Clare Grogan 'Happy Birthday' live 13/9/08.

[nkobtopenworld]

She's just lovely!

[TheClement45]

Too good.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[martinbobfrank]

Just as much energy as when she was younger, how I loved Clare when I was younger. Now I'm older I am just jealous of the guy or gal who met and married her (!!).

[solefthanded2]

@martinbobfrank

"guy or gal"

That's so PC, and not in a good way either......

[Turenkarn]

yeps still kicking. the last thing i seen her in is red dwarf early seasons.

[marcel911]

She still has the moves :)

[themachman19691]

5 people didn't have a happy birthday

[TheCoverHeaven]

Nice to see her after 30 years looking so good!

[jiggarypokery]

Clare is amazing love her performance.. her backgrounders were shit though. The sound and background performners was s,h.i.t. .. i bet they jumped at the chance to ad it to their c.v that they had performed with Clare Grogan too..

[jayindiepopwavers]

I LOVE YOU CLARE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH...........

[kristallin]

What a freakin' babe!

[DDay12G]

Ohhh how I wish she'd played the second Kochanski as well :/

But still, she's awesome (:

[doesnthurt2try]

[xsmullx]

What more can you say…………..!! Top class!

[TrolleyDave]

She can still bounce around! Totaly hottie!

[fredmila]

Everybody likes her

[40harb]

claire has been sexy to me since i first saw her in gregorys girl in 1981 and she still is

[TravelAtmosphere]

Wow, she sounds so close to their original recordings even after all these years! She's adorable.

[vetb882]

Wooow, I remember you. Her band was the first Alt Rock band I ever heard on WLIR in NY back in the day. Been a News Waver since. Man I miss those times and yes, Claire look WAAAAYYYYY better than Ms Ciccone.

[pulsar46]

What an awesome woman, love her!

[JonnyBgood41]

Fucking gorgeous.Always was..Still is..And she still got the same great voice....

[paul36uk]

Still beautiful, still sounding exquisite.

[planetrockford]

Forget going to the gym she is the perfect exercise equipment.

[zuton100]

STILL FIT

[Striker1973666]

Absolutely gorgeous!...im 37..i would try an chat her up no worries! lol

[marcol68]

She is still gorgeous!

[TheGrouse]

Does this woman age?

[ealingbroadway2000]

Wow still as lovely as ever, what a chic

[TheRhythmBlade]

SHE PLAYED AGAIN?when is the USA TOUR!?

[imdjc4]

I wish more girls today would aspire to the likes of Claire Gorgan rather than Madonna  - both musically and spiritually. Life would be better. She is still as refreshing a lady who remains timeless and ages with grace and beauty.

[joeljack1]

Thanks for posting. Clare looks great. She's aged beautifully.

[jimpanzer07]

such great music from the 80s!

[CounsellingQld]

when I think of Clare I think of John Peel then Im sad...then I smile and dance

[ncholette]

What on earth do you mean? Clare looks just the same as she did singing this on Top of the Pops. She just has slightly longer hair and different clothes on. And please no more M words! My dad used to play this on every one of my birthdays and still does, he says Clare is still hotter than hot.

[srxplayer]

She is still so cute.

[wbrisett]

wow, this is great. Thanks.

[Innersymbiance]

Awesome!! thanks for this!! Lovely Clare, I still have her Albums.

Still looks some a Beauty, and she's still got that Energy

She will always.

Thanks again for sharing A++++++++++++

[INITIALSJE]

It sorta makes you want to cry. I always like to think of my favorite bands/singers as they were when they were younger. The idea is that age is how you feel on the inside, but what can ya do.

[INITIALSJE]

Clare Grogan and Claudia Brücken (Propaganda) are about the same age I think. They both have aged flawlessly. I mentioned Claudia because she was also one of my favorite singers when I was younger.

