Their lead singer, Belinda Carlisle, had some solo hits in the mid-late 80's.Her song "Heaven is a Place on Earth" would be a good song to react to.
Yes it would be!
They should really do some Belinda Carlisle's solo work. Stuff like "Mad About You," "Heaven is a Place on Earth," "Leave a Light On" and "I Get Weak." I think she was actually bigger as a solo artist than she was in the Go-Gos
"Circle In The Sand" has always been a favorite of mine sang by Belinda Carlisle too
Did you know she was in the ground breaking LA punk band The Germs, before the Go-gos?
And Summer Rain
The Go-Go's are actually from the 80's. You need to check out "Our Lips Are Sealed" (their first hit) and "How Much More".
Our Lips Are Sealed was their first hit. I bought a 45 RPM record and put it on repeat. After God knows how many repetitions, my poor father yelled from his den, "One more time and your record player goes out the door; never to return!"
Another fun song that has similarities to Head Over Heels is "Vacation". This played at the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home.
Vacation is my favorite classic Go-Go's song. Unforgiven is my favorite from their later work.
@@coolcpa3321 LOL - what a funny story! I understand why you did what you did, AND why your Dad said what he said…
Our Lips are Sealed is like one of the best songs evvver
Thanks guys! You cannot think of the 80’s without the Go-Go’s. These women rock🔥🔥🔥🔥
You want a keyboard heavy video where the musician is feeling it. You should check out Depeche Mode.... just can't get enough.
Agreed! Loved them then, love them now. 😎
I thought they were 70s and when Belinda went solo was in the 80s
In the 90s, they invited my 5yr old son (who’s autistic & loved their music) backstage to meet them. They were all SO nice, took pictures with him, signed his shirt etc. He asked Jane & Belinda what roads they took to get to Phoenix, and where they were going next, and when they said “Vegas” he gave them directions. They loved that. 😂❤️
That’s awesome, I’m sure y’all had a blast!
We did. He’s 30 now, still remembers it and still has the autographs/pics/shirt etc. And even now has pics of it on his Facebook page.
They were incredibly generous with the time they spent. The memory of a lifetime for us.
@@lt6134 2 years old or 30 years old they still our babies, I have two daughters 34&35 years old but still my babies, nice to meet you here at the RSR family🙋🏻♀️
Thanks Jean! You’re so right.
Have a great weekend!
❤️👍
OMG, my autistic son loves directions too! Thank goodness because I get lost turning a corner.
The Go-Go's were just inducted last year into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame - FINALLY! They are the first all-female band to write their own music and play their own instruments. Check out Our Lips Are Sealed, We Got the Beat, Vacation, This Town. Belinda Carlisle is the lead singer. Check out her solo music - Heaven is a Place on Earth, I Get Weak, Circle in the Sand.
That's not true but they were the 1st to make it big. They rock
@@dustywaynemusic6297 Yeah, I was thinking of the Slits and Runaways. But I'm not certain the Runaways technically wrote *all* their own music. The Slits certainly did.
Circle in the Sand is a fantastic song.
@@drea4195 true. but my favorite Slits song is their cover of "Heard It through the Grapevine"
Actually, Fanny in the early 1970's was the first all female group to chart and write their own music. The Millington sisters (Jean and June) also had another first, being the first Filipina-Americans to chart.
Thanks guys! You cannot think of the 80’s without the Go-Go’s. These women rock🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😜
Still the most successful band of women who wrote their own music and played their own instruments. So glad they got into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.
@@jco207 I’m right with you buddy. They are on almost all 80’s compilations. Thanks
“Head over Heels” will make you dance that 80’s bop… you should have see my friends and l !!
@@sheilameyers152 Sheila, I can only imagine that sight and beat it was great. I did the same thing myself, lol. Thanks for comment
You really should react to "Our Lips are Sealed" The quintessential summer music song of the 80's. Surprisingly, Belinda Carlisle had more hits as a solo artist than with the Go Go's. Check out: Heaven is a Place on Earth, Mad About You, I Get Weak, Leave a Light, Circle in the Sand, Summer Rain and my personal favorites, I Feel the Magic and Shot in the Dark.
