Treat Me Good (feat. Jessica Mauboy)

About This Song

Australian pop icons Bachelor Girl return with a bold new take on their 1998 hit, “Treat Me Good”, teaming up with beloved powerhouse vocalist Jessica Mauboy for the release. Originally lifted from the duo’s debut album, Waiting for the Day, this mammoth track is the first taste of the band’s anticipated forthcoming redux album, Waiting For The Day: Artist Sessions, a complete reinterpretation of the double Platinum album that captivated the world. “We (somewhat audaciously!) began to ask some of our favourite Aussie artists and friends if they would lend their voices and/or instrument to our project,” beams Tania Doko. “What started with one, became 13 artists on this 15 track Redux album, and we could not be more thrilled.” The duo has also announced their Waiting For The Day Redux tour which will kick off at Brunswick Ballroom on August 8, before moving through Brisbane, Adelaide and finishing off in Sydney at The Factory Theatre on October 18. Tickets are on sale now from www.bachelorgirl.com. “Treat Me Good” with Jessica Mauboy offers a reimagined version of the earlier classic, bringing a modern edge, and blending its nostalgic grooves with Mauboy’s soulful intensity to deliver a vibrant anthem of empowerment and self-worth. It’s a collaboration that proves timeless songs can evolve with heart, purpose and renewed spirit. Genuinely so gracious to have Jessica Mauboy gifting her voice to this iconic song, Doko said, “Treat Me Good was written 3 decades ago, and we still mean it. It’s been reinvigorating to create this full circle moment. Jess Mauboy’s contribution is the prize here, with the song now taking on an added sisterhood narrative - standing for the self, AND each other. It’s been humbling to learn how much the song meant to Jess, from her busking Bachelor Girl tunes in Darwin, to singing her face off with us in the studio while 7 months pregnant with Mia. It’s a ‘pinch us’ moment all round.”
