Michael is always charming and cute!

@@darcitarascio4343 Of course you're right, but this is where it really stands out. For Example, stop at 7:27...has the world ever seen a cuter smile? ☺☺

[@JosephDungee]

Really like this interview.. That's the POWER of the internet because being an American I didn't have access to this interview at that time. Thanks for sharing this!! :-)

[@Cat-ru4hy]

Interviewer is John Roberts. Later at CBS news, CNN and then Fox. He was originally a DJ in Toronto then jumped to MuchMusic (Canadian MTV type TV station) then he went into news & public affairs on CTV Canada AM before leaving for the big time in New York.

[@lynnb.5937]

Thanks SO much! I recognized the voice. Had no idea

[@anthony111isevilok]

Its funny how Michael looks more comfortable and has alot to say in this interview, makes Debbi look the quiet one lol 2:14 is so funny haha let Michael speak Vicki!

[@joojojooo3740]

Susanna is infinitely charming

[@nathanfrahm]

We like it rough. - - Susanna Hoffs That's truly funny. Thanks for that.

[@theprinceoftides6836]

ikr. And I thought I was just imagining it, she did say it. She likes it rough 😜.

[@aanddone4747]

Man, his hair. Reminds me so much of the 80s & 90s

[@Canadiantubemaster]

I think J.D. would like to forget that phase of his life!

[@mrscottspodcast]

The Bangles was a perfect music group.

Miki is so pretty

[@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy]

Especially when her hair was relatively tamed, as it was here (but wasn't often for the rest of the '80s).

[@C.Church]

I saw them at the Greek Theater in 89 at 17. I was in love with this band. And honestly thought they went vocally out of tune or amplification seemed tinny (right word?) a few times lol. But I LOVED EVERY MINUTE!! And waiting for my dad at a nearby gas station, my BFF and I saw someone drive off with a gas nozzle still in the tank. Yanked it off. 😝😂 Ah memories. Memorable crazy mistakes everywhere. Hehe.

[@kz1000ps]

I love when bands do interview while out touring (especially early morning like here) because you catch them a bit delirious and likely to say silly things, or acknowledge real truths like Susanna saying at 3:30 "we don't have any perspective at all, whatsoever".... it goes to show how much a grind tour life is. Oh and Susanna will you marry me?

[@SacredFire777]

What did Michael mean at 2:28 by learning their tricks from The Thompson Twins that made Vicki react like that?

[@Taz90]

It was a joke about the Thompson Twins not singing "live" during their (Thompson Twins) concerts. The Thompson Twins were Milli Vanilli, before Milli Vanilli were Milli Vanilli.

[@waynej2608]

@@Taz90 wow. I saw the Thompson Twins in concert in the 80s, and they were most definitely playing and singing live.

They like the GoGo's accomplished what no other female groups had done before- go to number one with original music they created & performed as musicians. TWICE! Rock n roll hall of fame are u listening??

[@backhaul1]

it's cool how these ladies play with the interviewer ... who, btw, is john Roberts who later was a weekend anchor for CBS news, then on to CNN.

[@RickyProphet]

I thought that was him! He covers Trump White House on Fox News Channel now...Thanks for letting me know...I was about to ask this group that...or search internet...

[@lonepilgrim007]

She said they were never together I always wondered about the drug thing..they seem to be the only band in history that never did them..I`mm sure they were around it but you never hear anything about them drinking alot or using coke unlike the go gos who were party animals and just about everyone else in music..I always got the impression they were kinda unique about that. I always loved them especially Michael but they were commercial which may be why she left

[@Oneworld-xd5hg]

13 years old 🥰

[@edgarcosta6835]

Micki was soooo cute!

[@aelius93]

[@lisahardy9707]

Interviewer JD Roberts would go on to work for CBS News & CNN years later

[@ianhudson3634]

Why the sunglasses?

