The number one all female rock band that plays their own instruments and writes all their own music... OF ALL TIME. No other all female rock group has come close to the success of The Go-Go's to this day.
You know..after watching these reactions from various people I realized just how many decades of EPIC music I've lived through and enjoyed. I was born in 61 so I've lived through almost 6 decades of musical wonder.
Go-Go's represented girl power and thensome!!!..Great talented all girl band!! BEAUTY AND THE BEAT album was incredible!!! Head over heels...Our lips are sealed..Vacation 👍👍👍🔥
Great tune! I saw the Go-Go's in 1983 at a venue called Pine Knob in Michigan. Oh, guess who opened for them? INXS! Yes!!! It was their first US tour. Wow! That was a great concert! - Rick
The Go-Go’s made me realize just how much I appreciated female role models in music. This came out when I was in college-we road tripped from Chapel Hill to Greensboro to see them live. Girls rock!
The lead singer of the Go Go's is Belinda Carlisle. She had several hits on her own after the Go Go's broke up. Try her big hit called Heaven Is A Place On Earth studio version.
This song brings back so many memories for me. The Go Gos were, at the time, a fantastic female group who all played their own instruments - unlike many of the present day. This song is also featured in the film, Brimstone and Treacle [featuring Sting, from the Police].
The first time in music history an ALL-GIRL BAND to have a #1 album was The GO-GO’s...they are possibly going to be inducted into The Rock N Roll Hall of Fame this year...fingers crossed they make it in!🤞🏽
The beautiful Jane wiedlin saw here in the UK many years ago, I can remember as if it was yesterday,she was standing only a few feet away from me ,and she had the most beautiful smile. Rush hour. A real feel good video at these dark moments in time.
Belinda Carlisle - “Heaven is a Place on Earth”. She has such a gorgeous voice. As much as I love the Go-Go’s and her solo stuff, I have a favorite with her. She sang harmonies/duet with Pat DiNizio of the Smithereens. The Smithereens are another rabbit hole to go down. Their lead singer, Pat, passed away a couple of years ago, but this tune with Belinda Carlisle is so beautiful. Smithereens - “Blue Period”. ua-cam.com/video/_SECAMHq3RY/v-deo.html Other Smithereens stuff: “Blood and Roses”, “Behind the Wall of Sleep”, “A Girl Like You”, “Only A Memory”, “Top of the Pops” and so much more. 💜💜💜
I wanted to learn to play the drums when I was a little girl. I even had a bugs bunny drum set. The Go Gos was the first time I had ever seen or noticed a female drummer. I thought that was so cool.
I saw them on their first national tour at the world's largest bar in Ft Worth. I had only seen videos so this was going to be live and didn't know what to expect. This was their opener to a packed house. All played their own instruments and sang. One of the best shows I've seen.
There is no way NOT to have fun at a Go-Go’s concert. They themselves say “there’s something about when the 5 of us get together”. I’d love to be a fly on the wall during rehearsal
This was the song that turned them into international superstars. For better or worse, it was also the song that pissed off a lot of their original fans because overnight they went from an underworld all-girl punk group to pop princesses. The studio version was longer than this quick live version.
Still the ONLY all-girl band that wrote their own songs & played their own instruments to hit the top billboard charts & also only one to debut at #1 (super rare!).
Finally more Go Go's! God Bless you Jayy!! Not enough respect from other reactors. A big chunk of music history everybody missing. 🤷🏽♀️The Go Go's are iconic trailblazers. The most successful All Female band in music history! Go Go's lead the way for The Bangles and Vixen. Please react to the Go Go's "Vacation", "Head Over Heals" , "Get Up and Go". BTW the drummer is the legendary Gina Schock! Let's get it going with the Go Go's then hopefully move on to the other kick ass girl bands!! 😎🤘🏼🎸🥁🎤
I saw the Go Go's open up for The Police as one my first concert! Thry plstex every ding of thete not jisg a few g9f the lineup. THEY HAD TO! Sting aka Gordon Sumner was late flying into Long Island. His wife had just delivered their first baby earlier that day. England is 6 hours ahead of U.S., then ot switches seasons amd is 5 hrs ahead again. He was not going to cancel their show. He's like you rest & your work IS done honey BUT hang tough I'll be there! It absolutely kills me that so many ppl cancel their shows over virtually nothing these days. That was an amazing concert and a REALLY great present for my birthday from my brother. ❤😉❤😎🤘❤
I've missed a few postings as I've been in Hospital. I love these women! How Much More is my fav cos I lip synced it in grade 7 at school. Vacation is the Next one and of course Head Over Heels
@@holyspacemonkey not yet sweetheart. My mom is in there oh, so emotionally right now I'm extremely fragile we've both been through a lot. But thank you so much for asking and caring
Little known fact is that this is their second version of this song. It was originally done a bit slower when they were still considered an all girl punk rock band.