And Jane Wiedlin's album was better than all of Belinda's.
@@scottfrench4139 that's a bold statement but I'll have to check it out.
Sorry I'm going to have to contest that statement. The "quintessential summer song" of the 80's HAS to be, "Cruel Summer" by Bananarama!
Not even a person favorite of mine but, that song was EVERYWHERE back then.
Which makes for a nice little tie in to the song "Our Lips are Sealed" by Fun Boy 3. Both bands covered it with the Go-Go's recording it 1st & Bananarama sang back up for FB3. Also Jane Wiedlin was having a secret affair with the lead singer of FB3, Terry Hall. If you listen to the lyrics carefully you can hear what they're going through while they dated.
Another fun fact Jane was a Dominatrix for a number of years.
Not sure if she is still. When ever I hear her voice, I chuckle and think; Wow, she's a Dominatrix?! 🤭🤭
She is the original "Carlton" dancer. Saw them at the Hollywood Bowl in the 80s. Good memories.
He said in an interview that he got it from Courtney cox from the dancing in the dark video. He just exaggerated it
Alfonso Ribeiro got it from those teen parties he went to where white girls were dancing like that lol
Their rhythm guitarist, Jane Wiedlin, had a great solo hit called "Rush Hour." She also did a song with the group Sparks called "Cool Places."
I totally forgot about Cool Places. That's a great song!
AND she played Joan of Arc in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure"!
@@Shrykespeare Yikes! I forgot about that!! I'll have to watch it again!!
@@Shrykespeare And the singing telegram girl in the movie Clue! 😁
@@Shrykespeare I was going to mention that one! Excellent!😉
GoGos, Bananarama, the Bangles…girl pop was so awesome back in the ‘80’s.
Yeah, I recommend giving Bananarama a listen.
For those of you wondering, The Go Go’s consist of Belinda Carlisle on lead vocals, Gina Schock on drums, Charlotte Caffey on lead guitar and keyboards, Jane Wedlin on rhythm guitar, and Kathy Valentine on bass guitar.
The Go-Go's song "Our Lips Are Sealed" (a massive hit for them) is, for my money, one of the all-time best pure pop songs ever produced. It's just perfection.
The Go-Go's lead singer, Belinda Carlisle also has a really good solo career. My favorite of her solo career is "Mad about you". ❤️ Here's the link:
ruclips.net/video/XmdtJWmR9zQ/видео.html
Mad About You and Circles in the Sand. She's got a unique voice. Big fan.
My favorite was "I Get Weak".
I always liked "Leave a Light On"
Y'all in this thread are naming some badass songs! ❤
Jane Weidlin, the guitarist with the silver guitar was actually in the movie Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. She played Joan of Arc. She is very talented!
Jane was also the singing telegram girl in Clue
She also did solo work, and had one of my favorite 80s tunes with Sparks, "Cool Places"
I really love her song Rush Hour.
I thought that was her!
The Go-Go's were very early 80s and they were gone by 85. They started out as a punk band but didn't get far. Then they went and made "Our Lips Are Sealed" and they began their skyrocket careers. They were so huge! I think the studio tried to keep them doing bubble-gum type music and that's what broke them up along w drugs and infighting about who gets what credit and money.
Some of the best Go-Go's songs were on that first album "Beauty and the Beat" but not released as singles like "This Town", "Tonite", "Fading Fast", and "Automatic"
They're still touring - San Fran on March 24
it is called
'this town
'
@tom g thanks! I don't know where "Our Town" came from. I can sing it in my head and it comes out right.
Good info Bryan Ceja,they went the same as most bands/groups I guess.Everyone has a set time in the spotlight,then it's time to move on.Haven't listened to any of their music in years,but time to change that !!!LOL. Nostalgic ride for me,down memory lane. LOL.
