Taking a 1960's song by Paul Simon and giving it an 80's vibe, then playing it again in the 2000's with more mature voices. This song is timeless. Between Simon's lyrics and amazing guitar riffs and the tight harmonies....amazing work.
Rocked the sh*t outa that! And such male dominated industry back in the day well they should be as well as many in the hall celebrating Musicians at this caliber.
What a fantastic vocal blend! These harmonies prove the whole is greater than the sum of its parts! You cannot replace any of these individuals and achieve anything close to this!
As if there needed to be a reminder of Paul Simon's genius, the line, "Seasons change with the scenery, weaving time in a tapestry, won't you stop and remember me?" is just magical.
I met these ladies in an airport exec wing when I was a pilot in the Army. They were awesome to me. Susanna gave me a big hug that I remember to this day
One of the most underrated bands of our time Amazing harmonies Every member was an actual real musician with talent and ability And Suzanne has an incredible voice and stage presence
The Bangles have three major songs. Hazy Shade is a cover of Simon and Garfunkel, Egyptian was written by Liam Sternberg, and Eternal Flame was written along with Steinberg and Kelly who wrote a bunch of songs in that period. Not sure what you mean about "actual real musicians" when they didn't write most of their biggest hits. Also, can people PLEASE stop responding to every RUclips video by claiming the band is "underrated?" The Bangles had three hits in a very short period then disappeared. I'd say they're properly rated.
Oh my…this is nostalgic 😢 I remember we used this piece and make choreography for our shows our Japan 🇯🇵 days as entertainer… those where the days… ❤ thankz…
@@historyoflol5611 I think they S and G were experimenting. It sounded more like the Rolling Stones and the Beatles made a song. The S and G Harmonies are there. The beat, the vibe, is something else. Dolly Parton was asked about Whitney's version of her song, and she said "It's great! She can send me the checks!" I'm sure they feel the same way.
Bangles version charted #2, Simon's #17 & he retained rights. There is an interview of the Bangles about meeting him at an event and the discussion. He was happy as it appeared in a movie and Bangles introduced the song to a new generation. More recognition for him and money. Like the guy who wrote "I Love Rock and Roll". Joan Jett made it a hit. Later Spears and Cyrus introduced it to new generations and audiences. Made money everytime, since he retained his rights. Plus it was used in TV and Movies.
Given Simon's reaction to the Disturbed version of "Sounds of Silence", I don't think he'd have ANY issue with this very well done cover of a very NONtypical S&G song.
they were SOOOOO underrated. when you get past the side eye and the smoking hot looks you understand that they were far more talented than they were given credit for.
This song still grabs me every time! I'm a huge fan of the original S&G song. These ladies give true tribute to this song and crush it with with beautiful layered vocals! Amazing! to see them do this live and nearly perfect
This song takes personal meaning to me it's about seeing life from an optimistic or pessimistic point. look out! there's a patch of snow on the ground! (pessimist) fields are ripe it's the springtime of my life! (optimist)
Micki Steele!!! The world miss you! Bangles needs you!!! Please, make a comeback! I miss you and many many more miss you! Bangles are still 2018 great but If you make a comeback the Bangles would be a SUPERGROUP again!!!! No one can handle the bass like you!!!
This song is so great...thank you...I hope you come to Europe...Im now 55...NENA or RAMMSTEIN were also in this age ...and they have the best live performance of all time
I always liked the buildup and flipping around of the lead and harmony parts starting at 2:12 and the tension from the bass walk at the end. Their arrangement and their performance kicks!
One of my favorite songs by the Bangles - one of the rare times before they got back together and they literally sang the whole song together. No real lead singer on it. They harmonize so well...
Funny story: Go back and listen to the Bangles original recording.(not Simon and Garfunkel), the final chorus begins with one revolution by Susanna's vocals isolated. Other than these 2 lines, the entire song was the 4 of them in harmony. The powers that be really wanted to drive a wedge between Susanna and the rest of the girls. The producer had that tweek, the whole song was supposed to be harmonized vocals.
@@chuckeecheeze4649 Interesting, never knew that. The wedge was done by producers earlier on and well documented - Walk Like An Egyptian. On that song we all know, the producer made all four of them try out for a stanza (there were only three). Debbie lost out, and the other three got to sing on the song. That put them on the path towards breaking up originally. Time healed the wounds, and they got back together close to the turn of the century for one more album which had one top 10 hit.
This song will always remind me of my daughter's dad of when he would picked me up from school on a "Hazy Shade of Winter." I love the rendition by how the Bangles collaborated this song. It's a great version.
@Caseytify so?just like there are young women who likes old men it’s the same viceversa,my ex is 12 years younger than me & we got along perfectly until the reason in why we broke up.
Well the Go-Go's debut album went to number one, and they wrote all their own songs (most of the Bangles hits were largely written by others or covers). I like the Bangles but I wouldn't put them there before the Go-Go's.
I really do miss the four of them harmonizing as they did on this song. Their harmonies is what made them as successful as they were and I guess that is lost permanently now.
Very good no doubt, but the best cover EVER goes to another S&G classic "The Sound of Silence", done by Disturbed...which also could be the best music video ever!!
Wow, they are all singing and playing. They sound great too. I love this song. It's in Rock Band. It's even more fun to play. The Bangles are a class act!
This 1987 song Makes me think of when my dad left and served in the Gulf War in 1990 . This was the song that was playing in the background at McDonald's.
Just because something's old it doesn't mean it isn't good. Just because something's old doesn't mean you throw it away. Just a reminder to the people on here who say the Bangles can't sing as well as they used to. That's nonsense!
+George Vreeland Hill I understand what you mean, sod them trying to ruin your happy musical memories by dredging up the drippy arse end of the '60's (the S&G original was ok but the Bangles version is better, maybe I say that because I had to endure my dad playing S&G incessantly when growing up in the late 60's and early 70's) hehe.
@@zipcutter Yeh... I heard this before. And Quite tight as it was, it needed some 4 real Bangles on the back track. I gather that would've been a $$$ issue though!
The Bangles and Oingo Boingo performed at my high school in 1981. I remember smoking a clove cigarette with The drummer and guitarist out behind the gym.
![Blox Fruits Dragon Rework Update [Full Stream]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/EqDAp8udhm0/mqdefault.jpg)
The four of them harmonizing is the gold.
Bangles should be in the Rock n roll hall of fame
RHOF is a travesty and joke, many other rock legends havent even included like Link Wray the guy was one of the few first fuzz guitar sound pioneers
The name of the hall should be Music Hall of Fame.

