After all these years, I still can't take my eyes off of Belinda.
And I agree with them both. They don't need to be validated by the hall of fame. They are awesome in my book and there's nothing like a Go Go's song to make you feel genuinely good inside. They will forever be a favorite of mine. And I have only 2.
When I was in 4th grade there was a girl who look exactly like Belinda Carlisle and we rode the bus together everyday , she had a same haircut and even talk like her I often wonder what would happened if I befriended her, who knows ?
I been in love with Charlotte since 1981
I fell in love with the go go's as a little girl & still love them as a 46 yr old woman. I thank each one of them for showing me that women could do anything! I still get so happy when I listen to beauty and the beat and vacation, I sing my heart out & the music means so much to me
.. takes me back to happy times. Thank u ladies, love all 5 of u!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Exactly...for me too!
❤️❤️ The Go Go’s ❤️❤️
Awesome interview, great questions. Love the documentary .... LONG LIVE THE GO-GO'S
Exactly I watched it last night on Showtime
No one cares about the Rock n roll hall of fame.. atleast not until their inducted... it is kind of a joke... put in like Pearl Jam and leave out the Sonics ... weak...
I think most have seen a few pics or know about Belindas involvement/connections w Darby & the Germs .. Lorna Dune Pat Smear etc .. I'm sure they popped in and out of other ill fated punk bands. I mean that's what you did.. .just like most of huge 70s acts were in 60s garage bands previously... anyway .. I love the Go Gos not cuz their gals ... its fun stripped down no nonsense rock n roll and not so poppy rock / surf rock / power pop / pop punk/post punk/punk...
I gotta watch this documentary... love music docs.. I mean I could watch a documentary about lamps and love it...much less music ...and its the friggin GO -GO's!!!! May they rock on 🤘!!! Much love....I love you Charlotte 😍
Love Belinda so much - such a remarkable talent and beauty
I bought all their vinyl LPs when they first came out in 1978 - 1985 and then bought their greatest hits CD and their music was and still is fabulous because "They still go the beat."
"You got the beat, you got the beat...Yeah!" I was in high school, freshman, when I heard "We Got The Beat" and I saw all these good looking women. I was sold as a 14 year old boy.
the documentary is soooooooo good. what an amazing story we never knew!
I love the TALK SHOW album. LOVE IT A LOT
It's my favourite Go Go's album. It is a masterpiece for me. I know personally they were going through difficult times, but maybe that is why the Album is so good. I struggle to find a bad song on that album as they all have some merits.
"Talk Show" is my favorite GoGo's album, definitely
@@clucka I love it as well.
I honestly don't think there are any stinkers on there. It's an excellent record.
Belinda and Charlotte, I’m glad that you guys, along with Gina, Kathy, and Jane, are all alive and healthy despite these circumstances during Covid
The Go-Go's Absolutely Should Be In The Hall!!!
Yes and Belinda should show up, at least for their millions of fans who have wanted them in the Hall of Fame for a long time. It would be a disappointment if she didn't show up. Come on now...
Marvelous interview. I remember my Dad came in my room when I was listening to Talk Show and tried to talk to me about sex when I was 15 then. lol. So many wild memories to the present, attesting to me enjoying their music. It's endless, priceless and forever. I love covering what tunes I can of theirs. I'm almost 50 now & I don't care anymore what other Rock peers say about my interests in The Go Go's.
I just watched the doc! Glued to the tube! You gals are the very best. My wish is for your icing on the cake! R&RHOF!!! Grew up with your musical taste on the East coast. I've always held you dear to my heart. Still crushing on the bass player I want to be your Valentine!!!!
I had "Our Lips Are Sealed" stuck in my head from a supermarket for the last two days and I had to listen to the song, because all these years, I didn't know the complete lyrics. So, I ended up here and this is so cool. Though I was into the metal scene, The Go Go's brings me back to my high school days 84-87. Man, my hormones were racing when I heard them, like Sirens.
LOVE The Go-Go's! Always have, always will! You ladies rock💜
I just love the openness of their talking...
Fabulous interview. The interviewer (sorry, I missed her name) is a fan.
I love that they never lost the punk attitude.
These ladies look great too.
Lyndsey Parker. She's great.
OFR ..Thank you. She did a great job and didn’t ask stupid questions of them.
I still have my punk attitude! We are a small blip in time & if you were part of it, it stays with you. 💩💙
I can't wait till tomorrow to see the Documentary and hear there New song. It sounds awesome, my Girls still Rock!!!
Excellent documentary I seen it three times and I'm a person of color
@@1990758 LoL. What does being black or any other race have anything to do with liking this documentary. That's like saying black people only listen to rap music. Trust me, I mean no disrespect. Just thought that was funny.
@@rickyparrilla2426 because most black people did not listen to The Go-Go's when rap music first came out most white people hate the music is that good enough for you
This interview never gets old. I love liustening to them speak trying ot work it in to a lesson plan.
