Marilyn Martin - Night Moves
Vložit

- Best known for her duet with Phil Collins, "Seperate Lives", Marilyn Martin also had a minor hit with this song in 1986. It's a shame that she didn't make it bigger (and that this vid hasn't been upped before).
She's a realtor now (according to wikipedia).

Marilyn Martin has one of the prettiest voices of the 80's.Disappointed she didn't have more success than she did.
I LOOOOOOOOOVVVVEEEEEEE this song and can't understand why it never went big. She has a better voice than many singers of today!
What kept this song from making it big?
3:00 - 3:30. It is that awful guitar solo. The rest of the song is great, but that drags it down very far.
@@gz9520 Yes I agree that solo was like nails on a chalkboard!🤢
@@gz9520 Where's Steve Stevens when you need him?
@@gz9520No, it doesn't.
I know she was the backing vocals in don't come around here no more so underated
Why on earth is this never mentioned in some of the best songs of the 80s or even 1986. Its an absolute banger
Marilyn shoulda been a superstar! Looks,voice,style!!! Atlantic records dropped the ball!!!
Killer 80s flashback! Back when MTV was king(and the M stood for MUSIC TV).
Yes, Paul King 😅 Greetings Meike
It’s criminal this song and video didn’t catapult her in to superstardom. Her vocals are astounding!
Yes! On par with Laura Branigan.
No many poeple knows this song. This song ist awesome forever and very rare.🎉
She was one of Stevie Nick's back up singers for the longest time!! This woman is hot and this song is good especially for 80's pop music.
Popeyedrums
Didn't know that, it explaines alot, thank you & Cheers from down under!!!
How is it I that I never heard of this song during the 80s. I just heard it for the first time the other day and was liked it immediately. This would make a perfect song to use for anyone making a vampire show/movie montage like Forever Knight to name a perfect example in featuring the love story parts. A true hidden gem
Apparently DJs overlooked this one and it stalled at #29 thus meaning it only got rotation for a short time. Some areas played it heavier than others and maybe some areas didn't play it at all. The music business side sucks sometimes.
Martin’s soaring voice, ever so slightly rough in its highest register, pulsed with a raw passion that exceeded nearly all her contemporaries. It’s a shame she recorded so little.
@fporetto--YES!! She could've been another Laura Branigan
Heard it first in Houghton, MI in 1986. Still listen to it at age 61. Today's music is not as great as the 80's. The hell with generations y & z. I'll continue listening to this at age 70 and beyond.
DIVA!!!!! That jacket in the last scene is TIMELESS. Sunglasses, too. She had better come back hard. She can do it.
U go !!!! ❤ ✝
The jacket was a Norma Kamala (sp?) she was a diva inspired designer
Si, la ropa de la escena final es de impacto 💯
That whole outfit at the end is a vibe...I'm loving it so much
Martin is 67 years old now; it's likely she's not interested in coming back.
This song exploded onto Canadian radio in early `86! This track went to the top 40 in the us and Canada as well! The driving beat, awesome vocals and solid guitar work drove this song home! Is it only me that thinks they just don`t write songs like these anymore?
mark gauthier Half CZcams uses that last sentence for this or that song. The idea may be right, the phrasing is a bit too cliché CZcams lingo.
Get so tired of that mindset.
The producer of this video did an excellent job, I like the concept of the video, its drama, mysticism and how the scenes were directed according to the song. Marilyn Martin, looks spectacular, her body language, expressive and emotional gestures in each scene of the video, it's amazing! It is pure perfection, its unique voice quality to handle different tones of voices is amazing. I think she was not given enough exposure in the industry as an artist, because she would have been more successful than she had. It is unfortunate when artists with unique quality and talent are not given the recognition that they deserve in an increasingly incomprehensible industry in valuing the "quantity" more than the quality! Marilyn Martin, an artist who has left her mark on her musical legacy and has no comparison with any female artist of her time, she is unique!
One of the best songs I've ever heard
Thumbs up if you think this song should've been a big, big hit.
What happened?
Tough competition in the music business, 1986 or otherwise. Also, Atlantic Records only released the CD version in 1986 in Japan for some unknown reason (it has since been released on cd in 2005 from Wounded Bird in North America). Had it been sold in North America on CD at the time (cassette and LP were available though), might have caught on better, as it would have reached more CD review magazines for example, might have been played more in high end music stores which were promoting the fairly new CD players, might have been played on more radio stations using the CD formate, it might have spread the word more
Sucks
Back then albums had a month or so delay before they made it to CD here in the U.S.Atlantic Warner was known for that it took a month to see 1987 Frehley's Comet to be released on CD it all depends on how that album sold .