The just-inducted-into-the-Rock-and-Roll-Hall-of-Fame badass 80s rocker chicks! Yes! "Vacation" is a must-listen, as is "Our Lips are Sealed". Can't go wrong! And man... remember those Flashdance-type shirts with the collars ripped off?! There simply wasn't a better decade to grow up in than the 80s. FYI - The piano player is Charlotte Caffey. Belinda Carlisle sings lead, Gina Schock on drums, Kathy Valentine on bass, Jane Wiedlin on guitar.
Stank-face piano songs? ooh. "Freedom 90" by George Michael; "Life's What You Make It" by Talk Talk; "Die to Live" by Volbeat; "Tutti Frutti" by Little Richard; "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting" by Elton John.
They say Belinda Carlisle from the band was the first to wear the ripped off collar look.
One of their biggest hits, along with We Got the Beat (which you have done) and Vacation.
The person on the keyboards is Charlotte Caffey. Multi-talented musician! You mentioned that you didn't appreciate the keyboard player on the last song and that is because she was playing lead guitar on that song. Although they all wrote songs for the band, she and Jane Wiedlin (the one with the silver guitar) were credited for a large majority of the song writing for the band.
Yes, this is the only Go-Go's song I can think of where there is really any significant keyboard. Charlotte is usually on lead guitar. Back around 2009 I finally saw them play live, after being a fan of theirs since the early 80s, and being in the presence of Charlotte playing that piano on "Head Over Heels" definitely ticked an item off my musical bucket list. It was a great show, but unfortunately it was during the period when Kathy wasn't in the band, so I still haven't seen the classic lineup.
Also, Charlotte was on a lot of cocaine at this time.
she is so talented, she made that band what it was. the documentary made me realize what a hard time she had with heroin, and still performed! a truly talented musician.
The live version of Mercenary is a perfect example of her keyboard work at work. That Day had very significant keys as well!
Unfortunately heroin as well. She made it through thankfully.
They were the first all- girl band who played their own instruments and wrote their own songs to have a number one album. It was number one for 6 weeks. One of my favorite albums.
And 40 years later, still the only one. For better or worse.
And it was one of fewer than 30 debut albums to hit number one!
Bangles
@@chrisandersen5635 Bangles
Still love their music,even tho I haven't listened to them inyears !!! LOL. That's about to change,tho !!! LOL.
My fave Go Gos song! When they played this in their Central Park reunion concert the audience started cheering as soon as Charlotte rolled the keyboard out onto the stage because they KNEW what was coming! Hey, I would have cheered in anticipation, too!
They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame last year. You should definitely watch a clip from their induction ceremony.
YES it was the best. and Berrymore did an awesome job introducing them. They still got it.
The lead singer, Belinda Carlisle, had a nice solo song “Circle In The Sand”. I once read a description of that song as “haunting”, which is quite apropos.
That's a great song! Very steamy!
That's the jam!
They formed in 1978, but really hit their stride in the 80's. Love this song! And, they are on tour again!
The GOGOs had fun feel good music, loved the 80'S decade. Go rock. Gina is so good on the drums, as are Kathy, Jane and Charlotte, and Belinda on vocals.
You should try “I Get Weak” by Belinda Carlisle. One of her solo songs. You want a piano song try “I’m So Excited” by the Pointer Sisters
Great choice!
I was living for The Go-Gos in the 80s! Honestly, with Belinda Carlisle as lead singer and
Jane Weidlin as the lead guitarist you couldn't lose!
Jane Wiedlin was the rhythm guitarist. Charlotte Caffey (who played piano on "Head Over Heels" as well as in the song's video) was the band's lead guitarist.
@@gregsager2062 You're right.. Jane Weidlin was a talented songwriter, but she didn't know how to to play an instrument, so she learned to play the rhythm guitar and NEVER had the ability to play lead guitar in any song.
@@k9spjack True, that's her role. But I've gotta say for Jane....she's a good rhythm player on that SG. She gets a good meaty rock n' roll sound and feel. She 'plays big' for her size.
