Imagine singing that while breaking up with your guy who is playing the bass.

[@bkm2797]

Yeah, that's gotta be super uncomfortable, but like Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac, they found a way to use it in all the right ways.

[@BalbazaktheGreat]

Real Fleetwood Mac energy.

[@johanbruinsma8243]

i thought it was the drummer, but it doesn't matter who it was , it was someone in the band.

[@karenglenn6707]

@@johanbruinsma8243it was the bass player Tony Kanal

[@KevinPerry-wi5dw]

They're still good friends

[@karensilvera6694]

Gwen wrote this after the bass player, Tony Kanal broke up with her. So she's singing a song about a breakup with her ex playing bass on the song.

[@EmmaBadOne]

I've heard that but, and also, the video with the lyrics could be referring to their band breaking up and the industry pushing for her to be solo.

[@ronnie5472]

​​@@EmmaBadOnenope, it was 100% about Tony, she's on record multiple times talking about it. This was at the peak of their success so it was long before she went solo. This song was released in 1995 and her first solo album didn't come out until 2004 👍 "It was originally a love song, but Stefani rewrote the lyrics almost completely after her breakup with the band's bass player Tony Kanal. According to her, "It used to be more upbeat, more of a Seventies rock-type thing. [When] Tony and I broke up... it turned into a sad song."

[@markchasse8992]

YES! And many of her subsequent songs also. Rightfully so, Tony paid a price for that move ;-).

[@jeffbenson7471]

The song was totally about him. The video very much is about the band breaking apart with her getting all the attention (cuz she's gorgeous, hello!). I saw an interview with her about writing the song. At the tune of the interview her heart was alll healed up and she was at a much better place with him but she was recounting how she poured all of her heartbreak from him dumping her into that song and then he had to be around as she sang it out over and over. Anyone who has been through that shit can imagine. She just sorta laughed and said about him having to take that song over and over from her "that poor thing" my thing is, how do you get wrong enough break up witth a beauty like her?!

[@chuckhouse5179]

No Doubt just got back together for the for the first time in 9 or 10 years at this years Coachella. You need to check out that live performance!! She is 54 and in the same shape as she was in 1996 when Don't Speak came out.

[@krinniv7898]

Every teenage boy in the 90s immediately fell in love with Gwen Stefani after seeing this. Bananas killed my soul, however.

[@1BobsYourUncle]

A lot more than teenagers had a huge crush on her. 🥸

[@stefaniebrauer128]

I love seeing people get to watch just how epic Gwen Stefani was back in the day as well as now! She is a BADASS !!

[@amyaeschbach3581]

Ska!!! She’s amazing!!! Since she married Blake Shelton, awesome video or 50 yr old Gwen coming onto stage at Blakes country tour and singing this!!!!!

[@johneicher7914]

Its hard not to "fall in love" with her in this video. The girl has extreme talent and charisma.

[@blurpledragon2779]

She was gorgeous then !!!!

And abs.

[@mariajobson739]

She lost this bass player boyfriend here in this band and got herself a real man...Blake!

[@mariajobson739]

😮

[@mariajobson739]

She's rockish- punkish somewhere in the middle. Definately "light" rock, almost pop.

[@anthonywilson7681]

I watch a lot of NBC programming, so I know about Gwen and Blake meeting on the Voice, but another comment just referred to her being 54 and that blew me away. Another thing that blew me away is Blake is only 47.

[@Juan-os4hs]

And she became a "tradwife" ❗❗❗

[@cynicalguy]

sir, you should do the full "Just a Girl" - it's not about being a girl per se, it's about how men treat women like lesser beings. Gwen is a talented artist, and No Doubt is absolutely a ska/punk group - they're just one of those groups where they're talented AF and they can do anything they want.

[@okcdog5439]

I was thinking this, too. Especially as a "girl dad" it might help him see the world they'll live in through a different lens.

[@Ecosse57]

it's a great performance and i'm a fan of their/her music but the lyrics of "just a girl" is delusional 4th wave feminist tripe.

[@christineg8151]

I've heard that song for years, but it only struck me about six months ago exactly how much pure RAGE was contained in the lyrics.

[@Deathbird_Mitch]

The song Spiderwebs is another banger from back then.

