Shocking Blue - Venus (Video) 

Who is here in June 2024 ?.….. I'll wait 😅

can't believe they named a planet after this song.

Timeless classic. We way into the year 2024 are digging on this.

The Queen's Gambit brought me here. Great show, with the lead character dancing to this incredible song. I'm 74, and this brings back great memories.

Im leaving my comment here so when someone likes it, I can listen to this masterpiece again.

Fun fact: song released in 1969, Beth danced to this song in 1968...

WOW! I'm 65, loved this tune as a kid, still do. Never realized a woman was the lead singer of the band!! ❤

Timeless, I came here to wake up with this particular song May of 2024 🎶🎵

Does anyone agree that this original version is simply THE BEST?!? 🎶😊🎶

Her hair, the makeup, the clothes- What a classic/iconic 60s-early 70s beauty singing a song that stood the test of time. Brings me back to a simpler time in my life that I miss so much...

The very first Dutch band with a #1 hit in the USA 😎

It was 1966, i was 12 ,& this the first peice of rock & roll music i learned on guitar. nice,good memories of past & i can still play it today on my guitar so good to feel the string of music never die somehow. Thank God and goodness.

Still sounds fantastic. 52 years later.

I have no idea what the queen's gambit is, but I'm glad you guys are enjoying the song, it's a classic.

Recién hoy (2024) encuentro esta canción que mi madre (quien ya no vive) escuchaba y bailaba cuando era apenas un niñito ! Maravillosa imagen y recuerdo

The musicianship, creativity, soulfulness, and genuine passion during this era was just amazing .

Most people are from Queen's Gambit while I'm here because my 85 years old grandma wanted a throwback

Everyone: Queens gambit Me: Venus shaving razors

Ich habe Venus 1969 über mein Kofferradio zum ersten mal gehört und nie wieder vergessen. Es ist eine Musik für die Ewigkeit. Eine klasse Sängerin und eine tolle Band. Meine Hochachtung.

Всегда веет теплом из далёкой юности .Все просто ,а трогает за душу .

CLASSIC!

The Queen's Gambit brought me here.

I heard this song today at SHOPRITE. I was talking to a 40 year old guy stocking the shelfs. He had never heard the song before but was grooving on it. I told him I was about 13 years old when the song came out. He wouldn’t be born for another 12 years. Excellent song that brings back memories. Dave

Ahhh...the dark eyeliner & the pale colored lipstick. This came out when I first started to wear makeup. The haunting sound and the mysterious Venus are music unmatched in today's era. Shocking Blue...still Shockingly good. Unlike us, this song hasn't aged a day! Groovy ✌🏼💯

This song was a hit on the radio during my senior year in high school. That was 53 years ago. It still rocks today.

This song: exists Queen's gambit fans: it's free real estate

Музыкальный шедевр нашей прошлой жизни, слушая просто ухожу в какой-то блаженный транс и навевают самые приятные воспоминания...Спасибо!

Her voice is legendary. The band members are iconic.

" A goddess on a mountain top Was burning like a silver flame The summit of beauty and love And Venus was her name She's got it Yeah, baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire Her weapons were her crystal eyes Making every man mad Black as the dark night she was Got what no one else had, whoa! She's got it Yeah, baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire She's got it Yeah, baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire Well, I'm your Venus I'm your fire, at your desire. "

This song hit #1 in February 1970, was Gold in January. ❤🎉 The original song is called The Banjo song, Mama Cass was part of the trio.

Apparently this was the most popular song on the radio when i was born.

Песня на все времена,она не стареет.Мне 58 лет слезы наворачиваются как хочется вернутся в юность,где живы папа и мама и юность моя беззаботная, всем добра и мира

Песня нашей молодости и юности! На всех танцплощадках страны! Незабываемая и всегда юная песня! Помним, любим и до сих пор поем и танцуем под неё! Мне 64 года! Ровесники, привет! Я вас всех люблю! Будьте всегда молоды душой!🥰🌸✌️💕🙋‍♀️

An extremely well-crafted pop song

I fell in love with Mariska when I was young in Durango, greetings from Mexico

Venus 2024 😂😂❤❤❤

Awesome classic

That's how easy music is, no fireworks, dance troupe, acrobatics or effects, just good music.