@@k9spjack And Kathy has reported that *she* played lead guitar (or at least all the solos, I can't remember her exact words) on all of Side A of "Talk Show" (which is my favorite Go-Go's album). One thing the Go-Go's and the Bangles had in common is that in both bands, the best guitarist ended up as the bassist (Michael Steele was by far the best guitarist in the Bangles and -- as much as I adore Charlotte -- I think Kathy is a stronger guitar player.)
written by Charlotte Caffrey(piano) and Kathy Valentine(bass) and I love Jane Wiedlin and Gina Schock's contribution here. Belinda Carlisle's vocals also rock!!
Rick Wakeman is known as one of the greatest keyboardists in Rock history and he played mostly with the great band, Yes. He is a master of the piano, synthesizer, organ, harpsichord, you name it. Rick is in the Hall of Fame with Yes. It's time for a long song by Yes. I keep asking for "Roundabout," which is a well-known classic from the '70s, but perhaps you should react to "Awaken" which is long but doesn't feel like it, has majestic music, great piano and will leave you speechless.
Amber since you like 80’s music you should listen to “The Metro” by Berlin who’ve you reacted to once before.
Great suggestion.
Absolutely brilliant suggestion.
'Female Friday' needs some Natalie Merchant/10,000 Maniacs.
I agree..these are the days is one of my favorite tunes ever
The first album I ever bought was "Beauty and The Beat" (in cassette format). You can't play 80's music without the Go-Go's.
This band changed my life! I started playing the drums because of Gina Schock's amazing talent. She and the other women in the band truly paved the way for more great female artists. I was lucky enough to see them in concert several times--what a blast! And I met Jane Wiedlin many years later. A super nice person. Thank you for listening to them!
Gina is definitely a powerhouse on drums. When you see them live, it's hard not to watch her. And on songs like "Get Up and Go" and especially "Beatnik Beach," the drumming is just insane. She and Kathy Valentine are IMO one of the tightest, most muscular, and (sadly) most underrated rhythm sections in rock history, and "Head Over Heels" distills that perfectly.
@@richmurray8992 I totally agree! I saw them live four times and they are both amazing musicians!
Belinda Carlisle in her prime, be still my heart...
My favorite GO-GOs song. Perfect vocals . This song soars!!!!!
Agreed. This is a song you can just listen on repeat to for days. (I've done it.)
Same here!!!
Never EVER gets old!
Dopamine 😊
The dark-haired rhythm guitarist who wears “what moms would wear” is Jane Wiedlin, who had a moderately successful solo career in the latter half of the ‘80s with hits like “Blue Kiss” and the Top 10 hit “Rush Hour.”
she might have worn what mom would wear, but in her personal life she had some serious kinks
"Tangled" is my favorite of Jane's solo works--both the album and the title track.
@@richmurray8992I'm not big of that album, at least as produced by Peter Collins. Jane re-recorded some of the songs from "Tangled" as stripped-down, acoustic versions, and they are much better that way. (You can find recordings on RUclips.)
Billy Preston "Nothing from Nothing" for some pretty masterful 70's piano work! He played keyboard for the Beatles on lots of songs....most notably on 'Get Back'
"Lady Madonna" also came to mind when I tried to think of songs where the piano really jumps out at you.
You would love Etta James, Tell Mama
Etta was a powerhouse.
Pure 80’s!
Bananarama is another girls band you need to check out. "Venus" "I Heard a Rumor", "Cruel Summer" and several others. Go Go's were fun and they had some ...different... backstories to them. Belinda Carlisle had some monster hits on her own "Heaven is a Place on Earth" is my favorite.
Here's another essential piano-driven rocker for you guys to react to: "Roll With The Changes" by REO Speedwagon. It rocks hard with a great hook plus it's got real gospelly, churchy piano and organ in it. And and uplifting message.
Also, "Isn't It Time?" by The Babys. Incredible piano hook and song.
Also, "That's Just Way It Is" by Bruce Hornsby.
One of my all-time favorite bands from the 80's 🥰
70s? These guys were pure 80s! You really should go back to the hits that really made them explode onto the music scene and MTV. Also, if you can find some of the "Behind the Music" stories about these guys you would be in shock! I was so in love with Gina Shock, the drummer!
RUclips has a lot of those music documentaries.
The band was formed in 1978, so the hosts are technically correct.
