"Not In Love" Platinum Blonde 2008

[CekkeryFanLover]

sergio gali is my step sis' uncle lol

[troglodyto]

oh wow this is so much cleaner than the version they played for their video. i'd say this is better than the crystal castles cover version.

[ERICWENDYBRIAN]

Why doesn't Mark play bass again like he did in the Standing In The Dark days?

[phantomlord91]

Lol rather Platinum Grey nowadays :P Great music though! ^^

[Iheartbritishaccents]

They're still attractive.

[TNO73]

WOW I can't believe that Mark Holmes STILL sounds this amazing! This song is almost 30 years old. Most singers don't sound as good as they once did, but this. This is still good.

[dataspank]

This is funny to hear Mark Holmes awesome voice coming from .... well from Mark Holmes but a different style of Mark Holmes. Thanks to whomever filmed and posted this. Love it! Tom in BC

[MusicLyricsOfLove]

Me and the girlfriend were back stage having a few drinks with Mark and his band, 80's Rock !!!!

I'm about the same age as Mark.Holmes,aging but still have the good looks.

[perrydasavage]

Platinum Blonde still have IT!! Great back in the day ... still great now!!

[chefshitpiece]

Mark Holmes is one of ther few guys who actually sounds live like he does on the album. Most other singers are so bogue!

[scrattycat]

Chris has a much longer history with the band. Sacha only came in toward the end...RIP Kenny! You are missed by everyone who knows anything about this great Canadian band!

[scrattycat]

Chris has a much longer history with the band. Sacha only came in toward the end...RIP Kenny! You are missed by everyone who knows anything about this great Canadian band!

[pbarc552]

Mark Holmes voice is spot on! After all this time...and live...WOW!!

They sound great!! I grew up listening to their music and I think I wore the tape out. I had to buy another cassette of alien shores.

Platinum Blonde: You guys are fantastic! I love your music! Would love to see you live! Thanks for the great tunes! Please tour Ontario!

[acinemajunkie]

I've seen reunion gigs by the Pistols and the Stones, but I have to say -- PB right here have more of the rock n roll persona in them. Especially Holmes...he looks great and he's still got that hunger in his eyes.

[DMANN1972]

I wonder why PB doesnt sing any of there songs from the 1990 album yeay yeay yeah?songs like Tara,Cool,California Skies,Hold On Me,Rain On Me,does anyone remember these songs?

[DMANN1972]

this is so awesome to see and hear!! Ive always loved this song and to see them perform it again is breath taking.

[playit00]

Anyone know what happened to the reunion tour that they were planning?? I want to see these guys again!!

[adamtheberge]

@playit00 so far its only been a few "one off" shows, Holmes has said there is a full reunion going to happen this year, lets hope so (2011)

[168charger]

They were such a cool band!!!!!!!!!!!

[maindrag]

@168charger I didn't know them as a band but I knew Chris from up North and he was a really nice guy. Saw them again in To (as a band) and he was still a nice guy.

[168charger]

@maindrag They should have gone much farther than they did! They had such a different sound and it was very right for the time.

[shafo85]

hes a good singer

[THECURELOST13]

it is a flat-out crime to cut that song off early.

[fapgtrplyr]

CRYSTAL CASTLE FTW!!!

[pankkke]

el tema está copado.. pero la caga la voz del cantante

[THECURELOST13]

they are even better live. REALLY impressed by them.

[bodizone1]

awesome mark!! 25 plus years, and your vocals still kick ass!! better than anything today!!!!! thanks for great 80's memories

[SNK038]

Does anybody have their 1998(99?) Much Music Live appearance? I have wanted to see it again for over 10 years!!!

[ursomtl]

Amazing signing after all these years, he still has the passion. But who's the brown haired guy anyway? LOL

[SpinnyL]

@ursomtl LOL the brown haired guy is Mark Holmes... lead singer *smiles* and he said this goes out to "Kenny"... Kenny McLean the keyboardist who died in 2008

[jamieburkey]

ok. reunion. right now. reunion

[shakinanabakin]

Love em with Chris on drums, the real Platinum Blonde with the real drum sound and Chris has great stage presence

[atariadrian]

It looks like Chris Steffler is anxious to start the song.

[ryesor]

thanks for sharing that...... my first concert was platinum blonde in 83 with nilly idol at the winnipeg arena........ awesome

[chancesdad]

Gorgeous band. I cherish Kenny's autograph.....

