"I'm not talking" Michael Steele-House of Blues LA-2000 

right! impossible!

A bit of an overstatement.

@@OldMod67 Explain.

Not the same band without her. Something essential is missing.

Mikey.

@@RedArrow73 Under the name Micki Steele, she was a founding member of the Runaways but left in 1975. I mean Susan Nancy Thomas.

Sam Bradley Live they always sounded like that. In the albums the producers and sound engineers killed their sound.

Lol

So true. In one interview, the interviewer asked the Bangles who was the most difficult to get along with, or who had the worst temper. Michael raised her hand and said that she thinks that she was the real b.... of the four. It takes a woman with great sense of humour and willing to not take herself so seriously to say something like that. I miss her terribly. And full disclosure, I'm a Susanna fan.

George Harrison???

@@axel-uc3ps Personality wise. A lot of people say that about her. They make these comparisons: Michael=George, Vicki=John, Susanna=Paul, Debbi=Ringo. Get it?

I think it´s because of their personalities or position in the band. If we talk about the instruments Michael is Paul, Susanna is John and Vicky is George

@@TikaPants ohhh,😱

@@TikaPants you dare to compare m'y.divine Debby With this poor.half Beatles Ringo ???😂

Susan Fleming the song is by the yardbirds this is a cover.

They do it better than the Yardbirds did!

@@coryskiseng9954 Actually, written by MOSE ALLISON from TIPPO, MISSISSIPPI.

city zen yes you are correct

She was for real about that.

Written by the late Mose Allison. Got to see him in Cambridge, MA in the late '80s. He had a unique style.

@Mark Teague watch her fingers here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FY3Ncc6dFJo.html

@Mark Teague they weren’t as talented as the GoGos. The Bangles relied on other artists to write their music.

@@mickfunny4185 Well yeah! I don't know what I was thinking. LOL That performance isn't anything particularly special now that I re-listen to it. Was just surprised by the raw driving guitar being so different from their top 40 hits, I guess.

@@mickfunny4185 No, they didn't rely, they just collaborated with known song hit makers. You just need to listen to their older material when they weren't famous yet. It's just that their own song writing weren't as popular as the one written by established song writers. Does not take away their talent and legitimacy as artists.

Would have fought to be at the head of the line!🤪

Me too

Would more females apply than males is the real question isn't it.

Yosemite Sam she sings like her.

Yosemite Sam I don't think so. It seems to me more a mixture of all her influences: Joni Mitchell, Sandy Denny... She has a folk style that I love.

Yes, i wish that it had been

They probably would have had to pay too much $$$$ to the song's copyright holder to include it on a Bangles product. Performing a song in a concert is one thing, including it on a CD or DVD is another.

@@jjlloyd8017 It wasn't a literal question......I know the answer. I was a plea and a wish not an actual question but thanks for informing people who didn't know ;-)

@@kramor3k Ah! Got ya. Yeah... I wish it could have been on the DVD too.

Bravo paul, you have hit the nail on the head. Everyone has flocked around Sue to much. You listen to sue by her self with no back up and that voice is weak and it can't carry the tune. OK now listen to Micheal by herself (Crash Wisdom, or the sandy denny tribute) and Micheal kicks A$$. Ger voice is strong, lyrical a pleasure to listen too

I like Michael then Bangles Drummer. Susanna is very overrated

'I'm not talking' was not included on the dvd, this video is from the concert version that was on air a few days after the show.

Michael Steele FanChannel aha thank you very much😊

Sounds more like the blues to me.

It's an old Yardbirds song, I believe

Punk, from The bangles, would manifest as, "Angels Don't fall in Love".

I wonder how many glasses of wine they had before this show? Lol. That was pretty brave of Michael to say up there. Not her usual introvert self. Haha. I think it's hilarious and also awesome!! Go Michael!!! 💜

I wonder if it has been applied any... (and Susanna just laughs) LOL

Joy K, If nobody did they are STUPID and COWARDS!!! Lol. If I was a male at that show I would be first in the line! Hahaha.

@Chelle Dizzle Hahahaha Micki could be a little *naughty at times😁😁😁....as when they talked about groupies on Late Night (min. 5:30 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Tst4WFxi1lY.html ) *Espero estar usando la palabra correcta, quiero decir "pícara" o "traviesa".

¡Sí, estás en lo correcto! :)

+@Thatmaninrio This is a Micki fan page. What they seek is to highlight (and keep present) the work of Michael, with The Bangles or outside of them. Especially since the Bangles don't give any credit for her contribution to the band and they give her treatment of "one of the many bass players who have passed through the revolving door". Even this song is not included in the DVD, because they didn't try to get the copyright, it was easier to leave it out. And we're watching this video just because they (The Steele's Legacy Keepers 😉) rescued it and upload.