Timeless! I could watch that over and over!

The most underrated Girl´s band In History. Dammed Eternal Flame.
What a fantastic vocal blend! These harmonies prove the whole is greater than the sum of its parts! You cannot replace any of these individuals and achieve anything close to this!

E W i like your way of thinking personally thats a me ory id take with me throughout life to the grave
thank you for your service from all of us. A great memory to have.
Everyone is in love with Susanna.
I would pass out
To have a hug of Susanna i wouldn't wash again, you lucky person, one of the best bands ever.
I just love the Bangles' vibe. Just a bunch of gorgeous ladies who seem to enjoy making music together. So inspirational to other girl groups.
Susanna Hoffs will never hit The Wall. Still looking stunning, since the 80’s!
One of the most underrated bands of our time
Amazing harmonies
Every member was an actual real musician with talent and ability
And Suzanne has an incredible voice and stage presence
All four of them? Eric t?
I don't know if underrated is the right word, they got massive airtime on MTV.
Anyone else come here from the original version by Simon & Garfunkel? 😆
@@djthalie nope

That little bit of distortion and fuzz on that guitar riff hits me everytime. Vicki Peterson 😍😍😍😍😍
Oh my…this is nostalgic 😢 I remember we used this piece and make choreography for our shows our Japan 🇯🇵 days as entertainer… those where the days… ❤ thankz…
Love the fact that the bassist was once a member of the Runaways. Anyone old enough to remember them knows what I mean, what a band.
Michael is awesome
Michael S. Thomas yeah they gave us, Joan Jett and Lita Ford too
John Doran cherry bomb
Michael has always been my favorite.
don't forget that Vicki played with the GoGos for a bit too
Always wondered what Simon and/or Garfunkel thought about this version. Sure does rock!
What would they thought of a four chick band playing their song??