[themachman19691]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh the lovely claire,this is briliant!thanks so much for posting popsikate.x

[allydom11]

still as lively still as hot still as good i love to love clare grogan you wee minx sooooo bloody gorgeous more more more

[AmazingFriendlyApple]

Still a goddess after all these years! The song ain't bad either!

[stinkycricket]

i feel like a kid again, that women is the greatest "old bird" in the world.

proper timeless tune too. Love it

[markdon16]

Watched her in concert in Manchester in the 80's, they were supporting the Damned..great concert

[thomasmoredamian]

@markdon16: my band, Memory opened for a few bands that I love back in the late '80s...The Damned, The John Cale Band, Dead Kennedys....if I could add Altered Images to that list I'd die happy...

[mechanicalmusic]

...and she can still pull the notes. BRAVO!

[wazonu]

Not a bad set, but it's a bit sad that all the other original band members wouldn't be there. Not defeating very old habits tend to get the very best of you.

[RoboApe666]

This isn't my usual cup of tea, but god damn that's a catchy song!

[BritainVthatsme]

Her voice still sounds great!

[MrRocfan]

Judging by the comments I would have had to join a VERY long queue. Still hot despite the years.

[suttonguy]

yes....i fancied clare too,she was so cute....and the band wasn`t too shabby either,i had all of their stuff on vinyl back in the day...

[iamthenakedape]

yep agree with all comments, had a huge crush on her then and even bigger one now

[JadedRomantic]

Today is My Birthday, not a very happy one either. Can I have Clare for my birthday, wearing nothing but a smile as she jumps out of a cake?

[celtostara]

love the "you've made an old bird very happy" bit at the end. still able to belt a song out and still looking really good so not bad for an old bird.

[lolypop120]

STILL SO CUTE!!! Love her!

[smoo70]

whoaa, she's still fit. Nice. Great feel good track too. thank you for posting popsikate.

[BRIAR85]

what a lady i just been taken back to my teenage years and aint she still looking and sounding awesome

[MartinRVUK]

now I remeber why I had crush on her when I was 12

[LordInksworth]

@MartinRVUK Ha ha - me too man. I loved this girl way back then, nose pressed up against the black and white telly screen. Sigh.

[mellizaparma]

oh my god,,,shes still cute

[iainb114]

she sure was a babe (still is) loved altered images...cant believe that was early 80's

[alecahauf]

There are certain but not many things that brighten you up when you are down and this is one of them

[alejandra1964]

No one is cuter than Clare Grogan. Love her!

[CrookdRiverWmn]

Love that dress! She's got a great outfit on in a clip from 2009. She still has great style. Makes me want to go shopping!

[murraytara]

I wish a comeback would happen, she still makes me swoom , im 44

[theclaret]

She's classy ..... as she always was.

[wildenfree]

Me too..looks like the comeback started last year though.

Im 45 but still 16 in my heart.

[sofakingvile]

Hell, I'm gay and I've got a crush on her.

[hanselkksc]

That's reasonable. Clare is above sexual preferences! ;)

[AMBASSODOR]

Sicko

[Rizzy69tiger]

Madonna today or Clare Grogan today??? Well, duh...Claire, obviously!!!!! She is so much more fresh and exburant...and dare i say it...irony of all irony...she is so much more youthful, without even trying...unlike madonna who is obsessed with trying to look young

[KDub1963]

I think we can all agree on this for sure! She's still cute, bouncy, and looks great!

Yeah Claire!!!

[FelchBelcher]

@Rizzy69tiger agreed - and what turns me off about Madonna is she's also obsessed with constantly trying to redefine and repackage herself.

[fatterelvis]

@Rizzy69tiger

totally agree the crush i had on clare omg later madonna but not now clare she still looks gorgeous

[GiggityGiggityGoo22]

Great song Claire.

[woofbear62]

She's still gorgeous and live Altered Images were/are great!!!