You can’t think about the 80s without the Gogos!! And they wrote their songs and played their instruments!! Vacation and Our Lips Are Sealed are also great songs from them! Also Belinda Carlisle (their lead singer) had a decent solo career after the band too
This is my FAVORITE Go-Go's song and one of my Top 10 songs of all time. Charlotte's piano riff is amazing, but Kathy's bassline and especially that bass solo is absolutely iconic. (She's the one in the yellow jacket.)
Belinda Carlisle went solo in late 80s early 90s and had insanely good beats. Pretty much everything on her albums was 🔥.
Since you guys like that piano lick, I recommend "Let's Spend The Night Togetherr" by The Rolling Stones for a reaction vid which is where Charlotte cribbed it from. Also, check out The Go Gos doing "Head Over Heels" in Central Park in 2001. They rock as hard as any band and entertain as well as any band ever. They just command the stage and entertain the hell out of that crowd!. One of the best concerts I've seen.
I was the pianist in an all-girl band in the early 80s in college, and it was pretty much required to cover The Go-Go's. People LOVED this song at parties.
One of my all-time favorites. I always clap along.
A big congrats to the Go Go's for finally taking their place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this last year. A well deserved honor. They were my heroes growing up and I love them still. An excellent song on this cold Friday afternoon!
Squeeze "pulling muscles from a shell" everyone in the band is great but Jools Holland has a fantastic piano solo in the song
Yes! I was just thinking to myself 'which Squeeze song is it that has that great piano solo ?' And you called it!
That's a great one!
i love squeeze! they totally need to do some squeeze reactions!
They were just inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. "Our Lips Are Sealed" was always my favorite back in the day.
That off shoulder sweat top look was 80's from "Flashdance". This how I dance to this. I learned to dance from Belinda Carlisle lol
Please please pleeeaaase do a reaction to their zoom performance of "We Got the Beat" on Today Show! It's more recent so they're much older, but they stil ROCK! I really think you'll both love it!
Another song from this same album that's worth a reaction is "Turn to You," a more guitar--heavy song. Rob Lowe is in he video they shot for it.
Great song
That whole album (Talk Show) is fantastic. I know everybody else prefers Beauty & The Beat, but Talk Show has always been my favorite Go-Go's album.
Go-Go's!!!! Thank God for Female Friday! They take me back to a more innocent time in my life! (And, if you want some stankface from piano, try Jerry Lee Lewis "the Killer".)
Yes, I was thinking Jerry Lee Lewis too, although the only song I could think of was "Great Balls of Fire"!
Yeah! Good choice..Belinda Carlisle is one of my fav female singers.. and The Go Gos one of my fav from High School.
Listen to Vacation and Our Lips are Sealed by them. Also Belinda had a solo album.. Listen to "Mad About You".. my favorite..played that to death!!
Blessed Be 🙂❤
finally, you react to one of my fav Go-Go songs! the Go-Go's and the Bangles are two of my favorite girl groups
One of my favorite 80s groups and song!! That drum and bass break is always bomb! I am sitting here with my memories where my friends I would sit and do the same thing you guys are doing. Listening and having a good time! ❤️✌🏽music y’all!
Next GoGo’s song should be “our lips are sealed” live from Central Park
The all-female band 'Fanny' actually paved the way for The Go-Go's, The Bangels and so on. Fanny was a pure kick ass Rock band who could musically go toe-to-toe with any of their 70's all-male contemporaries.
If you’re looking for some banging piano, try “One Fine Day” by Carole King. An added plus: some sick saxophone, too!
They’re like the female Ramoes.
They have the feel of authentic Rock at it’s core.
Perfect description. They're such a damn good band and one of the best ever. Genuine rock n' roll.
@@Itelkner
I think I stole the Remons reference from a Rolling Stones article from way back🤣
@@richardmardis2492 An honest man! The Go Gos do or did "I Wanna Be Sedated" live, btw.
"Turn to You" is one of their best. Not one of their bigger hits but so much fun.