Pretty sure they would have been thrilled, the musicianship is on point.
Love watching Vicky play guitar in this.
This song went very well with the film
"Less Than Zero".
they were SOOOOO underrated. when you get past the side eye and the smoking hot looks you understand that they were far more talented than they were given credit for.
Best girl band ever. Brilliant vocalists and musicians.
Alongside the Supremes yes the best girl band ever.
@@johndean4765 I class a band as musicians, not just singers.
Songs like these makes me beleaven that music are the only kind of magic that Humans are capable of, becource it touches a great part of my soul

Vicki always rocks hard.❤
@@paulamiles9559 Es la mejor de la banda. Y la más bella.
Vicky es preciosa. Mi bangle favorita.
Susanna Hoffs eyes even after all these years Damn!
Outstanding performance! The Bangles came to rock the house.
I love this band. Good music and great songs and they are great.
Still madly in love with half of that band!!! After all these years too.
Only half? I admit I was taken by Susanna Hoffs when I first saw them, but now that I'm older, I think all of them are gorgeous.
Great performance. Tight, good flow, great harmonizing, and you can see they're having FUN playing this song together.
Can't believe Susanna Hoffs was already 41 at that time, looked so young and beautiful.
41 is not that old, many women still look great at that age.
But she is over 60 now, and still looks like this:D
She's my age now (65) and still gorgeous.
Every time I hear that riff, I want to marry Vickie.
They look and sound great.
LOVED, LOVED their version of this song.
Micki Steele!!! The world miss you! Bangles needs you!!!
Please, make a comeback!
I miss you and many many more miss you! Bangles are still 2018 great but If you make a comeback the Bangles would be a SUPERGROUP again!!!!
No one can handle the bass like you!!!
Michael was the hottest of the group! RIP
+macchlerie She's not dead.
I know she would'nt play with Bangles anymore, but we can have a dream about it.
Why wouldn't she play with the band again? What's the deal, I've not kept up with them.
she's 69 now. Maybe retirement sounds good to her.
I had a major crush on Susanna when I was a teenager in the 80s. So much so that I saw her movie at the theater.
I am and always have been so smitten with Susanna Hoffs!!❤
Just when you think you’ve smiled enough some thing like this makes your day.
WOW! These ladies, so very talented, and how can they all get even better looking with age?
This song is so great...thank you...I hope you come to Europe...Im now 55...NENA or RAMMSTEIN were also in this age ...and they have the best live performance of all time
I always liked the buildup and flipping around of the lead and harmony parts starting at 2:12 and the tension from the bass walk at the end. Their arrangement and their performance kicks!
It's always amazed me how much harmony they have.
OMG Does Susanna Hoffs look fantastic here.
Always!
Hottest woman in rock history Susanna Hoffs! Incredible beauty !
SUSANNA IS IN A CLASS BY HERSELF - BEAUTY ETERNAL!
So does Vicki❤
They're all friggin hot!
Their songs play a huge part of many childhood memories of mine even though i am and always have been a metalhead. Awesome tunes, legendary ladies
Who wouldn’t want a hug from Susannah Hoffs ! Lucky Guy!
Wow just wow

Top of my bucket list to see the Bangles play live, or maybe Susanna solo, live in NZ so need to win lottery 😀 ❤🇳🇿
Great band here and I LOVE this song!
It's great to hear a Paul Simon song rocked out like that. From the Bookends album, right after the Bridge album. They did it justice. Love it.

Great bass lines in this song!
Anyone else find it LAUGHABLE that the Go-Gos are in the RnR HOF….and NOT The Bangles? 🤣😂😀
Both are great. The Go-Go’s came first. Maybe they get more credit for that.
Well the Go-Go's debut album went to number one, and they wrote all their own songs (most of the Bangles hits were largely written by others or covers). I like the Bangles but I wouldn't put them there before the Go-Go's.

Susanna Hoffs must do the Cindy Crawford and Christie Brinkley beauty treatment. Stunning! She hasn't aged a year since they first recorded the song.
Mums rocking out with a killer track.. Hope we get there again.. cool af
Great cover by the bangles. Awesome
Great tune Bangles bring it up a peg love them all Michael exotic look Susana the babe of the group always
This is so beautiful.

As easy on the eye as they all were. Probably some of the most musically talented women, bunched together, EVER!!
Awesome performance!
They look and sound fantastic, I shouldn't say this but I get a taste of ,The Monkees, and I loved them.
Best live performance of this song from The Bangles.
If I was still 21 old. I chased after your concert tours. But hay I'm 56 now. If you can't make it. I guess you just couldn't make it
Angelic voices and shredding guitars. Maybe the best cover ever.
Very good no doubt, but the best cover EVER goes to another S&G classic "The Sound of Silence", done by Disturbed...which also could be the best music video ever!!
The Bangles all look like they enjoy life and performing.
Back in the 80's I saw the Bangles as 4 very lovely young ladies. Now I see them as 4 extremely talented young ladies and every bit as LOVELY,
