Finally someone got it

[@Craig.Fawley]

She definitely got it

[@jopgjfervcgz]

Really 😏

[@DreamWriterDKS]

I KNOW!!!!!!!! LOL I was still in single digits when this song blew up and I became obsessed with the band. Birth of my Goth life. LOL Then I realized Siobhan (death) was in Banarama and their hits during the 80s. Empress, I have been very sick from COVID like most of the world. Only thing I was really allowed to do was listen to my music and I stumbled onto your page. I've been working very hard for the last few years to change how I can be rocked, primary new is....situation sucks, can't change it. Find a moment that makes you happy, or laugh. You and your page are definitely a very good find. Thank You. I do recommend going down the Shakespeare Sister rabbit hole. Their catalog is amazing.

[@ford6810]

I love watching people react to this video, nobody ever expects Siobhan 🤣 She was actually very drunk during the filming of the video. Luckily she made it down the stairs. She had been in the studio waiting to film all day and drank more than a whole bottle of vodka. I remember watching an interview where she said she couldn't remember filming it at all 🤣

[@mediavideos2176]

Yeah didn't like the second part you can clearly make out she's drunk and her erratic movements and twitching destroyed the mood of the song.

[@tomgrant29]

@@mediavideos2176 I love it. She's playing a weird, disturbing character and for whatever reason the fact that she's obviously hammered kinda works for the character, for me at least. Makes that sudden switch up all the more impactful

[@rayray-xs6xu]

@@mediavideos2176 I thought she made the video! She was awesome, and her voice wow!

[@russellhobbs7245]

@Stanley Blues Yeah me too. I'd have happily pegged it and accepted my fate 🤣

[@user-qb8sn2dw4u]

Yeah I think they are both great. Love when Siobhan appears.

[@jazznblues9496]

I was just waiting for the drop with a big grin on my face! Damn, I forgot that eye roll Siobhan gives as she walks away.

[@leonagoltz2210]

You are the only reactor who actually understands the actually meaning of this song

[@toddrobertson8505]

Shakespeare's Sister was a relatively short lived collaboration between Siobhan Fahey of Bananramma and Marcella Detroit. The contrast and interplay between Marcella's dulcet, operatic tones and Siobhan's darker, rougher voice dug it's way into my soul in High School and never left. Almost anything from Hormonally Yours is pure gold. The breakup was fairly rough and they didn't talk for years. They reunited in 2019 for a tour and released a new single, All the Queen's Horses that seemed to be about their relationship as a singing duo.

[@darrenbuckley2082]

Thanks for that, i had no idea, just listened to it for the first time, loved it.

[@Mourn100]

Not totally correct, Shakespears Sister is actually a project by Siobhan Fahey and started before Marcella was a part. It continued after Marcella left and has been on and off over the years with Siobhan and Marcella reuniting in 2019.

[@alexb4312]

Fantastic comeback in my opinion too.

[@opalviking]

How could I have forgotten about this song? I LOVED this when it came out! I wore the single out!

[@citydweller99]

Your reaction when 'death' came on the scene was on point. Her part in the video and song really elevated this. When the group split..both singers would sing the song as a solo. While both were pleasant versions, it proved they were stronger together than apart.

[@generalsaufenberg4931]

5:30 death was like: "ok, you have won the battle, but I will win the war! see ya in 40 years, for round 2!"

[@tsogobauggi8721]

Hahaha! :)

[@ValyTraveler]

Yep, it was great showdown in the desert with "All the Queens Horses"

[@MsUltrafox]

Yeah, this is one powerful and emotional song. And I love it.

[@Shankulaaa]

You hit it right on the head with your reaction...I cry EVERY TIME I watch this video, it's super meaningful to me.

[@badkitty4922]

This video premiered on VH1, on the morning of my father's funeral. He'd been on Life support and we all begged him to fight and come back. But, he was brain dead after suffering multiple strokes so, we his kids, decided to remove the life support and set his spirit free, instead of keeping it trapped in his body. So when this video premiered, my niece and I were glued to the T.V., sharing dad's favorite recliner, and just letting the tears flow. We connected so deeply with the song and video that we each bought their CD later. And just when we were getting ourselves under control, the video for Silent Lucidity by rock/metal band Queensryche, also premiered. More tears and hitches in our breathing later, we attended my dad's funeral. We'd catch each other's eyes and if either of us was crying a little hard, we'd nod then hug. I still absolutely love both songs but, Stay with Siobhan approaching all smiles and creepy, is my favorite video.

