The decade brought a string of successful releases, including Last of the Independents in 1994, which produced the global hit ‘I’ll Stand by You’. As the century drew to a close the band returned with ¡Viva El Amor! in 1999, a record that paired Hynde’s trademark bite with contemporary production touches. The album demonstrated that, more than twenty years after their debut, The Pretenders remained capable of sounding both timeless and contemporary.\u003cbr\u003eThe closing night of the millennium called for something extraordinary, and in San Francisco the answer was the spectacular SFNYE New Year’s Bash at the historic Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. Staged on 31 December 1999, the celebration brought together an eclectic bill designed to reflect the city’s musical spirit. Topping the bill were The Pretenders, whose rock pedigree and formidable live reputation made them the perfect band to usher thousands of revellers into the year 2000.\u003cbr\u003eWhen The Pretenders took the stage that night they delivered exactly the kind of incendiary performance fans had hoped for. Hynde led the band through a generous set packed with classics and newer material alike, the crowd responding to every riff and chorus with mounting excitement. Familiar favourites rubbed shoulders with songs from ¡Viva El Amor! as the band powered through the evening with effortless authority. As midnight approached the music paused and the entire auditorium counted down together, welcoming the new millennium in a moment of shared exhilaration before the band plunged back into the set and carried the celebration deep into the night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1    The Wait  3:40\u003cbr\u003e2    Precious  3:42\u003cbr\u003e3    Popstar  9:02\u003cbr\u003e4    Talk Of The Town  3:27\u003cbr\u003e5    Downtown (Akron)  3:19\u003cbr\u003e6    Private Life  5:18\u003cbr\u003e7    Hymn To Her  3:16\u003cbr\u003e8    My City Was Gone  5:59\u003cbr\u003e9    Kid  3:36\u003cbr\u003e10    Human  3:59\u003cbr\u003e11    Message Of Love  5:58\u003cbr\u003e12    Stop Your Sobbing  3:04\u003cbr\u003e13    Don’t Get Me Wrong  5:04\u003cbr\u003e14    Bad Boys Get Spanked  3:55\u003cbr\u003e15    Back On The Chain Gang  2:50\u003cbr\u003e16    N.Y.E.