Love these ladies sooooo much!✌🏻& ❤️ From a 28yo second gen Go Gos fan.
Fan. of the Go Go's since the 80's. They mos def should be in the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame....
Lyndsey Parker is always so great at interviewing. She always asks the questions I’m wondering about. After just watching the doc, I too was curious why only Charlotte’s drug use was the focus when Belinda has recently been discussing a THIRTY YEAR cocaine addiction. And I was thinking, “Please please ask about ‘Head Over Heels.’” Not just my fave Go-Gos song but one of my fave songs of all time (my god the bass and drums on that tune-all then the piano). And just popped up-R&R HoF. Bet Belinda goes, as she should.
The Go-Gos were my first music memory. LOVE, LOVE. The doc was well-done!
Congratulations on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction; Class of ‘21. A long time coming.
Excellent interview!! I love when they're candid
Great interview. Well done.
You women have nothing to worry about; anybody who doesn't want you in the RHOF is a MORON. Everything you said about your band is true. You have so much to be proud of. I recently came across a performance you did at "Pine Knob" about 15 years ago here on CZcams. It rocks the balls off half the live shows of other bands I've seen. Fully self-contained, no backup singers or gimmicks, just a killer drummer, solid bassist, two loud guitars, a keyboard when you want it and the shining maidenhead lead singer with the smiling, fearless voice that everyone recognizes right away. Please, for the love of God and in the name of all that which does not suck, STAY together! If the Rolling Stones can do it, SO CAN YOU! And you ARE the female Rolling Stones, you must realize that.
This date is my Father's bday...he had to listen to them all.day.long! My Youth and I was 11 when it all started, recording engineer degree now! All from this.
It literally took me 5 minutes to realize that that was Belinda 😮
THE GOGOS ARE BACK!!!!
I'm crushing on Charlotte. It changes depending on the day of the week. Yesterday it was Jane 🥰
Belinda my role model , inspiration and my hero. I love you
can't wait for the documentary 💖
Love this interview
Great interview and a great companion piece to the documentary. Thanks!
I love Charlotte!!
The absolute best Go Go interview!!!
Yup, they are in MY Hall of Fame too!!
Really good interview, thank you !
I love Charlotte ❤️❤️💝
"Turn to You" on the "Talk Show" CD is my favorite Go Go's single (I think...) ;)
Charlotte is a doll. Nuff said.
No mention of God Bless the Go Gos, which to me is their best album.
Love. This!
Induct these talented ALL female musicians song writers into ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME!! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸❤ Friendly reminder that when you say ignorant things about women in power, they don't hear you.
But your daughters do. Your mother does. Your sisters hear you. Your nieces hear you too. 😘
Great interview!
Great interview.The RHOF always seemed a strange thing,like being put in a museum.
The Go Go's are too rock'n'roll for the RHOF.
I LOVE YOU Ladies, may God bless the GOGOs and lord keep your souls please?
I love the chip on the shoulder they still have about Rock and Roll HOF....f&*(& 'em! They don't deserve you. You girls are so inspiring.
Nice interview 👍
Belinda and Gina may not have written the music, but playing out live taxes a singer and drummer more than everybody else. Hard work is hard work, be it mental or physical. Each person was equally essential.
Technocrats have no idea how to handle artists. All they can focus on is profit. Fans don't need a band to saturate them. Taking a little time off would've been good for everyone... except the greedmeisters.
Clearly you have probably never played in a band, actually sat down and put pen to paper to write a song (let alone a catalog of tunes), or are just horribly mistaken. First off, writing music/lyrics is no simple task. It's not as if one can just turn on and off the creative impulse with the flick of a switch. It's either there or not, and if it's not there at that instant in time then the really gifted songwriter has to be able to find within themselves the creative energy/gestalt to arouse and bring forth that inspiration. It's even more difficult when one is simultaneously confronted with deadlines/album release dates and the record company's fire breathing dragon, corporate scumbag, money grubbing swine is breathing down your neck threatening you with all sorts of crap and breach of contract lawsuits. To top it off the successful songwriter is expected to turn out hits and not filler crap. High quality songs are very personal creations of art that mean the same to the writer as paintings mean to painters or books/poetry mean to authors. They don't materialize out of thin air but require commitment, time, blood, sweat, and tears. Sometimes a song comes out of the creative ether easily, while other times it must be drawn out grudgingly, painfully, and slowly. As such those who write the songs/music are deserving of an extra share of the profits in recognition of the time, effort, pain, and frustration that goes into the creation of the art work. Secondly, if you think it's so easy to play guitar (lead or rhythm, but especially lead) or keyboards, simultaneously singing (either lead vocal or harmony), while performing in an animated fashion (i.e. giving a lively, really into it, jumping around the stage, enthusiastic rock 'n roll god performance whether you're into that night or not), and that it's not as hard as just singing or drumming, than you've either never been in a band or at least not a very good one I'd venture to presume. You are correct though that for a band to sound tight each member of the band is essential. However, there's a lot that goes on long before a band goes on stage or goes into the studio to record and I'm not just talking about rehearsing...that is a given and a necessary commitment for all band members if they expect to advance the band and tighten up. Writing the songs for the band repertoire takes time and while the other band members are out
doing whatever they want to do, the writer is stuck in a room with a guitar or keyboard, a pen, and a piece of paper spending hours trying to create a piece of art. They're entitled to be compensated and recognized for this.