She was amazing Iconic her voice is legendary and she looks like Venus

Its profound to see how many originals dont get any credit. I've heard this on and off the radio and in TV commercials for years and just now found this original which rocks! I'm so glad I got to see jt

Everyone: The Queen's Gambit Me: RU-vid algorithm

Am I the only one who knew this song before Netflix?

I was there, I lived it!!! How blessed am I!

Yeah ! I'm leaving in Reunion Island. I was born in 1956 and I remembered all this songs. Thanks a lot !

Venus is definitely one of the best rock songs to come out of the 1960's. 👍👍👍

The song is beyond time and space. We were crazy about her as boys of the late 60s and early 70s in the USSR, but judging by the comments, it has not died in our time! I, an old man, am glad of this!

55 лет песне... Никогда не надоест! Пусть я и не застал СССР.😊

Such hit!👌👏👏👏 If it sounds so powerful now, I can’t imagine when it came out, during the sixties?

Old timey people were much more uncomfortable in front of the camera and I like it.

На дворе март 2021 года,тусим под "Шизгару"..Ностальгия!!!!!Девушка была огонь конечно как и композиция ,бессмертный шлягер.....Светлая память Маришке.

Absolutely timeless masterpiece. If song AND video were released (as is) today in 2024 it would STILL be a huge hit. Great is great - across all eras.

Una época que no fue la mía sin embargo la empecé a escuchar muy pequeño gracias a mí Padre, ahora tengo 40 años y estoy cada vez más enamorado de esta canción y de esta música. Viva la música!

Песня на "Все времена!!!". Спасибо, ребят, что Вы - были в этой жизни.

Люди именно ПЕЛИ, а не изображали пение. БРАВО

Heard this version for the first time after seeing The Holdovers in theaters; now I can’t stop listening to it.

Спасибо тебе Тыч-Ин за добрые но грустные воспоминания юности

Once upon a time, artists produced quality songs both lyrically and musically. It was a delight to the ears of any music lover. You could listen to it endlessly. " Venus...." released in 1969 and still popular in 2023...! The sixties, seventies, eighties... great times or in other words... heydays for rock music...! Big contrast to the current music experience...! And let's be honest, what a beautiful lead singer or " Maria Elizabeth ENDER " better known as " Mariska VERES " at her best...! Sadly you left us far too soon sweetheart, but you will always be in my thoughts. Beautiful memories of you. R.I.P. and greetings to the Netherlands...! SHOCKING BLUE... pure youth sentiment...!

Mariska Veres was so gorgeous! Passed away at age 59 due to cancer. RIP! Great song! ❤

They are such a great band and I also love how she just casually sings no dancing and she starts dancing untl later or something like that way and a shy way

LYRICS A Goddess on a mountain top Was burning like a silver flame The summit of Beauty in love And Venus was her name She's got it yeah, Baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire At your desire Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire At your desire Her weapon were her crystal eyes Making every man mad Black as the dark night she was Got what no-one else had Wa! She's got it yeah, Baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire At your desire Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire At your desire Ha ha ha ha She's got it yeah, Baby, she's got it Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire At your desire Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire At your desire

Две гитары и барабан, а сколько музыки! Ну и конечно, Мариска Верес! Легендарная группа! Помним и любим!

Ох, и зажигали же мы!!! Привет молодёжи семидесятых!!!!

Someone in 2024

Woooooow tengo 66 años y lo bailabamos en los bailes del barrio!!!!!!!❤❤❤

Let's be honest. Beth Harmon dancing drunk with this song in front of her tv brought you here.

This was my grandmas favorite song, we used to listen to this song together when we went on long trips together, we used to sing it together, she died 2 years ago, but I still smile and dance to this song as if my grandma was still here with me, I miss you grandma

Love listening to this. What a great example of 60’s mod 🎶

Thanks for the AWESOME vibes, when I was a kid. You shaped the 1970s for me. RIP Mariska!

One of those iconic rock songs that will always be

Those 'country' sounding guitar riffs are really cool!

