Divinyls formed in 1980 fronted by lead singer Christina Amphlett. After scoring several gigs in pubs and clubs, they were discovered by Australian director Ken Cameron, who was in the midst of making the movie Monkey Grip. This discovery led Divinyls to providing the entire soundtrack for the film and also offered Amphlett a supporting role playing a temperamental rock singer based on herself. The song "Boys in Town" was released from the soundtrack as the band's debut single and garnered commercial success when it charted in the top ten on the Australian singles chart. It was the first song that Amphlett and McEntee had written together.
When Divinyls released their debut studio album Desperate in 1983, four of the songs from the Monkey Grip soundtrack were also included, in particular "Boys in Town". However, on the Australian release of Desperate, "Boys in Town" and the other songs previously seen on Monkey Grip were omitted.
Amphlett garnered widespread attention for performing on stage in a school uniform and fishnet stockings, and often used an illuminated neon tube as a prop for displaying aggression towards both band members and the audience. Originally a five-piece, the band underwent numerous line-up changes while Amphlett and McEntee remained as core members, before its dissolution in 1996.

Good quality videos of Divinyls are hard to find. This one is no exception. The only decent one you may be able to get your hands on if you are determined and hunt hard enough for it, is a 'Rage TV' capture from Australia. The quality is excellent on the original capture although there is an inferior "copy of a copy of a copy" doing the rounds and it's not very good. I've got them both. Needless to say I've used the quality capture to upscale to 1080p.
Some cleaning of the image was done to remove bits and pieces of crap. I've decided not to remove some black 'scratches' that came from the slightly damaged video film that was the origin of the digital transfer. They are not very noticeable and adds a kind of 'authenticity' to the age of this old classic from Australia. A bit of sharpening and detail enhancement was also done.
I hope you all enjoy this video upscale. Please share the link with your friends and I hope it doesn't end up being blocked in your country.

She is an Aussie rock legend!
Divinyls were brilliant and more that just I touch myself their only USA hit. They were stars in Australia. Sadly Chrissy died years ago.
She was a one-off for sure.
Seen them live in Western Australia,fantastic live,unfortunetley it was a Australia and promoters as well as managers never seen the big picture and travel on tours overseas,it actually helps a band a lot to visit other studios and musicians in all parts of the globe,we say here it was a cash grab for managers,only band are Inxs who toured a lot,the story is when Michael was vulnerable at 2 years before his death the actual manager got him to sign over all music rights and so,another unhappy family of M8chael Hutchence they could not pursue the manager,that's just one example here
And even towards the end there she was still sexy as hell
@@harrow2355 Saw.
The mic stand is a 240v flouro tube wired and gaffed together!
i worked on shows with Divinyls many times in the 80's. Great live band and awesome talents. RiP Chrissy!
Cheers!
That's so cool! Was mesmerized by that mic stand as a little kid! Sidenote: my 13y/o guitarist is growing his hair out and he looked in the mirror last week and said "my hair is heading into MarkMcCentee areas!" Good music always crosses generations!
@@julesschulte9293 Yeh Marks hair certainly is ..... Mark!
Did you know "Robbo"? (Greg) - he roadied for them too. My husband went with him a few times to help out too.
@@suesmith7946 No, I didn't work directly for Divinyls, I was with other bands on multiple bill shows, however I did know a few guys from their crews over the years.
Divinyls impact on the Australian music scene should never be underestimated. Just incredible.
Chrissie went hard in the 70-80s when all the acts were male.
Divinyls at Selena's in Coogee in the early '80s....great memories.
Divinyls at Selina’s was sooo good! I lived 5 minutes from Coogee Bay Pub. Good times ❤
I heard an interview with a famous rock photographer who had basically seen and photographed 1000's of live bands including most of the most famous and he said in that interview that Chrissy Amphlett was the most mesmerizing live performer he had every seen. High praise. RIP.
I grew up with this music. I miss going to the local pub and seeing these guys, Cold Chisel, Australian Crawl etc on a Saturday night.
Chrissie was and is a legend, truly missed.
Back in the days of real music :)
The 1980s were the golden years of Australian music.
Did you goto The Empire in annandale?
@@not1iota229 Nope - Manhattan, Waltzing Matilda, Mountain View in Victoria south eastern suburbs.
We were lucky with the awesome music we had as kids, Divinyls, Skyhooks, the church, mental as Anything, etc the list is very long.
This song was musically so far ahead of it’s time. Still sounds brilliant 40 years later. Christie sadly died from breast cancer. Great Aussie band.