[@connielyons562]

As a Mom of 2 daughters (5years apart) who was married to a man 13 years older than I (he was born in 1950 and I in 1963) , He couldn't and wouldn't Understand things they were going through,No Doubt, Cranberries, Linkin Park,Green Day were The ONLY music in the House!!

[@jamieserrano827]

I think Gwen Stefani has that old Hollywood Jean Harlow look, and she did actually play the fictional version of Gene Harlow in the aviator

[@h.p.chicken]

You should absolutely check out Just A Girl. All of those songs written about famale experience are pointless if nobody but women listen to them. Trust me, we already know. We really do love it when the men in our lives - our husbands, fathers, brothers, friends - get on board with trying to understand what's going on. The point of music is to share individual perspectives of the broader human experience ✌️

[@MrJasonshores364]

%100

[@exprezzion]

my feminine side was all about this music as a tough/hard teen, and Cyndi, Madonna, Tina as a kid when I was playing football, talking mad mad shit to all comers, scrapping and being a little man, dude. Open your mind Pegasus, love ya boy!

[@helmedon]

Gwen Stefani is just a treasure. Sweet and funny, incredible voice and style.

[@JamiHeart]

Don't Speak came out in like '95 or '96. This is the probably the most radio friendly song on the album. You should definitely listen to Spiderwebs and Just A Girl. Ska had quite the moment in the mid 90's.

[@beto4388]

Yes, spiderwebs and just a girl

[@slackerlitgeek]

This comes from their breakout album "Tragic Kingdom," which is possibly one of my all-time favorite start-to-finish albums. They're definitely a ska/pop-punk band, but this ballad was their first mega-hit single, around 1994 or 1995, I think. Worth looking into more for sure, especially as you start to track how the sound of the band changed over the years.

[@JustTanya.]

Yes, I'm the same way with the start-to-finish of "Tragic Kingdom". I also get a kick out of the track "Tragic Kingdom" because it has the recording of the the announcement from Disneyland at the Matterhorn ride "Please Remain Seated, Permanecer Sentados Por Favor". Being a SoCal girl, and as a kid always at Disneyland, it brings back memories.

[@chuckster255]

"Tragic Kingdom" is a play on the Magic Kingdom, the nickname for Disneyland which is about a half mile away from the house No Doubt used on Beacon Ave in Anaheim CA. The house is where most, if not all, of their 2nd album "The Beacon Street Collection" was recorded.

[@traceythompson1092]

Also Blood Sugar Sex Magic from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers!

[@MassBoost]

Just a Girl was their first "mega-hit", as that song went platinum and was the first song to make the charts. It was the only song to make it on the Billboard Top 100 which happened in December of 1995, debuting at 84th it's first week. Don't Speak wasn't released till 1996.

[@mwdavis77]

I saw No Doubt in 96 as an opening act for a bigger band, and they stole the entire show. Incredible live energy and Gwen Stefani is an amazing singer.

[@julieb3996]

I saw Gwen Stefani and Weezer. Those were the days

[@mikeanderson3334]

I was bartending in a small club in Costa Mesa, 3 band show.. No Doubt opened , Shrinky Dinks (became Sugar Ray) then the headliners who decided they were too big for our club because their video had played on MTV the week before... They were called Urge Overkill. No Doubt were backstage when they heard the UO people complaining saying they wanted a shorter set, so No Doubt said how long do you want us to play? Amazing times..

[@epishmeh]

I’m in my late 40’s, and I did listen to bands like No Doubt in the 90’s. To this day, I still consider this song to be one of the best ever at capturing the feeling of heartbreak at the moment of a breakup. Great reaction video!

[@MegsD79]

This song, I'm Just A Girl, and Spiderwebs were my. Favorite No Doubt songs but when Gwen went solo and made a song with Eve from the Ruff Ryder's and my rap music and POP music worlds collided was when I fell completely in love with her. She's made some amazing music over the years and continues to do so! ❤❤❤

[@kcarr9589]

You should check out “Just a Girl” having a daughter, it’s about how society treats women and standing strong as a woman. It’s an anthem, really.

[@michaelwhelan2376]

What is even more amazing from Punk/Ska roots. Gwen was married to Gavin Rosdale of the rock band from the UK BUSH. She is now married to country mega star Blake Shelton. She has 2 number one country songs with Blake. Blake has 28 number one songs...plus she is on the Voice as one of judges. Amazing talent!!

