    Mariska's voice and tone in this song is really powerful. She takes a Shocking blue (Robbie) song and makes it hers.
    Just can't take my eyes of her even though I've watched this many times ,the same with all the early footage of SB . 🎸❤️👍

      @ mickael mcallister. Agreed fully. She was/is the real front man (woman) in the band. But really Robbie van der Leeuven wrote all the songs of the band, and he only was/is the real leader (!). BfK.

    Such a great song - one of the best from Shocking Blue, a very underrated band who are sadly known in the US as a one-hit wonder with their massive hit "Venus". Nothing could be further from the truth as they pumped out album after album full of terrific songs with many versatile styles. Mariska is also a pioneer being one of the first woman fronted rock bands, of which many followed suit including Fleetwood Mac and Blondie.

    • @Hanzey1966
      @Hanzey1966 2 года назад +7

      Yeah , certainly as a European Female ,,PowerHouse,, She was pioneering for sure . Mariska started her own HardRock Band ,,Veres,, in the mid. Eighties. With that She blew away ALL Female Voices here in Europe. You do mention Fleetwood Mac (Stevie Nicks) and Blondie as USA follow ups ...But You allready had Janis Joplin ,Grace Slick (Jefferson Airplane) and Ann Wilson (Heart) just to name a few.
