Belly Gepetto BBC Live

[PuerileHoney]

Gail is super cool

[tonyvonkrefeld]

I saw them in Germany around 1995 on the same bill as Oasis, The Cranberries and REM...these were my favourites...Oasis were shite

[briand7555]

such a great band, so underrated. Star is one of the best albums of all time

[ronniepander]

To be fair "Star" sold well in excess of a million so it isn't true to say they didn't have a lot of success. The 2nd album wasn't a patch on the 1st though which probably didn't them any favours commerically.

Btw that "No Nirvana" programme featured a truly amazing collection of talent from that era. Thanks for posting this.

[lagunacat]

Happy Birthday Tanya!!!

[rockandrollismylife]

Happy Birthday!!!!!

[Nesihonsu]

Happy days, their first album was ace!

[KeithSoward]

absolutely love Belly. one of the best albums ever. strange that commercial success was not more.

[BASSLONDON123]

Oh Gail you mad Munchkin!

[rockandrollismylife]

I really like this band.

[ranka35]

i remember listening to this song!

[gazebbs123]

yes tanya's hot, yes belly were ace but this performance is poopoo

[Tockyard]

Well the main problem was that Female alt rock bands were a dime a dozen in the time period, but when you look back on it they were all fucking great. All the shit coming out these days doesnt have an ounce of soul in comparison to bands like Belly.

[JANGLEPOP1]

Oh Tanya, what a cutie you are. Talented and gorgeous, a beauty to behold and a terrific musician. Now, where`s my bromide?

[wisesatyr72]

Gorgousity to descibe tanya's face in this video

[millercrox]

i wish they could reform. what a loveley breeeze they were

[jewlsthewewls]

a videotape of this bbc late show special was essential viewing in my student digs ... this takes me right back ... tanya's out of tune singing is soooo pretty .... ;)

[calamagrostis88]

Brilliant, she creates a unique musical atmosphere, and she rocks hard. What happened to the songs of this era that are not getting the respect that they deserve?

[ColorsBright]

Tanya is the girlfriend I never had :o(

Everytime I see her I just smile.... and it feels good :o)

[tfranklin]

Ah, the days before autotune...

[transonicbuoy1]

Fucking dreadful. Come on then...

[bluemoon9uk]

There used to be the really nice video for 'Not too soon' by the Muses on Youtube, but now thats gone. An awesome song and she looked so hot in the video...........bring it back! Where's it gone???

[PappyHab]

Back then I really believed Belly were going to be Rock Monsters, was I ever Naive. Letterman, cover of Rolling Stone. Dont know what happened along the way, there are stranger stories I guess. You had it going on Tanya, hope you still do. Always rooting for the Underdog.

[ehors123]

@PappyHab -Maybe they were caught up in this whole “It’s uncool to promote yourself if you are a real artists” type atmosphere which was still prevalent back then.

I love Belly. I think they could have survived little bit longer if they promoted little harder. Realistically speaking, I don’t think they would have survived commercially beyond early 2000 even if they did that though.

[Dorilana]

She has such a cool voice. Does anyone know where to find the song, "Broken' from the Mallrats soundtrack from BellY? I searched it on here even using her name - Tanya Donelly.. but nuthin' :(

If anyone knows where to find this song on the internet I'd be very grateful! Thank you ^-^

[partigus]

Not to sound like a Smart @###= but the Mallrats soundtrack.

I akso had missed that she was on the ST uunitl a recent watch- great song- great place in the movie

[dukedalto]

the song "Broken" is on Sweet Ride: the best of Belly. And it's also on the Mallrats soundtrack.

[Dorilana]

Yes guys, I know it's on the MallRats Soundtrack, hence me mentioning it in the question! I just wanted to know if I could find the video on You Tube or the internet anywhere is all! Thanks though.

[BestMusicExpert]

@Dorilana Other than the best of and the Mallrats soundtrack it was on the Twister Soundtrack as well. It was also a b-side to something, can't remember what though.

[Dorilana]

@BestMusicExpert

@BestMusicExpert

Thanks very much for your help, I appreciate it! Looks like someone has added it since my search! - Just search "Belly - Broken"

Love it! :)

[mels110]

Gail mit Röckchen und Bikerstiefel... Sweetheart!

[Bntnredsox]

I met Tanya in '94 playing a free concert in downtown Providence, R.I. She is great!!

[angrydog1295]

i fell in love with belly when I heard their cover of experienced on a a Jimi Hendrix cd..... I mean , listen to it.. Gillette stadium should play it.

Before that, I knew them as a bar band....never thought much of them. cute girls, not much interested in cute boys, but so what...if I won the lottery, I would track Tayna down and make her take a millions dollars because she is that good.

[Vanesal7]

What happened with Gail? I mean after L7...

[HolyWut]

shame that tanya's a lesbian

[lsnows]

She's not gay. She's married and has three daughters.

[graham10km]

2 daughters!

[dontaleto]

i wish i had gail bass. i love this song

[miltonhowe]

tanya is a cutie no matter what hairstyle.

[lsnows]

Tanya's such a cutie with red hair! Gail rocks too. Thanks for the upload. Geeze, I miss the 1990s.
