For those of you who might be wondering what it was like in 1981 to be young and feel on top of the world with your friends...
This is exactly how it was. The Go-Go's will always be the perfect representation of that capsule in time.

"if you were on top of the world"... unless if you struggled with schizophrenia when you were a teenager in the 80s, it could be as dark a place as someone living in any era. At least now I can greatly enjoy the vibe from this song!

@@Ishidanfarded2370 They were bigger than that here in the United States. Their debut remains one of the top selling debut albums on the US Charts and was the first all girl band-who wrote their own music and played their own instruments-to have a number one album. They also helped define both the sound of an era and the look of early MTV. Sometimes iconic music is not the best music, I agree... but I invite you to watch their version of this song on video, sit back, and imagine if you were a musically inclined young woman how much impact seeing women who created all of their own music, topping the charts, on heavy airplay on the newest musical medium...

Well, you lived rent-free at home, had few responsabilities and little worries. Once you get older, these things change and everything becomes more serious when you live with a wife you don't like anymore, have children that make you run up the wall and have a mortgage that you can hardly pay.
It was the care-free living that made the 80s great when you were a teenager, not the 80s itself.
Having struggled with schizophrenia when I was a teenager in the 80s, I have no clue why everybody is so chuffed about it. Being 52 now, I think it's as great/bad a time as any other era. I def have a lot more fun now than I did then!!!

She’s a decent musician and from what I can tell, a good person… but the person she replaced (Margot Olavarria) was a bit edgier and added a certain amount of punk attitude that was sorely missing after she was unceremoniously fired from the band she helped start.

The way this song starts is so upbeat and perfectly layered and Belinda Carlisle's first "CAN YOU HEAR THEM?" her voice and expression. I love her dancing too. This song just makes you want to dance in the dark and be the sun with the people you love and get them flowers. I feel like I should say nothing. The things they don't know regardless.

@@143AD I don’t know where you were then (assuming you were alive), but this album ruled the charts for weeks and was all over MTV, and the Go-Gos were hugely popular at my high school. In college I Dj’d for my fraternity and when I played this song everyone went nuts.

You may not have liked them, but your claim that no one else did is laughable. They were the first all-girl rock band to be taken seriously by fans and by the industry, and their place in the Hall of Fame (disregarding whether that entity has any credibility) is absolutely deserved. If you disapprove of them so much, then why the hell are you watching this to begin with?

@tmklunk

Find or two decent songs?

@srkbear1

@@tmklunk Actually, I was there—were you? I vividly recall three solid albums in their heyday, including a smash debut—followed by a career of many great songs, with several classics—and more importantly the first band comprised completely of women to be taken seriously. No Svengalis, no ghost writers, no novelty stunts or corporate manipulation. They worked their asses off paying their dues on the Sunset Strip and LA clubs until they earned attention for their playing and songwriting skills, and got signed.

It may be easy to shrug that off now, but back in 1981 “all girl” rock and roll groups didn’t exist—the closest thing to it were The Runaways, and they were totally the product of a sleazy Svengali—selected for their sex appeal, not their musicianship, and they were sold and packaged as a titillating novelty band. Only Joan Jett (and Michael Steele from the Bangles, who was an early member) turned out to actually have talent. Heart was a pseudo-predecessor but they were front women to an all-guy band.

The Go-Gos were not marketed as eye candy (they cut their teeth as a punk band and they’d never tolerate that)—they emerged unheralded as a rock and roll band comprised of women, and we’d never seen anything like that before. It sparked a huge, ridiculous-in-retrospect debate at the time about whether they were a “real rock and roll band”, and I recall reading pages of backlash from the rock magazines back then about whether women could really play rock and roll. This was actually a huge topic of discussion that was depressingly given legitimacy—they shook up the myth of rock and roll as a man’s job, and their success spoke for itself.

They paved the way for countless all-women bands that have achieved considerable success in subsequent years, and that fact alone is worth the Go-Go’s inclusion in the Hall of Fame—whether you think that organization has credibility or not. They were much more than “one or two decent songs”.