Definitely the 80's girl band. The Go, Go's - Vacation. Great reaction. 😀
Anything by Little Richard or Jerry Lee Lewis has really rockin' keyboards!! Also, Billy Joel, & Elton John (especially "Crocodile Rock").
A song that Elton apparently HATES with a passion. I guess it's not Deep and Meaningful Enough for his taste. But, God love 'im, he knows the crowds want it, so he plays it. Says the best thing about retiring is that he'll never have to play it again.
"Lust to Love" is the Go-Go's at their shredding best.
For piano antics look no further than Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, and some live Elton John and Billy Joel.
I know from watching other reaction channels, many Billy Joel songs end up blocked, but his 1977 performance of New York State of Mind particularly is amazing. But any live Billy Joel almost always features mind blowing piano work. He is truly a master.
I love this lineup and their interactions in videos. Another great Go-Gos song & video is Vacation. Such a great band! Charlotte Caffey was the lead guitarist and the piano player that was hammering the ivories in this song. Kathy Valentine (and her last name makes her red hair, red shirt, and red bass guitar all make extra sense) and Gina Schock made a great rhythm section. Jane Wiedlin on rhythm guitar and backing vocals and Belinda Carlyle on lead vocals. They were a fun band for certain.
And as a middle schooler I was madly in love with Kathy Valentine, the bass guitarist. 😀
I am so blessed to live through the sweet spot of music; 60' - 90s'! When the artists were creative, inventive, originals, visionary, and leading-edge. Love watching your trip through these artists throughout the remarkable decades of pure talent and instrumental geniuses; it's my time machine, thank you!
For a 60s/70s vibe check out the Rascals! “People got to be free!” Thank you!
That's more a 60s vibe..not 70s...the rascals were from the 1960s.
For your next Female Friday, please check out the great K. D. Lang singing "Crying" during her MTV Unplugged video. Amazing!
You should look into a band called "Fanny" for Female Friday. I especially recommend a song called "Ain't That Peculiar".
Fanny was REALLY the first all-female rock and roll band, but they didn't write their own songs like the Go-Go's.
I lived out in California in the early 80's when The Go-Go's hit the big time. They have SoCal all over them.
Played their album "Talk Show" to death back in the 80s. Loved it. My favorites from that album were "Yes or No", "Beneath the Blue Sky", "Turn to You".
I love Turn to You.
Belinda really sings from the toes up on Beneath the Blue Sky.... another great GO-GOs song
I adore that album from start to finish and am glad you mentioned "Beneath the Blue Sky," because I have always thought it's one of their best songs. (If you tune everything out, you realize Kathy is playing a really fascinating, complicated bassline on that one.) "Forget That Day" and "Mercenary" are among my other favorites.
@@richmurray8992 Its a shame they broke up shortly after that. It just seems like they were really hitting their stride about then.
The piano tune I’d love for you guys to check out is Mess Around by Ray Charles! Also has some great sax too!
The lead singer Belinda Carlisle Wasnt very well known until she became a Solo artist and Started releasing Major Chart Topping Hit singles such as Circle in the Sand, Leave a Light On and ofc her Signature Song Heaven is a place on earth She Became a Massive Singing Icon Off the Top of Those Hits Im glad she did because shes one of my favs 🙌❤😊
Summer Rain
@@Imaginativeone_DF yes thats a good one
As a very young teen hearing this when it came out... and seeing the video... I thought I was just super into drums and wanting to be a drummer... turns out I just had a crush on THIS drummer! Hah! My friends and I were experts as our air band version of this song. Oh and in 2020 I finally decided to take up the drums! Of course this song had to be on my list. LOve seeing you guys react to the music I grew up with... so fun to see it through fresh eyes!
Can't ever go wrong with the Go-Gos! Rock and Roll Hall of Famers!! Love them!!!
Actually the 1980’s
One word that can really sum up the Gogo's is FUN! And they look like they sound. Sunny, Southern California. And the first all female group to write, play, and sing all of their music, and with the first Number One album! Such a great time that was. And I know 'cause I was there!
This is my favorite Go-Gos song; I remember rocking out to it in the summer of 84! The keyboard player is Charlotte Caffey; she wrote many of the group's songs.
