibin with that smug look on her face
THIS IS AMAZINGGGG OMG
what a GODDESS
Had A Major Crush On Her Back In The Day ...Oh , I Still Do ...🥰😍
Oh my....this brings me back to my days in the Navy at the 4400 Club
Great band!
i can't believe this is vitamin C
I know right??? crazy
Really? wow you learn something everyday.
I know it in 2018...ahhhh
Kyle Phillips Interestingly, when Vitamin C came out, I kept saying "I can't believe this is the chick from Eve's Plum."
*Reads the label
vitamin c is not a substitute for vitamin c, vitamin c doesn't content vitamin c.
Yeah me too. 😁
Love this band
I hunted for this song for so God damned long I feel like I just won a fight with a bloodlusted jake paul
Colleen Ann Fitzpatrick, you are my one and only...
So in love with her hair ..oh my f****** god ..
This is badass
