#shakespearssister #stay #firsttimereaction #90s - Zábava
I still can't believe 30 years later that Death in this video was one of the three members of Bananarama
That eye roll from the one portraying personified Death near the end. Pure "Fine. He's yours for now. He'll be mine in the end anyway. Everyone is." right there. Beautiful.
Actually the acting was quite good. Both of them did a great job.
it was amazing!
Wow, so well said. Perfectly said 🤗
Fun fact, Siobhan was back in her room with the crew when Marcella was filming her part. she ended up drunk by the time she filmed her part which you see on the video here. Thank god for that alcohol because her performance was out of this world.
Exactly, well spotted! So many people don't notice that, she's almost amused, so good!!
Dave Stewart was married to Sobian (Shevon)Fahey at one point. Shes lady death in the video. She was also part of a pop girl trio called bananarama back in the 80's 💜
This song is a masterpiece. It's been already a long time on my play list. One of the best songs of the 90's,without any doubt!!!
Agreed. It's a perfect reflection of the creativity of the 90s. It's hard to imagine a track like this coming out today.
One of the best songs period! It's a masterpiece
I concur
Agreed... it was very unique
I remember this powerful song in charts, 8 consecutive weeks at number 1
“Still a lot of song left, maybe some surprises” man had no clue what kind of surprise he was in for 😂😂😂 I remember the first time I heard this back in the 90s and being like WHAT JUST HAPPENED
In 90s really know what to do!!!
FUN FACT: This song still holds the UK record for "Longest no.1 by a girl group" (8 weeks) ... even The Spice Girls couldn't do that years later.
Marcella's voice is heaven. Their album Hormonally Yours, which this song is from, is truly amazing.
Totally agree sacred heart also amazing album the comeback EP also strong the albums without Marcella are good but together they're fabulous.
Of course the Album's title refers to the fact that they were both pregnant when it was recorded.
Agree. I was listening to Hormonally Yours yesterday. It's so ahead of its time in many ways and is full of artistry. The highest standard of pop music. I'm not surprised it's so well remembered. It's one of my all time favourite albums..
@@Eurafrican Pleased you enjoyed it :)
Hello (Turn Your Radio On) is just as amazing as Stay IMHO.
@@esclad agree wholeheartedy. Hello is my joint favourite with Stay. Shame it wasn't more successful. Hello has gotten me through some rough times.
I saw Shakespear's Sister playing live in Liverpool in November 2019.
They closed their phenomenal show with Hello, the perfect choice.
I like how Siobhan was being all extra in her scenes but turns out she was drunk she they did her scenes and that make it even better
I just love lady Death coming in for the kill and when she looses she just rolls her eyes like “meh, I’ll get ya next time”. ;)
The drop gets ‘em every time
Yes! A masterpiece. I've been listening to it continuously since 1992. Thanks for resurrecting it from oblivion.
I think the funny thing is Siobhàn's performance as an almost angel of death is heavily influenced by how much she drank, waiting for her scenes to be filmed
Its so blatent, and yet makes it so much better.
A bottle of vodka , probably , Lol.
Siobhan‘s been on the Stoli !! 😎
Love the facial expressions
Apparently the ladies do or did like their vodka.
Yes, a bottle of vodka was in the changing room!
As a proudly 50 years old metal head, I need and I want a metal cover of this song!!!
Cradle Of Filth cover this song
FYI: The name 'Shakespeare's Sister' comes from the famous essay by Virginia Woolf where the topic of gender bias is investigated. The literal phrase comes when the author says that if William Shakespeare had a sister with the same talent as he had, then that talent would never be known to the world. As a woman she would not be even allowed to demonstrate her talent, and even if she did she talent would not be recognized as such.
So funny to see ppl discovering something that was always there for us 80’s kids.
My Mrs played this to me while I was in intensive care after a brain hemorrhage - she said I was reacting to the music in my coma - the power of music is amazing.
This gave me goosebumps.
❤
Siobhan is the woman with the long hair, that comes in near the end of the song. She is playing the role of "Death." She is actually a member of the pop group Bananarama, from the 80s/90s. She is married to Dave Stewart from The Eurythmics.
