Isn’t everybody in that band dead except Chrissie ?
For some weird reason, I can see Lady Gaga putting on a straight black wig and covering this song!!!
I never appreciated that song from the moment it was released. But that video is pretty cool and I really dig the song now. Never knew she had some sultry soul going on there.
Thx for the cool vid.
If u want to see some amazing recent footage of Christie Hynde and the Pretenders. Check out her performance at the Taylor Hawkins tribute. They blew me away. She’s still got it !
I’ve never seen this. Thank you for posting. So great.
Seeing this footage makes me think that Mick Jagger could do a pretty fun cover of this.
They sound great. I was oddly fixated on the cigarette the entire time and didn’t understand the double-switch with around 34 seconds left.
I think the bass player was in charge of the mix.
I’ve seen the Pretenders many times over the years. Great band, and for my money Chrissie is one of the best women singers in the history of rock ‘n roll.
Chrissie is from Akron, Ohio. So are Devo and The Black Keys. Not to mention LeBron James and his nemesis Steph Curry, who were born in the same hospital.
My favorite band of all time! She’s so bad-ass!
James Honey Man Scott on guitar – so underrated the guy was a legend of playing and tone.. pretenders take away – don’t fuck with drugs kids
If you listen to the whole album, this song comes right after Private Life, which has a much slower tempo. So when this song comes on, it actually sounds like the nervous, desperate plea for attention that is clear in the lyrics, instead of the cool that isolated fame made it sound like. Hidden satire of the entire music industry, genius level fuckery.
I love this song!