This song is beautiful. Well written, catchy, the message, the music, emotion. A perfect song all around.

[@wilshade]

Gwen Stefani is a pretty darn good song writer. They all cross a few genres. Come this winter, check the songs she put on her Christmas album. She wrote and performed some excellent original holiday songs. And most of them will get your feet moving.

I met No Doubt in 97 when she looked like this!!! So beautiful it was distracting!!!

In my opinion her music was better with the band than solo, but u can't deny her "icon" status in the music world

[@iancollins65]

As a 90’s kid, No Doubt was one of the biggest acts in the world. This was them at their peak, but they wrote lots of great music. Gwen is a powerhouse female doing it the way it should be done.

[@KarenGlenn-ve2dw]

Reminds me of someone I didn’t treat well who loved me so much and he finally said enough. This song came on in the car and I sobbed and sobbed. He never gave in and I married someone else (which didn’t work). It’s been 27 years and I still love and miss him, but it’s too late. Every time I hear this it all comes flooding back. I love you P. Always. Such a great song.

[@lifegood3322]

I was so in love with her when I was young! She sings like an angel! 😂

[@mf-qi8gn]

No Doubt's musical style has been characterized as ska punk, ska, pop rock, new wave, alternative rock, pop-punk, reggae, reggae fusion, and punk rock

[@AG-OldmanBrick]

Tragic Kingdom is such a good record from front to back. Tragic Kingdom was released in 1995, album is certified Diamond with 16mil sold worldwide. Number 1 album on Billboard 200. Hit songs were "Just a Girl", "Spiderwebs", "Don't Speak"- Except for "Just a Girl", which peaked at 23 on Billboard 200, none charted due to no commercial single release for "Don't Speak" and "Spiderwebs". Don't Speak was #1 on Billboards Hot 100 Airplay charts for 16 straight weeks. Minor hits with "Excuse Me Mr." and "Sunday Morning". "Don't Speak" written by Gwen and her brother Eric(who left the band once this album was finished) is about Gwen's break-up with bass player Tony Kanal (guy with the buzz cut at the beginning of the mv picking the orange)...So No Doubt is kind of like a Fleetwood Mac of the 90s; except not every song written was about bad member relationships with each other. I would give a listen to this album in it's entirety. "Just a Girl" and "Spiderwebs" of the major hits fit more in the Ska mold.

[@christina9841]

She wrote this about her ex, Tony the bassist.. they had a long term relationship, then broke up and she wrote this song, but they stayed in the band together.. she went on to marry Gavin Rosdale, who cheated on her (??!!) .. now she's married to country star Blake Shelton, who says he was so impressed with her, she wasn't like anyone else he'd met in "the industry",she drove herself to The Voice in a black minivan and is a mother first.. she seems like such a cool person. When you listen to her in interviews she just has a certain vibe that is hard to put into words. Apparently she goes to Church every Sunday... I just love her so much. I would defnitely suggest checking out "About a Girl".. she's such a ham in the video, I think you would like it. :)

[@guyray1504]

And Blake, who had no kids, loves her three boys. Moved her and the boys out of the big city and moved to Oklahoma.

[@betsybabf748]

The song which made them famous. She wrote it when her boyfriend Tony Kanal (the black guitarist standing next to her in the video) broke up with her, breaking her heart. The break-up song about him is what gave him his career.

Yep. Imagine being that strong and beautiful as a woman. Taking the spotlight and running with it. You’re right. She is stunning. Superstar. Great reaction 👊🏼

Yeah, they were 100% not Punk.

[@chelseahaley8350]

​@anthonyv6962 I'm sorry...Excuse my ignorance....Pop Punk!

[@touchstoneaf]

She brought a voice to a lot of us girls in the 90s. She had a toughness and but also could be "prettygirl", which told us we could be more than one thing. She was very important to a lot of us. A great song to check out is Underneath It All, which features a Jamaican (i think) artist named Lady Saw who should have gotten a lot more are play after she collaborated with them. You have to get the long version though to hear that part, because they cut it out a lot on the radio versions, just like they used to cut out Left Eye's raps from TLC songs on the radio (which is a tragedy).