[RCdrumaniac]

IMO it only sounds like PB when Chris is on the drums. No disrespect to the others, thats just how it is.

[whatthefluk]

100% agreed. Chris is the ONLY drummer of Platinum Blonde IMO.

[freeloader1974]

Wow, they sound really good live. I'd love to take my wife to a reunion show. Would certainly bring back some memories of the great Canadian rock bands of the 80's.

[whatthefluk]

It's great to see Chris back on the drums with Platinum Blonde, where he belongs.

Congrats on the Hall of Fame induction. WAY OVER DUE!!!

The amazing news for all of us is, I read that PB are working out some reunion dates!!!!

[RhythmusBleiben]

mark holmes dj's at the mod club, where this was filmed.

[greymilton]

@RhythmusBleiben Really? Is he still recording? They could seriously do quite well and have a blast touring... they should hook up with either Honeymoon Suite or Glass Tiger! Although I believe that Alan Frew is a motivational speaker now!

[AAprodutions]

@greymilton Mark Holmes actually owns the MOD club.

And daaaaamn, they looks really good for their age! Still smokin!

[greymilton]

Cool!

[erv66]

COME TO VANCOUVER

[greymilton]

@erv66 Hey... you have the Olympics! Isn't that enough? ;-)

[erv66]

Vancouver never has enough olympics were a blast though

[tinteee]

I use to listen to them when i was younger. Mark sounds amazing still! Hope I can see them sometime.

[finkleiseinhorn26]

WOW!!! He sounds AMAZING!!!!!!

[frenchwv]

Vox are spot on.

[platinumshark1963]

What a Exceptional Talented band!!! They Rocked Nathan Philips outdoors in the winter.

Over 23 years later they still look and sound GREAT. I know the band had a bit of a falling out. If you were to have tour again. Your die hard fans (and new ones) ... would be at your shows. Please give us a opportunity to listen live to one of the Best Canadian bands that had the passion, music, charisma and stage presence you have and WILL HAVE for your future shows...MANY THANKS!!!

[ERICWENDYBRIAN]

Mark should be playing bass again! Good performance. They sound the same!

[SwtCdnLady]

So, so, sooooo sexy!

[whatthefluk]

Thank you. I work out.

[f89276704]

Good to see Sergio there.

[greymilton]

This is awesome! I will definitly see these guys again!

[yayaang]

come to my city..lol. love the music

[playit00]

Anyone know if they will be touring??

[TheNintendoJuggalo]

@playit00 Not sure, but they are coming out with a new album.

[habs357]

Saw them live in '85 in Halifax. Awsome sound. They sound just as good if not better now. Seems like yesterday. '80s were the best :)

[bubbamackdaddy69]

nice...25 years later...still sounds awesome... I feel old now...lol

[greymilton]

Hahaha! Me too! Saw them in '86 in Montreal!

[Ladybrytt]

In love with them since I was 7! First tape I ever bought, songs are on my MP3 and this song is blasted almost daily :)

[SNK038]

I first heard "Not in Love" back in 1998 or 1999 on a Much Retro Weekend and it changed my life because of certain things happening during that time. I proceeded to pick-up the Standing in the Dark album in an old record store bin here in Calgary. Does anybody know where I can find a copy of their Much Music performance from the end of the 90s? The second song in the set was "Somebody Somewhere". I have been desperately to find that version of Not in Love for the past 10 years.

[SNK038]

I'm only 25 years old and this is my favorite song in the world. It gives me chills everytime I hear it.

[Paulluv]

RIGHT ON

[bubbabubba20042004]

Wow, still got it. Don't let Adam Lambert take this classic.

[gillesgariepy]

Vraiment chouette de les revoir sur scène et quand même encore pas mal en forme!

[jamieburkey]

can we say REUNION tour

[erv66]

@jamieburkey A TOUR IS IN THE WORKS

[adamtheberge]

@jamieburkey full reunion tour coming fall 2011, plus new album

[r4mbl3r69]

WOW!!! they still sound great, they still look fantastic and i still want to be their groupie! wow, i loved them when i was 16 and i freaking still love them at 39! aaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!

[tammyleawatson]

I Know Kenny Meant Alot to & was Friends with a Wonderful Disabled Girl at Bloorview childrens Hospital!! I Met The Lead Singer not Talkative! Oh Well!

[whatthefluk]

I found Mark to be a cool guy. My girl is a huge Platinum Blonde fan(like myself). She loved the jacket Mark wore on the SITD album cover, so I asked him where I could find it. I emailed him once and he replied like a gentleman.

