This is amazing. The VHS tracking info at the beginning...it's like I'm looking back in time! It's just like my old copy!!! In 1997 I was going through a difficult infatuation with an incredibly beautiful cheerleader, who looked a lot like Saffron. To me, at least. And I was pretty sure she was the most attractive woman I would ever see. Nothing has changed my mind since then. I had been working out alot that summer of 97'. And I had this concert on VHS tape. I worked out to Republica and the Prodigy. Over and over and over. I wonder if Saffron knows how many times I used her to torture my broken heart?
@@jacenk I'd like to turn around and have Saffron as Black Widow appear and stab me in the heart while looking me the eyes. Breathing my last breaths. Needing my death. Whispering in my ear. But aren't you glad it is me that has come? I would like to select that as my form of lethal injection. I am still in love. I have also got to say, the way Saf. describes her personal inputs, reminded me just a little of..tiny bit...of --- I wrote that for/about her as I was watching this vhs for the first time in 25 years. The I watched I watched. ruclips.net/video/Tv8VE3uIqJc/видео.html The previous post came after I finished both. It sill feels like a twisted knife. I wonder if some wounds ever fade?
The only bad thing about Saffron and her band Republica is that we didn't have them back in the '80s. They are that good. Love Republica and have ever since they exploded on the '90s pop scene.
I've got this on VHS somewhere, they showed in on MTV, I remember the fashion designer came on to the runway after they played "Ready To Go" and I laughed cos' she was about 4ft tall!
What a women!!! Loved her from the first time I set eys on her when she did 'Anthem' with N'Joi. What is she upto these days? Is she married? Got kids? Does anybody know what happened to her?
I'm not sure what Saffron is up to these days, BUT, there was a reunion show with the whole band back in 2007 or 2008. I'm pretty sure there are some videos of it on youtube.
Republica is one of the few bands that have autentic 90s essence and sound for pop music, appart from the well known out-selled artists... yep, I love Saffron :3
I remember seeing them play "Ready to Go" live on Nickelodeon on "The Big Help" in either 1996 or 1997. I remember thinking they were awesome but I didn't catch their name. I didn't find out until a couple years later but I heard their songs countless times in between. It's a shame that they were so short lived. I wonder if anyone still has that performance on tape somewhere.
Hi I wished Saffron never got old (she still looks great no though). She's definitely a great dancer and is singing this song live. We missed the fun here, so many top models and her song is great. God bless, Proverbs 31
They were unfortunately for them. Competing in the charts back then with, similar bands like Garbage and The Prodigy (Saffron sang on one of their tracks btw) for an example.
If I was those biches and I had to model clothes while Saffron was singing I wouldn't be smiling either. Especially if I was starving. Somebody give 'em a sandwich.
Saffron shoulda modeled some in her prime years.. she had the look for it. I see her doing Playboy or the SI swimsuit magazine honestly really well, she had the look and personality to be a really solid flirty model.
Whoever thought having models on a runway to look at while a rock band is giving their all on a stage was good idea - madness! Which way do you look? Must have been as disheartening for the bands as it was the models and fashion designers...
So they made this video, and my husband is not in it? THE OUTRAGE! … they may - and do not? - have the 'looks' over her, but damn, SHE KILLS! SRSLY - BARMAYDEN ROSIE-LEE QUVUS
Saffron is drop dead gorgeous!!!!!!! She Steals the Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The band is Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
This group ROCKS! The singer is really DROP DEAD GORGEOUS!
Wish they made more music, unreal sound and Saffron was on fire 🔥
I was and still are in love with her in the 90's!
YESSS I have been looking EVERYWHERE for this! (I have it on VHS somewhere but even if I could find it I'm afraid my old VCR will eat it) Thank you!
Your very welcome, I’m glad I transferred it as I no longer have a vcr

'90s rock, haven't seen this live before thanks for sharing
oh my god i love this video. it could be actually be an official mtv. i miss the 90s.