[Nirejhenge4]

She needs to stop thinking performing these classic pop songs is embarrassing. This is a fabulous fun performance! I hope she does some more soon.

[dermot51]

"This charming woman"

[johnwally]

she looks better now ,damn I don`t

[gunkittie]

i cant believe i just realized that shes the original kristine kochanski....friggin awesome

[Armsieee]

Still Fit

[TheGodParticle]

Top Notch MILF!!! me wants

[tpetani]

Well that is just the hottest scottish chick I have ever seen, right there that is

[angantyr86]

Hottest scotish milf...

[asplandg]

@angantyr86

Do adopted children count?

[angantyr86]

@asplandg I don't get it... i didn't even remember why i put that in first place, maybe i was high, my bad :)

[asplandg]

@angantyr86

From Wikipedia:

"In 2005, after six miscarriages and four failed IVF attempts, they adopted a daughter, Lucia."

So, not a mother as such.

[angantyr86]

@asplandg Oh... mother from the heart then :) but i didn't remeber why i put that in first place... mmmmmmmmmmm... but a year ago i was listening altered images, a greatest hits "i could be happy", it's pretty good and i, normally listen black metal and that shit. Anyways... take care.

[jaetguz]

@angantyr86

Hell fucking Yeah man!!!

[weekennywee]

@angantyr86 ... U bet m8 ;~)

[uncleavi2002]

@angantyr86 Mrs McMilfen

[123strauss]

Believe me mate , walk down Sauchiehall St any Sat , and be bowled over by hot Scots chicks ( lots of not so hot ones as well LOL )

[kelso102970]

She still looks pretty good, I remember wtching videos for Alterd Images on MV3!

[mackenzietartan]

Very sweet person. Met her once in London. Cool.

[avalyn5]

Met her when I worked at MTV nine years ago. I asked her to sign all my A.I. vinyl and she said I had more of it than she did.

[chesterarebest]

underated ...legend...

[faustbos]

lol, i still can't understand a word she says, but I love it

[badintentions2]

thats a poster child for sexual repression everyone even though you dont know it ;)

[Hakiblack]

Fuck me 2008? I remember the early eighties watching this magnifcent looking woman on tv and being desperatey in love. Well I had great taste, she'd still give a homo the horn.

[audiotrax2000]

Wow, she looks hot!  I like her better now.

[robin8967]

i love clare grogan. she's still got it.  absolutely fantastic and sexy

[badintentions2]

you can learn a lot from that 'advanced age' sunshine. dont ever consider a woman at her age who still has a passion for life anything more than a positive experience waiting to happen.

[Hoopskidoodle]

I was merely making a Red Dwarf reference. In reality, I have no interest in women who are even close to my age, let alone much older. The young stuff is where it's at, old top.

[badintentions2]

young stuff is good for conquest, but if you want true power over women you better find yourself a good teacher.

young ones sell it better but they can't teach you half as well.

[ferrers88]

rofl dedicated many a sensation to her when i was a boy1

[kurdt6794]

yep shes still got it

[mancandproud]

Soooo Sexy :OP

[21stCenturyLIVING]

i admire HER ARRRRRRRRRRRRRSSE

[oldphoque]

Claire looks so good today. I am impressed. Debby Harry looks like a truck ran over her. What a beautiful woman. What a beautiful voice.

[WhisperingGrass]

Brilliant! Debbie was the one though back then.

[WhisperingGrass]

that was a reply to oldphoque

[MrGorillaApe]

Debbie Harry is 64, Claire is 47. You're hardly comparing apples to apples there.

[21stCenturyLIVING]

sexy DRESS AND NYLONS

[sanchaaze1]

yep!... its official i still fancy the arse of her

[21stCenturyLIVING]

she got SEXY back

[TimmytheGeek2009]

she's a doll. even that scar on her cheek is cute.

[peterhammill]

Did she have an accident, as far as you know?

