Laura Branigan - Self Control, Interview and Satisfaction - American Bandstand (1984)

Laura Branigan visits for third time the music TV show American Bandstand produced and hosted by Dick Clark. This segment was aired on ABC on Saturday June 9, 1984. On this ocassion Laura promotes her third studio album "Self Control" released on March of that year. The title track at this moment - June 1984 - became a hit on the U.S. charts and many other countries in America and Europe. She set into motion all those dancers in the studio with the powerful rhythm of her biggest hit "Self Control". After an interview with Dick about singing and becoming an actress, having just completed work on her upcoming film, "Mugsy's Girls", due out at the end of the summer. Laura is about to embark on her summer tour of the United States and the rest of the world. Then she sang the sensual and danceable "Satisfaction".
In my opinion, this was her best performance on AB. It's my all time favorite Branigan's performance on TV. In short, the aesthetics of her, her performance and the whole scene is sublime. Enjoy and share!.

* A fan curiosity: Laura is wearing her classic and iconic belt, perhaps one of her favorites, for its strange form. It is best known because she wore it on the "Self Control" music video but certainly she used it since 1983 and then in several concerts and TV performances around the world, specially during her tour in 1984.