[@timetocook722]

I love love love love your reaction and explanation for this. Thank you. A million hearts to you.

[@Default_Dave]

Your reaction to this song is beautiful :)

[@lucydean4028]

I have never been able to hear this song without tearing up.

[@ajs41]

It's interesting how different people have different reactions. I always smile and laugh when I hear this song, its always been a big joke for me, and most of the people I know. Not making any judgements, just saying how different people's reactions can be.

[@jediwalker2010]

Me neither, and it’s been nearly 30 years😭

[@HighlanderReactionsZA]

I absolutely love this song! It blew me away when it first came out! I love how you have hit the nail right on the head with the battle between love and death. I am a firm believer in the idea that this song has to do with suicide. Specifically with the lines" If this world is wearing thin / And you're thinking of escape" and "But if you try to go out alone / Don't think I'll understand". It shows the impact of the death of a loved one on their partner.

[@Mattyuk1]

Classic song. Beautiful lyrics, music and vocals.

[@brightdaygaming5692]

you 100% get this.... when she said its about love and death. spot on.

[@Gandas24]

One of the sweetest Reactions i have seen so far. I love that song...and I envy you a bit that you could hear it and experience it for the first time now...;) Greetings from Germany Sven

[@sonofthesea3298]

Siobhan Fahey (Irish) who comes in as a "she devil" is part of the original lineup with Bananarama,if you ever heard of them? They got the HUGE 80s hits Venus and Cruel Summer. Marcella Detroit by the "hospital bed" is American,both plays the guitar and are songwriters. Marcella was also the co-writer of the Eric Clapton song Lay Down Sally. This duo won me over when they came out

[@juliesabin5707]

Wasn't siobhan with the guy from eurythmics at some point too? I fekin Loved bananrama, n these 2 - only this song n "I don't care" I really love ❤

[@Itwas2007]

@@juliesabin5707 Yeah, Siobhan was a wife of Dave Stewart from Eurythmics for 8 or 10 years, and you can definitely hear his production on this song. They divorced in 1996 right after release of 3rd SS album without Marcella

[@christobaliancantu7112]

I am going through that right now. Thank you so much for reacting to this older video. Great song! God bless!

[@matthewcarruthers3141]

Very, very good interpretation of the song & video. Well done, that was a brilliant video

[@harrisonmccorkle6481]

That video reached and grabbed Joy Jean and took her for a ride. Joy's reactions were beautiful and priceless..

[@timmyb7734]

The chick playing "death" was part of Bananarama and quit to form Shakespeare Sister as her old band was getting to pop for her liking.

[@BORDERSALAN]

10/10! Very few people get the concept of the video.well done ! ❤️🤩

[@kwinters9898]

this lady is a real delight

[@Faramir70]

LOL Joy you looked so funny in minute count 2:40 you went from loving mode to attack mode 😂😂

[@65cj55]

Marcella Detroit, best female vocalist ever.

[@IvarTheBrainless]

Siobhan wasn''t too shabby either, once she got the Bananarama out of her system.

[@PeterLGଈ]

Damn, girl! You got it! Really got it, actually understood the song. Thank you.

[@pamagnolia]

WOW! Incredible. The vocals, the video, the story. Loved that! Empress, your videos are always wonderful.🌹

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

@Magnolia Aww, thanks alot dear

[@kuririn1975]

I love Siobahn in this been a fan of hers since her Bananarama days with Cruel Summer and Venus

[@takman5628]

Loves your response.

[@markwilken2492]

Beautiful reaction to a song that has meant a lot to me since I was a kid. Just subbed!

[@sharonunfiltered]

Glorious band, especially The Trouble With Andre and Moon Child 💜

[@kristeejoe]

I love your reaction videos. You’re so genuine and you feel the music. You are beautiful inside and out!

[@tanweersharafuddin1919]

Lisa fischer, how can I ease the pain 1991. Oh my goodness you will get chills x YOU'RE GORGEOUS BY THE WAY 🌹

[@rian202003]

Omg Can't believe you found this.

[@SilverFlame819]

I haven't clicked on something so fast in a long time. LOL! Can't wait to see this one. Love this song!!!