Such a great song! But the studio version is far better IMO. I don’t know why their channel labels this as the official music video. It’s not the one I remember from MTV. Still fun, though! Other must-listens from The Go-Go’s: “Head Over Heels” and “Vacation.” 💕
They were just inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!! YAY!!!
Yes! Not nearly enough Go-Go’s reactions out there. Vacation and Head Over Heels are two if their biggest hits.
Ummmm...what about Our Lips Are Sealed?
@@lessthanlaughing4373 that’s the very first one I did
@@JayveeTV I really like a song they did called Skidmarks On My Heart, but it is kind of silly.
I love their whole catalog as well as Belinda Carlisle when she went solo. Heaven is a Place on Earth, I Get Weak, Circle in the Sand.......
@@spirittammyk guitar talk love and drums. Search it. The other guitarist did a decent solo album...that was prolly the best song.
The Go-Go's!!♥️♥️♥️🎉🎉🎉
Could possibly be the #1 example of 80's music.
Who else thinks of "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" when this song plays?
Yes!
For sure! This one and Jackson's Somebody's Baby. Cameron had incredible taste in music in my humble opinion.
For me it's the Cars, moving in stereo
Somebody's Baby is the first song.
Or st trinians 2

Gotta love the 80s.,...such a wide variety of feel good music 🎶🎵😁
I always loved the Go Go’s and the fact that they played their own instruments. So cool to a 12 year old girl ❤️
4 Of the 5 women played instruments. Biggest-selling all-female pop group of all time. Next level musicians & Carlisle was a great lead vocalist.
You know..after watching these reactions from various people I realized just how many decades of EPIC music I've lived through and enjoyed. I was born in 61 so I've lived through almost 6 decades of musical wonder.
The go-go's, the bangles, expose' were 3 great girl groups of the 80's.
The Bangles
@@nancyp3303 definitely!
Dana says- Expose' were so underrated.
bannarama is another, however none of these mentioned groups did what The Go-Go's did.
Expose wasn’t even close to bangles or Go go’s
A great one! I also 💜 their song “Vacation”. 🏄♀️
They are on their way to The Rock and Roll HOF this year ♥️Vote for them now!
Their drummer was a beast. Probably their best musician and that's saying something because they all knew how to play.
You could not sit still for the Go Go's. Love the vibe they put out there.
One of my favorite songs. Totally 80's
Such a cool group. They had a B 52s sound that was really unique during the the early 80s.
Jane Weidlin, short dark hair with red scarf, on guitar played Joan of Arc in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure
She was also the singing telegram girl in Clue.
Noah's wife?
I played that album up and down! I still know every note.
I also like singer Belinda Carlisle‘s solo ballad Circles in the Sand.
"Leave A Light On" and "Heaven Is A Place On Earth" are two other great songs by Belinda Carlisle.

Head Over Heels live from Central Park in 2001...great live performance.
They redid this a few months ago, using Zoom, for the Today show, and they all still sound great! Worth checking out, at least on your own!
I saw them in concert in 1984 with Madness and David Bowie, they were the best of the line up!
Your energy in your reaction matched the energy of the song.
The lead singer of the Go Go's is Belinda Carlisle. She had several hits on her own after the Go Go's broke up. Try her big hit called Heaven Is A Place On Earth studio version.

This was always one those songs that made you want to jump and dance around your room.Just a really fun song!
They were so so much fun! I saw them in concert around this time.
This was a great all-girl band and was a lot of fun to see live back in the day! Another good band from this time is "Missing Persons"!
My favorate girl band is The Bangles either Manic Monday or Eternal Flame. I saw them perform about 7 Times
One of my favorite songs when I was teen. Friends and I would dance to this all the time.
The were my favorite and I played it over and over at 10. Great album!♥️
I wanted to learn to play the drums when I was a little girl. I even had a bugs bunny drum set. The Go Gos was the first time I had ever seen or noticed a female drummer. I thought that was so cool.
The Go Go’s really had a terrific sound
Now that you've heard Belinda Carlisle in the Go-Go's, you could check out her solo songs. Just search for her name and go with the popular ones.
Oh I absolutely love the GoGos soooo hoid. I have my first ever albums was beauty and the beat
Head over heals another good one from them
I saw them on their first national tour at the world's largest bar in Ft Worth. I had only seen videos so this was going to be live and didn't know what to expect. This was their opener to a packed house. All played their own instruments and sang. One of the best shows I've seen.