What happened? a debut video where she plays a serial killer who lures men in a dungeon and kills them, that's what happened. Not the brightest idea.
@@backslash68 Miami Vice was big back then & this was a very Miami Vice kind of song & I think it was used in the series. Her problem was, she wanted to be a more "pure" Madonna type look but only let her "dark side" come out in her singing. If she'd had dark hair & not been so skinny, she'd had a much better career. IMHO. But considering 1986, this video is 9 outta 10.
This is, hands down, my favourite music video from the 80s.
What a great video, this is back when rock/pop music was great.
The eerie bass piano at the beginning and goes on for an extended period at the end is awesome.
I get perfect female vampire vibes from this beautiful song. I will add it to my Halloween playlist on Spotify!
What a phenomenal 80s hidden gem!
Loovvve this Song so haunting & beautiful, she should have hit the big time!!
All I can say is AMAZING!!!!
I miss the days when music made you feel good
Wow that was macabre! Love how they tried to tie a story into every music video back then. Creative and fun to watch, and Marilyn Martin seemed pretty cool. Separate Lives on Amazon Music brought me here.
Marylin was a backup singer for Stevie Nicks for many years, and Maryling later released this hit song and solo albuim in 1986. But sadly, her music career flew as far as the Spruce Goose. She now sells business realty in Nashville, TN. However, she still looks as hot today as she did in 1986!
one of the most spooky and well done videos ever. Seldome can a 5 min clip tell a whole story and do it well, It was like a mini horror flick and the scene where they find the bodies one of the most chilling in a music vid ever. Fantastic song too, she should have took things more down this path in her career.
I couldn't agree with you more. The video plays out so brilliantly - chilling and erotic, dangerous and exotic all at once. And the story moves along with every scene. Perfection! Then of course you have the song and the vocal performance - MORE PERFECTION!
@@mariotarradell9553 IKR, I always fantasized, and still do, from a director/producer standpoint, of this video as a treatment for a nice hour and forty-five minute modern gothic vampire horror movie. I think it would be an awesome full length film. Including her getting away in the end...lol
I love the looks on their faces as they discover all the hanging bodies. And then outside the building, innocently among the gawking crowd, she slips on her sunglasses, brings up her coat hood, and calmly walks away. It's one of the few times you actually root for the vampiress. It is SO well done.
I love MM but this video was fairly derivative of the Hunger and Coma films that both preceded it.
@@funfunsterWhatever you say, Leonard Maltin
What a voice! It's a damn shame 😠 she's not on the airwaves !
Dark, goth, mysterious..
What a moody song , with great guitar work !!❤❤
She had an amazing voice! She was soooo beautiful!
Whatever happened to this perfect voiced woman? Love this song!!!
She's touring with Stevie Nicks right now as a backround singer, i just saw her.
Now she's a realtor in California.
Saw her with Fleetwood Mac..as backup singer couple weeks back...
She is a backup singer for Stevie Nicks and can be seen in Stevie's new 24 Karat Gold tour that is streaming soon! Martin is also a licensed Realtor in Nashville, TN.
You know, they wanted to make her Bonnie Taylor 2.0. but this is her first single and it goes dark and kinda hard rock at moments (awesome btw). So... She fulfilled her contractual obligations and went to sing rock n roll with Stevie Nicks, or so I heard.
These were my High School years and didn't get better. Music of the 80s AWESOME!!!
This song should've been a big hit.
What a song. Tensed beat and great atmosphere. Simply unforgettable!
Thanks Video Beagle, this is a great song and video!! One of the only good things my ex-wife gave me was the knowledge that this song existed.
Ric Flair
One of the best vids of the 80's or even ever. Spooky little 5 min movie, She was a long time back ground singer for Stevie Nicks (Can be seen in many (Most all from 80's ) of Stevie's live vids, and videos.) She did her version (my fav actually) of "Sorcerer" for the Streets Of Fire soundtrack with Stevie on Backing vocals ( A neat little switch). This has always been one of my favorite songs and still ranks with the chill factor.
+redrusty66 Marilyn toured with Stevie on her 'Wild Heart' tour in 1983 and recorded her version of 'Sorcerer' in 1984, she also sang backup on Stevie's 1985 album 'Rock A Little'. Those are her Stevie connections.
Saturday Night Live, Solid Gold, The US Festival and a slew of other televised and high profile appearances during those years leaving a very visible mark . Saw no reason to attempt to diminish her stint in "Stevie Lore" as aside from THAT, this song and one duo with Phil Collins she really has nothing else Music Career wise to send people looking for. She deserved more. considering her talent, but, that was her rightful decision.
