The Television Talk Show: Arsenio Hall (w/Belinda Carlisle - part 1 of 2)

Arsenio Hall brought some of the most innovative energy to the talk show format in the history of the medium. His show was hip, young and edgy and just what the format and television needed as a new generation of viewers entered late night in the late 1980's.
Hall's show ran from 1989 to 1994 on the new upstart FOX broadcast network, with a revival of his show from 2013 to 2014. This particular episode is from October 4, 1991 and features one of our favorites, Belinda Carlisle.
This clip is part one of two parts... part two is on its way.

Hello! Thank you very much for your detailed answer and your time. I love LIVE YOUR LIFE song very much. It's simply impossible to find on YT her American TV performances of this song, and what exists is of disappointing quality. I hope you have some more TV appearances of hers, I love the period of her career (1986-1997). Thanks in advance. I will follow your channel. Cheers from Steve!🍺🍺

Good morning Steve - good news... we found the video in question late last night in our VHS archives... still in pretty good shape after over thirty years in storage. Enjoy! We found that one of our guys 'M' had recorded a couple of other Belinda interviews from around that time in Nov. 1991, and so we've included the cool ET interview with her as well. As always, one caveat... we're not sure if our KZbin colleagues will be allowed to keep this copyrighted video running indefinitely... often music clips we've posted have had to come down after a while due to copyright issues. But for now, so far, so good, so we'll keep our fingers crossed.

Also, we hadn't heard this song for a while, or seen Belinda perform for a while, and watching both these clips back-to-back was a real flash-back treat for the team here this morning... particularly 'M' who video taped this off his TV way back when as a young adult in the 1990s. Good times. - staff PS - HAPPY BIRTHDAY (a belated ) BELINDA!

Hello. I'm sure you won't answer me, but I'll ask you anyway...I assume you don't have the performance of LIVE YOUR LIFE BE FREE, which she sang before this interview?

[@TelevisionVanguard]

Hi Steve, sorry for the late reply. We've been swamped here on some other issues this summer and not as 'hands on' as we have been. Hope to resurface and get back in full time again soon - the whole team. In answer to your fine question, yes, we have the full interview and the song Belinda performed - 'Live Your Life, Be Free.' We'll do some digging in our archives and will try to unearth the VHS tape and post the song and performance. One caveat - often, we are not able to post song-related material, so there is a chance the performance won't pass the copyright approval team here at KZbin. But we'll give it a try. Thank you for watching. - staff