I was in Lebanon. I think it was 1972 when I first heard this song, I loved it then I still do, I went to France 1976 I heared still there, I came to the US I watch the video and repeat it many times. I love it.

I was playing a game of Chess with a Grandmaster from Russia and I had the sudden urge to listen to this song

Still cool in 2024

This was the song of the Century back then! Absolutely Monumental

RIP Mariska. She definitely had it.

All these years later, and that intro is still so distinctive you immediately know it's Venus!

Can’t believe she did that type of high note just beautiful. And so unique as well!

На этой песне учился играть в школе на гитаре.Ностальгия просто прёт!

Как бы эту песню не перепевали, вот такое первоначальное исполнение является самым естественным и выигрышным! Вся слава этой песни, безусловно, принадлежит этой группе.

Было время эта песня звучала из каждого распахнутого окна , без неё не обходилась ни одна дискотека ( ни кто стены не подпирал ) , радиохулиганы разносили её ещё дальше - по всему Миру . Постепенно открывался " железный занавес ", влилось в нашу страну масса доселе не известных групп , это было завораживающе - экзотично , музыка придавала душевный подъём , страна жила , строилась , крепла . Спасибо тебе , Маришка , что ты была в нашей жизни ! Так и хочется иной раз сказать : " Остановите этот поезд , я сойду !" .

Have always loved this song. Even won a restaurant gift certificate in a trivia game because I knew the name of the group. That was roughly 25 years after this hit the charts.

This is music, what a wonderful years

Безумно красиво! И я с этим прожил 50 лет! И не стесняюсь!

Anya dancing to this has to be one of the most iconic series scene on several years, the aesthetics and cinematography plus her expressions and body language were on point.

What a beautiful 🎵 🎶 song an all time classic 👌 ❤, *** western Australia 🇦🇺

I heard this first in the early 1980's by Bananarama in my early 30's but never heard it on radio by Shocking Blue in the 1960's. Boy did I miss out! This is the best better than all others!

1975 СССР это лучший хит того времени!!!! Прошло 50 лет!! И он не потерял свежести,актуальности!!!спасибо за ролик,!!!!2023 россия

Три слезы пустил, как приятно. Моло-д-о-с-т-ь!!! Нет ничего лучше под этой ЛУНОЙ!!!

CLASSIC SONGS NEVER DIED, BRAVO

Es ist egal wie alt dieses Lied auch sein mag, es wird niemals alt, niemals der Mode kommen, und es wird niemals sterben! Auch wenn der Name dieser Band irgendwann einmal vergessen sein wird und man sich kaum daran erinnern möge, wer es gesungen hat, es wird auch noch lange erklingen, wenn wir alle längst Vergangenheit sind!

three of them are already gone. May they rest in peace. This song is legendary!

как сейчас в молодость окунулся в 75г. Тогда это все глушилось,и услышать такое было редчайшей удачей.Отлично!!!

Classic.Her voice is really strong & commanding in this song.You can dance to this,too.

Безумно люблю эту музыку, так как мне было 4 годика и я танцевала под неё из окна нашего соседа грека звучала эта музыка ! Привет с Ташкента Лилия

Сколько лет прошло , а до сих пор звучит классно👍Шедевр.

Always a great song, I remember from my youth. She could not speak English and sang phonetically. Despite the free-spirited lifestyle of so many in the music industry at that time, Mariska never embraced the rock n roll lifestyle. She never drank or took drugs and made it clear upon joining the band that she would not get romantically involved with any of the members. She was pleasantly naïve, when the bands founder and chief lyricist, Robbie Van Leeuwen shouted at her she burst into tears and rang her mother who promptly phoned the band’s manager to complain!In 2006 Mariska Veres died of cancer. She never married or had any children. By her own admission she was unapproachable in the early days, she considered herself as little more than a doll who never found true inner happiness until she turned her back on the industry and pressures of being a beautiful woman in the spotlight. So here’s the video to her most successful single with the Shocking Blue. The lip synching is not great, it never was back then but she certainly has a presence. Forget comparisons with todays artists and imagine seeing her in the late sixties for the first time, there was just something about her…

Another timeless classic from genious.