She is currently the background singer along with Sharon Celani for Stevie’s 24K Gold concert film which is incredible and comes to amazon prime and PBS in December- I got to see it at one of the few theaters in California that was open before Halloween. She is one of Stevie’s closest friends and still looks snd sounds amazing
I have to say this is my all-time favorite music video
She is Crazy Amazing! Why? She is so 80's and set into that Era that she is Iconic!! I have heard so many different singers and she is very much an Iconic performer...
I missed this gem of a song in my senior year of high school.
Today I was at a Thanksgiving type dinner at a diner with my mom and stepdad when this song just popped in my head and I haven't heard it since it was released. No one at the table knew the song, including my other half so I had to find the video for him to see. Still loved it all these years later just don't know why it popped into my head
now.
Heard in my country (Australia) and loved and wanted it on CD and couldn’t get it. Was so bummed out.
Marilyn proved she could have a hit without havin' to lean on Phil Collins. Hit #28 in Billboard.
But she was introduced to us by her duet with Phil. She was riding the wave of that single’s success. It’s more than likely that this song would not have been the minor hit it was without her teaming up with Phil.
classic example of a great artist that never caught the break of having a hit song layed in their path, your gonna tell me she wouldnt have made 'hit me with your best shot' a hit? she more than has the talent and looks to have been a great 80s pop star! they go from one dud to the next until they give up.
This is my favorite 80s video/ song that NO one remembers.
I believe It just cracked the top thirty.
It was about a year after her success on the #1 duet with Phil Collins “Separate Lives “.
The video was unusually dark for even MTV.
I’m certainly one of the few Bob Seger fans who have his “Night Moves”
As my second favorite track with that title. 😉✌️
OMG I LOVED this song and the entire album actually. What a video!! I'm so glad she got away with it in the end!!! Marilyn Martin deserved to be huge - I loved her second album as well.
The most delicious moment in this video is when she is among the crowd gawking at the stunned cops coming out of the building with the hanging bodies. She quietly slips on her sunglasses, easily steps away from the mass of people, pulls up her hood, and quietly walks away. Nobody has a clue.
An underrated and underappreciated song that should have been a monster hit. Still here in 2022, on my playlist since '86.
I have listened to this album for years. she is a great talent. She went to the same high school as me but she was about 3 years older. The album this song is on is way more progressive than most stuff that was out back then. That is probably why she wasn't as sucessful. Too bad. She is awesome. I suggest if you can get hold of a copy of this album you won't be disappointed. Too bad it is out of print though.
The piano at the end is wicked too.
It reminds me of the days of Top Gun and Miami Vice. Best times ever!
I've been searching this song for 30 years..
Love this music!! Thanks for sharing!! Miss the good ole days!
Those old enough to remember the days when you joined a music club. Get 13 free albums and have to buy so many more. A card was sent every month and if you forgot to mail it back, an album was automatically sent. Marilyn Martin was the album I received since I didn’t return the paper. Turned out to be an album that I loved, most every song and it really is rare to have that happen.
This woman is as good a singer as many others who made it big in 80's. There are just so many outlying elements to success in the music business.
So much of it seems to be timing.
Sleeping with the right record producer would a major one I'd imagine.
Just remember playing this one loud on the car stereo back in the 80's. Just love this song.
This video scared the crap out of me as a kid.
I like the sense of foreboding in the song.
Marilyn hit #28 in Billboard, 3-22-85. She was right. She preferred the rockier stuff, as opposed to 'Separate lives.' God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Have a great week!
I just heard this the other day and I remembered how great this song is!!
Oh goodness I remember this! Used to love it and her voice is amazing.
This song, and her debut album, have been a guilty pleasure of mine since 1986, even though my usual tastes are much more metallic.
Just heard this song again for the first time in years. Kind of funny how it reminds me of Glenn Frey's You belong to the city mixed with a late 80s Pontiac car commercial.WE BUILD EXCITEMENT, PONTIAC. I miss the 80s.
Same here....was listening to the 80's channel top 40 hits of this week back in '86 and this song popped up. Been well over 30 years since I've heard it!!
I thought I would be. The only one. To remember these great random songs
Serial Killer Diva! An infectious song that did not get enough airplay to be a hit, Video is great. The song is also very good on its own.
This is a pretty high budget video, her record company must have thought she was going to be a big star to have this much effort put into it. Sucks it didn't work out.
It was still on the Big 80s on 8 top 40 countdown for this week in 1986 though... so it at least made top 40! ... which is the 2020 equivalent of getting a #1.... twice.
lol.. I still like this song.
