  • fuck off Evanescense and Nightwish!

  • Sometimes I wonder if the "old days" are made bigger, better and grander by my mind ....... hell the fuck no WENDY O WILLIAMS WAS THE FUCKING BOMB! LITERALLY!

    That bitch was balls to the wall insane!

  • what kind of asshole compares wendy to gaga....WTF!!! get a clue jerk-off

  • If you feel like Plasmatics weren't your cup of tea on your side of the pond, why don't you check out New York Dolls or Talking Heads, who were active just about the same time.

  • @justinbgaga

    I appreciate her! I was in my tweens when I first saw her on tv. She was like watching an explosion and womens movement all in one.

  • @sigsigsputnik88 And, you would have appreciated her even more had you ever had a chance to meet her. She was a "nastiest' and not so "friendly" lady, and she managed to aleviate any signs of friendship from the members of her band (except one.)

    However, when she was at her best and most feminine, there was no other woman that could compare to her.

  • I very much appreciate al the kind words you leave for her.

    Tell the same thing to Chosey Funahara and Rod.

    She was no "Lady Gaga!" She was like nobody else I've ever met in my life. She was totally her own person and that included the friends. Nasty, yet adorable most of the time. Off putting almost all the time, but you couldn't have wished to have a better friend than her. Just a so called "complicated" human being of whom there are very few left.

  • True,but I dont think they influenced anyone this side of the pond,and Wendy and the runaways predate GS a bit.

    I could be wrong .Saw them live btw.Got to meet them.Never met any runaway except Joanie.

    Why is it all the great girl bands have lost a member tragically...*sighs*

  • wendy was a godess and a PIONEER .The only reason stuff like madonna or lady gaga exist,is because women like wendy and the runaways paved the way .

    Ive seen the Plassies,and i met them many times.The loss of wendy,was huge. huge..

  • @chaffedthighs Don't forget Girlschool.

  • Went to see these in London circa 1980,I think it was at the Rainbow Theatre, but those killjoys the G.L.C. banned the gig at the very last minute!

  • go wendy *)

    thanks for the ride

  • go wendy *)

  • Esta mujer no tiene nada que ver con lady gaga,Wendy creo un estilo,no musical quizas,pero a la hora desubir al escenario creo escuela,de hecho tiene chicas que han imitado o "copiado" parte de su estilo;lady gaga no es mas que un producto del marketing,o sea,una muñeca de trapo al lado de ella,y musicalmente es una bazofia,recordemos a Wendy como lo que era,una mujer que hacia su musica y si te gustaba bien y si no mira pa otro lado

  • Wendy O parallels Grace Jones much better lady Gaga is just that- Gaga

  • Lady Gag me----Wendy would have kicked her ass. I saw Wendy at home in Boston at the Paradise theater- She hit the guy in the front row in the head with the mic stand when she threw it.split his head-wide open--never sit in the front when Wendy played---she was great-RIP.

  • You know, this is where Bowsers kid got her name from. Wendy O Koopa that is.

  • boobs and things blowing up

    big whoop

  • Gen Y asks all the stupid questions on youtube its okay, you are all winners.

  • CBGBs at bar when car blew up gave us all knock down force vibes and we were not in pit, FAR OUT! Outlawed within days in NYC! Great act from days way forgone!

  • My kind of lady ...

  • I correct some of my postings. Wendy O was one of the brightest stars in european punk scene, although Plasmatics were an american band. Lady Gaga probably tries to copy her in a way. Also don't forget Nina Hagen. And Seattle is a birthplace of grunge to me.

  • @Jyrki1964

    Ramones had it too... 

  • dont we love Wendy....

  • wendy o is epic. lady gaga is a poor excuse for a dale bozio rip-off. i was blessed to get to see plasmatics perform live various times in hollywood.

  • Thats one hardcore bitch!

  • R.I.P Wendy O'Williams

  • any chick singing punk with her tits hanging out is A.O.K in my book.

