Wasn't great for me. My wife killed herself. Even the Queen called it the "annus horribalis" There was like a curse being spread amongst us.. But I do love this song.
Messaged my local radio station "what was your playlist 2 weeks ago between 6 and 8 pm? please!" because I could not get it out of my head. And the boss of the radio station himself replied with their entire playlist, what a legend.
After 29 years I heard this lovely song again while they played it one WDR4. I was driving on a German highway towards the sinking sun at the horizon. I was driving back straight into the memory lane of the nineties.
In my eyes & ears one of the most perfect songs of all time. Easyly at the same level as the best songs of The Stones, Michael Jackson, Joe Cocker to name only a few. It creates way more than just good music, it combines lyrics, voice, sound, deeper meaning and fantasy to a world of it‘s own in mind&soul😃
harmony? can be interpreted so many things, was the time until today so different? no and yes! should one look in everyone's time schedule ,, what was there? ask the affected ... this is how it usually stops, a complicated question !! .. this is how we stand without an answer! helo folks. Music is art above all other art! helo helo to this is the question I / we are wondering about a final answer ?? we listen well ?? ,,,,, yes! therefore they !! you !! is there to give us unlimited choice of fantasy or reality! God! wish you had a good band with good lyrics and good apt questions !!! Love you! wish it was my song!
UGH! I should never have sent this message!feel like rotten in the system. Hi you!I have son who is the same age as you. I'm so sorry, this should never have happened!!!
@@vegardanielsen8542 You got a 42 year old son? So, you‘re around 60+? BTW, I think it’s REALLY cool that you didn’t simply edited or deleted your weird message. That takes some balls. 🙂 I’d ask you about the drugs you were on, but then again, it must have been something psychedelic- like shrooms or anarchy 😂😂 I hope it wasn’t just alcohol, because it only lowers inhibitions. It doesn’t change what we feel or think. Mind, does your post make sense to YOU? Just curious. You know, I used to study languages and literature, but even Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot make a lot more sense. 😂😂 Anyway, just to be sure: I said „harmonics“. Not harmony.
Geht mir ähnlich. Ich bin echt nicht nah am Wasser gebaut, aber dieser Song löst irgendwas in mir aus. Aber kein Gefühl von Trauer...eher ein Glücksgefühl.
@@derostpreue2226 Dito..keine Trauer..eher "nur" wehmütige Gedanken an meine Jugend (so kitschig das auch sein mag ;-))..und das obwohl Shakesperars Sisters eigentlich so gar nicht meine Musik ist und war..aber so was von schön...
Mir geht es genauso. Meine Kindheit war in den 90ern und habe bis zum heutigen Tage schon viel erlebt. Freunde kamen und gingen, man wird älter, leider sind auch viele nahe Menschen von früher verstorben. Es macht einen sentimental und man denkt oft über die „unbeschwertere“ Zeit nach, die man früher hatte. Zumindest war es in der Kindheit und Jugend leichter, so ist zumindest mein Gefühl. Man schwelgt irgendwie in Erinnerungen, denkt an Momente und Situationen, die es so nie wieder geben wird.
One of the best songs ever written and performed, one of the best music videos ever, one of the all time favorite guitar solos and one of the coolest "girl bands" ever!
I was turning 16 by that time and I remember the first time that I listened to this song : what the hell is this amazing sound...?? Of course, since then, I'm a solo guitar lover. Because of this guitar solo. One of the greatest songs ever. The 90" s were unique.
No auto tune, crude language, synthesized beats, or visuals that make no sense, whatsoever..which is refreshing! Just pure talent, beautiful voices, soul filled lyrics, and actual music!! You can see and well as feel the pain in the song, which makes you saddened by it, but love it at the same time! Pure GOLD!! ❤️
listening to the music of our youth yearning to return home to a place that no longer exists. Cherish the present because once it's gone it's gone forever.
having worked with Eric clapton for many years as a songwriter and guitar player I'm sure marci picked up some tips ,the feel and vibrato are some of the best in a guitar solo ever
There lyrics and voices and harmonies are brilliant but THE VIDEOS for me are what push them to the next level of creativity. The drama! The spectacle! The deep detached gaze in her eyes, the connection and bond they share , all so well played! The video have this way of blending past and future reality and sifi fantasy. The emotional telepathy is what I enjoy the most! Not just hearing them but Watching them ! Shakespeare indeed.
...песня про две души Шекспира...одна безумна,вторая влюблена...так и творили своё Искусство втроём...на Волю их надо отпустить...вы вольны сами выбрать,где и с кем быть...моя Любовь с вами...и Бог с намт❤❤❤...
I'm sure they say love ! However if I am wrong because I am half death I like to believe they say love even if I am wrong because Love is certainly a strange thing
I'd just lurched into my late 20s and was feeling shattered after years of overdoing the partying. This song captured my mood perfectly. Fabulous pairing. I remember feeling gobsmacked when I saw Siobhan as part of this band in 1989 with 'History'. Mind blowing contrast to Bananarama!! Each song a gorgeous gem.
Heard the song now and then on the radio since it came out, but never seen the video until now and wow, it hits so hard for some reason. A visual masterpiece really.
@@briantitchener4829 Hi Brian, may be he/she is too young, or has no really known about the text. Due to my English is not mother's, I need at first to research for the lyrics and translate them, and, sure - to understand. After it I hear this song WITH the text, and not the music only. And the pictures are great and the part of the whole story. Greetings from Russia
Can't B-lieve it's more than 30 yrs.....but still remember when and where i've heard it first, it was while working. Didn't listen to it 4 ages but still so brilliant! Came back here, bc have just heard Stay as background music on TV, there4 it wasn't in a music show of course. But does anyone still remember You're history 3yrs earlier? Gr8 as well.
I remember when I heard this song for the first time. I didn't know a word of English, but music .. so many years have passed, I learned the language. But the MUSIC!
Absolutely no song writer in the last 20 years could write a song as good as this... true music
Agreed
Exactly!
That's bull. But it's a great song.
But this song is 30 years old. Unfair. ;-) This music was pure art.
Some, rare, most is meaningless, but its also a one hit wonder.
'Life is a strange thing, just when you think you've learned how to use it, it's gone' one of the most powerful lines in music.
Yes, I grow older and still remember this line.. so true.
Yes, I agree!
Absolutely true!!!❤❤❤
Yes, absolutely true
😢😢
1992 was a wonderful year, oh boy do i miss it..
How's that? For me, it was awful!
It was ace, rave scene in full swing, clubbing every weekend, music was brilliant, I was having a blast
Wasn't great for me. My wife killed herself. Even the Queen called it the "annus horribalis" There was like a curse being spread amongst us..
But I do love this song.
One of the greatest songs of the late 20th century.... Astounding. Largely ignored sadly, I'll keep it as an undiscovered treasure.
Yes I fully agree and what's worse is its my favourite song on Hormonally Yours that no one normally knows since they all remember Stay!
Sean Egan I agree Sean I'd forgotten this wonderful track
I fully agree!!!!
Totally agree. I was 17 when the album came out and it's still one of my favourites. Just so different for back then and even now.
u r so correct this is a diamond
Lots of people saying this is one of the most underrated songs ever. They beat me to it! Simply fantastic.
‘underrated’ youtube comments section fetish. 2 and counting…
Tell me about it.
On a single I owned, this was side B, and it for sure had the most playtime
I love when females really get deep into music and not just sing what someone else produced for them. They can create amazing stuff.
In my opinion, one of the best lines of lyrics ever written: Life is a strange thing. Just when you think you've learned how to use it, it's gone.
A generation on, the power of this only increases. A song for a full human life, for all ages, for all.
I think you are very wrong there. Many people surely don't like their music at all.
I don't think that you do understand it at all!
One of the greatest bands, unknown, unnderrated. How beautiful are the lyrics, the harmonies? How is this band so unknown?
SHAKESPEARE'S SISTER HAVE NEVER BEEN UNDERRATED...THEY R AT THE VERY TOP
I DONT THINK THIS BAND IS UNKNOWN..IVE ALWAYS KNOWN
#1 8 weeks in the UK with "Stay"
Ex Bannarama👍