The pub rock scene in '80's Melbourne was absolutely world class. Divinyls, Cold Chisel, Australian Crawl, Angels, Midnight Oil,INXS....what a great time it was
Yes my friend. Weren't we lucky to be young in those days.
RIP Chrissy Amphlett we love you and we miss you babe.
👍🤓🇦🇺
Aussie music is starting to be heard. Better late than never.
Great song from a great band! This was (I think) their first big hit. They were “discovered” playing the pub scene in Melbourne and asked to do the soundtrack of a film called Monkey Grip (starring a young Noni Hazzlehurst). Chrissy and the band played side characters in the movie as well as performing the music for the film.
To get a real feel for Chrissy’s stage presence at this time check out something like the song Elsie (live).
Chrissy Amphlett is a true legend of the Aus music scene, and sadly missed.
I remember that show rock on early 80s I was 13 and we loved this band
My fave Divinyls track . Chrissy was a rock god we miss her 🥲
And their first hit round 1980 timeline
Yes. She was above us.
Saw Divinyls almost 40 years ago in Sydney when this song was released. The bass player was formerly with Air Supply back in the late 1970s. Yep, Air Supply.
That was why he told me to F Off. I took my mother's Air Supply album and asked him to sign it as a joke. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@howellsmithbrad Oh fuck me, that would have been fun to watch.
Holme building, Sydney University Union . 1981?
Anywhere near the Fisher library. Down from Glebe Point Road? For a brewsky or two.
Chrissy was an awesome performer. Slightly crazy but awesome. Loved the Divinyls.
Often PISSED herself on stage from the excitement of it all! Now THAT'S dedication to your craft!
Other great songs of Divinyls was “Only Lonely”, “Sleeping Beauty”, “I’ll Make You Happy”, “Science Fiction”, “Pleasure and Pain”, “Temperamental” and “Punxsie Thing”! 🍻
Im jealous, im on your side . Awesome band, legendary front woman 👍
All awesome classic songs!
Dude literally everything though. They never did a boring song, even when some would argue they sold out a bit for the U.S. market, purists like me have to admit it was still good music and carried at least some of the attitude over.
She is a rock icon that died way too young!! …. Miss you!
RIP Chrissy Amphlett
I was privileged enough to see Divinyls live on the local pub scene back in the 90s in Melbourne, they are rock legends, unforgettable!
You should have seen them live back in 80s they were on fire.
They were a fun band. RIP Chrissy.
Omg, omg, omg, literally scrolling through YT and saw Divinyls - had to stop and watch :D truly epic and can't say anymore than that lol
I miss the pub days, Chisel, The Angels, Dyvinlys, Radiators, Crowded House, down at the Local Inn in West Ryde, Sweethearts, Bondi Lifesaver Stagedoor Tavern etc great times.
My first Under 18's concert had Divinyls, INXS and Mental As Anything. I was 19, so sue me, They were all awesome. That was 1982.
Same here.
@@mikakamppi4826 I was 15 loved Dyvinals
Chrissy was a great artist, sad she passed away with complications from the illness MS
She had a long battle with breast cancer . Due to her MS (which I also have) she was unable to have chemo or radiation and therefore died of the cancer. There are better treatments for MS now, however, and things could have been different for Chrissy. She was a goddess.
@@juliabutler7667 She had a heart of Gold & one of Australia's great Rock front women
This was their debut single.Chrissy played Judy Garland in “Boy from Oz” opposite Hugh Jackman.
WOW - this brings me back to Blue Light discos of the early 80's when i was a young teenager and these were #1 hits. For those who dont know....Blue Light Discos were run by the police (As police car light sirens flashed blue - hence the name blue light disco's) and attended by the police for discos for young teens. A safe place for late night disco's with music screens up high - all the latest hits...and endless soft drinks for the one price. Sadly they discontinued them by the 90's sometime. We danced and rocked saturday nights away to all of this !
Memories
Been a long time since I’ve heard of them, but attended a few back in Albany, WA.
38 years ago, I was bopping to this on countdown.
Countdown launched so many young Aussie bands
Thanks for doing the Divinyls. Great first album.
Chrisy's older cousin is another famous Aussie singer, Little Patty. Little Patty entertained troops during the Vietnam War and was best known in the early days for her surfer tracks, but Chrisy was a rare one, vale.
Proud to say she's an Aussie and that was their first hit of many. She was an amazing entertainer. RIP Chrissy we miss you.
They were that good live to, of course.Saw them in concert in the 80's when I could still dance that fast! Lol, but seriously. This band absolutely rocked live 🎉❤
Love Chrissy RIP. Such a legend
Miss Chrissy so much...what a babe. RIP X
Divinyls , one of the best band ever to come out Australia
That mike stand was almost 40 years ago. Chrissy Amphlett died in 2013 at 53, so she'd be over 60 now. She'd have been about 20 when this song came out.
