The B-52's - Private Idaho (Live)

[@stipsa52]

fantastic vocals, best I've ever heard

[@deadreckoning6288]

The girls vocal harmonizing is really lovely & Fred is the perfect counterpoint.

[@MauricioCasteglione]

The best "Private Idaho" version I ever heard/seen. Great, strong performance...!

[@JellyBean2144]

The world's greatest party band!!! They still can kick butt!!

[@RetroClassic66]

You're livin' in your own private Idaho, Livin' in your own private Idaho, Underground like a wild potato. Don't go on the patio! How can anyone not relate to such deep, brilliantly profound lyrics as these?

[@polloramone5625]

I Love You Cindy! ♡

[@mjstrat67]

Their voices are still very good

[@andrecarvalho8195]

O tempo passa para todos. Mas a música é eterna.

[@bartonrice5013]

I saw the B-52's on the Legion Field stage in Athens back in 1990 just as Cosmic Thing was coming out. Love Tractor opened up for them. It was great! Students were filling all the windows in Creswell Hall looking down into the bowl. Kate was rocking her flapper dress like always!

[@jdelanow]

Saw them last night in Baltimore and Im telling you - they are still amazing after over 30 yrs!!!

[@hustla1609]

They're having so much fun! I love this!

[@SS421982]

I love them all so much...I don't have a favorite, but Cindy's look here is great! Fred looks really good too.

[@ILoveB52s]

The B-52's are the BEST band EVER....No band can and will be better than the B-52's!!!!

[@jeslyfirefox]

this is the best new wave videos in the 80's and still kicking...

[@peter2336]

Fantastic version of a classic!Looking forward to seeing them @ Bluesfest 2009 in Ottawa.

[@yappaplay]

I just heard the original song before i jumped straight to here, and THEY STILL GOT IT!! Even after 20 years, it still sound close to the original. I am very impressed. Oh and R.I.P Ricky.

[@TheDrummerDude17]

I remember watching this, and it was awesome! Makes me feel old that it's already been 11 years, though...

[@matteowatteo1296]

Love these guys. Completely original, weird and fantastic.

[@Airamahrog]

Still sounding pretty freakin' good!!!

[@wysiwyg2489]

Note: Is from 2000.

[@Airamahrog]

Right! But in 2000, weren't they like in their 80's? ;)

[@101Volts]

No, all original B-52s members were born in the 50s except Kate who was born in 1948.

[@Emandir]

I love Cindy!

[@MoldyWarts]

Man, they are so awesome. I love how into it they get when they're performing. I would LOVE to go to one of their concerts!!

[@deadreckoning6288]

Me too. Likely to late now in 2022. I think they're done & Cindy's voice is gone.

[@ms58chevy]

still my favorite!!! b52s ROCK BABY!!!

[@allydom11]

i have loved this band since i saw them in 1988 kate was awesome then and age has not withered the talent and fred is 1 of the best frontmen i have ever seen

[@TheStones1965]

Cool, fantastic band.

[@GuilhermeBezerr]

A great performance!!!! I love this song!

[@bcochnov10]

I saw them in concert last night at Wolf Trap in Virginia...THEY WERE AMAZING!

[@lautarosoad]

Perfect performance.

[@sutk66]

Wow!! This is great.

[@aremmojarra]

@roboroschi private idaho is a expresion from the 70s and mean your private room or your private world in your own room....Im from the 70.........

[@Snoil]

Fan since '80 seen em live few times...GOOD TIMES! Kate and Cindy on the backing vocals are unequalled!

[@arklat]

That.....was AWESOME!

[@feno16]

Basically they are no differences with 1980's video, it is a very "powerful" song

[@matthewzin]

I alwasy thought their guitarist was really underrated.

[@theoldar]

Matt Zink He was originally the drummer. He replaced Ricky when he passed away in 1985. But yes, both of them are very good!

[@101Volts]

Ricky's techniques _are_ pretty unorthodox in Rock and Roll to the best of my knowledge. Sometimes he played sounding like it's two guitars but it's really just him, (yeah I realize that was common with country music players like Merle Travis but this isn't quite the same) other times there are two guitars in early B52s tracks but he still played parts that were incredible though simple.