MARILYN MARTIN.. HAS SUCH AN AMAZINGLY & BEAUTIFUL TALENTED VOICE
Twilight, before Twilight was even written. Notice the male bodies hanging with holes in the neck. Kind of a bow to "The Hunger". But isn't the building at the end of the video, the same building they used in Fright Night (where Peter Vincent lived)
first time i've seen the vid to this song. Really like....and her outfitt was cool as hell at the end.
I was searching for some unspecified background music I heard on “Heartbreak ridge” and “Top gun” and it led me here. Beautiful song, brings back memories.
Killer song....pun intended. This should have been a much bigger hit
Wow, great voice, super gorgeous. And her video makes her either a serial killer or some kinda vampire. Thanks for posting this; this video is one of those "saw it once or twice on mtv" videos that you always kinda remember.
lexxstrum clearly she was supposed to be a seductive vampire. The men all had bite marks on their necks.
The bite marks and fact it seems be night in most the videos makes me think she's a vampire. Been creepy had they gave her some creepy vampire contact lenses that we don't see until the very last second or so in the video.
She was both a vampire and a serial killer. A serial-killing vampire.
@@betteurbain7911 Aren't most vampires serial killers? :)
Total classic kick ass song.
I loved this song when it came out. And I remember this being one effed up video. I still see the basement scene in my head 30 odd years later..........
One of my favorite 80’s songs. 👌
I have been an unknown songwriter for 3 decades & I was showing my Dad this song for its great sound properties & amazing key changes.
My Dad's next statement was a game-changer:
"This song has a timeless quality. So do your songs, son. Don't get frustrated about not being recognized for it.
You were also born out-of-your-time; so what you do has so many properties of songs like this; which you like so much. You write like this, but you also write like THIS."
*He proceeds to pull up a Randy Travis song called 🎶Better Class of Losers🎶*
This song is such a masterpiece.
But I am so glad that Phil Collins (whom I have also met one time in Philadelphia PA) had the popular duet with Marilyn Martin on
🎶Seperate Lives🎶
Awesome oft overlooked 80s gem! Thanks for posting!
epic looks and killer voice.....
Reminds me of early Pat Benatar, was an awesome song back then, still got the Album!!!
The first time that I heard this song, was Joe's cover of it. I loved it. I didn't find out that it was a cover until this week, when I stumbled upon someone's list of 80s songs that he/she thought should have been bigger hits. This song ranked high on the list. When I watched the video, I loved her voice, and ended up buying some of the songs from her two albums, including this one, of course. She co-wrote the song with John Parr.
Marilyn Martin. What a Voice! Great Video!
I 💖 this song and video 🌟💙⭐
After all these years I still come back to find this song - terrific. should have been a massive hit...xxx
Brillant! Loud! Timeless!❤❤❤
She's touring with Fleetwood Mac! Saw her at Madison Square Garden backing Stevie Nicks and the rest....still has the moves and voice...a major crush from the 80s....
Loved this song. Great video. I agree, it is too bad she did not have a longer career. Great Voice.
What a Divaliscious video! A scorned vixen who slaughters preppie guys. And stores the bodies like MEAT in a warehouse. Who would have known? Its a great CAMP video bound to have its day in Retroland. Thanks Alan
FLAWLESS! Flawless in every way. Still wows me every time I watch it so many years later. By the way, Marilyn Martin's solo debut album, which contains this song, is one of my favorite albums of all time.
I'd kill for that jacket at the end.
Forgive my 1982 birth, but I didn’t hear this until Strangers 2. I have been in love with it ever since.
Such a pinnacle 80s song that still feels fresh today...the song and video have a Laura Branigan's Self Control vibe. Should have been a #1.
What's even more ridiculous is that in 1986 her self titled CD only had a Japan release, with 2 bonus tracks not on the North American LP or cassette. In 2005, finally, Wounded Bird put this CD out in North America (without the 2 bonus tracks), is out of print and expensive to find
Also of note, Joe Lynn Turner sang this song in 2006 for the Sunstorm project
Seriously theeee most stunning woman
@girraud She is now a realtor in Nashville, TN. She should really go back to singing; an extraordinary talent.
This was an incredibly unusual and brave video in its time.
great guitar in this select.
The guitar was played by Michael Byron-Hehir who was Corey Harts guitar player.
I love Marilyn Martin came here after seeing her with Stevie Nicks in the 24K gold concert film. I remember this amazing video that I believe was also directed by Marty Callner just like Stevie’s iconic videos of the 80s. It tells a mini movie very much influenced by Miami Vice
Great song, wonderful voice, and one damned fine looking woman! Those eyes!
Freaking awesome song & video is wicked bad!!
I. Always loved this song
