WOW! I must say that the 80's is by far the best amazing decade ever for music, movies, television shows, cartoons, toys and amusement stuff. The nintendo and atari were awesome back then. This song is so full of energy and makes you wanna dance. For all of you that have no idea what you missed. Listen, reminisce in your mind, the great times we all had in the 80's. Thanks for making me feel like I'm in high school again. This song is absolutely a impressive phenomenal timeless classic.
This is one of my favorite songs of that period, and it's so incredibly underrated. Obviously, if you're viewing this video, you know about the song. I wish more did. I even had this down on my DJ list to play when I first got married a few years ago! Thanks to the person who uploaded this for us to enjoy.
I love seeing Sparks' actual live performances (as opposed to playback TV performances) from all the different eras - they have always played their newest album a lot, just another reason why I like and respect Sparks so much. Thanks for uploading!
3:57 drumstick gets away from drummer. Drummer picks up another one without missing a beat. What a pro! David Kendrick brings his *A* game with energy.
The line that was blown leading to the awkward silence was when Jane sang the opening line "I want to go to cool places with you", leading Russell to sing "I want to to go to cool places tonight." The lines are reversed in that verse, so Russell singing "I want to go to cool places with you" rhymes with "a coffee shop with toast, coffee, and juice".
John stitt, I would surely get my self killed by trying, but most female artists on stage wear high heals. Just have a look at the granny of rock 'n' roll, Tina Turner! And so on and on...
Was at this show. Jane was so so HOT!!! Went to several of these shows at Perkins Palace in Pasadena for Rock and Roll tonight. Wish I could find more videos from that TV series. Anyone know if there is an archive somewhere of "Rock and Roll tonight" shows?
Wow did they jump the shark @3:20 LOL I was banging the bass players (Less bohem) niece, so I went to all these concerts, and got backstage! Russel's house parties were epic, he lived off of I believe it was Laurel Canyon. I found out later a girlfriend of mine use to break into his house when he was gone. And her, and her friend would go in Russel's closet, and try on all his concert clothing! LOL
They didn't jump the shark. Jane blew the line. She was supposed to sing "I want to go to cool places tonight", with Russ singing "I want to take you cool places with you." "And after that we'll slip out for a bite." "A coffee shop with toast, coffee and juice." She sang the first verse, "I want to go to cool places with you", and Russ sang "I want to go to cool places tonight," and she realized she couldn't sing the next line and repeat the first verse so she froze. Russ saved it, as Ron looked on (in his bathrobe no less) with a stunned look on his face.
Sorry hun. I'm a girl. I don't think Russell would go through YT comments to find an obscure comment you made a year ago. I only found your comment because I've been downloading all of Sparks's videos.
Sparks crticisized early 80's American youth with that 1983 album but Americans didn't get it as always. They are the real geniouses and critics of our time.
Bravo! Very nice New Wave tune! I like Jane's hair like this-she's way cute. (although my 80's cyber-heart still belongs to Nena) BTW, he should have said "female OF the species")
Here in Sept 2020.Friggin amazing.Any guy that doesn't love her,your gay.Love Ron in a nightgown. Lol.BTW..That bass line,they got that from The Moody Blues Gemini Dreams 1981..Great song.She is SO DANG HOT
She was hot, but I happened to be sitting by Belinda at an Elton John concert at the Forum in the 80's after she started working out and losing weight, And she looked pretty Damn hot then!
Ron Mael made some strange faces normally, but the look on his face when Jane blows the line in the second verse is priceless!
Jane was drop dead gorgeous in the 1980s
Jane Wiedlin was a little dish!
She still is!
Was?
Indeed!
Jane is a Hottie always was and is.
Still is, damn it!
Perkin's Palace in Pasadena. And no security, those were the fun 80's!

Jane Wiedlin in that dress, damn! I forgot how hot she was back in the day

Jane is F-I-N-E. Good lord.
I played tis 45 at a teen dance in the 80s and the dance floor emptied,but I always liked it!

Nice catch 🤩
No lip synching hear gang, all live, and YES Jane looks insanely hot! Dang! I miss the 80s :[
Heard this song every hour just about in high school
Great video. Jane Weidlin in 1983 = Cute and Adorable.
06/2019 checking in. Sparks were ahead of their time still love this . Jane was/is amazing!!!
That Jane is an 80's babe!!!😍 I like her dance moves too.
Man, I haven't seen this performance in 27 years!