[@flytronica]

Great reaction, and I love your accent

[@Mark13091961]

Hi - surprised you found your way to this. It was a massive hit at the time and I recall seeing them perform this live. Great track, so glad you liked it

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

@Mark Roberts, Thank you dear

[@frankhargrave311]

That eye roll at the end tho 😂😂

[@thomassmith2227]

It's a unique song, not many of those. Amazing performance 👏

[@russ4862]

Wow, this was so attention-getting! It really draws you into the drama of the story. Great song and video. Wonderful reaction by you! Here's to your next one! 🙏🙂❤️

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

@Russel Thank you dear 🙌

[@fookutube501]

She a beast(awesome) coming down the stairs @ 2:40 , basically telling her ,she better hurry or i will take him, its really deep

[@siofra3819]

Irish witch

[@ORagnar]

I'd forgotten all about this song. Great theater!

[@boldmeregarden637]

Eye roll at 5.19 death just needs to wait, she gets us all in the end

[@Maerahn]

There was no-one else like these two ladies back in the day - they were doing things, musically and visually, that no-one else at that time was doing. If you like this, you'd probably like a lot of their other ones too - 'You're History,' 'Hello (Turn Your Radio On)' and 'I Don't Care,' to name just three.

[@DesiSJ]

Trouble with Andre is so underrated.

[@ludwiggraupe7571]

And then the second Sister comes. Love it. LG from Vienna Austria

[@michaelchilcott210]

i remember this one brilliant track great review.👍

[@Eurafrican]

Great review my Naija sister. I loved your reaction when Siobhan as the angel of death appears :D You caught the message of the story perfectly and articulated it very well. I'm so happy younger generations are discovering the treasure that is STAY :)

[@cheezal2]

Yes finally someone gets it! but i also like the fact that when Love wins and he wakes,Death seems disappointment, but gives a smirk like oh well ,i'll get you eventually..and walks off.

[@michaelreiter503]

I haven’t watched this video in so long and realized you madam are a very naturally beautiful woman 😊

[@martyalexander5627]

Wonderful review. You totally get it!

[@CaffeineKing]

Great reaction. I wish I could listen to this song for the first time again.

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

Yes Jackson! It’s beautiful

[@ORagnar]

You should check out another one of theirs: " Hello (Turn Your Radio On)"

[@HorrorHound87]

Many blessings just subbed to you 😊

[@sassysteveartist]

Yep. **Her Voice**

[@LongandWeirdName]

Death wins. Always. As things should be. You can win specific battles, but she keeps coming back. She is the most faithful entity in the universe. Never gives up on you. Gives you the greatest gift there is. Final release from suffering. The possessive, inconsiderate human lover that wants you to stay is the evil one, if you ask me.

[@CorTec]

haha. Death is inevitable, but love is not, why not have both.

[@BipolarStevie]

I loved this reaction

[@wns1503]

Good and evil against each other conquered by love

[@santiagopanzardi3482]

When I pay attention to the words I feel is a dark song about addiction. The 1st lady is the appealing side of addiction while the 2nd is the horrible side, consequences and death. The 2nd verse: in the silence of your room, in the darkness of your dreams, you must only think of me, there can be no in between. When your pride in on the floor, I'll make you beg for more!... Anyone that have been or known someone go through addition understand what that verse says. The song and video although very dark, is a masterpiece.

[@bline5891]

This one always gets me, in 2011 at my birthday party I suffered an "Out of hospital VF arrest" and had 7 minutes with my wife and a friend doing CPR before the ambulance arriving, those 7 minutes of CPR are the only reason I am now here typing this instead either being 6 foot under or a very brain damaged individual, now the reason for the back story is that the only thing I remember clearly from all this is hearing my wife telling me (and I do mean telling) "You are NOT leaving me!" I still put that down to helping me fight for life.

[@uszatku9417]

Your reaction is lovely. I subscribed!

[@enochpowel3030]

I love your reaction when death appears.

[@jasontaverner391]

Marcella Detroit (the first woman in the video) sang backup for Eric Clapton. A great example of her powerhouse vocals is "The Core", from Eric's 1977 album "Slowhand".

[@lesleyhanna1666]

Great reaction to a great song. You really got this song.

[@kanaloatonga4735]

Great song ..great video...great reaction ..a beautiful story and voices.

[@billiespence2511]

Loved your reaction ..... you got it !!!!

[@Asmahdan]

As soon as I saw the notification that you were reacting to this song, I said to myself, "Yep, she is going to love this song and Her voice."