"Lust to Love" is their best tune.
There is no way NOT to have fun at a Go-Go’s concert. They themselves say “there’s something about when the 5 of us get together”. I’d love to be a fly on the wall during rehearsal
Love The Go-Go’s!
Find the studio version. Saw them live, and they’re better on vinyl.
This was the song that turned them into international superstars. For better or worse, it was also the song that pissed off a lot of their original fans because overnight they went from an underworld all-girl punk group to pop princesses. The studio version was longer than this quick live version.
Please react to "This Town", "Vacation", and "Head Over Heels." Thanks!
Vacation
THIS TOWN for sure
Still the ONLY all-girl band that wrote their own songs & played their own instruments to hit the top billboard charts & also only one to debut at #1 (super rare!).
Get up and Go and Fading Fast are two really good GoGo songs to review
Jay: "I've never worn 👠 heels but...

My first concert, the Go-Go's with A Flock of Seagulls. 9/22/82 West Palm Beach Auditorium.
Yeah go gos
they' did this song for quarantine and they sound great
They are so fun
My little sisters favorite band. And they partied just as hard the men's bands, stuff happened on the tour bus. Lots of stuff
ahh thanku!!!!
In this song you can really hear their punk roots. It is what made me decide they're really one of the (if not THE) first bubblegum punk bands
“Excuse me. Are those Bugle Boy’s your wearing?” Who remembers THAT?!? 😂
Who WORE them? 🙋🏼♀️😂
Had the Bugle Boy slacks with the paisley roll up leg bottoms.
@@lonnielongino798 Yup! I just had regular ones. But MAN does this bring back memories lol good times
Dear God you just brought out a memory that I haven't thought of in years. Haha forgot about Bugle Boys yes you had to roll them up.
I've missed a few postings as I've been in Hospital. I love these women! How Much More is my fav cos I lip synced it in grade 7 at school. Vacation is the Next one and of course Head Over Heels
I hope you’re feeling better!
@@holyspacemonkey not yet sweetheart. My mom is in there oh, so emotionally right now I'm extremely fragile we've both been through a lot. But thank you so much for asking and caring
Check out more of their video's. I saw them in person when I was a teenager, loved it !!! The led singer is Belinda Carlisle.
More and more Go-Gos!!!
“Head Over Heels” next please 🙏❤️🙏
I gave a good list time and see others gave the same songs. Love this song, brings back good memories
living and learning. great band
I think I still love Belinda Carlisle after all this time.....
That whole album was fun
Little known fact is that this is their second version of this song. It was originally done a bit slower when they were still considered an all girl punk rock band.
React to their songs Our Lips Are Sealed, Vacation and Head Over Heels please.
Oh, they got the beat!!!
You might be able to find a recent live performance of this on The Today Show. They still got it.
The little one jumping around wrote most of their songs
Jane Weidlin
Charlotte Caffey the lead guitarist wrote most of their songs
You should play the intro to "Fast times at Ridegmont High" for this song to really feel it.
YES!!
"The Last American Virgin" had a better soundtrack.
Totally!
As an older person, we grew up with amazing music. lol and r kids want even try to give a chance to. So it's cool that u will at least give it a whirl
Suggestion: the runaways.
The band where Joan Jett and Lita Ford began.
@@susiegines7314 yes indeed
The slits ,, typical girl
I was one of the legion that was in love with Belinda Carlisle back in the day.....
Thanks for doing this one! I wanted to be Belinda Carlisle soooo bad when I was a young girl 😍😍😍
Reminds me of Jr. High, lol!
Live is good but studio version rocks even more
yes reactors should always do studio versions - it is usually the best version; this one was too sped up
The guitar player with the long scarf down her back is now a dominatrix and ordained minister
Got to do some Belinda Carlisle. She is the lead singer. Lots of good solo songs as well
She is singervof Bangles
No Susana Hoffs is bangles singer
We always appreciate ‘flair’!!! lol.. yeah ... no Bobby socks and sneakers for miss Belinda....SASSY! 👠👠👠👠👅
Some of the best songs are short and sweet. Teenage Kicks, Night Boat to Cairo, Blitzkrieg Bop...
Another good one Jay
First all female group who wrote their own music to get a number one record for this song
Such a great song! But the studio version is far better IMO. I don’t know why their channel labels this as the official music video. It’s not the one I remember from MTV. Still fun, though! Other must-listens from The Go-Go’s: “Head Over Heels” and “Vacation.” 💕
This was the ish back in the day!!
Vacation from them
One of the first all girl Rock bands!
Go Go Go's! 🌎✌
