More Divinyls please. The lead singer, Chrissy Amphlett, was the raunchy rebel whereas her cousin Patricia Amphlett, aka. 'Little Pattie', also a singer, was the sugary- sweet one. 'Touch Myself,' by the band, sends Americans into a spin !
I'm definitely gonna check that one out! Lots of you have mentioned it. Will have to look into Patricia as well. Thanks for watching, love and blessings ❤️
Gone but never forgotten. She was just incredible (and the band was pure class, like your reactions 💜). I'm guessing others will have told you there's a celebrated laneway here in Melbourne city named Amphlett Lane in her honour.
RIP Chrissy Amphlet, you were the bomb girl ❤ Chrissy died from complications from the same disease I have (MS) (she got breast cancer, but you can't have chemo with the infusion we have). She was only 53, and a great loss to our music industry 😢
So sad. She had such a fiercely beautiful attitude. I'm excited to hear more of their music. Hope that you are doing well. Thank you for all the support 🙏🏻❤️
This is my favourite song of theirs. I do like Science Fiction, cool song. Pleasure and pain was another hit for them, but their biggest hit would be I touch myself. Ain't gonna eat out my heart is a cool song. It's was in Buffy the vampire slayer movie. They just had a great sound and Chrissy was fantastic as front woman. The Baby Animals are another great band that has a strong female front woman. One word, Ain't goona get and Stoopid. Freakin dig those songs. Cheers ✌️👍🇦🇺
Ahhhh Chrissy , every Aussie lad 15-20 had the hots for Chrissy she was smokin. She had the attitude, style and and what a great singer . The Divinyls have a huge catalogue to dive into mate , Thanx VK you made my day with this 😊 Try - I touch myself 😮
So glad to see you doing The Divinyls. I had been thinking you’d like them. She’s a really great vocalist…this song doesn’t show her full scope. I don’t think there’s many rock singers that can slip some yodelling in with the grit…not even kidding. Can recommend “Science Fiction” and a live version of “I’ll Make You Happy”
Chrissy had the best attitude and the best lip pout in the business! In this clip she is wearing her then trade mark school girl uniform with stockings and suspenders..... Chrissy said and did the things that 'nice' girls wouldn't. But what people fail to recognize is that she was also a great actress. In almost every song she reinvented a new character. She even performed on stage in the musical Boy From Oz as Judy Garland, along side Hugh Jackman.
Ahhh yes, there is a distinction there between them lol. I always wondered why the USA removed the u. Probably the same reason we don't use meters and kilometers like everyone else. People from the USA just wandering around all confused everywhere else 😂😂😂
FYI. The Australian education system in the 1970s tried to bring in the American spelling 'or' to replace 'our'. I remember the spelling lists changing and teaching that to Grade 3 & 4s but it never took off with the general public. This why the Labour party changed its spelling to LabOR party.