I remember watching this on TV and taping on the VCR
me too
Hey I've never seen this before . Could u tell me the year this was done ?
Saffron stole the show!
spacepete2000 : 1997.
Which show it is?
She's one for the record books and with that accent makes me love her more.
Wow!
*Rock Concert + Fashion Show*
What Combo!!
her pogo dancing gets my adrenaline going
Just got their CD for 99 pence. Best small change spent in a while! Saffron is hotter than all the catwalk chicks. Her accent is to die for. :-)
Yes Saffron is way more gorgeous than the others.
I only see one drop dead gorgeous in this vid: the one singing.
I've got this on VHS somewhere, they showed in on MTV, I remember the fashion designer came on to the runway after they played "Ready To Go" and I laughed cos' she was about 4ft tall!
i think Saffron is better than the models :)
Loved this ever since hearing it in the 1st Scream movie
the model in 1.28 was thinking....damn saffron is more beautiful than i am
2:59 too haha
+reyelacademico Helena Christensen!
yea i spotted that
That awkward feeling when you're a supermodel but the rock star chick is better looking than you.
True
yes
of course!!!! hahahahaha!
feels like my favourite tune right now
Love this song!
Saffron was the most beautiful. No doubt.
PERFECT SONG!!!!!
What a women!!! Loved her from the first time I set eys on her when she did 'Anthem' with N'Joi.
What is she upto these days? Is she married? Got kids?
Does anybody know what happened to her?
I'm not sure what Saffron is up to these days,
BUT, there was a reunion show with the whole band back in 2007 or 2008. I'm pretty sure there are some videos of it on youtube.
All these fucking super model's are thinking....'I wish I was Saffron'
Republica is one of the few bands that have autentic 90s essence and sound for pop music, appart from the well known out-selled artists... yep, I love Saffron :3
Saffron and the boys kickin' it large. Good tune, lasts well over time, that's for damn sure.
Killer song and video! I have a crush on the lead singer she's hot! Love the song and the video outstanding job and hat's off to the band wow!
5/5 to Samantha/Saffron, the beautiful singer in Republica.
This was not an edited video. It was a fashion show thing MTV had back in the 90's. The Prodigy was on there,too. They were amazing.
The model in 3:17 is HOT,...well, they ALL are HOT,...and the singer,......well,..absolutely SUPER DROP DEAD GORGEOUS! What more can I say??? :)
3:20 que entrada! Que hermosa mujer ❤️❤️❤️

is pure energy
I had this recorded on a vhs tape too! haha wow... this is so old, still sooo cool :) nice to look back on my teen rebel weird years haha

Pure energy and pure sexiness too!

Samantha Sprackling. Which is a great name in itself.
Saffron. Jesus. All I need is a tardis, a jar of KY and a box of condoms. And probably rohypnol...I'm working on it.
Flynn1977 😂😂
im editing her scenes today. she is in new gangsta film LOOTERS TOOTERS AND SAWN OFF SHOOTERS, search the trailer she is in it
How Republica is not a more famous band in incredible to me. How come they only have like 2 video clips?
Their record label went broke.
VHS never died!!! NUNCA MUERES VHS... aunque sale el Blueray u otra wea... sigues vivo!!!
Republica was VERY stylish band, based on 2 videos I've seen.
Did you ever see the Japanese edit of READY TO GO? Equally great.
Must have been soul destroying for the catwalk models to realise Saffron totally outshines them all.
I like the way she says the letter 'O.' ;)
Saffron is more beautiful than all the models on the show together
I swear ... this Saffron, and the Saffron that did "One Love" seem like two different people. It really hurts my head.
Much more cool than the models!
Check out Crusher and Beauty never fades by Junkie XL.
They were unfortunately for them. Competing in the charts back then with, similar bands like Garbage and The Prodigy (Saffron sang on one of their tracks btw) for an example.
burger and chip for any of the models???
ah the 90s
The model at 0:14 and again at 3:35, is that Stana Katic (Beckett from Castle)?
3:41 Shalom Harlow says "DAMN! that singer is HOT!"
wow
I'd take a 1996 Saffron over just about every woman on Earth.
Saffron era un sueño ❤
@figureheadK why ? they are still alive arren't they?
@deltaframes that's funny...love misheard lyrics!
@sfedorov091 no....now it feels like 15 YEARS OLD
best comment eva
Its karen o and the yeahyeahyeahs
@firstperson760 comming to romania in august ;)
you mean No Doubt sounded like Republica!! Republica came first :)
@arepaconqueso1 tienes razon man esta vieja nose ke tiene pero esta rewenaa
If I was those biches and I had to model clothes while Saffron was singing I wouldn't be smiling either. Especially if I was starving. Somebody give 'em a sandwich.
@FilthyMcNastiest Not any more she isan't try google-ing "Republica in Dubai 2011"
I think the producers were depriving Safron of her jelly beans
😘😘😘😘😘😍😎
What year was this?
96, they were still performing the new single - i recorded it on the airing of the first Fashionably Loud
Saffron is the best! this guys should come back.
Los vestidos lenceros del 97
LOL. I do like those competitors though. Not complaining, just answering some random person.
no bullshit vid
What happened to this band?
Saffron is to good looking to be in the contests
was those examples of competition? lol
Sam is beautiful
who is Saffron ?
The woman that's singing. She's the lead singer in the band Republica.😀
but when i look at you your a Gibbon..........YOUR A GIBBON!!!
Must say I don't know the lyrics but. Song reminds me of my wife
This is when models still had some meat to them. Nowadays they are walking skeletons.
poor models, lol, saffron is great
Saffron shoulda modeled some in her prime years.. she had the look for it. I see her doing Playboy or the SI swimsuit magazine honestly really well, she had the look and personality to be a really solid flirty model.
EAT FOOD!
When the singer looks better than the models 😄
Whoever thought having models on a runway to look at while a rock band is giving their all on a stage was good idea - madness! Which way do you look? Must have been as disheartening for the bands as it was the models and fashion designers...
true, though what i would give to have that choice still around on the 'music' channels
Oh my God its Jessie J. Hahaha
very good this band was just a little back ..........they could have been bowie!
So they made this video, and my husband is not in it?
THE OUTRAGE!
… they may - and do not? - have the 'looks' over her, but damn, SHE KILLS!
SRSLY