Such fun memories. Jane is great. Great going Sparks. So many years of fun music. Can't beat the 80's.
Wireless microphones. State of the Art in 1983.
This song is an icon from teh 80's!
Come on, let's party like is 1986-89!!!!
Best years ever!!!!!!!
The bassist and drummer here were Gleaming Spires. You may know their song "Are You Ready for the Sex Girls" from Revenge of the Nerds.
Jane's amazing. Thanks for posting this.
THUMBS UP IF YOU ARE OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THE GO-GO'S ON THE COVER OF ROLLING STONES ... IN THEIR UNDERWEAR!!!
they look like they are having sooo much fun
Saw this when it aired back in 83! I was disappointed that they didn't dance with the Baby! LOL!! Great Band!! Great Set!!
Ooof.... I love that wagon she's pulling.
Used to play this on college radio, back then. Good times, thanks...
She did that whole live performance in high heels.
John stitt, I would surely get my self killed by trying, but most female artists on stage wear high heals. Just have a look at the granny of rock 'n' roll, Tina Turner! And so on and on...
I still love this song.
Ron cool outfit 😂🎉
Was at this show. Jane was so so HOT!!! Went to several of these shows at Perkins Palace in Pasadena for Rock and Roll tonight. Wish I could find more videos from that TV series. Anyone know if there is an archive somewhere of "Rock and Roll tonight" shows?
She's a great dancer. Such a change for the all guy band. They even kissed on the video. So cute!
The New Wave kick-dance is the only way to dance to this song.
Jane
Wiedlin =
🎶BLOW UP - HOT CHIHUAHUA!!!!!🎶
🤌🥔👁️🍅🍅🏒🚨🏒🤌

+gahloot I would love to hear about those house parties, if you wouldn't mind sharing with me of course!
I will later, just remind me!
That is unless your Russel in disguise?
Sorry hun. I'm a girl. I don't think Russell would go through YT comments to find an obscure comment you made a year ago. I only found your comment because I've been downloading all of Sparks's videos.
LOVE that perm on Jane!
Jane looks great in that dress!.............Ron looks great in that Bathrobe!
Hey, did they also perform "Lucky Me Lucky You" in this concert? Another great duet with Wiedlin.
My vote for best Sparks band.
The 80s..Yeah.Anyone here from 2020??
Michael Thomas Yup, just paying a visit to my youth...😎
Jane is f'n cool
Sparks crticisized early 80's American youth with that 1983 album but Americans didn't get it as always. They are the real geniouses and critics of our time.
I saw Sparks live in 1983, at some college. I would have been 13-14. No Jane Wiedline as I recall...
They sing very well together.
Quick, get Ron some coffee and the Sunday paper.
Ron sporting his best bathrobe for the occasion...
80s dancing. Say no more.
Wow! Anything hotter than Jane signing/dancing!!!!!
Not that I can think of!
I saw sparks open for Rick Springfield in 1983. My very first concert at 13. I couldn’t wait for sparks to get off the stage. They stunk.
My friends were cooler
Me Love Jane!!! Grrrrrrr!
"I wanna go to cool places with you...I wanna take you cool places tonight."
Love Ron's dressing gown!
Gawd Jane is such a cutie beautiful woman
I like this performance. I like Jane.
Cool times even!
Bravo! Very nice New Wave tune! I like Jane's hair like this-she's way cute. (although my 80's cyber-heart still belongs to Nena) BTW, he should have said "female OF the species")
Saw them on Grad nite summer '83 Six Flags Ca. Awesome night. In my head though they played a slow song/ballad. How many songs did they do together???
They also sang Lucky Me, Lucky You
cool song
Interesting seeing her with more hair!!! Gaw-juss!!!
Here in Sept 2020.Friggin amazing.Any guy that doesn't love her,your gay.Love Ron in a nightgown. Lol.BTW..That bass line,they got that from The Moody Blues Gemini Dreams 1981..Great song.She is SO DANG HOT
Damn! Jane Weidlin was hot back in the day.
Nothing hotter than an American cutie with lots of talent dancing in a hot dress.....
I remember Sparks, but probably most people don't but everyone knows who the Go Gos were.
That's some bad dancing!
That's how we danced back them days....look at Dancing in the Dark video as well...same example lol
Guess you meant Ron's zombie like steps😂
Mmmmm I want Jane... Dang! She was a Hottie! She was my favorite Go Go's gal and still is..
Not to mention still a hottie!
If ur wondering why the collab. He was doing her.
Look out Belinda here comes JANE she is so cool I had no idea how HOT she looks
Not as young... but she still is! ;)
Sorry Belinda, Jane was the hottest Go Go.
She was hot, but I happened to be sitting by Belinda at an Elton John concert at the Forum in the 80's after she started working out and losing weight, And she looked pretty Damn hot then!
Duh
Nah she's cute and weird but Belinda is a babe!
Belinda was starting out but the she didn't take care of herself.
I am a Gina Schock fan myself
Jane weidilin missed her part "Then we'll stay till 5 pm" she forgot to say that.
Girl crush on Jane.
Janes a sweetie
I thought that baby was gong to get kicked off stage when they ran down the catwalk bit
What baby?
Jane was sporting a tight caboose in those days.
Jane: total babe
Then and now!
What a fun performance (even if Jane does keep muffing her cues)!
I like how long her hair was...😉
you could hurt your hand spanking that!
I think that dude learned how to dance from Molly Ringwald in the breakfast club.
не хочу никого обидеть!! Но эта девушка не она!!! Которая была на первых концертах это Просто Классс!!! Я даже в Нее Влюбился!!! Эта не очем.........(
What the hell is a toddler doing on the catwalk at a rock concert???
Someone had to say it 👌🏾
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
this is such a silly song even tho im a jane fan.
All keyboardists should sport ratty bathrobes.
@scottvska She was sooo f-ing cute, glad I never met here!
для меня они круче чем битлы
Russell's Wham 'dance moves'..definitely are not 'cooL'.....
Cantaba bonito esta chata...nada que envidiarle a Belinda...buen duo