Yes, she's SIOBHAN FAHEY frm Bananarama
*was married to Dave Stewart (divorced in 1996)
And the guy on the bed was rumoured to be either the ex or current boyfriend of one of the other Bananarama girls at the time
@@awwdabaaby He is Dave Evans, former boyfriend of Bananarama member Keren Woodward.
👏👏👏👏👍👍👍💖💖💖🍷Loved these two back in the day & the fact that she's married to Dave..bonus!
4:32
“I think I popped my cherry guys!”
😂😂😂
Great reaction!
Siobhan was playing the angel of death and they were fighting over his soul…
Love Siobhan‘s facial expressions!
Siobhan (sounds like Shivahn) is almost unrecognizable under her goth makeup as the Angel of Death, but she was already part of a girls group in the 1980’s: the trio Bananarama.
She was a member of "Bananarama".
She was drunk when she did that I believe.
@@susanannsmith5566 yes she was
@@Nachtdenker I tried once to locate her in Bananarama videos and I could not - she was way changed then!
Love how young folks appreciating this special song from my youth!
Hello Derreck from 2 years ago. I'm glad you love it like I do. I bought the 7"white vinyl. And this from a 61 year old man have fun discovering all the music I missed. Cheers!
Shakespeare's Sister were a MASSIVE kick in the nuts to the music industry! Even back then, there was no-one else like them - and I don't think there is still, even today. Other bangers from them include 'I Don't Care,' 'You're History' and 'Hello (Turn Your Radio On).' Dave Stewart was actually Siobhan Fahey's husband as well (the one who played the Angel of Death.)
Still gives me goosebumps. I love the way it’s all put together. Always on my playlists. Marcella’s high notes are everything in this and Siobhan is wonderfully over the top. Brilliant 🤩
The first woman is caring for her lover who's on a life support machine, hence her pleading "stay with me". The cruel, crazy, manically laughing woman who then appears represents death coming to take the man away. The two women fight over the man, until finally, and miraculously, he returns to consciousness. Death realises she has been deprived of a victim this time, and so just shrugs it off and retreats. She knows that all mortals have their time, so for her it's just a case of waiting.
I believe that you are correct, but I see Marcella Detroit as the personification of addiction, and Siobhan Fahey as the angel of death trying to release the man from his demon lover. In the end, the man comes back only to fall into the arms of his addiction once more. Death rolls her eyes as if to say that she’ll be back soon.
Wow, almost forgot about the genius of this masterpiece in every aspect...thank you for reminding me.
Marcella's voice is so beautiful on this, i was about 5 or 6 when this song came out, she always reminded me of my mum the way she looked, this song always got me in the feels as my mum left my dad when i was 2 and always wanted to be with her, still gets me to this day
I can't believe there are people who never heard of this song. I'm starting to feel old :)))
You sort of have to have been there when it hit the charts. It's a song people remember as being great, but it doesn’t get a lot of airtime.
This song is a legend…love it 🥰
I was a young emotional teen when this came out. What a time this was for epic ballads.
Finally a reaction to this MASTERPIECE. One of my ALL time favorite songs. I never get tired of it, and the music video is just amazing.
This song and video both would have deserved all the Grammys in the world. It's an incredible masterpiece.
The naughty one was drunk when she filmed this. Love, love this! More please
God I’m so lucky I was born in the 80s and I experienced such classics when they were released. I wonder how teens will react one day to the crap that’s on charts today. Great reaction!
Just put it on stranger things lol
When you were young the older ones said your music was crap, the circle of life
I can remember us all singing this and trying to hit the high notes!! Couldn't then, can't now!! Lol 😆 😆
I keep thinking it's just me that finds today's music is total crap this brilliant
@@onlyme219 no good is good crap even young people think so the guy reviewing it is young
"I think I popped my cherry, guys." - I fell out of my chair, into the floor! LMFAO!!! Your reaction is both hilarious, AND priceless. Thinking back to my first time hearing/seeing the video, I think my jaw dropped as well. Definitely one of my all-time favorites! ❤🔥
What he means by that? I dont know 😂 popping up his cherry
Hello sir . Thank you for respecting that song that much.
Jesus, I remember my best friend & I spending hours getting dressed up like these two & playing out this video when this song dropped.