[@FireMinstrel]

Michael is the only one who doesn't say anything when the host asks about being around in 20 years. I am aware that I'm reading too much into that. >_

[@jozefvasko1406]

FireMinstrel She hadnt answers thats All stop blaming her

[@patriciavaskova4219]

well actually because Michael is older than all bangle members If you would know something about Micki you will know

[@TWHISPERER]

Vicki is so cool. Love her

[@mercemercedesperez9136]

Vicky is so rude that she doesn't let Michael speak. It would be great for Vicky to shut up and not interrupt all the time

[@TWHISPERER]

@@mercemercedesperez9136 I did notice that Suzanne and her did do that a lot, but I think that they were the leaders of that band, but still, they should not be interrupting so much.

[@garryshpak103]

Niki is the bangles

[@sirandrelefaedelinoge]

There is no "Niki" in the band...

[@alialilou3862]

Vicky ?

[@kramor3k]

"We learned all our tricks frrom............" What did Michael say here?

"...The Thompson Twins," Michael says jokingly.

if i ever become famous..im not doing interviews

[@mistersaul]

Susanna seems to be the only one who can answer a question...

[@gerrystroud3789]

I can truthfuly say that i love the bangles I'm a bass player I wish was playing with them I love there music I play it all The [e-mail]

[@EerieProps]

Gerry Lee Stroud I play the drums. I so love playing The Bangles. Hello fellow musician :)

[@Taz90]

mistersaul, You're obviously are not paying any attention to anything they're saying. They're all answering the question asked of them by the dumb-assed, d-bag interviewer.

[@blader45bc]

Training for future White House correspondents. And the girls are goddesses here.

[@nowthenzen]

What, they were kids in their early to mid 20s there?

[@michaelwest9694]

Hey, I know this interview is from a long time ago, but here's a pro tip for other camera operators who may be as untalented as whoever filmed this: try keeping the camera on the person answering the question and NOT on the people NOT answering the question. Also, once the interviewer asks the question, don't leave the camera on him, as he listens to the answer. Nobody cares.

[@juliamaddox4408]

They would never ask most of these questions to a guy band.

[@josephrivett6158]

+Julia Maddox WTF?? Play that victim card.....

[@TL2354]

+Joseph Rivett Feminism- want to be treated equal but get preferential treatment instead

[@marktulo]

Wouldn't have gotten the same attention if it was a guy band.

[@EerieProps]

knovinski I am in a guy band, and I know other guy bands. Believe me, people ( both genders ) get offended. lol

[@Pimp-Master]

This guy is like a robot interviewer...just repeats whatever they say.

Suzanna est ma copine

[@queenstudioinfo1267]

I less than three Susanna.

[@nseaturtle]

...And drugs? Hardly. I remember running into Sue around 2003, and of a mutual acquaintance, she said, "Wasn't he [romantically liked with] Courtney Love?"... and immediately assuming he had AIDS LOL... No, these were not druggy chicks by a long shot. Her well-known tryst w Prince is probably the most extreme thin she ever did in her life.Oh... and Susanna was the WILD one in the band!!!

[@rogerdebougainville889]

was there actually a tryst ? I don't think so .....

[@pacificanorthwest1015]

Nice that they're letting blokes in drag into the band, like that one second from the left... :)

[@libusavaskova787]

first of all learn the names 😌🙂

[@nseaturtle]

R u f'ing kidding me? Those girls werethe most straight-laced little prisses this side of a convent. Ok, so back in the day, I saw Ms. Hoffs occasionally get a bit tipsy ... and yeah, she did go to UC Berkeley, so she may have dabbled w psychedelics in college. But by the time of this show, they were far too busy, exhausted & most importantly, conscious of maintaining their near-skeletal figures to indulge in a sandwich, much less alcohol (especially Susanna, who ate about 250 calories a day).

[@DianeDixey]

You made all of that up from what... this interview?

[@7andsevenisthis]

can we say....highhhhhh? Awesome, they were probably so burned out and like wt? with this dorky dude...he later became a regular major news guy...hmmm. lol....but a champagne is involded here or weed. lol.