[@davidjameschamberlain]

he was very innovative as far as how he used alternate tunings went. He would even remove strings and use unison strings (strings tuned to the same note)

[@OmarPalaciosEspinoza]

Que canción mas chvr.... una de las mejores bandas New Wave..... excelente para moverse y saltar en las discos :)

[@wisegal88]

Wow that's badass how they still got it after so long! Still badass live they still get down! Awesome!

[@KidIndigo1]

Pretty frikkin okey dokey. Thanks, 52s, truly.

[@luiscevascodelasota347]

Excellent sound on stage!!!

[@mfactor88]

[@malvadeza2591]

The faces of Fred and Keith didn't change so much from 20 yrs ago

[@juarezaguiartrindadetrinda4092]

[@luiscevascodelasota347]

It is a very great performance after so many years. It´s good to see they all are on the line yet! And in very good state!

[@Syntarro]

I cant say enough good things about this band. from 82 when i was in 8th grade all the way up to having the DJ playing them at my wedding reception LOVE this BAND! B-52's, Devo, Gary Newman, The Cars, and the Go Go's..aww memories.

[@jedo6101967]

Just love the power they show - go on B-52's !

[@billnj2006]

One of my favorites!

[@caprichoarabea]

[@PinkLadyDeluxe]

i love the b-52s the voices are incredible and the music is fun!!!

[@cariocamotodenman658]

My best party band forever...

[@socalsal627]

I saw them in 1987 at University of Minnesota and they were awesome! People were dancing so hard that the balcony was swaying up and down and the management told them they couldn't do Rock Lobster! It was scary but we were all joking about the fact that they literally almost brought the house down:)

[@Etatdesiege1979]

No! Get out! That's too much awesomeness and beauty for one stage!

[@frankey24]

They sound great... i saw them live this summer.

[@elizabethgiselmarinasbenav9726]

Lo maximoooo los adoro desde Perú

[@gallowsradio]

Flawlessly executed...

[@Thompsonfan92]

My favorite song. I love The B52s !

[@LunaSeaSane]

Very good performance with pretty good audio (considering it's the internet).

[@edwardozzy]

Perfect Music

[@mdrew67]

I think it's Sara Lee (formerly of Gang of 4). She played on "Cosmic Thing" and toured with the band. She's also in the "Love Shack" vid!

[@jsn1981]

frackin' awesome. they still got it.

[@malvadeza2591]

Fred and Keith faces never change

[@odgykins]

Cindy is one neat lady!

[@fenthedog]

It is Tina! Shes played on a few of theirs

[@michaelnobibux2886]

[@rodrigoandrescc]

[@atheneo2007]

[@mickyday2008]

Fantastic

[@atsstockburn]

@RockSalami No disrespect, but have you ever had a B52s party? Let alone seen the B52s in concert in real life? This is a real gem.

[@rickyparrilla2426]

They sound so fucking Good. Love them.

[@Frankenstein279]

They're really great in concert!

[@SS421982]

No doubt....not to be mean either, but I'm surprised Kate was that large. I've been a fan since the beginning, but I guess I didn't see them around this time period.

[@njaneardude]

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!!

[@bola1234full]

é amigo e que nostalgia.

[@theuTV]

[@aremmojarra]

[@axelbeast]

[@gutierre75]

Me encanta b 52. they're wonderfull

[@carl_valentin]

One of the pearls in the new wave shit.

[@ertonbento1]

essa banda é ótima!!!!

[@peruvianosabroso]

carajo eso es musica para bailar

[@MrCrachat]

@Photon123 Film: 1991, Song/Album: 1980.

[@KENCERVERO]

great!!

[@The_Big_Dawg]

I don't want to sound patronising but it took guts for them to perform this song in 2000 on Leno. I'm sure the majority of the studio audience and people at home must have been thinking "wtf is this shit?". But class is class, and this was a very good performance. Shame about Kate looking like a Chucky Doll though, but at least the others looked great!

[@aremmojarra]

@roboroschi raining a lot and with some hot days and a very rainy nigths....thanx
