Love the Go Gos. Used to dress like Belinda in the eighties (with my dark, short, curly Jane hair.) Trying so hard to be cool. LOL Sometimes miss those days.
日本のTV番組で『世界はsyow by ショーバイ』と言うのがありまして、その番組でこの曲のギターリフと『GO!』と言う掛け声が使われていました。 一瞬だったのですが強烈なインパクトでした。 THE GO GO'S の『GET UP AND GO』と言う曲だとわかった時はとても嬉しかったです。 それから色々な曲を聞きました。 どれも素晴らしい曲です。 ありがとうございます。^^b
Music Radio is not so hot here in Ireland they don't play the fun music they just play what passes as cool and hipster music mind you RTE (our state broadcaster can be good late nite) you gotta love the GO GOS music is the best f.z.
There's no if because it is true, The Go Go's wrote all of their own music and play their own instruments. I've also seen them live many times they are a great band.
Some of the greatest singers and performers never wrote a song but always out their stamp on the material they sought out and interpreted. The “singer-songwriter” model is a 1960s rock / folk thing that doesn’t define the art of good music. This is a likable tune regardless of the writer. Good post and discussion!
If you get up and walk away Leave the past behind Go ahead and take a ride No telling what you'll find The words you say don't mean a thing They fly right by my eyes Lookin' the mirror don't look at me Maybe then you'll realize So get up and go If you're so tired of moving slow I was on the inside Looking out for you But you're the one to make the change There's nothing I can do Now's the time for you to move Actions shout out loud So cut the talk and move your feet Cause words get lost in crowds So get up and go If you're so tired of moving slow I was on the inside Looking out for you Quit talking
Jane was just a bar chord strummer. She didn't have the music skills of Kathy and Charlotte. However she had the best backing vocal ability with a very nice voice, always played solidly and was the most energetic on stage. So she was a very good fit. And probably the cutest of the group. But she had to have some musical ability to be a viable member and she did. To be honest I never knew too much about them as to who had the most music writing contributions. I'll assume more went to Charlotte.
@@jacktheripoff1888 I just watched their documentary, and it seemed like Charlotte and Jane had about an equal amount of songwriting credits. They showed a chart, and a lot of the tunes they co-wrote. Jane mentioned publishing is where the money is, and when Jane and Charlotte got handed a million dollar check, it caused some real problems in the band with the others.
Gina Schock is The Best Rock & Roll Drummer Ever! alongside other 10 great drummers: Topper Headon, Sandy West, Nicko McBrain, Keith Moon, John Bonham, Ginger Baker, Demetra Plakas, Bill Ward, Clem Burke, Charlie Watts...
I have just loved the music, the feel, the mood and the beat of this band now since about 1982!! They are my favorite band to listen to while riding my snowboard in winter or wake board in the summer! Just good times and great music.!! Thank you Go Gos! All 3 of your first LPs I just liston to over and over. Some of the later stuff too. Vacation is m favorite but, the others are close behind! You are the best and I mean that!
When this video was released, the party was well over. The anger and vibe rubbed off in this video. Not too long after, they called it quits until the reunions.
Not the case. Get up and Go was from Vacation which was released in 1982. They released Talk Show in 1984. They toured for that and then Jane left. Kathy moved to rhythm guitar and they hired Paula Jean Brown (co writer of Mad About You) to play bass. They officially broke up in 1985. Years after this video.
@@christine3043 Going by the official biography and their words, not album releases. Do you think band members all got along when they were releasing their last albums?
Its about time this comes up on youtube. Loved the song in 82, though MTV played it a lot, it wasn't a big hit on the pop chart. Charlotte and Jane are such good dancers. Gina looks so cute in that longish isolated shot when she is looking at the rocket as she plays drums. That's good that they kept that in there for so long.
For the record, Kathy left the band in 2013, but she has been back with the Go-Go's for almost 2 years, and they toured in 2018; thankfully, their differences have been settled.
The coolest thing ever? When Kathy Valentine called me for a chat from her new book promotion on Instagram. I grew up in the 80s and loved the coolness of these bad ass chicks 🎸🎶🎙💕 I was giddy after a 15 minute convo.
Psychedelic dream, lysergic and hilarious: the Go-Go’s interacting with their counterparts clay dolls in stop motion animation entitled to a visual quote from the film "Voyage to the Moon" by Georges Méliès. It is the most perfect summary of the whole spirit of Rock & Roll in the New Wave aesthetic: simple, adolescent, unpretentious, colorful, insanely funny.
Induct these talented musicians into the ROCK AND HALL OF FAME!! Only ALL Female Band, Song writers, paved the the way for punk bands like "Greenday" Avril Levine No Doubt. First & Only female band to have #1 Album!! 🎵❤
Lol!! I remember when i was a 12 yr old kid hearing this and watching this on Night Tracks, The intro with the phone rining, well it was 2am on a Friday night I had the Tv on blast, and my mom runs to the kittchen answeraing the phone saying hello? hello? and cursing who the hell is calling at this hour. I said Mom! It;s the new Go Go;s video we laughed and statred dancing, how could you not?
One of their best songs ever and totally overlooked... surf's up!!! ❤❤❤
agree
40yrs later and still sounds and looks great.!
Nice tune by Jane and Charlotte - back then when they wrote most but not all the music, and almost every hit they had.
Plus the two groove so great at that breakdown. Low-key showing off!
The 32 people who dislikes this video should GET UP AND GO!! LOL
I'll never understand idiots who waste their time watching things they don't like. I'm here because I like this band, video, and song.
hahahaha
up to 44 , and Im NOT 1 of Them
P Pp Hope you find happiness and more fulfilment in your life and time. You're better than this surely. Listen and act on the lyrics in this song! :)
Everybody around here who had the get up and go got up and went.
One of the most underrated tracks in their portfolio!
energy off the charts would love to see this choreographed by Toni Basil
I love the percussion on this tune. The Go-Go's have a cheerleader vibe that stays with you.
Love the Go Gos. Used to dress like Belinda in the eighties (with my dark, short, curly Jane hair.) Trying so hard to be cool. LOL
Sometimes miss those days.
liking the GoGos more and more i revert back to early 80s american music
Wow hard to believe this was 1983...53 suddenly doesn't seem too old
Or 61