There's an a missing...in the banana.

Existential, astral and aural beauty personified!

Such an unsung gem. Marcella’s guitar lead is an absolute lesson in “less is more”.

Couldn't agree more, never got the recognition it deserved
@@martinmain5408 Hell I rated it!!!
Should be. Production costs are huge.
Why underrated? Top hit!!!!!
This is one of the most known songs
One of best songs ever. Lyrics, harmonics, guitar solo, singing. Trully a masterpiece.
The definition of a masterpiece.
Well said... Masterpiece
After 29 years I heard this lovely song again while they played it one WDR4. I was driving on a German highway towards the sinking sun at the horizon. I was driving back straight into the memory lane of the nineties.
I'm here as well because I heard it on the WDR4, fantastic radio station.
@@savagesam205 Yes, I fully agree, Sam!
I heard it today on WDR4 in my car hahaha! Fortunately they told the name of the band. And now I am enjoying it here.
@@bertcremers3769 I heard it on SkyRadio!
HR1 🥰 some months ago. I rediscovered this beautiful song. It's in my epic! playlist. Forever ✨
This is a hidden gem to many , the guitar rift, Omg goosebumps

Exactly that
the greatest song by this group
After "Stay", I totally agree. :-)

Harmonic = chord ?
that simple lead guitar solo send shivers in me for some reason
I had forgotten this, how could I? The whole album was fantastic.
Yes, how could you... 😊
Great and amazing song ❤
After 35 years, still cry'in me😢
It’s almost painful how underrated all of their work (maybe except “Stay”) is… so many people never heard any of these great songs 😢
I wish i can turne back time. So wonderfull
Two very talented people. This song never gets out of date, neither do they.
I agree
The harmonies on this song are out of this world. This is so much better than "Stay" in my opinion. Just much more emotional and resonates more
So glad they're back!!!
Who else is here to celebrate?
Got my tickets!!!
Didn't realise it would sell out so quick.
GLASGO sold out :-(
I’m seeing them live! It’ll be amazing to see them :) my mum was a fab of them
Init
They're back???? I didn't know! :O
Siobhans face is hauntingly beautiful when she looks close at the camera .
I had EXACTLY this reaction to the video. Siobhan kinda defined my standard of a beautiful woman, still does.
Auch nach fast 30 Jahren treibt mir dieses Lied immer noch Tränen in die Augen. Würde gern erklären warum, hab aber keine Worte dafür..

