The Bangles - Going Down To Liverpool - Live - 1986

[Choc1Joe]

As always, the live version rocks harder than the studio version! Very good!

[kjb40]

There are not many male or female drummers who can play and sing at the same time great sound

[generalhans1]

best song ever. who doesnt agree is a fuckin asshole!

[azzurri7861]

i jus love these women..they are so talented..everything that they sing is sooo hotttt..susanna hoffs is so gorgeous..actually they all are pretty

[9teen75]

Vicki rocks!!!!

[Nigelxman]

Thankfully this was as big as their hair ever got. :-) Nice job though. Sounds good.

[kentkatchem]

would've cared more about this song more..if Susanna waz in it more...

[LTF6161]

@kentkatchem

Well, she doesn't sing lead, and she doesn't play lead guitar. So why would she be in it any more than she is? I guess you don't like the Bangles. You like one of the Bangles.

[kentkatchem]

@LTF6161 nO, I LOVE the ONLY true bangel here... but hey, don't be a hater... ;)

[LTF6161]

@kentkatchem

I don't know about the "only true bangel [sic]" but the BEST Bangle is Michael Steele;)

[kentkatchem]

@LTF6161 Well, not into the national Republican stuff...but, hey...ride w/the horse the got y'a there.. ;) Just love my girl ...that's all...

[zed0469]

I had a massive crush on Susanna Hoffs

[LTF6161]

In one way it was two band, Debbie and Vicki...and Michael and Susannah. You can see it in this video.

[makingsense53]

I love this song. I saw the Bangles in Washington, DC in the mid 80's and they were great, but of course at the time they only had about 40 minutes of material. In my opinion The Bangles and the Go Go's are the best two all girl rock groups of all time. They played their own instruments and wrote some of their own songs and looked great. They rock. Peace.

[LTF6161]

They rock out a bit more in this live version than in the studio-version. I like both

[Megamusic2000]

This is magic and love in all senses! Really really beautiful! Thank you for uploading it!

[mysterymac38]

For those interested and for those who dont care, a ub40 is an unemploymet benifit form #40 which was used in england.

[BeccaGSD]

@mysterymac38 knew and LOVE you know

:) beautiful

[kolbpilot]

@mysterymac38 One learns something all the time. Here I always thought they were carrying a UB40 album around. Silly me.

[willnotallow]

@kolbpilot

UB40 is the unemployment form the band of that name

used to sign on the dole in Brum.

They used that form number as their band name.

[kolbpilot]

@willnotallow Ah-so says the blind man. Learned something again, though I never cared for ub40.

[1Catherine101]

@kolbpilot haha...

[wotrabbitfish]

oh to be young & horny again, sigh...

[gmartinz01]

"Syria Mosque Arena?"

[KissFanSite]

You are correct!

[Bansheeeyes78]

My days here....Great song!!

[vordman]

Hey, their live playing puts a lot of male bands to shame, good on ya, girls!

[TheGodParticle]

Like this, the girl in the red dress looks like an orange county porn star. thanks

[NickB1967]

It was the 1980's, you had to have been there....

[LetsNotBeL7]

Fab!!!

[keefek]

Honestly, these women should have been giants.

Wonder why they weren't world-killers?

[gitchigoomi]

Did you sleep through it? They were huge pop stars back in the day.

[keefek]

Ummm, no. I didn't sleep through it. But the question is, Have they maintained a base of listeners? I wonder.

For me, they were a great band --- they actually played the instruments, just like the guys.

Guess I always thought that popular opinion threw them away, and I thought that was wrong.

[gitchigoomi]

Just joking. Your comment reminded me of something my father recentely said. I was listening to Zeppelin and he stopped in the room and listened for a couple minutes. Then he said,  "They have a good sound. I think they are going to make it."

[keefek]

Hey, I love what your father said. And, hey, he's probably my generation!

[LTF6161]

Good god, how old is your dad. Or how old are you?

[gitchigoomi]

He was joking. It's a great thing to say about a group long gone that changed music.

[chuckschilling]

@keefek

There's this thing about stardom - it rarely is accorded to those who have earned and deserve it.

[LTF6161]

@keefek. They were.

[FrostedFen]

Loved this song in my teens, always thought the drummer and bassist were way cooler than the other two!

[breadbaker]

Freak... ;)

No you are not!

[IIIIdepechemodeIIII]

@FrostedFen fuck yeah. i totally agree.

[dingleberry1989]

nice

[Coryesp79]

God, they are the hottest, sexiest, coolest, rockinest chicks to ever step foot on stage. I saw them at my County fair last September (minus Michael) and they still f'n rocked. I love you Vicki!!!

[edditude09]

Love watching Michael and Susanna Flirting...

[innergroov2]

Michael!!! kisss

[edditude09]

Love watching Suzanna and Michael stare each other off and duel together

[Mustyke]

Play, sing and look sexy all at the same time, now that's talent!

[ottowes]

Wild and free! Great version of this song by four HOT rockin' ladies!

[craggon13]

the splitarses can actually play!!!!!! now that is girl power!

[Beatlomano]

Esta banda esta inspirada en el Cuarteto de Liverpool tanto a si que la lider del grupo toca una guitarra similar a la que usaba John Lennon...

[sancombru]

Y fue mas alla: Rickenbacker saco un modelo especialmente para ella, y esa que toca es la primera en salir de la fabrica. Se reconoce facilmente por su nombre (Susanna Hoffs) esta escrito en letras plateadas sobre el frente del cuerpo de la guitarra justo debajo de los microfonos y antes del mastil.

[LTF6161]

Es verdad...Banglesista!

[nomadically02]

I love this version its they sound perfect even for singing live! & that skirt susanna is wearing is the sexiest thing ever :)

[trufaithmax]

awesome!

[filatelista2009]

Seems like they're rushing through it.  A little slower would have been better.

[puacino]

Grandissime! Awesome song!

[mikkifly]

GREAT SONG

[julianeperiard]

They are simply THE BEST!

[LatinoAzure]

Mellow song; dancing like that doesn't go along with it. ....and the neg. numbers will soon start piling up. LOL!

[ottowes]

Rocking the Casbah for sure!

[gwddd]

OH NO! Susanna got electrocuted !! Oh, wait... it's just a perm that she teased out ot the max. Never mind !

[NickB1967]

It was the 1980's.....

[mikec717]

That first album of theirs is just superb. Thanks for posting this.

[madmax8000]

great harmonies

[paintedbird]

Do you have the full show? I've been trying to find this full concert for years now.

[vinalooch]

I used to have it recorded from the MTV airing - its gone now and am looking for it also. Please post more if someone has it!

[BlakAshs]

Sweeeeet!
