She still gives me chills, what a voice! Thank you Martha.💕

[@bluestate69]

[@JKahil]

Give Martha some credit..... she's still brining it!

[@dougcoleburn1579]

She’s amazing!

[@michaelhull63]

What a voice what a woman wow

[@JAB5625]

Martha and Amie Mann are very under-appreciated IMO... Spectacular for any age.

[@srhmusic13]

Her voice still has it! Sounds great

[@ninatugaga8668]

Beautiful Voice! Good morning from New Zealand

[@kendollgt]

She is better than many 90s and 2000s female singers! 80s goddess

[@clairefreeman6273]

She still looks and sounds absolutely fabulous!

[@3121LASVEGAS]

great voice...brings back a lot of memories

[@Kharmee01]

she is fantastic....wow what a memory

[@louiealfaro1]

What a great band!

[@sTimeCapsule]

Love this song

[@fernandoespinoza1480]

Un tremendo tema!! Que grande Martha Davis!!! Saludos desde Santiago de Chile 🇨🇱

[@WineSippingCowboy]

I like this version better than the album version: less keyboard but more guitar! Keyboards are not bad, but they date the song. The added guitar just keeps the song rocking! :)

[@notbatman1000]

The Rolling Stones have nothing on this girl!! Amazing after all these years!!

[@elauraburnette]

I think they're very different. I'm a Stones gal, but love the Motels. :) Happy Thanksgiving!

[@genaro19se]

She still can make you get the memories of the last summer. Great!!!

[@rogercallicutt4221]

Martha , hasn't lost a damn thing!!

[@albertforlini979]

This song was good. It was one of those songs that kind of grew on you .

[@TheStuport]

Martha & MTV.....The Seeds Of My Youth

[@silversliver1592]

That was a fricken spectacular performance, Martha & her band destroyed the studio version. 10.5/10

[@bonitomex]

Que buena musica👏🎶 me encanta la guitarra keep it up 👏buena suerte

[@chevy2599]

I always like there sound. Only the lonely and this one, Suddenly last summer were probably the most played on the radio back in the day. Great memories.

[@codykinsey7970]

just thinking she's probably got grandkids now. how cool would that be to have a grandmother that rocks

[@MichaelTeniente]

She is tough! To sound as good or better than the studio version. Serious talent.

[@arciefan]

Love it!

[@berg6964]

So very cool!!

[@seizethedayandlive]

love this song; thanks for posting this for us to enjoy and remember :-)

[@njdoughboy]

Friggin great.

[@thereelmccoy25]

Thanx so much for sharing this, great filming job!

[@carbonitegamorrean8368]

thanks

[@damianbowyer6258]

Awesome Stuff fm Martha and The Guys.

[@moreme40]

Still sounds great

[@veganlogic4empathy]

I recognize that voice!! :)

[@jimzeleny7213]

The guy playing the Tele is getting a great sound

[@GeorgeOforiAtta]

Her voice is like fine red wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah for sure.

[@davidrogers2493]

She may not have aged well. But DAMN!!! She STILL sounds good!!!

[@stevestruthers6180]

Wow. Her voice sounds as good as it did on the original recording. There aren't too many female vocalists her age that can do as well. A shame they didn't use keyboards during this live performance, because they add so much to the song.

[@robogiggles]

she hasnt lost her voice one single bit !!!!!

[@donniedowner1686]

Great camera work..thanks

[@theothertroll]

I liked her solo fast version of this song ~

[@hollywoodjay09]

Martha is still pretty and talented

[@angelo062367]

what happened to the motels, this is not the motels that I remember at all. Martha's voice still sounds great. bring back the real motels

[@StilettoCutsQuick.]

Martha is the motels. Without her they had nothing.

[@josephnance4806]

FOCUS!

[@jasondebord]

That's funny... you posted this comment as I was driving to Walnut Creek to see... Martha Davis and The Motels in concert. I'll have a new article up on this show with Bow Wow Wow and Dramarama on my site tomorrow (and a few new videos). Jason P.S. I love Aimee Mann as well!

[@josephkochera6443]

Get going on a new album, and come to PNW to do a concert at the Tacoma DOme!!

[@robertbyington7715]

Think of the female singers that were fronting bands when Martha started not many

[@jasondebord]

Dan, search KZbin for "Best Digital Cameras for Live Music Concert Photos & Video (Sony HX20V, Sony RX100, Fuji X100)" - I put up a video about it with a link to my article on my site. This was shot with a Sony HX20V. I recently got the HX50V which is mostly the same but with a longer reach.

[@bryanseitz8137]

I've never seen anyone play a power chord by tucking their pinky behind the neck. Interesting. Whatever works!

[@Ni5ei]

I miss the keyboards...

[@timafiggy]

she reminds me of Christine hind. they can be be sisters.

[@1251wire]

dad is not taking care of that solo

[@theothertroll]

I liked her solo fast version of this song ~