I was in the front row watching the Divinyls and Chrissy Amphlett during the Boys in Town tour. When she brought out that mic stand and the band kicked off that song I lost my mind! P.s. that was 1983, I think. Lol. Chrissy wore her trademark Catholic school uniform, fishnet stocks and white court shoes. She will always and forever be one of my female rock icons. Australians mourned the day she passed away. Gone too young.. Thanks for the memories, Chrissy. RIP
Chrissy Amphlett, the bad girl of Australian rock but hugely talented. Another band to come out of Australia in the 1980s, the golden years of Australian rock. The Divinyls were absolutely fantastic live.
Chrissy passed away in 2013 of breast cancer. Heaven or hell will never be the same. Rest in peace.
Divinyls were my favourite nand of the late '70's & early 80's & saw the many times. Another great song showcasing Chrissy at her best is "In My Life "
Awesome band and song. I love how each band member is dressed in a totally different music genre!!
A full Divinyls concert is currently on Netflix AU
Awesome song! Divinyls were always great.
Chrissy Amphlett was an absolute sweetheart of a lady, she used her body as party of the performance, sadly she passed a number of years back to Breast Cancer. She was a true one of a kind, her cousin was famous, Little Patty, another Singer , who Was playing to the Aussie troops in Vietnam when the famous Battle Of Long Tan broke out in a Rubber Plantation, the movie Danger Close - Battle For Long Tan is a must watch
FYI this was their first ever hit here in Australia 1979 I think and her Light sabre mic stand was infact a fleuro tube. Nothing special but looked great. Check out Divinyls Love School and some Skyhooks songs maybe
Chrissy actually lived around the corner from us & I managed to wander into a lunch get together when I was a kid lol. I wanted to be her when I grew up.
Legend, gone too soon
A lot didn’t realise just how good she was ❤️
Their whole list is worth listening to. Chrissy is much loved is Australia. Most red blooded boy had a 'thing' for her. Chrissy said her on stage persona was a different person to herself. But when in 'the zone' she owned it. I love Divinyls and more so, Chrissy. Check out Divinyls - Hey Little Boy. Compare it to Syndicate of Sound - Hey Liitle Girl. As it's a cover. Most people don't know that. Also the song "SIREN"! Written by the guitarist and only song Chrissy shares the vocals with. Also, I believe their song "Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore" was the theme song for 'Buffy Vampire Slayer'. Chrissy ROOLS!
Chrissie was an Aussie legend! 1 of many that came out of Belmont High back in the day along with the likes of Denis Walter etc!
RIP Chrissie, you were 1 of a kind babe! \m/
Aussie legend.
Me and a mate saw this band heaps of times back in the very early 80s and she'd wear a school girls short dress, with fishnet stockings suspenders and stiletto heals. We'd get right in front of her, front and center of the stage and we were 18 year old boys looking up her dress and she propped one foot up on the fold back speaker, squatted down, pulled her knickers aside and pissed everywhere. Now I seen her asked about this later in life and she laughed and said she couldn't remember if she did or not, me and my mate are witnesses
Diviynls,Australian rock and roll royalty! Fronted by the one and only Christina Amplett! ARIA hall of fame member,RIP.
Elsa , you must check out their song Elsa, Live of Course mind blowing. RIP sweet Chrissy....
Chrissy Amphlet was like a female Angus Young with the school uniform and boundless energy she was diagnosed with MS and the poor girl copped a double wammy she was diagnosed with breast cancer as well which in the end killed all that talent left us too soon RIP Chrissy
When they toured the states in the 80s an old friend of mine no longer with us went and seen them. He met Mark (blonde guitarist on Les Paul) outside by the bus. They chatted for a bit and Mark told him that Chrissy pretty much got on the bus right after the show and went to sleep. She had a rough flu.
My friend said you couldn't tell it from her performance, she was firing on all cylinders. But he was bummed he didn't get to meet her.
Chrissy Absolute legend! RIP great 80's band. They were a raw rock band in the 80's she was such a energetic lead singer sadly missed.
The Australian pub scene forged world class performers....Chrissie and the Divinyls were one of them.
Sleeping Beauty is my favourite of theirs.
I used to go see them when ever I could. The lead singer had a relationship with the guitarist, They took a break when he became very ill, later they reformed, and I managed to do security at one of their concerts. Had a signed picture from her & had it mounted in the house(my partner at the time was super annoyed about it & we had many arguments about taking it down. Never did tho). Not long after that concert she passed away, and I cried
So good! Please do more Divinyls!!
