Shakespears Sister interview - TOTP: The Story of 1992

[@templocal]

They shall be really thankful to each other. Marcella's immense talent inspired Siobhan to become a better singer and writer, play instruments, etc, and she became quite a musician herself. On the other side, Siobhan pushed Marcella to stardom and she got recognized as a musician. Their solo stuff is great, but all the collaboration stuff between them two is amazing.

[@hector-sauvage]

They complimented each other beautifully, shame we only got 2 albums with that lineup before personal issues got in the way. As they say, nothing can kill you faster than success.

[@ria1636]

Yes, the collaboration between those two certainly worked musically and aesthetically for a time.

[@stevienicksisafreakinglege4413]

I so hope for a new Shakespears Sister album, these two are amazing.

[@stuartedwards3840]

You are a god. Marcy asked and you provide. Good job Normski. All Of us in North America thank you.

[@_Normski]

My absolute pleasure!

Siobhan is class👍✊👌

[@Robert_Manners]

8 weeks at number was an amazing time ⌚ Saying that this was the time of great number 1s that held the spot for so many weeks.

[@hector-sauvage]

Even crazier in that it was all physical copies sold across 3 formats, no digital downloads back then, everyone had to go out and actually buy it. Early 90s was a good time for catchy and fun number 1's, before Britpop.

Unlike Bryan Adams' paint-by-numbers manipulative Costner movie tie-in, I was happy for every week SS's goth camp classic was at the top spot.

Thanks so much for the Shakespears Sister TOTP interview. As a massive SS fan an collector, (I have six SS collection videos in my KZbin channel) I’m so happy to see this new interview. I was hoping both ladies were in the same room discussing Stay. I hope they record a new album together.

[@cleornroll254]

love your videos Robert, you're a true SS fan.

[@Robert_Manners]

Brilliant 💫

[@Captain_Rhodes]

I remember vividly when the stay video was on TV and me and my mum sat by the TV in silence. It had such a big effect on me, just like Nirvana or Michael Jacksons thriller. It realy was a big deal. I havnt felt like that in a long time

[@hector-sauvage]

It brings me back to seeing it on Irish tv as a child, made a big impression- I thought Marcy was beautiful and Siobhan was scary :)

[@markymnstr]

Great interview, great song!!

[@johnbourne9822]

Amazing footage of two icons and a legendary song. Thank you for sharing this.

[@no_handle_required]

Both of them were total bad assess. 100% good stuff. "Stay" still makes me tear up.

[@joany531]

All their songs are good

[@Robert_Manners]

Nice to see the top of the pops clip at the end as this is from one of the editions that wasn't repeated on the recent BBC Four showings.

[@truetransveganrebel9]

Brilliant. I hope the 90s interview at 1:00 gets released in full one day

[@stringman509]

I love the song brilliant ❤❤xx

[@megapangolin1093]

Lovely to hear that Siobhan enjoyed her role, she camped it up beautifully, amazing facial expressions and body language, and it all worked with the B movie vibe. Marcellas singing is superb. True magic.

[@mungreluk5810]

Wow, it's amazing how good partnerships come about isn't it. And 'STAY' was, and still is a superb combination of a song. 👍

[@sharildewa5311]

Thank you for the upload, Normski 🙏

[@420haxx]

I always remember this video on being ITV's The Chart Show and loving it, and despite not understanding the themes even then I knew this song was kinda epic. Such a memorable and unique music video combined with timeless, powerful vocals. The 90's were a great decade to grow up in.

[@claudiabothma]

Thanks 4 video

[@Bigalinjapan]

30 years later, Siobhan is still the hottest chick ever to me. This unbeliably acting is irresistable...

[@MichaelDeHaven]

Her eyes could write a book. They say so much.

[@Catglasgow]

Legends 🙌

[@noneofhourbusiness]

Amazing ❤😊

[@JimmyMooreDrag]

8 Weeks!!!!!!

[@robwilliams6753]

4:46 shivers. This was the era when they had to sing live or go home.

[@sheluvssmokedupeyes1]

Yes exactly

[@gavinbrando8255]

Dave is a genius when you also know that he was the leader of the Veryphonics too!

[@lllucky13]

these two have not spoken to each other since the split of the band.. i was listening to an inyerview last year on radio 2

[@vikingodin1986]

Good days

[@shaunbat5097]

Marci was brilliant

[@Lester-hi4ez]

1992 was marked with horrible crime in December 😂😂😂😂😂

[@celluloidtherapy5003]

Why does everyone completely ignore the FACT, that Siobhan sounds like a wounded alley-cat when she “sings?”

[@iTeacupPanda]

I don't think she does. I think she had a very grim and grounded presence that added to the contrast and made the drama even deeper.

[@Soul_of_a_Robot]

Some of the most famous artists weren't particularly great singers with impeccable voices. You completely miss the point with bollocks observations like that

[@celluloidtherapy5003]

@@Soul_of_a_Robot “Weren’t particularly great…” understate much? I’m not missing some deep, artsy ‘point’ here, her vocals are trash. I’d much rather focus on actual talent.