  • I bet she was a monster in the sack

  • holy shit. ive just seen the best band ever.

  • Wendy was great! My first concert seeing them she tore up a car opening up for Queen when I was stationed in Germany.

  • Potentissima !!!

  • Lady gaga is a follower and her fans are brain dead cunts who dont know behond shiot llol i bet iff gaga was sining same time as suoxsie and the banshees heart and wendy shed be stuk and gagas lyrics are so dumb and all the cock suckers love her but shhes doing stuff thats been done before all go gaga gaga is shit end of

  • Wendy O' Williams was a hard core bad ass!

  • PUNK

  • Beautiful tits,great voice,the best of singer.

  • BBBBBBBOOOOOOOM!!!!

    ドカーーーン!!!凄いね、笑っちゃうね。

  • wish I was there :-O ....

  • Personal life

    Williams in her personal life was deeply devoted to the welfare of animals, a passion that included a vegetarian diet, working as a wildlife rehabilitator and being a natural foods activist.

    Suicide...

    Williams had first attempted suicide in 1993 by hammering a knife into her chest; the knife lodged in her sternum and she changed her mind.

    Williams died at age 48 on April 6, 1998, of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in a wooded area near her home.

    Nuts? Yes.. Hate a (R) till udie

  • Wendy O Williams and Lady Gaga definitely have something in common.

    They both hated by the Republican conservatives :P

  • I'll tell you why npeople are bringing up Lady Gaga (gag gag): it's because Wendy was, still is, the blueprint. Indeed, her stage antics, Punk/metal ethos remains unchallenged and infallible: she's as real as Lemmy, as Kurt. Lady Gag Gag, as I call her, had appropriated so many artists that not to compare her to her salient histrionics and fakery makes people pissed off that Williams gets blurry footage and a wretched footnote in Punk/musical history. She is pure opium to the soul. Gaga is crack

  • I always wanted to stcik it to WEDY O.

  • Eres un clásico Wendy...¡¡

  • Quelle femme ! je t'aaaaaime !!

  • LADY GAGA CAPITALIZED ON STUPID AMERICAN MUSIC MARKETING

  • Not my kind of music, but it's more bearable than her talk show - she's black now. And that bikini is so small and she was sweating so much that I bet the people in the front row could smell her cooter by the end of the show. That alone would be worth the price of admission.

  • Any relation to Rozz Williams?

  • Chainsawing electric Guitars! lighting cars on fire! Explosions on stage! Driving a bus into a pyramid of television sets! Getting assaulted by the police, arested for public indecency, pyrotechnics without a license... I think she forced someone to give her cunnilingus at gun point, well okay that didn't happen. lol But hot damn She was the Greatest Punk Rocker who Ever Lived Period!

  • She looked like a female version of Wez from The Road Warrior, except much hotter.

  • Please do not compare Wendy O. to Lady GaGa.

    Wendy's roots were in Punk Rock which is anti-pop music and ant- fame.

    Punk Rock was shortlived, but broke down barriers.

    Lady GaGa is all about pop music and being famous and trying to stay popular, in fact that is what she studied in college.

    Wendy O. is not appreciated for the doors she knocked in the music world, and was ahead of her time.

  • Comment removed

  • Man, she's fucking hot!

  • I am 38 years old and have never heard of her for some reason, where was I when all of this was going on?

  • Yes, she's a visionary genius...

    She preforms 99,99999% of the world to hell and back.

    But she sings really bad. I cannot listen to this to save my life. It's that bad...

  • Yeah well, at least Lady Gaga can make decent songs.

  • how thw fuck lady gaga get even close to be compared to wendy hahahahah

  • wtf are you talking about, up there??? why would somebody think about gaga while watching this vid, are you crazy, ppl???

  • mindblowingstuff

  • Saw this show in the late seventies at the Argon brawl room..........................­....I list this In my top ten concerts,i was third row left side and you freaking fell back with a shot of heat flashing in your face when Wendy W blew up the car.RIP.......................­.................