There wasn't a red blooded young Aussie male that didn't want to meet Chrissy back in the day. Um, Er, Well, so I hear.
They were a great Aussie pub band, that should have done so much better overseas.
So guy's...you know how Angus Young of ACDC STILL wears what is essentially a 1950's/60's Australian schoolboy's uniform on stage? Chrissie Amphlett is wearing the girl's equivalent in this clip. And Courtney Love has famously said she stole Chrissie's style in the early days of Hole.
Love that! Chrissy was a big cake rush for me back in the day. R.I.P. Chrissy.
Always loved. R.I.P. Chrissie
I saw them open for the Ramones what a great concert
Anyone who saw the divinals live will all same thing, she is amazing
Chrissy was an absolute star,her voice was unique and sounded like no other. Sadly she was taken much of young from cancer.❣️
The keyboard player was one of my high school music teachers
Only 13k views this is a kick arse tune an Australian classic, music like this doesnt exist anymore.
Such a great band. RIP Chrissy, you were brilliant.
Check out Siren by the Divinyls.
Lots of good Divinyls songs, but this one holds a special place in my heart because it was the first I heard.
Nobody sung better nor wore a schoolgirl uniform like Chrissy Amphlett. Amphlett by name, Amped by nature. 10 years gone and sorely missed from the AusRock scene. RIP Chrissy 😢
The mic stand she used is a neon light tube.
Chrissy Amphlett was simply Australian pub rock royalty. Her energy and mystique were legendary and the band were tight as a duck's bum live. I last saw the Divinyls circa 1985 in in their natural habitat at the smoky, sticky floor, sweaty Dee Why hotel. We were right up the front, Chrissy was wearing a plastic dress and you could see the sweat running down her legs. She really was something else.
Sadly no longer with us; she survived breast cancer, but then succumbed to multiple sclerosis. We really miss her here and there will never be another like her.
Vale Chrissy, hope you are still making your special style of music wherever you are now ❤
Looooove the divinyls! I grew up listening to them and loved Chrissy amphletts voice
Chrissy made me spill more seed than Mohammed Ali at a bird feeder back in my youth. RIP Chrissy!!
RIP Chrissie. Caught them live a few times, her performance was wild! ☮️
80s rules period. Thanks for the music. Rip Chrissy
love your guys reactions
Chrissy was the Queen of OZ Rock, RIP Chrissy. Seen the Divinyls a few times live. Chrissy was Sassy and had amazing stage presence and loved singing live.
Australia 70s and 80s pub rock is full of amazing bands
A hidden gem I forgot about this song
She had a reputation of being an absolute killer party girl in her youg days. RIP Chrissy.
RIP Chrissy Amphlet
Boys in Town was their debut single in 1981and I'd just seen them a few weeks earlier at The Piccadilly Hotel in Kings Cross, Sydney.
Lead Singer, Chrissie Amphlett was wild and crazy.
Things she did on stage were outrageous and probably illegal.
Found out much later in interviews with her, that it was her Alter Ego up on stage.
She was a quiet and demure woman in reality.
RIP 2013 Chrissie Amphlett The QUEEN of Australian Rock
Can we 👏👏👏 the Divinyls' drummer‼️
No one hits a guitar like an Aussie..🤘
great song, look at her face where you paused it, hehehe 🤣
Another fabulous Aussie band...R.I.P. Chrissy....she passed from breast cancer in the 2000's I think. R.I.P. she was an original and much loved.
I can't believe with everything going on in that video you would obsess over the mic stand!! It wasn't even a lightsaber!!!
Good old 80s pub rock, Seen them many times.
Wow i havent heard this before. Amazing
Like so many Aussie bands from that time they were awesome live!! Saw them a few times and partied my arse off every time! 🥳 R.I.P. Chrissy Amphlet, you were the best!🎸💃🏻
LONG before Madonna there was CHRISSY AMPHLETTE!!!
You guys missed one of the best lines of the song with the first pause: " I was always driving home all the boys in town..." Great use of the double entendre.
I love u guys!
I roadied for the Divinyls when my brother's band was the support act for them when I was much younger. My brother almost got hit in the head with her/that mike stand, when he was in the audience and tried to look up Chrissy's skirt 🤣🤣🤣
I remember this song on the radio in the '80s I always thought it was Scandal
I reckon you'd enjoy The Seekers - We Are Australian (Special Farewell Performance).
Dyvinyls is like required reading for us rock heads down here in aust
RIP Chrissy, A true legend.
Chrissy is a Rock legend here in Australia.
Courtney Love said she was an inspiration
