Much respect.
Great songs to sing and play to.
Must have spent hundreds of dollars there by 1983!
I actually did the stinger tag that they used for their ads around then.
MAGICAL
I've always loved them and always will. They were one of the first girl bands and really paved the way.
America is sliding towards a dictatorship and you promote the Go-Go’s? Good grief.
Enough already!

Apparently Gardner became a dental hygienist. That's quite a career change!
Seriously?
Pop punk, maybe.
Maybe.

It's a weapon
Which we must use
In our defense
Silence
Spreading rumors
So far from true
Dragged up from the underworld
Just like some precious pearl

never..mind…
Their music was fantastic.
Their look defined a generation.
And, at parties, every 80s girl danced like Belinda Carlisle.
Legends.
in so many ways ….
Can anyone spare some Prozac?
"Our lips are sealed"
This was one of the great songs of the 80s in a world where women were just getting their sea legs.