@Mariana Well, first, I didn't say that anyone was more important than anyone. Second, there have been more bassists in the band (Derrick Anderson, Amanda Podany, Cathy Valentine ...). And it was Susanna who said that the bass players came and went through the revolving door, when specifically asked by Michael. And they constantly being questioned about Micki, they respond: "we are the founders, we started this" ... They put her on the same level as all of them who have only played bass. And they obviate any other contribution of Michael to the band (songwriter, lead vocalist, harmonies, guitarist ...). I don't say that they hate her or anything, but they have been neglected in their statements. Certainly, they have not wanted to replace her (as Susanna said), which speaks of a certain respect and affection, but it's also true that constantly seek to highlight themselves as founders (and now Annette as their "original bass player") as trying to remind fans that Micki doesn't.

Mariana At what point did I say that they ARE NOT the founders? At what point did I say that Annette is not the original bass player? At what point did I say that they can not replace Micki? What are you talking about? what is your point? You were the one who brought up the other bass players. I just said that they treated her like one more on the list. I never said that Annette or another was more important, but to Micki they lower it to the level of others, when her contribution was for far greater. And yes, having Annette is a strategy, but a way to sell tickets, but to stop them from stop asking for "the fourth Bangle". Annette has been playing with them eventually since Micki left (15 years ago), not now. To the simple question of, "where is Michael?" They responds, "she retired, but we are the founders". As if the question was, "who founded the band?". (¿¿¿????)

Mariana Ok. But, as you interpret that to a simple question about Michael they respond "well, we have had many bassists in our history" or "the bass players are a thing of entering and leaving through the revolving door". When could they easily say "she retired and has another kind of life"? and in fact at first they did it, but their discourse has been changing in recent years. That's why I said that they have been "neglected" in their handling with the press and the fans. They have never known to handle the issue of Steele's departure.

@Joy K It's called PR. Their emphasis on the fact that they are the founders is rooted in them wanting to assure fans that The Bangles that they love are still around. If they just talked about how much they miss Michael, at a certain point it would come off as them reflecting on how their best days are behind them. FTR, I definitely think that without Michael they are missing that "X factor", although they're still great. And I'm sorry, but this notion that they don't give her contributions any credit or only think of her as just one of the bassists they've had is ludicrous. Some passing comment in an interview doesn't change the fact that after Michael left in 2004, they did not have a permanent bassist until 2018 when Annette came back. That's 14 years. They also regularly commemorate her birthday on their Facebook page, which they haven't done for Derrick Anderson or Abby Travis. That shows that they consider her to be a much more important and integral member of the band. Finally, listen to their commentary here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nI9Lpi3x2lA.html. It's obvious that they deeply miss Michael. They're silent throughout much of the footage and when they do talk, they say comments like how they miss the interplay they were able to achieve with her. Just because Susanna made some random comment in an interview or because they say that they're the founders does not mean that they don't consider Michael as an extremely important member of the band. They obviously have a lot of respect and admiration for her and give her a ton of credit.

Esta versión, tal como la oigo: I'm not talking. That's what I've got to say. I know where you're going. I know what you're doing I know where you're going Bringing me to ruin That's one thing I can do without I'm not talking And that's what I've got to say Things do seem to be Screwing me up completely. I know you've been lying. Doing it so discreetly. Now don't call me baby I'll call you I'm not talking. And that's what I've got to say I know where you're going I know what you're doing I know where you're going Bringing me to ruin That's one thing I can do without. I'm not talking And all eligible males, apply after the show Just kidding That's one thing I can do without

At about 1:33 1:34 it sounds so, but who knows. Unfortunate.

Something went wrong. You can she her call the tech out after the song is over and changes guitars.

Sue plays a Rick 350 through a Deluxe Reverb, Vicki a Les Paul through a 50 watt Marshall combo. Sound guy problem I believe.....levels off. OTOH, maybe Sue's Rick had a cold. Vicki is hot as a pistol.

Sure looks that way though i have many versions of this song on various bootlegs and you can't hear susanna's guitar on any of them.

Ben Dover if you observe closely you will see that a string broke. On the other hand I believe that the guitar is only low in the mix, not in the actual concert.

+Alteredbeast47 It was not included on the dvd, this video is from the concert version that was on air a few days after the show.

Awesome thanks.

They do it better than the Yardbirds! Micki is just the best!

It's not on the dvd and no bangles fan can understand it! Michael left in 2005 and the dvd came out in 2007. so, maybe (MAYBE) somewere there is the reason........

@@ullischuster1263 I think it might of has to do with copyright reasons. The song that is.

Kind of serious.. :)

Micki was 45 in this video. I agree, she is well past her prime looks wise. She never had a kid, she could have been in better shape I guess. In 1980, she was the bomb. Still looked great when she joined the Bangles.

@@davidmathewson1088 The only "jokes" here are the two of you

Ya está. No es suyo, es de los Yarbirds.
