@LilRocker2005 2 года назад

@@NYC_Goody "Tragic Kingdom" was their 2nd album I believe and it is considered their "Breakout" album. The follow up called "Return of Saturn" was pretty good and the one after that "Rock Steady" also had a couple hits. Some of the songs I recommend checking out besides "Don't Speak" are "Spiderwebs", "Just A Girl", "Simple Kind of Life", "Hey Baby", "Hella Good", "Underneath It All", and "It's My Life" Another album in a similar vein to "Tragic Kingdom" is the album "Rumours" by Fleetwood Mac. Each member of the band was going through their own stuff and it's all in that album! Two of the band members were married and were in the middle of a divorce while the album was being recorded, two more of the band members were dating each other and were in the midst of their own breakup, and the 5th member of the band was also going through his own divorce all while this album was being written and recorded!

The studio video that went with "Don't Speak" is great, because it has parallel dramas: Gwen's ending relationship with the guy in the band, and also how she (from a media perspective) dominated the band, although musically they were balanced. But if a babe like Gwen is the frontwoman, no matter how good a guitarist you are, you get to go stand in the back! Gwen and the band were all great, tight, live performers. You should react to "Just a Girl" live from the MTV beach party. Super high energy.

One of the reasons she's putting so much emotion into the song is that she and the bassist, Tony Kanal, had actually broken up after a long relationship, and on top of that this video did indeed come out at a time when the band was dealing with a lot of tension because the media focused on Gwen over the other members. No Doubt ended up breaking up in 2003 and the members went off to do solo projects, only getting back together briefly in 2012 for another album and then splitting again.

@theweirdsistersoracle2 3 года назад

@diannaw3034 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing this. I scrolled the comments before I wrote that all out.. and was grateful you beat me to it! Also.... Gwen stated in an interview when this first came out.. how badly she felt. She really truly didn't want to be centered out and didn't like how the media and the entertainment industry was trying to make her the main focus and the star of the band. That it made her embarrassed, and felt very uncomfortable. I remember thinking wow.. I see why this was happening.. because she was and is a star.. but also I felt for Gwen. She was so kind going to bat for the band.. and did her best to downplay her role.. so the band members could shine in the interview.

@larissahorne9991 3 года назад

"I'm Just A Girl" is definitely worth checking out too. In Australia We've had some pretty Amazing Female Artists. But prior to RU-vid etc. they don't seem to be very well known in Other Countries. In the 90's there was Batchelor Girl a duo with lead singer Tania Doko. They had some terrific songs such as "Buses And Trains" and "Treat Me Good". I think you'd Love "Permission To Shine" I dare you not to be Uplifted listening to it. But by far their best has to be "Lucky Me" an Iconic Sarcastic song full of Aussie Humour that incredibly Catchy. I recall an episode of Musical Quiz Show which featured both Local and International Rock Stars. An American Artist was on that episode with Tania Doko, She sang "Lucky Me ". He was Blown Away and said "Why Haven't I Heard This Song Before?" But our Legendary 60's Pocket Rocket is Judith Durham from The Seekers To Get Ahead they moved to England. "Georgy Girl" is pretty well known around the world. But "A World Of Our Own", "I'll Never Find Another You" and "Morningtown Ride" (which one of My Sisters used as a Lullaby) are pretty great too. In the 90's they regrouped and had one of their Biggest Hits and Unofficial Aussie Anthem "We Are Australian". It sums up how Modern Aussies Treat People, We're generally an Open Friendly People who'll say "Hello!" and talk to Anyone. As Oprah said when She visited Australia "What, Did Everyone Go To Nice School?" Unlike America We don't Label People based on there heritage like African American etc. We're all Just Australians and we like to adopt Honorary Australians as well. Check out the video for "We Are Australian". Judith's voice is so strong Her 3 male band mates had to carefully balance Her vocals out. If She'd wanted to She could have drowned them out. She's a Small Woman with an Incredibly Powerful Voice.

Tragic Kingdom (the album this is from) was honestly one of the best albums of the 90's, and as much as it's adored by No Doubt fans, it tends to be overlooked these days when people discuss the 90's. It was huge at the time, and every song on it is killer. I definitely think this is one of the greatest songs to get a real feel for how diverse and powerful Gwen's voice is. Definitely hope you guys check out Spiderwebs and Just a Girl as well, they're equally awesome.

