Synopsis
The Bangles perform "Be With You" in a concert setting, with the video built around stage footage, tight shots of the band, and energetic performance edits. Debbi Peterson, who sings lead on the track, is shown behind the drums as the group moves through the song's polished pop-rock arrangement. The clip favors a straightforward performance format rather than a narrative storyline, capturing the band during the late-1980s touring period and emphasizing their live presence.
Factoids & Trivia
- "Be With You" was the third single from The Bangles' 1988 album *Everything*. It was written by drummer Debbi Peterson with Walter Igleheart, making it one of the band's relatively uncommon singles with Peterson on lead vocals.
- The video was conceived as a performance piece and was filmed at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium in California during the band's 1989 concert period.
- The single reached No. 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 23 in the United Kingdom. It became The Bangles' final US Top 40 hit before the group broke up later in 1989.
- The official clip is assembled from concert footage rather than a conventional scripted storyline. Some surviving performance material appears to come from a longer professionally filmed concert, which has never been widely released in complete form.
- The video was later included in compilations of The Bangles' music videos, including *Bangles Greatest Hits*, released in 1990.