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

@Asmahdan And I did love it! Thank you dear

[@cappyGLA]

Joy I just knew you would like this song, as soon as I saw your face light up I kissed my index finger and , placed in on your lips for having excellent taste. This song has a lot of personal meaning to me and to see you enjoyed it too did not me feel so sentimental which I truly am. Thank you x

[@mccorama]

I love Siobhan's eye roll at the end.."cool you have another twenty years, but I WILL be back". You can avoid taxes, but death comes for us all

[@peterbridges5781]

Just a damn good song!!!!

[@masindog]

:D I love u, waited for uor reaction :D

[@smallsmalls3889]

Marcella has a beautiful voice.

[@troedelgerry]

Wow, haven't heard this gem in decades ! What a wonderful song... exactly as your reaction to it. Please don't forget my request of Mylene Farmer. Best wishes from Germany : Gerry

[@heyblossom]

Wait for it .....

[@willwilliams2027]

Love hearing your beautiful accent

[@stevebton]

A great reaction!

🙏🖤🖤

[@Frank75288]

Gary Go - Wonderful

[@ianreid4219]

She was amazing in bananarama

[@jtoddjb]

when everything gets back to normal around here I hope you'll visit NY. I'd like to see reaction videos on not only music, but also the culture. I don't mean NYC, I mean the real NY state, farmland, apple picking in the fall, the leaves changing colors in the mountains, good ole boys with 4X4 trucks, late night bonfires out in the woods or along a river, etc. I was born and raised here so I sometimes take it for granted, but I love to see it all through someone else's eyes, and who better than you.

[@EMPRESSJOYJEAN]

@ToddtheWadd It would be fun to experience all you listed here. We hope everything gets back to normal 🙏

[@pleutron]

Great reaction. One of my favorite songs ever. An ex-gf made me a mix-tape with this song once. I had never heard it. After we broke up, It tooks me months to find out who sang it and track down the album. This was in the mid-90's before it was so easy to go online and find info on anything lol.

[@mariusprinsloo1622]

Personally, for me there were 3 great musical tragedies: Shakespeare's Sister, Terence Trent D'Arby & Billy Idol!

[@brothergrief9531]

Very nice reaction video, thank you.

[@diamonddog439]

I was telling my assistant how much I fancied Siobhan Fahey and I turned around and she was standing behind me 🤩😂😎🕺

[@thomashynes4042]

Imagine I have been listening to this song since it was first released, and I still own the CD to this day

[@WolfsDE]

Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories - Stay

[@hejmonika1001]

The French and Saunders version is also a classic

[@renemela8975]

Please react to Shakespears Sister - Hello (Turn Your Radio On) (Official Video)

[@iansheehy7441]

Lovely reaction

[@martincurrie6243]

I wish love did conquer all. But sometimes no matter how much love and cherish someone, they don't end up staying. You have to live with the grief, because when you truly love someone you never stop loving them, no matter where they are.

[@AngelusaNobilis]

Oh please do Nightwish - Ghost Love Score Official Live at Wacken 2013. You won’t be disappointed. Another powerful voiced woman, but the group is a symphonic metal band. So instead of screaming and growling it’s lyrical and sometimes like movie music. Oh please react to that video.

[@earthsurgery1237]

You must listen to mazzy star. Fade into you. Or anything off the album so tonight that I might see

[@catserver8577]

I must say Marcella Detroit is one of the best singers ever, and apparently it goes without saying, because she never gets mentioned by name. So I am mentioning it.

[@simonsaunders8147]

It's a shame that the "official" video mis-spelt the group name at the end. It is Shakespear's Sister. Marcella Detroit who has a great voice is actually American. The song/video was actually banned in Germany because of it's story content.

[@stefannils2032]

Like the dark one

[@robkennedy9717]

Have you ever heard "Society's Child" by Janis Ian a true haunting song about equality and racism. Written by Janis in 1966 at the age of 13 and released in 1967 an absolute beautiful song that will leave you speechless radio stations were even burned down because of it and many refused to even play it. It's a song that will stay with you forever

[@windiramsey4425]

The other girl was the angel of death

[@Hercules4444]

You are one sweet young lady JOY...🌹 good reaction though 👍

[@polyprinz]

Marcy Levy is the one singing. Americans know her by that name! Marcela Detroit is her stage name!