This song is definitely based in reality. Gwen Stefani dated guitarist/bandmate Tony Kanal for 7 years, from 1987-1994 (he is the band-member with the darker skin, and he is British - American). The album “Tragic Kingdom” that this song is from was released in 1995, the year after Gwen and Tony’s break up. Gwen and her brother Eric Stefani, who was a former No Doubt member, wrote the song originally as a love song. The song went through several rewrites and new versions. Gwen modified it into a breakup song about her bandmate and ex-boyfriend Tony Kanal, shortly after he ended their seven-year relationship. Luckily they got past the break up and continued to perform and later collaborate together on some of Gwen‘s solo material, when she decided to go out on her own. ☮️ Steve in Dallas

From google: This song is about the relationship lead singer Gwen Stefani had with bassist Tony Kanal for seven years. She's saying that what they had was real, and it's a pity it couldn't last - don't bother explaining because it hurts. It didn't work out between Stefani and Kanal, but she didn't give up on musicians. She married Bush lead singer Gavin Rossdale in 2002; when they split in 2015, she took up with country star Blake Shelton, her co-star on the singing competition The Voice. >>

I love how they pulled a Fleetwood Mac in that they wrote a lot of their biggest hits based on their personal relationships. 🥰 I also love "Simple Kind Of Life", which I believe is also based on personal situations that were going on in her life at the time.

Sixteen Stone, Razorblade Suitcase, and even Golden State were all pretty awesome albums, and I feel like people don't really mention Bush that much these days, unless it's to talk about Gavin being an ass.

In answer to your question she hasn't sang with No Doubt for years, but she does performs their songs at her concerts, as she wrote many of their songs. I saw her in concert at the Forum in 2016, and she sang both her music as a single artist, and her No Doubt music. Her fans are hoping for a No Doubt reunion one day, with new music, but we also respect that she's having fun making music with her husband right now.

@mourningwoodward 3 года назад

Gwen is still the definitive millennium pop-punk queen to me, IDGAF. I often wish she’d go back to her musical roots. So many bangers across their entire career, but I’d recommend “Trapped In a Box” for the youngest Gwen you’ve ever seen and a taste of their California ska roots, “Excuse Me Mr.” for strong feminine punk rocker Gwen, or “Hella Good” for one of their absolute best and most iconic radio pop-rock songs. For a band that didn’t fall into the whole ‘90s grunge bandwagon, and were therefore kind of overlooked by the media, No Doubt still did FAR better for themselves than nearly any other pop-punk group of their time. And Gwen’s instantly-recognizable voice definitely helped cement her place in pop culture, even before she “sold out” and went full-time pop star. One of my formative bands, and a forever favorite.

@tigger7466 3 года назад

Yasssss girl, I love this rant, cuz I feel the same way, and I'm 55! lol My daughter and I loved ND back in the day, loved the Ska music they were putting out! We loved "Trapped In A Box", Oi To The World", and of course, my other fave, "Bath Water". I personally do not feel they've gotten enough credit and recognition for their amazing contribution to music! They were on the charts for a long time!!! I hate to think she "sold out", but rather she was trying to do more crossover music to get more recognition. I know it sucks when artists do that, it sometimes pisses off their fan base. But I think they are pressured behind the scenes to make these crossover moves, even if it sometimes may be unpopular.

But her attitude still seems the same as it ever was, and we stan a gorgeous, confident, and self-aware goddess.

Used to be my fave band!! My one and only tattoo has a reference to their “tragic kingdom” album which this song is from and the iconic rotting orange. This one song is the one that is very different from the rest of the record which is insanely upbeat with ska/reggae/punk influences wrapped up in this sunshine-y, California pop album. “Just a girl,” “spiderwebs,” “the climb,” “sixteen,” and the whole album is so good. This was their breakout record and it was their 3rd album so I suggest listening to their first two as well, haha. I think my favorite song by them though (it changes haha) is “bath water” from the “return of Saturn” album. So fun and different!! They no longer play together :((( and this song is about her ex boyfriend who is also a band mate, Tony. He is the bass player. They dated a long time but he broke up with her and half of this record is about him, haha but he was fine with that. They stayed friends :) “tragic kingdom” would def classify as a break up album and it was my first vinyl record I ever purchased! Sorry for the novel haha. Keep listening to no doubt!