  • GOODESS

  • THERES TITTYS ON YOUTUBE!!!!!!

  • Wendy O.Williams the legend.Legends never die!!!

  • god i miss wendy williams sooo hard dude.

  • um lol? her suit shows her tits... i like

  • yo retards wendy o williams was a rock star. gaga is a popstar. other them being in the music industry, being women, and wearing skimpy clothes on stage they have nothing in common. they cannot be compared.

  • She Committed suicide

  • Pink stole her look from Wendy O.

    Pity she didn't steal anything else worthwhile.

  • I saw her playing live in Milan, Italy in 1985...I wasn't into her kinda music but actually was a huge show.

  • She's a fucking legend! Everything about her... I love. RIP!

  • hello

  • what a super rock star chick man , she was like the janis joplin of punk and heavy metal . what a fucken goddess

  • Loved /love her!! SHE IS THE BOMB. Chick had a big brassy set! TRULY INSANE AMAZING!!!

  • How the hell did she do it. NO woman was doing anything like this in the 80's. Where'd she get the courage?

  • What the hell does Wendy O. and Lady Gaga have to do with eachother?? Why is Gaga even brought up here? It's like comparing Smokey Robinson to Kurt Cobain: two completely different kind of musicians, two different target audiences. 

  • @Xozona yet all 4 fucking great! More like a phenom within their OWN reahlm

  • @Xozona loooooooooooooooooooooolllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lllllllllllllllooooooooooooooo­oooooollllllllllllllllllllllll­looooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­olllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lloooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo that was good shit lolololololololololoollopl;;l'­slfkdfkapfkA

  • @Xozona "What the hell does Wendy O. and Lady Gaga have to do with eachother??"

    Isn't that obvious? Both are pretty lousy musicians, but sell their junk because of the image and spectacle.

  • @Xozona

    Wendy O was one of the brigtests stars of european punk scene'

  • Vastaa tähän videoon... 

    Gaga is a copy. She is a copy of another great singer and an actress of 80's. Nina Hagen

  • Vastaa tähän videoon...

    Seattle has now a priviledge to say that grunge were born here.

    50 years before ....

  • WOW was a primordial female goddess! She died like she lived; with power and drive. unbelievable. One of a kind, like a warrior who couldn't be tamed.

  • Wendy was from a suburb of where I live. She said she never felt like she fit in there. After she retired from music, she worked for a time with animals, maybe in the shelter, or she had a farm or something. Anyway, she died. She was like a roman candle, and burned out too early. She was really something, wasn't she? :)

  • @QueenOfTheForest1 Yeah, what a blaze! R.I.P. you crazy diamond!

  • Rest in peace wendy! we need more women like you.

  • She INVENTED KICK ASS

  • awful

  • Nice bit of theater ... but that's all ... Lydon must have laughed.

  • I can see where Lady gaga got a lot of her stage performance ideas, from this Lady!!!!!! Cleaning up that stage must of been a bitch lol

  • Now that was a hot chick.

  • This is nuts but isn't this what rock is all about? Great band and a great singer.

  • Wendy was a lengend, fuck lady gaga

    

  • fuck lady gaga

  • @rogerioamsterdam

    OK whats her #

  • Lady Gaga is a Peice of Shit ! Whore ! !

  • Fucking awesome.

  • GG Allin in a women version, I love it

  • Holy fucking Jesus what a wild woman!

    

  • she's an Artist.

  • Depressing to see how much people are sucking up to Lady Gaga here.

  • Excellent clip, but man, next time lower the volume. This is nothing but clipping.

  • I wish she had loved herself as much as she loved animals of the world. RIP! :(

  • Is it possible that Wendy was the sexiest woman to ever live?

  • Why did she kill herself she was awesome!?

  • damn, Wendy O Wiliams is f*cking hot.