No disrespect to Mark but if any one (rock star or not) gave attitude to ANY Disabled human, I would punch his lights out! Who gives a flying rats ass if your a rock star!

[08030309961]

Whatthefluk! Cheers bro! You are right on my friend!

[simonlebon29]

Mark and the rest of the boys still got it! Wow.... RIP Kenny...

[macleodmovies]

RIP Kenny. And what an honor to finally shake hands with Mark after a No.9 performance in Red Deer . Still love that CD. And now my 6yr old walks around singing "Doesn't Really Matter"

[jrssww]

awesome!

[Lowrider68]

These days, Mark co-owns the Mod Club and deejays there too.

[whatthefluk]

Man, Mark still sounds great! Sergio is and always was awesome. Chris is THE best drummer and to me, the only drummer of Platinum Blonde.

cinematicpro please, please, please can you upload the other songs?

Thanks buddy

[danalyjah]

Was Kenny in this video? Who was the guy off to the left?

[RCdrumaniac]

This was the tribute show for Kenny. The bass player on this occasion was Denis Martel, Kenny's buddy.

[danalyjah]

Thank you. I am from Buffalo and we listened to Platinum Blonde via the Canadian radio stations such as CFNY. Our music sucked. The Canadian music was great. This is a great loss . Thanks for the reply.

[lisawt]

I met Kenny years ago in Kelowna BC. while he was performing there. Great guy and wonderful singer. I didn't know he had left us. RIP Kenny. You will never be forgotten

[megjusfel]

amazing amazing amazing

i vote for a reunion

Marc, Chris, Sergio

GO FOR IT!!!!!

[goneshootin22]

One of my teachers at school said he met the singer in a bar once. If I remmember correctly he said he owns a hair salon now or something? Anyways this is my favourite Platinum Blonde song. I almost cried when I found out kenny died :(

[guyfidelity]

I just bought a set of hi hats off Chris this past weekend, super nice cat. It is a shame about Kenny but it's nice to see they could all get together and honor him in such a nice way. Ohhhhhh the memories...

[reqbat]

good god he still sounds amazing.

rip kenny.

<3

[TRUEMETAL22]

damn i wish they still had the cool hair and close

[whatthefluk]

I'm a huge Metal fan as well. I see you like Arch Enemy and Manowar! :)

[cinematicpro]

I thought they still did have cool hair? But close... close to what?

[yagher]

Probably meant to say "clothes".

They look hawt!

[Vengeance31]

@cinematicpro I think he meant Clothing. lol

You'll have to forgive today's school system. Leave no one behind, including the slightly retarded ones.

[MrLisztomaniac]

@cinematicpro i think he meant clothes

[RebelRodent]

@cinematicpro Oh pretty sure that's a poor spelling of "clothes"...

[THECURELOST13]

@TRUEMETAL22 i think their hair is MORE cool now.

[1010man]

ver cool, I would even buy a DVD,

I hope KENNY is watching,

Miss you buddy!!

KEEP HIM ALIVE IN ARE HARTS PLATNUM BLOND!

I feal watching this he is there,

Man I miss him, few weeks ago when his cell phone was still on it was good to her his voice , It feals like a bad dream and he will just call one day,

R.I.P. keep the party going!

[coxman66]

Good Times U guys still rock.

[1010man]

any more video of this show??

[whatthefluk]

I contacted the cinematicpro and he said that there is a couple more that will be added when he gets a chance.

[angeloconn]

PLz let me know, if that guy has the other 2 songs!

[1010man]

soory guys! Im balling my eys out right now,

ken was a REAL friend to me, Guys!! keep him alive in our harts!! GO ON TOUR!!!!!!

nice to see you again Chris, you look at home on those drums,

J from FM RADIO!!

[yagher]

How amazing do these guys look and sound after more than 20 years! Even though Mark, Sergio and Chris were the original members of PB, Kenny made the band complete. A reunion is so long overdue. I hope they still go through with it even though the thought of Kenny not being with them is hard to bare. I'm sure he would have wanted them to do it regardless. Mark, it's time...

[whatthefluk]

I like how Mark changed the lyrics slightly at the beginning. Very respectful to Kenny since it was dedicated to him.

Mark rules. Been a fan since the beginning. I'll never forget the first time I saw them live at City Hall. I was 11. WoW how time flew by so fast.