[@JemJam2976]

No Doubt was Ska. Gwen Stefani has gone on to have a big solo career since the release of Don't Speak which I believe came out around 97. You might have heard Hollaback Girl from her.

[@carolynnewcomb2153]

[@carlakane3313]

She was a badass chick from the OC and brought with her a multicultural aesthetic and new fashion styles that really clicked with girls and women (I was mom in my 30s in the 90s). She was a different type of role model for our girls. Strong with a soft center.

[@fibromyalgia_yarn_resin]

I love No Doubt! I believe they’re coming out with a new album. Can’t wait for that! I saw them in HI when I was in high school, I never had so much fun during that time in my life.

I had Tragic Kingdom on repeat when I was in high school.

[@SophiaKilkis]

wow. for some reason ur reaction made me go watch the '90s biggest hit in europe..i think i m getting old because i miss this sound

[@cjonesufc]

I really liked No Doubt when they first got big, but my favorite song that features Gwen Stefani is the cover of the song “You’re the Boss” on The Brian Setzer Orchestra’s album “The Dirty Boogie”. Brian Setzer got famous as the lead singer and guitar player for the rockabilly trio, Stray Cats around 1980. He basically fell off until a big band swing group formed in his neighborhood and teased him about jamming. He took them up on it and they worked up a set of old songs which the covered as a full band with Brian ripping it up on guitar and vocals. They played their first show to a basically empty venue, but word spread and they had lines around the block within a few shows. I would say “You’re the Boss” is worth checking out even though it’s not really well known, but if you want to check out something from The Brian Setzer orchestra I would recommend “Switchblade 327”, “Rock This Town”, or “This Cat’s on a Hot Tin Roof” which is, in my opinion, one of the best album openers of all time.

[@Washougalite1]

I love Stray Cats 😂

[@nosliwec]

The Bananas song is Gwen Stefani's Hollaback Girl during her solo career. (I'm) Just a Girl is a No Doubt song. Other No Doubt song to check out is Spiderwebs, Hey Baby, Hella Good, and Settle Down.

[@sumonjamal1653]

This was No Doubt's 2nd album 'Tragic Kingdom' in 1995... It became a huge hit in 1996 after a slow start; their debut album from 1992 was not a commercial success... The band was formed by Gwen Stefani's brother Eric Stefani and his friend John Spence, who was the male vocalist alongside Gwen on female vocals... Sadly, John Spence took his own life, leaving Gwen on lead vocals. Tony Kanal (bass) was an early member and he and Gwen became a couple... Adrian Young (drums) and Tom Dumont (guitar) eventually rounded out No Doubt. After touring for the 1st album, Eric Stefani announced he was leaving No Doubt after the 2nd album... and then, Tony Kanal opted to end their romantic relationship... Gwen was understandably upset and poured her lyrics on 'Tragic Kingdom' from her heartbreak and disappointment towards Tony (who was supportive of her creativity) ... Gwen admitted that she and Tony still remained the core of No Doubt after her brother left the band...

[@iron_rush_theater1246]

Spiderwebs was their big breakout hit. Their first album was a lot more SKA than Tragic Kingdom (second album) was.

[@karlweir3198]

[@heathershaffer90]

They were together for awhile.... SUPPOSEDLY this is the song where A CERTAIN MUSIC LABLE CAME TO HER WITH AN OFFER FOR JUST HER NOT HER BAND..... AND THIS IS LIKE THE GOODBYE SONG TO HER BAND BEFORE SHE GOES.... IM PRETTY SURE.... I REMEMBER THIS DRAMA WHEN IT HAPPENED

[@stevehamilton8824]

Need to check out "Bathwater" and "Hella Good". This is an excellent song and showcases Gwen's voice. Love this band. Gwen wrote this song about her relationship with bassist, Tony Kanal. The two were together for a long time and Tony wanted to end it after 7 years. This song came from that breakup, as did a number of songs off of the album TRAGIC KINGDOM. The video is cool because it shows how the lead singer in the band always gets the attention and how the band gets pushed aside even while they play an important part.

[@annkeathley7794]

I know you have been told this, but it is Gwen Stefani. Early 90s No Doubt was charting for sure!! Nice reaction!! 💜
