Subject: Chrissie Amphlett passes at 53......

Written By: holicman on 04/22/13 at 4:33 am

Lead singer of Aussie 80/90's band The Divinyls has passed from Breast Cancer, they had quite a few international hits, most recognizably "I touch myself" and "too much too young" and "Pleasure and pain" being arguably their biggest hits. If you do not know these songs I am sure that you will appreciate the music and the unique vocal we have lost today RIP Chrissie...

She certainly did. And that particular song is the only one I know from the band (as it was their best-known hit in the States).

The best Divinyls song ever was Pleasure and Pain from 1985.  I also knew them for Boys in Town from 1983 that got lots of radio play.

R.I.P. to a great singer :(

Aww, sorry to hear it; I really dug her voice!  I still love "Boys In Town".

The boys in town song was AKA too much too young so I am glad it was played overseas :)
