Poll question: Go-Gos poll: There WERE 9 tunes! |
|
Although only 7 showed up on the nominations thread, plus one from tigereye's earlier Go-Gos thread (See? I saw it). Filled it out with Skidmarks on My Heart, a definite contender for the All Titles Hall of Fame.
I'm sticking with Head Over Heels myself.

Vacation and Our Lips are sealed are worthy runner-ups!

Is our town it is so glamourous Bet you'd live here if you could and be one of us.
This song even had a cool 7/4 time signature.

15. God Bless the Go-Gos was a great album... |
|
that did not get the marketing press it so richly deserved.
Another great tune on that album is "Unforgiven; but like all their other albums, just about every song is good. These ladies still know how to rock. It's like the years between 1984 and 2001 never happened.

9. Welcome to DU! I remember them doing this in Philly in '81 |

"Usually it's about Los Angeles, but tonight it'll be about Philadelphia!" Don't know if they were wasted or not used to being on stage yet, but it sounded really silly.

4. Where's "Alice The Seal"? |
|
That's the one I liked....
Can you hear them They talk about us Telling lies Well that's no surprise
Can you see them See right through them They have no shield No secrets to reveal
It doesn't matter what they say In the jealous games people play Alice the seal

6. I considered putting on "Alice the Seal" and "I'm a Sicilian" but decided |
|
the other tunes and Other deserved a slot. Maybe we can do a misheard lyric thread.

8. Today I'll say Lust to Love |
|
Go Go-Gos!!!! :bounce:
Lust to Love
It used to be fun was in The capture and kill In another place and time I did it all for thrills
Love me and I'll leave you I told you at the start I had no idea that you Would tear my world apart
And you're the one to blame I used to know my name But I've lost control of the game 'Cause even though I set the rules You've got me acting like a fool When I see you I lose my cool
Lust to love Was the last thing I was dreaming of And now all I want is just to love Lust turned to love
That was when the fun was in The capture and the kill In another place and time I did it all for thrills
Love me and I'll leave you I told you at the start I had no idea that you Would tear my world apart

13. And she's a "talented" actress, too! |
|
Joan of Arc in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure (also featuring Fee Waybill of the Tubes and Clarence Clemons of the E Street Band). Also played the Singing Telegram girl in Clue. Classic performances, both of them.

When I saw the Go-Go's at San Diego State University in the early 80's, I spent the whole concert standing at the edge of the stage at Jane Weidlin's feet. They were just getting started, and she was SO nervous, I don't think she ever made eye contact with anyone in the crowd, just kept her stare fixed on the back wall! She is SUCH a babe!
Oh, and I voted for "Can't Stop The World," favorite song from B&TB of myself and my 8-year-old daughter!