@thulsadoom
Ich kann's absolut nachvollziehen. Know what u mean.
Das erste Lied, wenn die Disco öffnete, und das letzte Lied als 'Rausschmeißer'. Unsere beste Zeit als Jugendlicher 👍
One of the best songs ever written and performed, one of the best music videos ever, one of the all time favorite guitar solos and one of the coolest "girl bands" ever!
Zwei Jahe später: stimmt!
They r so much more
One of the most underrated bands ever made.

So the pigs sitting in their laps made sense to you? I don't really get it. I agree with the rest of your comment, except I like synthesized beats.
No less sense than a couple of nineties chicks dressed as old timey sluts playing guitars and cat's cradled in a tiny closet?
Genau, einfach nur für die Seele!
listening to the music of our youth yearning to return home to a place that no longer exists. Cherish the present because once it's gone it's gone forever.
I realized it was a pretty good song when it was released, but now I have to admit it's a (sadly overlooked) masterpiece.
A true rock moment at 2:50 : "What if I clapped in the middle of your guitar solo?", and somehow it works beautifully :)
An absolute masterpiece..sends shivers down my spine..
It is a masterpiece I very much agree
They just had the perfect blend of voices. I miss radio.
Ich werde dieses Lied ,bis zum Ende hören, dass s hat liebe, es hat Hoffnung,und es ist so toll
One of the most underrated songs of the 90's, without a doubt!
Life is a strange thing, just when you learn how to use it, it’s gone. What a masterpiece of a song and that guitar ❤️
Piękne słowa, dziękuję za nie.
Masterpiece
This is just beautiful
That has to be one of the best guitar solos! Timeless masterpiece.
I guess Dave Stewart give couple of guitar lessons to Marcella :)
Irony?

The best female group EVER!!!The best 'Hello' EVER!!!
How absolutely wonderful are the two of them?
Love this. I am 51 now back then i was still looking for my way in life…great to go back in my mind
How good is that guitar solo. Exceptional.
Haha I was just going to say that again. What a hidden beauty of a solo. Very impressive.
Props Nigel on recognizing the build up
Simple and brilliant. I love how it interrupts one of the chorus and then joins in at the end again.
28 years later and still the same goosebumps
I am here for Herione but this is Good Too !!
Nostalgia. Take me back.
A year later and it's the same for me, these ladies are dynamite together.
same ! .. i love this

Their absolutely best song out there! The lyrics are so so touching! (Thank you Siobhan!)
Great memory from 1992, that never goes away, I will keep switched on listening. ❤
Magical. Haunting. A dusty gem of a song. One of those songs that gets better every time you hear it.
Rocky Horror vibes. Love it.
A beautiful song.. God such a masterpiece from the 90s..pure talent from these underated musical geniuses..well done girls..
Pure essence of 90s... Decade of joy.
C'est complètement ça ! ..la décennie ou on pouvait ne pas se prendre au sérieux ! ..
Aujourd'hui les nouvelles générations.. sont bien

Great! Siobhan Fahey is pure talent!
Talent. Authentic. Relatable. Timeless. This song will never age. Thank you ladies. Masterpiece.

Two very beautiful talented ladies
Tout a fait d'accord.. dommage qu'il n'y ait pas d'équivalent aujourd'hui en 2022 ..
Always loved their music and this video is so haunting, stunning.
"Love is a strange thing- just when you think you've learned how to use it, its gone" great lyrics great video and wonderful music, bravo.
"Life not love ..."

This song, my voice singing solo and Ten Sing live at Dobelmühle July 1996 - me 15 years old, best time of my life, love that song FOREVER!!!

This is one of top videos of all time
That guitar! A jewel of a song
If ever there was a partnership in music these two girls were meant to be
this is a masterpiece
Oui .. des chefs d'œuvres .. de ce groupe des années 90 's ! .
A shiver overcomes me each time I am listening to this song! Fantastic!
Heard the song now and then on the radio since it came out, but never seen the video until now and wow, it hits so hard for some reason.
A visual masterpiece really.
I realy like your discribe onestly
I've seen the video dozens of times and I only just noticed the piglets.
What an excellent guitar solo by Marcella! 😍🎸🎶
I love this entire album
Да... Эпоха ушла. Магия хорошей музыки и классных клипов
One of the most amazing songs ever. Made me tearful then snd it does now, That emotion for me is just not recreated these days
Tout à fait d'accord avec vous j'ai dès frissons beaucoup d'émotion j'adore la vidéo
This video is pure art!
But the quality is pure shit...
i looks exactly like as if it was recorded in the 1910s wich is cool

From 1992! And it still stands so very strong.