[TimmytheGeek2009]

I just remember in some of their videos and I think on the album cover of 'Bite', you can see a scar on her cheek. I could be mistaken.

[topchefycool]

thanx mate knew her years ago, for a short while, but .........there ya go still lovely and very glaswegian........x thanks

[wintervannicola]

I am so happy Altered Images are still performing ! I hope to see them in concert very soon !

[shackbhoy]

aaaahh - Clare Grogan , Gregorys Girl , Orange Juice , Charlie Nicholas , Summer 81 - 82 -83 -- too many great memories ......

[fibua68]

i fancied when i was 13 . am 41 now and still fancy her.

[oldphoque]

She may have been my first 2 d crush. her and Nastassia Kinski. What beautiful women.

[tonymontana1974]

She may be looking a bit older but id still smash her back doors in.

[Kenro199x]

That's pretty damn cool.

[RickeyRamone]

And she still does that New Wave dancing so well! We don't get close enough in this vid to really see how she looks now, but she certainly was supercute back in the 80's!

[drlovepants]

blimey! didn't think she'd sound as good after all these years. shows how wrong you can be, she's still as good as ever.

[SKEG1873]

youve still got it claire, dont ever change,

i still get that same thrill when i hear your voice,

GONNY GEEZ YER FONE NUMMER :D

[SuperbaFrango]

Please tell Clare I still love her!

And I DID see her eye me up at Cul De Sac one night!

[iLOVEtwilight1212]

[crapple009]

Don't/won't we all? At least the lucky ones!

[koos987654]

Brilliant answer!!

[crapple009]

Well thank-you,thank-you and thank-you! 'Twas a pleasure.Ageism really sucks.

[djspl51bw]

[moe17moe]

[strandhogg]

Ya I had a bigtime crush on her in high school as well. And I think I still do, shes hot. Thanxs for posting.

[bazalini]

Just realised why I love my Wife - She is the image of my Childhood crush - Clare Grogan

[jackal2071]

Lucky you!

[tofupuppy]

Ah, sweet! Thanks for posting this!! I was one of many with a childhood crush on Clare- I actually remember entering a contest in a magazine called Kicks to win some sort of 'date' with her (and I was a kid in suburban New Jersey!).

She's still lovely, the songs are still terrific, and I guess I still have a bit of a crush!

[caction66]

You still got it, Claire. I had a terrible crush on you in 1981-82. I think I still do :-)

[jackal2071]

You only think you do - I definitely still do!

[evertchris]

Looks like a fun concert, good atmòsphere. Compare with Madonna type pretentiousness.....

I remember Clare best in Eastenders when she and Ian were searching for Cindy in Italy, I think....great episodes

[annabellwells]

always thought she was the most beautiful and perfect popstar

[badintentions2]

aye she's always been a ball of energy.

you dont know if you want to fuck her or hug her to be honest....

[coolcelt]

Still smokin hot CG. What a sexy little thing she is...

[FaceInTheRain]

She still sounds like a 5 year old! Great clip. I had a big crush on her in the early 80s.

[jackal2071]

I still do along with Kim Wilde and Keren from Banarama!

[bjjhater]

she still soundsand looks good

[nouveauxdecadence]

FANTASTIC!!!

[ferrers88]

where was this?

[doesnthurt2try]

I squeezed her booty once... ha!

[glitzer]

[bucito96]

Genial Popsikate, have long around here (South America) does not know anything about it,

Thank you

The apology did not dominate the English grammar

[popsikate]

I didn't record that one sorry! All the videos I recorded that night are already up.

[tjbedista]

[IceP2006]

First time I clapped eyes on her was when she was in Red Dwarf.

Can't help but like her.

[desires4u2]

She is amazing beautiful back in the 80's. She still looks slim, and hot.

[BeeryUSA]

I've had a crush on Clare Grogan ever since I saw her in Gregory's Girl

[TANMYSHELL]

[wintervannicola]