  • her on the bus with her hawk yummmmmmm

  • this is rock punk¡¡ not like that stupid shit miley cirus , demi lovatto , or hayley williams that think they are rocker chiks , when they are all wannabes and fakes

  • I read about her in a Maxim and looked her up. Wow, can't imagine the likes of Gaga, Beyonce, Shirley Manson or even MARILYN MANSON doing stuff like this, though, I can imagine Wendy was an influence on Marilyn. The only difference is I'd rather have sex with her than Marilyn. To bad she went the way of Kurt Kobain. She looks hot. Nice rack on her.

  • Does anybody know where she was from?

  • I can see how Motley Crue were influenced by the Plasmatics.

  • lady gagag is a pile of smiley shit wendy was and is still the best! no one can compare to her shows

  • "You Will SHIT When You See The Plasmatics!" LOL best slogan ever

  • shes tottally hotter than lady gaga

  • I'm not an obsessed punk fan but I remember hearing about Wendy Williams and how she went over the top on her shows but that's pretty cool. Just means her shows were not boring. = ) I think she rocks.

  • I saw her Live...

  • Wendy. Damn, never be another like her.

  • OMG she blew up a police car!

  • @DURound

    Blow it out your ass old man. Do you leave comments like this on every punk rock and metal video, or do you just hate Wendy?

  • @Asarelah Uhmmm.. one key difference between us is that I actually met her ... at a time when you were probably still getting your butt wiped. She was an extremely unhappy person.

    Silly.

  • @Asarelah Old man ? He is obviously the same gen as Wendy O. What are you doing on an "old persons" video ?

  • When Lady Gaga took approximately 10-11 tries to break a car windshield on TV, I was embarrassed on Wendy's behalf!

  • @demasque Gaga is a joke compared to this.

  • seen them twice in cherry hill new jersey emrald city- once i sen them ? you do not for get her blowing uo a sport's car on stage ! 1979 ? or so ! the one guy cut his head with guitar! GOD Bless Her !

  • @loverofthebigt9 i was at the emarled city show with a bunch of friends excellent

  • seen them twice in cherry hill new jersey emrald city- once i sen them ? you do not for get her blowing uo a sport's car on stage ! 1979 ? or so ! the one guy cut his head with guitar! GOD Bless Her !

  • i saw the plasmatics at Bonds on time square, they were the greatest punk band ever, they had an angry message to deliver, they were not built to last but they didn't care

  • God , I miss those days.

  • Her boobs are SO nice!

  • I love her!

  • wasn't there a movie in the making based on Wendy O. Williams? what ever happened to it? i'd really like to see that.

  • What a great band that was!! Played their albums a zillion times! Love it!!

  • wendy and gg allin would make a good video together,

  • gg allin doesnt have enough of a brain to be in her presence. not that i dont like him, but hes too much of a misogynist and i bet wendy would kick the shit out of him

  • @ParniValjak25 she would kick your ass...grow up jerk!!!

  • Now I see, how hard Pink is ripping off of Wendy...

  • @mustaine75

    I don't think Pink is ripping Wendy off in any way. I DO think, however, that Pink is genuinely influenced by Wendy.

    Although, I've never been a fan of Pink, that girl is real. No fake shit there.

  • 2:04 Soooooo hot : )

    There can only be one Wendy O. RIP

  • i was 14 when i first saw the SEX JUNKIE album cover in record stores..shes the first chick that both turned me on and scared the shit out of me at the same time LOL. she'ld shove Pink in a meat grinder head first LMAO  wendy O..ya left us too soon.

  • we saw the plasmatics open for KISS at the Corpus Christi Coliseum in 1982 or 83

  • Fuck yah !!!!!!!

  • She was ferocious, did killer shows....and loved every minute of it!

  • thank god i was old enough te be around when plasmatics dropped this bomb. just wish she would resurrect to blast the shit out of plastic girls like gaga and the sort

  • This is what I call a show! Great performance, I just wish I was around this era to see her and many other riot grrrl bands live!

  • Nice tits - Lady GaGa is a fucking Puritan compared to this.

  • Lady GaGa is nothing compared to this.