Why don't I ever hear this song on the radio? It's good to see these old videos uploaded on RUclips. They seem almost brand new to my eyes.
The song isn't played cause it wasn't a big hit on the Hot 100. It was played alot on MTV though
Mine, too!
I know! They play The Cure and Billy Idol and shit but no Go-Go’s. I’ve never seen my two five year olds jam as hard to a song as the Go-Go’s.
You can count every famous band being on RUclips
Music Radio is not so hot here in Ireland they don't play the fun music they just play what passes as cool and hipster music mind you RTE (our state broadcaster can be good late nite) you gotta love the GO GOS music is the best f.z.
Never knew there was a video for this song. My sister LOVED the Go Go's.
Go-Go's 2020! Rock and Roll Hal of Fame!
Absolutely!!!!!!!!
Yes!!!! Just go-gos in hof. Nuff said.
@Joseph Nickell Thank you. You are so fricken right.
Get up and go-go.
I want candy era. A little Bow wow wow here. This song is pure sweetness.
A little U2 as well.
She plays Rogers drums! Old, genuine Rogers drums are my absolute favorite. Warm and full sound!!
The drummers for Queen and Duran Duran should have played that brand of drums too.
My dad was a jazz drummer that used Gretch back in the day. He lost his favorite Slingerland set in a nightclub fire.
@Victor Lockwood Gotta be a Fender chorus amp.
Loved the drums in this song. Should have been a much bigger hit for them.
God Bless the GoGos
yup on headphones
Might seem creepy now, but 30 years later, I just want to give these gals big hugs for Rockin the 80s. Big Hugs to the Go Go gals! ;)
Oh I wanted to give them much more than hugs, let me tell ya! Especially Jane and Kathy! lol
Um...I do apologize if I make you feel old, but it's more like 40 years later. Yikes!
What's creepy about that?
This song is the bomb. Loved the Go Gos and Belinda’s little whip it dance. My youth❤
My Gaaawd I lOve GoGo’s
Congratulations in 2021 for being inducted into the Rock and RoLL HaLL of Fame ✨💛✨💯🌸🌊🌸🚀🎶🥳
If it’s true that they played and wrote all their own music then they have my undying appreciation.
Yes it's true!

If it's true??!!? What??
They better be in the Class of 2021 Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame. Their music held up beautifully with time, and people still love listening to them.
they are in the 2021 rock hall of fame
I was a fan but thought there catalog was a little light to be inducted in the hall of fame.
If you get up and walk away
Leave the past behind
Go ahead and take a ride
No telling what you'll find
The words you say don't mean a thing
They fly right by my eyes
Lookin' the mirror don't look at me
Maybe then you'll realize
So get up and go
If you're so tired of moving slow
I was on the inside
Looking out for you
But you're the one to make the change
There's nothing I can do
Now's the time for you to move
Actions shout out loud
So cut the talk and move your feet
Cause words get lost in crowds
So get up and go
If you're so tired of moving slow
I was on the inside
Looking out for you
Quit talking
Still my FAVORITE song sisters!!!!! 🎶💞🎶
This was my favorite song EVER for most of my life.
Gina's snare drum sounds amazing.
Charlotte's guitar is something special too!
An Excellent Timeless Song by a Great Timeless Band!
Jane never gets enough camera time.!
Just keep rewatching the Rush Hour video clip like I do
@@JCStorm76 ok I did. Yeah that's more like it. Gotta get my Jane fix.

Distinctive sound, enjoyed live performances. Awesome!
I would love to see a video of nothing but a close up from above of Gina playing drums for this song. It is one of the coolest drum beats ever.
Ha! I was thinking the same thing. I really dig the drums on this one.
Very good bass drum work.