[james121268]

Platinum Blonde are #1

[james121268]

This is the best live version to date for this son but I am a huge fan of theres so I would like anyhing they do they are my favourite band of all time and when Mark belst out love in this video it sounds great so please Mark if you see this message please think of your fans and get to work on the reunion tour you will be surprised at how many people out there still love the sound of Platinum Blonde young and old these days even if you only do it for a short time your fans will appreciate it

[james121268]

this is one ofthe best live versions i have ever heard I was there at the Mod Club that night and it was fantastic they sounded like they did the first time i ever heard them live they could ROCK ON for a least a few more years and they are my favourite band of all time I have been a fan of theres since 1983 wow where has time gone

[canpsychu7]

count me in for another reunion vote...seriously guys, time to head back to the studio...you still got it... a great, unique sound...

[shakinanabakin]

How come they always sound better when Chris Steffler is on the drums. He has way better stage presence than Sasha or Juice as well. Chris I dont know if you check these sites, get the boys back together.

[hmala]

I'd pay $100 for a PB concert just like I did for DD recently! Go on tour!!!!

[whatthefluk]

I'd pay $100.00 easily.

[3css]

I agree you guys should put a reunion tour on I have been a fan of Platinum blonde since they first came out back in 1983 and I recently saw the concert put on for Kenny Maclean and you guys sound like you havent miss a beat you guys could definately rock on as Kenny would of put it

[PedesX]

You guys must re-unite! And finally that DVD may be released! You guys are the best and you rule!

[vancouvergirl35]

I am seriously still the hugest fan of Platinum Blonde, please do a reunion tour! You guys are absolutely brilliant!!!

[whatthefluk]

"Mark belongs on stage with a microphone not a turntable."

Excellently put. I couldn't have said it better myself.

It would be a shame and a waste of such good chemistry for them NOT to do a reunion.

[tammyleawatson]

WHATTHEFLUNK! sORRY FOR THE mix up1! Kenny did work with diabled youth befriended some one i knew! Met the lead singer at a store i worked at not very talkative! Two different situations! must have been early in the am. when i wrote it! Thanks for comment!

[riffwagner]

Really love this!!!! Platinum Blonde rock... Awesome!

[angeloconn]

This what Kenny wanted! Its all up to you guys to play a full concert plz....You can do it , all your fans will bak you- we love you guys!

[angeloconn]

You guys still have it, Mark - Sergio - Chris plz have a concert, we miss you guys. Kenny wanted you guys to get bak together...plz do it for him and your fans and yourselves.. To the best band I know, I love you guys.....

[whatthefluk]

YES! YES! YES!

Sergio still looks like a true Rock Star.

cinematicpro, is there a chance of you uploading the other songs (if you have them)?

Thanks!

[whatthefluk]

What other songs did Platinum Blonde perform?

[cinematicpro]

Doesn't Really Matter was one other.

[whatthefluk]

Thank you

[angeloconn]

No it doesnt brother!

[CplusV]

For a one camera bootleg with a built in mic...They really captured something there.

Love to see a Platinum Blonde show from one of Canada's best live rock performers ever.

[cinematicpro]

Denis Martel is on Bass Guitar. I think he did a great job on this. It's just too bad that the amateur video people had to get between Mark & Denis so they ruined the ability to show the whole stage video. You can see him at the end of the video.

[RCdrumaniac]

Denis and The High Rollers - A classy group of talented musicians.

[angeloconn]

He did a great job it was hard for the poor guy!

[hotdave86000]

chris your drums gr8t (try sample drums) gr8t friend happy holidays!!? 2009

[kittenrocksTO]

Didn't know Platinum Blonde was still playing, where can I see them? Brings back fond memories of the 80's :)

[devilishgrinzie]

Wow these guys still have it after all these years. Would love to catch them in concert now.

[ggriffstar]

it was a great night... Platinum Blonde you guys Rock! although Kenny is not around still his memory lives on!

[HicknStick]

These guys still sound GREAT!

That Stick man is off the hook!!!

And still mighty handsome!

[RCdrumaniac]

I was there as well ThatGirl and it was an amazing show. All of the bands were great.

[RCdrumaniac]

Excellent performance! Great to see the original guys playing so well together. What a cool way to pay homage to a fallen bandmate.

REUNION TIME

[whatthefluk]

Amazing. They sound as good as ever.

I agree. REUNION TIME

[james121268]

yeah i would have to agree they did an awesome job and Kenny would of been so pleased

they also didnt sound off beat at all

[ThatGirl61]

Thanks for adding this!!! I was at the club, was an amazing show.