  • @eldospinks absolutely agree

  • @eldospinks Lady Gaga is nothing, period.

  • fuckin true my man, singing chicks these days just suck...

  • @stratman06 dude lady gaga would be fuckin lickin wendy's boots

  • @gunslinger861 Heh heh, and anything else Wendy told her to do!

  • @stratman06 she said she is lol

  • Great comp, thanks for sharing.

  • This woman was a force to reckoned. All these Madonna fans who claim she's so groundbreaking, original, provocative, pushed buttons, etc...sorry, but Wendy did it all before!

  • @ChavKe

    I'm a big fan of Madonna, but I'm also an even bigger fan of punk rock. And what most people don't know is that Madonna is a big punk fan. She took her love of pop music and combined it with her punk rock attitude and succeeded in making both of those things more ACCESSIBLE.

    She's groundbreaking because she made self-expression accessible, thus popular. She never claimed to be the FIRST to ever do it.

    But I do wish, oh so badly, that Wendy would get her credit that is much overdue.

  • @madeyes4u

    Which is why I directed my comment to Madonna's fans. I have no problem with Madonna herself, but more so of her fans, many who seem to be unknowledgeable about music history (not saying you are). I don't know how many times I've heard from them, "oh, but she's the first to do this..she's the first to do that," when in fact, the majority of those claims can be disputed. Yes, Madonna was groundbreaking, but so was Wendy, Siouxsie Sioux, Patti Smith, Kate Bush, The Slits, etc.

  • you are correct sulat she set every fucking standard for women in metal and punk. Nobody has been like her or was like her or will ever be like her. She was the craziest bitch metal ever had, and I mean that as a term of endearment, and I would have licked the sweat off her hard body anytime. She was a bit muscular but so goddamn sexy at the same time. Yes cladio Wendy is no longer with us, she committed suicide a number of years ago, depression got the best of her.RIP Wendy

  • whats the last song called? :)

    <3 r.i.p wendy!!<3

  • "Rock N' Roll" is the name of the song, I believe

  • shes fucking HOT RIP

  • I saw her and the Plasmatics in 1981 [Arnhem, Stokvishal- still got the ticket!], i was 15 and was deaf for 3 days after that show!

    Wendy was a very intelligent woman, and didn't compromise; i respect her SOOO much!

    She never got the succes and credits she deserved.

  • I saw them live one time in Detroit USA, around 1980-81. I was about 20 ft from the stage (it was a small club), and they were much too loud, dangerously loud!! The kind of loud where distinguishing songs was impossible, and you felt like you were floating off the ground!!  I couldn't hear right for about a week!! Other than that, it was a great show, the most wild I was ever at!!

  • When I was twelve I wanted to give Wendy O my virginity!

  • Saw Wendy O at CBGBS/NYC She cut an electric guitar in half with a chainsaw. I was too close to the speakers and couldn't hear well for three days.

  • Yeah, I saw them once in Detroit, and I probably lost some hearing at that show!! I should have moved back (when I heard how loud they were), but I stayed pretty close to the stage. I can still feel my ears ringing almost 30 years later!!

  • Wendy O was so fukin HOT!!

  • wish she return from grave just ONE DAY to make the best concert ever, and see her headbanging at least one more time and for first time in front of my eyes.

  • Wendy not dead!

  • I saw Wendy at a small venue in Long Beach Ca. Fender's Ballroom. Some great shows went down there. The things is... I remember that show like I saw it a week ago, and it has been 25 years or more since. Only one Wendy.

  • Wendy O'Williams, from what I can see/tell, was COMPLETELY original. She was influenced by NO ONE. Dale Bozzio borrowed from her [perhaps], and we KNOW Lady Gag-me RIPPED OFF from both of them!

  • first female vocal that i love.

  • The Plasmatics were the best & they didn't have to label themselves punk, metal, anything. They were all that & then some. Also, Wendy O. was one hot mama. Total scorchcake.

  • we need more singers like wendy o williams, she makes marilyn manson look like emo phillips
