Grace Jones - Private Life (1980)

[Marchant2]

So ahead of her time. 

[TheNouveauxdecadence]

Je n'ai marre with your theatrics,

Your acting's a drag,

It's ok on TV, but you can turn it off

[hidepuller2008]

lol that mask at the start almost had me fooled.

[MennoMmM]

'I'm very superficial, I hate everything official'

That's so deep!

[generalzorn]

Who else could pull off this video? One mask, one close-up and one take for the whole video - no edits - and entirely emotionless for most of it... boy she knows how to perform and how to look at a camera.

[dtireli]

like, like

[manley1983]

She scared me growing up! But as an adult, I see what A Legend and innovator, she is!!!!!

[GratefulVince]

Wow u can really tell if u watch a few Grace Jones video that she must've been a huge influence on Lady Gaga. This woman deserves more praise!

[ThePaperFalcon]

Why do I love Grace Jones so much? Wild woman. She is amazing.

[curvbyb5qua3]

wow, I like ole grace, but she can't sing worth a dam

[The3rdHiltonSister]

[planphoton]

How ridiculous. How can Grace be the wannabe when Grace was doing this stuff 30 years before Gaga ?

[keepItreal923]

A Real superstar ...imagine if she was a different color... She would be way bigger than Lady..."What's her name) Lol Just kidding . I like everyone's music but...I recognize an originator of true talent.

[RunwayBrandon]

[Brightmidnight777]

funny stuff

[zephyros9]

CLASSIC, TRIPPY, AMAZING, AWESOME Grace Jones. Thanks for this!

[ShinySilverBunny]

i love her weirdness... she is the epitomy of ultimate cool

[TheEmadia]

Don't understand how any one can say Grace Jones is 'ugly'.

Her bone structure is incredible, her lips extraordinary, skin like velvet, she is tall and sensual. She is an artist - unusual and not cutesy cutesy. She is edgy and full of fun - a really elegant, sexy, beautiful woman.

[XxXRammsteinxRoXxXxX]

Why would anyone think she is ugly? Are they serious?

[Cabronosidad]

Great upload. Thanks.

[JED1138]

To those who like this video/song I need to know why. I haven't slept for days racking my brain to find a logical reason. Please post!

[314Livi]

[erictheviking871]

[Willwrestleu]

[megacity1music]

Grace the original Sith lord.

[frakazzo]

[willwilliams85]

"your private life drama baby leave me out"...

[tahbonius]

She is breathtaking. She my hero!

[1camera2men]

1980, and Miss Jones was already waves ahead of the new and next wave. She is and always has been a harbinger of creativity!

[WoodRatGirl]

Sorry for the repeat posting, that was mostly YouTube's fault and not mine.

[WoodRatGirl]

This song that Grace is singing, is infact an excellent cover of a song by The Pretenders, which is written by the lead singer of The Pretenders who is Chrissie Hynde.

[WoodRatGirl]

This song is Grace's cover of The Pretenders' song, which is written by Chrissie Hynde who is the lead singer of The Pretenders.

[reggaejen]

[Mangabust]

Amazing song ! love it

[smashleigh96]

most people thinks shes so weird and ugly, But i think shes so sexy!! hahaha

[Electricdreamzz]

Thanks for posting this track very cool track , amazing lyrics too.

[rrraaagggeeee]

no problem... i originally posted it back in 2006 and unfortunately, youtube suspended my original accounts; thus my original upload of this video disappearing. Fortunately, people saved the original upload as an flv file and reposted.

Hopefully, everybody can enjoy this superior quality... 'rage' often play this and other rare clips - but you have to live in Australia to view them on your TV.

Cheers

[Hagwalah2008]

"but you have to live in Australia to view them on your TV" - and what If someone have a satellite television, ugh...?

Just kidding :)

Great classic track.

[rrraaagggeeee]