We were soooo obsessed, and it's still brilliant.
Fucking iconic!
Siobhan Fahey (the girl with the contrasting dark voice) was formally from Bananarama who were a girl supergroup of the 1980s. He's knocking on death's door the guy, and Siobhan Fahey is "Death"
Siobhan started Shakespears Sister as a solo project when she felt herself got pushed to the background in Bananarama and also the band has gone into a very commercial pop direction. During the recording of the first album their common songwriter friend recommended the joint work with Marcella (aka Marcy Levy, earlier co-writer-musician of Bob Seger, Eric Clapton, Aretha Franklin and Robin Gibb) what became a duo performance after the success of 'You're History'. The third key person here is Jean Guiot aka Dave Stewart of Eurythmics who was Siobhan's husband at that time. The first album was closer the '80s new wave pop sound thanks to the fresh mood of Siobhan though the "silent movie look" advanced the gothic style of the 2nd album (with this song) inspired by experience of life and death (their pregnancies, death of close persons) and the '50s cult sci-fi B-movie 'Cat-Women on the Moon'.
This video was one of the really great moments of MTV of those days. I couldn't decide I'm in love with Siobhan or I wanna be like her 😊 And of course I always tried to sing the highs of Marcy (the big childhood challenge next to the voice of Freddie Mercury, Bruce Dickinson and 'Die Hölle Räche' of The Queen of Night 😄)
Marcella sang the Queen of the Night aria in a celebrity reality show called Opera Star. It's on CZcams
I was 21 when this came out and loved it from day one, still get goosebumps when I hear it. The whole album is awesome
Hands down one of the best songs and most iconic videos of the 90s. It peaked at #3 in my home country, Australia, which is a travesty. It should have been #1 for 8 weeks or more like it was in the UK. Still totally epic 30 years later.
One of the best music videos ever made, in my book.
This cassette single was played on repeat, until it broke in high school. 😂 I am so excited for the Ghost cover to release, from the new Insidious movie.
It is very hauntingly beautiful .. I remember this song . Very emotional :) Always loved it ..
Shakespears Sister are a brilliant duo! They split up and didn't speak to each each other for about 23 years! They reformed a few years ago to much critical success. You should listen to Goodbye Cruel World, Hello (turn your radio on), You're History, Heroine, Run Silent, Run Deep - there 's a great back catalogue
Don't forget Their new music All The Queen's Horses where they recreate these characters ❤
Hello is my absolute favorite song
How many albums did they do?
@@djavatar68 Two as a duo (1989 and 1992), two belatedly released as a solo act (2004 and 2009), one reunion EP (2019) and two official compilations (2004 and 2019).
The band's name was inspired by the title of a song by the The Smiths : "Shakespeare's Sister"
I was 14 years old when this came out and it BLEW my mind, so good!!!
Same!
Me too!!!!
Yes, I was 13 at the time and was introduced to them by my older brother. Loved it!
Love seeing your face. That is exactly how I felt the first time I heard it. Shoot. It's still how I feel.
One of my favorites.
Thank you.
Siobhan Fahey was a member of the band Bananarama and left to form Shakespears Sister
British music around this time was at its peak, so many great bands before and after this. Nothing beats British music... Nothing!
Marcella was not British…
@@Rosannasfriend Siobhan is also Irish, though British raised
Siobhan is Irish, I don’t think Irish people have been giving credit for what they have done in British music, oasis, the smiths, dusty Springfield, boy George, Kevin rowland. Irish people changed the face of British music
Another fun fact: the dying/living guy they're fighting over is Keren Woodward's (of Bananarama) baby daddy, David-Scott Evans
Turn The Radio On is another great one of theirs. Hormonally Yours was a great album. Good track on there.
One of the best ballads of all time
Hahahahaha! I love this song! Glad you liked it!🎉🎉🎉
The name of the demonic one is pronounced 'Shuh-vawn'
This song was a big hit my 12th grade year.🌹
Marcella Detroit(real name Marcy Levy)was a backup singer for Eric Clapton in the late ‘70s. Her voice can be heard in the chorus of his hit 1978 song “Lay Down,Sally”.
I think she's co credited as a writer too
Can't remember if she wrote it all but had a big hand in it , yes .