It's a crime that this slapping song isn't as well-played today as "We Got the Beat" or "Vacation". (I'd say it's better than "Vacation".)
I had forgotten how much I like this song I haven't heard this in years 🎧🎼🎼🎶😀
MILLION SLOT!!

One of my favorites they just jam it out on this one.
1:11 Kathy is so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
Back when the world 🌍 was a better place... Yeah, we do need to go back 😊
"Go Go music really makes us dance". Truest words ever spoke.
Needed this today. Big hi from Scotland!

@@WhtrBruin Wow that is great to hear. I didn't know that. I hope they didn't hurt Margot
I watched mtv every day and never seen this....weird..
Gina always gave great face.
All girls bands they rock. 80 baby !!!!!!!!!
Great band
Get up & goooo! Classic timeless song!!!
At 16 years old, seeing Belinda in this outfit gave me a whole new appreciation for ripped sweatshirts. :)
Life was good around then. 80

If you have Showtime, you need to watch the new Go Gos documentary! Really great!
Yes, it's excellent!
Explains a lot and in a good light.
Most excellent. One of the best videos from early MTV.
1984 was not early MTV. 🙂
@@dorinriki If they were actually playing videos it was early MTV. Martha Quinn era.
@@dorinriki That's 1982 video.

Well said and an astute, articulate observation.
@@rudolphguarnacci197 oh, thank you, mister.
Thanks for sharing this classic gem, had not seen this since age 12.
This opening is very similar to 'Can't Stop' by RHCP. Go Gos got there first by 20 years!
Brilliant - get up and go go
Love this and have since it came out
I love the surrealism in this video. It'd be right at home in an episode of "Pee-wee's Playhouse". The nostalgia is strong in this one...
Could not agree more.
Totally agree!!!
Wish they would play this on those 80s radio stations.
ugh they play the same songs over and over
KV's clamation is smokin' hot!
Love the Belinda
5 cool chicks.
Love that song and those girls!
ROCK IT OUT!
High school memories =)
Drumbeat and intro vocals are very Bow Wow Wow-esque.
Buuuut ... it sounds like U2 ripped off this for "Desire"
They all ripped off Bo Diddley
Thanks spotify you bring me to random recommendation of the go go's song vacation, heads over heels and now this
This video rules!!
Yet another Go-Go's video I have never seen before! Did this pre-date Night Tracks or something?
Congrats GoGo’s 2021 inducted into the Rock and RoLL HaLL of Fame !!!! Right where you belong✨💛✨🌊🌊🌊🌸💯🥳
Kathy Valentine is my favorite member of the Go Go's! She's the coolest 😎
African-American Bebop & Blues influencing in this song.
a mis 26 oyendo a estas genias*que hermosa música ❤️👌
What a pretty girl ,hello my Beauty ?
Jane dances so cute. 😊
Love Jane and Charlotte off to the right just doing Peanuts dance moves.
Thats actually a pretty cool song and video
A person I know met Jane at a music convention. He was super excited. They were real babes!😍💯
Can we have a closer look at Belinda, lol...a cheerleader's face as Joan Rivers called her. What an underrated album Vacation is though.
Induct these talented musicians into the ROCK AND HALL OF FAME!! Only ALL Female Band, Song writers, paved the the way for punk bands like "Greenday" Avril Levine No Doubt. First & Only female band to have #1 Album!! 🎵❤

😍👍😉👍😇👍🤩👍

Welcome to the Hall of Fame ladies! Well deserved!
These girls were good.
I had no idea there was a video for this. One of my fave songs of theirs. Gina 😍😍
Jane gets my vote for best dancing (...and she looked fine in a Starfleet uniform, too !!)
She always had the best moves.
It got some airplay in Dallas back when the album came out. I think this should have been the first single released of the album.
Soo good to see this.
YES!!❤❤❤
i despised them as a kid, as a grown up nothing but pure love!!!!
0:25~3:20
ショーバイマネーを決めましょう! いくらが出るんでしょうか! ミリオーンスロット!!
Whatever you said, damn straight!
I love the close up of Belinda's face.
Love the mole!
This video popped into my head today. When it was released I called it
Davey & Go-Goliath 😂
Is this thing on ??
claymation
Lol!! I remember when i was a 12 yr old kid hearing this and watching this on Night Tracks, The intro with the phone rining, well it was 2am on a Friday night I had the Tv on blast, and my mom runs to the kittchen answeraing the phone saying hello? hello? and cursing who the hell is calling at this hour.

This Video is Way Better and Funnier Than Any LSD Trip.
NEW WAVE Insane Aesthetics in Pure State. Genius.
Try Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer.
Not one I'm familiar with but I dig it!
Get up and Go was the 2nd single released off the Vacation album and use to be played on MTV
Riffs golden
Good energy
❤
How many videos are there for this song? I have heard that there are 2 but I have only seen this one.