Now that you've done a few Go-Go's songs, you should check out some of the solo work of lead singer Belinda Carlisle. She had a long string of hits including "Heaven is a Place on Earth, Mad About You, I Feel the MAgic, Circle in the Sand, I Feel Free, La Luna, Summer Rain, Runaway Horses, We Want the Same Thing, Do You Feel Like I Feel, Little Black Book, In too Deep, Always Breaking My Heart, California, etc.
Go go's didn't become popular until the 80's, with the rest of the Nuwave groups
Yeah.... it was around '81 or '82 when they were big.
Y'all should do a Jill Scott track. For my money Golden or Getting In The Way the live version. Covers Female Friday and R&B/Neo-Soul.
I love the Go-Go's! I"ve had a crush on Jane Wiedlin since 1981!
This is a great choice! I wish y'all could experience what it was like when MTV first came out, it was like nothing we'd ever seen...we'd sit down & watch it for hours just to see what crazy songs & videos would come up. And this one...this was a staple of those days, takes me back, man. Such a special time!
The Go-Go’s and The Bangles defined female the pop band sound of the 80s. Everyone else has already made excellent suggestions for the next few Go-Go’s songs you should hear. On The Bangles side, y'all have already listed to "Hazy Shade of Winter", where they rocked out, so a good change of pace next would be " Eternal Flame".
"Let It Go" has some good keyboard action, if they're looking to scratch that itch.
Oh - trust me guys, you ain't _ever_ experienced true "piano stank-face" until you hear more of Jerry Lee Lewis. He absolutely *DEMOLISHES* the piano!! 🔥🎹
Go-Go’s video for “Vacation” was a lot of fun and an homage to vintage films of trick female water skiers.
The Go Go's have been one of my favorite bands for my entire life. I remember hearing the Beauty And The Beat album back in 1982 when I was only 5 years old and it has remained one of my favorite albums throughout my life. Really love the solo albums from Jane Wiedlin as well especially the songs "Rush Hour" , "Blue Kiss" and "Tangled".
If you want piano smashes, then may I suggest Jerry Lee Lewis singing “Great Balls Of Fire”.
Go-Go's are 80's, not 70's
I know whoever told these nice couple they were from the 70s lied maybe the person who told were thinking Runaways a very influential group for women rockers!
One of the greatest piano solos ever is Billy Powell of Lynyrd Skynyrd on Call Me the Breeze. You'll love it. And of course Jerry Lee Lewis on Great Balls of Fire.
Amazing piano? Bruce Hornsby and the Range: “The Way It Is”, “Mandolin Rain”, “The Show Goes On”
The bass line on “Our Lips Are Sealed” is pretty damn good, one of my favorites
Male Saturday, Male Sunday, Male Monday, Male Tuesday, Male Wednesday, Male Thursday, Female Friday. "EQUITY!"
Not totally fair but still true 🤔
@@DarqJestor Yep😏
Except that they do females during the week. Two days a go they did Linda Rondstat and the day before that they did Starship with Grace Slick. I wish they would have more female artists throughout the week and abandon Female Friday.
@@claytoncourtney1309 It's hard because men were more prolific recording artists, not because of talent but because of access and acceptance. Fortunately that's changing a bit now.
So awesome! My favorite Go-Go's song. The piano is fantastic! Five rocking babes at their peak!!! Love it!!! 😍
Go-Gos are from the 80s. Great band! Great Songs! Their first album "Beauty and the Beat" came out in 1981. This song "Head over Heels" was from their last band album "Talk Show." They have a song on there called Mercenary that is a kind of slow song but very good as well.
I'm ancient and grew up listening with these ladies. But they were the 1980s. They were always just fun. I think that "Skidmarks on My Heart" is my favorite.
Wow this really takes me back. Ahhh the 80s were the best. I was a teenager in the 80s. It really is the best sound track of my life.
The Go Go's were just inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as the first all female band to play their own instruments. Yep. They were the very first! So proud to have been introduced to "new wave" as it was back then and every single woman just doing what they do.
i was so in love with Jane Wiedlin! just the cutest!