It was a fight between life and death. The woman was like the grim reaper coming to claim him but he came back to life.
Brilliant song, Detroit's fabulous vocals complement it perfectly & Siobhan's (pronounced "Shevon") Faheys lower tones sung in a naughty style are excellent too!
Detroit also appeared on "Absolutely Fabulous."
This came out when I was 7 years old.
I know that the lady on the stairs is representing death and our “main girl” is fighting her off to save him, but as a 7 year old girl I didn’t understand that metaphor, so to me This was the ultimate fairytale! The Princess had to save the Prince from the wicked witch and I loved it so much. Still do. I had the pleasure of showing my little sister and my daughter and they fell inlove with it as well. 😻 Shakespears Sister is also an amazing name for someone as poetical as these girls. So glad you liked this song. Will always be one of my favourites.
Oh dear, confession time: I was OBSESSED with this song and its video when it came out In 1992, so I can tell you a few things about it:
1. The song reached No. 1 in the UK singles chart and stayed there for eight consecutive weeks, a feat that has not been equalled or surpassed by a female band since. To be honest, it topped the charts for so long that, by the time that it was pushed off the top spot by another song, I think that we were all (secretly) a little relieved. 😓
2. I absolutely LOVED Siobhán Fahey’s performance in the video as the ‘Angel of Death’ - and so was a little disappointed to discover, years later, that she had allegedly been totally drunk whilst performing (having allegedly downed an entire bottle of vodka whilst waiting around on set to perform). Oh dear, and here was I thinking that all that fantastic ‘witchiness’ had been entirely down to pure talent (but I still love ya, Siobhán!). Whatever, Siobhán’s sublime ‘witchiness’ on camera here has, in my view, never been surpassed - before or since! 👏
3. The video was banned in Germany for - believe it or not - inciting witchcraft. 🧙♀️🪄🐈⬛👻 I’m not joking. Remember that we’re talking 1992 here, not 1492. The banning in Germany is all the more ironic given that the director of the video, Sophie Müller (who was a friend of the band), is German. 🇩🇪 😀
Well, if and that's a big IF it was ever banned in Germany they successfully contested the ban because it was played all the time on MTV in Germany.
@Robert Doyle Ha, ha, love it! So all that fantastic ‘witchiness’ is just pure talent, after all - not pure vodka! Gotta l❤️ve the Shuv! 🤣❤️🤣
Shakespeare's Sister are one of the best duos to come from the 1980s/1990s.....Sacred Heart and Hormonally Yours still sound as fresh as when they were first released...Stay is an epic song and one of their best. Fahey and Detroit are just sublime together.
Achingly beautiful song, Marcella Detroit should have been more famous in the mainstream, incredible voice.
Omg I'm so obsessed with them at the moment! The album it's from 'Hormonally Yours' is fantastic!
Classic 90's album!
Check out their albums after yhey split up , Marcellas' Feeler and Dancing madly side ways , or Siobhans' albums called #3 and Songs from the red room , to name but a few .
great album!
I love them so much. I have the CD and downloaded it on every single device I own.
They performed this live in November 2019. It's on CZcams. Amazing how young they still look.
A fantastic song. Both girls sing and act excellently! It grabs me, in a very emotional way. Oh, I love this song / video🙏🙏🙏💕♥️
One of the best music videos ever!
This is for sure one of the best visual representation of a song. This video is perfect, and the song one of the best.
I bought this cassette single when it came out in 1992! It was way ahead of its time, that's for sure! Fell in love with it the first time I heard it!
Me too! Loved a good little Cassingle :-)
Me too. Loved the b-side as well, 'The Trouble With Andre'.
The entire album “Hormonally Yours” is a gem. One of my favorites. Been bringing this band up since I first heard it to anyone who would take the time and listen. Definitely worth it.
one of my favorite dark ballads. the voices and the instrumentation are 🔥
I’m so happy you love SS. I had a gay man crush on Siobhan for years. Pure camp brilliance!! I’m always here for her eye-roll at the very end of the vid. If you want to hear more, try You’re History, Run Silent, Goodbye Cruel Word , Hello (Turn Your Radio On) and It’s a Trip.
Stay with meeeeeee......iconic video .iconic song. Their Hormonally Yours LP is FANTASTIC
My go to song when I’m drunk … and OMC - How Bizzare ! ❤😊
One of my favourite songs from 1991/2
Come on, does the long haired girl really looks like an angel to you? She's very clearly playing the death 😄
An absolute masterpiece,i remember when it first was released i was like omg this song is unreal.
This is EPIC, so 1992 - for me -
I loved singing this song, both singers, just to train my voice.
It's so so good!
I wish there was a 'bravo!' button instead of just 'like'. I loved your reaction to this. I was waiting for the high note at 07:01 to see how you'd react. You didn't let me down, Dereck.
In case you need to know, Marcella was an Opera singer before then. She really did put in a tremendous time of practice, and she can really hits those high notes and low notes. Take a good listen to her singing, especially at the end of the song. She is beautiful with her voice !!!
Anyone else waiting for that drop…. Perfection 👌🏼
Great British camp totally over the top brilliant
I’ve loved this song ever since I heard it in the 90s. I’ve showed it to my friends and family who weren’t very receptive to it. So I am glad there are others who still love and those who found it recently true music lovers
So glad you enjoyed the song. It’s amazing! Siobhan is not the one with short hair, she’s the one with long hair playing the Angel of Death. Siobhan was one of the original members of Bananarama and you also read the song writing credits which include Dave Stewart (Eurythmics). He and Siobhan were married in 1987 and were still together when this song was written, divorcing in 1996.
A real pop masterpiece that transcended the pop spectrum to be borderline indie. Especially for its time.
One of the most underrated duos ever. Musical heaven ❤️🔥
Brilliant song! Brilliant voices! Thanks Dereck!
The base drum is the heart beat of the man on the table. also the lady who comes down the stairs was Seriously drunk when filming this music video lol
This was the greatest Band to come out of the late 80s - 90s. The Video and Song won every award in the book at the time! They had loads of other hits by the way! Siobhan is pronounced 'Sheevawn' by the way. You really need to hear the Album this Song is taken from: 'Hormonally Yours' - it will blow you away!!
My husband and I love Shakespeare sister. We met in 1991 and got engaged in 1992. We will be married for 25yrs this year. It is always one of our songs. ❤
The long haired girl is Siobahn and she is originally from Bananarama.
I was 19 when this was released .. It still sounds amazing!! Siobhan Fahey and Dave Stewart were married at the time of Shakespeare Sister.
There were so many AMAZING girl groups in the 90's. I believe Shakespeare Sister took their name from an essay written by Virginia Woolf called titled'Shakespeare's Sister' in her book 'A Room of Ones Own'. Written from the perspective that if Shakespeare had a sister as talented as he, would she have been as celebrated and free to write/perform as her brother William Shakespeare.
Thist song should have won the grammy in it's time release, at least a nomination.
The first singer was Marcella Detroit, the second was Siobhan Fahey ( Sha-vohn Fahr-hee, Irish name). SS was Siobhan's post Bananarama project and Marcella was originally a "hired hand" in recording before they decided she should join and make it a duo. Siobhan named the project Shakespears Sister after the Smiths song Shakespeare's Sister, which in turn was a Virginia Woolf reference 🙂
Her voice in this is angelic
Such an iconic song! Love seeing you react to this amazing song :)
What a dazzling reaction of Derrek to this amazing song! Awesome!
One of the most iconic tracks and interesting duos of the 90s. As people have said Hormonally Yours was a great album.
I love this song, from the first time I ever heard it, and I just love how everyone reacts the same when that switch in the song happens! lol
Thank you for doing this video. I’m slightly deaf, and your gestures and notations really helped me to pick out the instruments more. I remember the Patrick Nagel art posters that depicted that high contrast black hair, white face on women. So it reminded so much of that and the girls in Robert Palmer’s videos. I felt the style was outdated, as we were already seeing grunge, metal, and hip-hop, etc. breaking the airwaves. This video still freaks me out to this day!
Very surprising but in a good way. I enjoyed it.
Marcella is the woman who wants her lover to stay. Siobhan is DEATH trying to steal him away. Siobhan was 1/3 of Bananarama and was married to Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics.
I love this song! Slays 💗💗💗