@@0zoneTherapyW0rks "technocrats"? Usually reserved for Zuckerberg etal, how exactly do technocrats handle artist?
To your point, Neil Peart, drummer of Rush said that drummer is the hardest job and singer is the worst job.
Belinda looks good but a lot different than she did in high school. She has always been pretty. Gotta admire her success. She worked hard to get there.
Saw the doc. Great history lesson. Next stop RR Hall of Fame!
Yes, we could debate all day about RRHOF's authenticity and choices but honestly this band truly deserves to be in there. MIC DROP!
BRAVO!!!! OMG. Awesome interview! I just stumbled across it. Was having a "girl crush, Belinda/Go-go"s marathon". But who are YOU? How can I watch more of your interviews?? Im a music;/biography/interview freak. My name is Tracy from Detroit. Thanks for brightening my day!
🤘🤘
The Hall of Fame put them on the ballot this year. Unfortunately, they currently are not getting enough votes to qualify. Last I looked they were in 7th and the top 5 can make it. Their fans need to vote for them to qualify!
Beauty and the Beat (I think that I still have that album (in CD form)); the Greatest Hits one too. The doc showed their early unrefined Punk era, before going into New Wave & Pop music genres - much like Blondie (Disco, Hip Hop, Reggae, EDM) and the Beastie Boys first incarnations.. the latter had changed their sound to the Golden Era of Rap.... they were managed by Miles Copeland, a brother of Stewart, from some popular (veteran (English) ) Rock group called "The Police" (along with Sting and Andy Summers).
22:25 Belinda: "I looked like a baby Wayne Newton!" LOL that's what I thought when the video came out!
Looks like pink mother .
The Go-Go's belong in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.Tony
Induct these talented musicians into the ROCK AND HALL OF FAME!! Only ALL Female Band, Song writers, paved the the way for punk bands like "Greenday" First female band to have #1 Album!! 🎵❤ Nominate for Kennedy Center Honors!!
37:30 Now having Debbie Harry do the deed would be a treat!
Florence Pugh was magnificent in “Midsommar”. She would make a great Belinda Carlisle. Chloe could maybe pull it off too
The interviewer. Your eye's are amazingly memorable. Who is she?
Back in the 70s/ early 80s. Nearly every artist put out an album a year. That is how it was done then. And an album a year with HITS on it. That took work and talent. Arists would put out and album. then tour, work on another album while on tour, finish album after tour, release new album, start another tour, and work on another album. GRUELING WORK. AND THE PAY SUCKED.
That's horrible! But I guess it was in the contract. But maybe executives want to get as much as possible before they broke up. Cause bands didn't last that long. Still not a healthy work environment.
Belinda has apparently changed her tune on the "Turn to You" video since writing her book.
Induct these ladies.Tony
Congratulations on your sobriety!
Thanks for being open on your recovery. Good interviewer
I hope they repolish that Mercenary song because it is so powerful.
Charlotte had enough street cred just from warming up for the Dickies.
the way they are now, Belinda looks a bit like Carla Gugino, Charlotte like Amy Ryan, Jane like Winona Ryder, Kathy like Catherine Keener, and I can't think anyone for Gina hahaha
Since the doc came out, I've been gliding from listening and watching the GoGos to spreading info about the Technocracy/medical tyranny takeover, patriarchy's last gasp. Surreal times...
Florence Pugh would make a great Belinda, how about Rooney Mara for Charlotte?
Belinda's a badass, the rock and roll hall of fame is ridiculous
Induct these talented musicians into the ROCK AND HALL OF FAME!! Only ALL Female Band, Song writers Paved the way for punk bands like Greenday, Avril Levine, No Doubt. First & ONLY #1 Album All Female Band. They weren't even listed in Top 40 Punk Bands Rolling Stone Magazine. Sinful! C'mon Kennedy Center Honors!
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is a sham...
BillyBongwaters,
It’s an f’in travesty!
It really is a sham that The Go-Gos are not in the Hall of Fame...or Pat Benatar or B-52s or Eurythmics. Every single year, I'm shocked at all the nobodies that are nominated.
Dear, Go'Go's, My introduction is probably incorrect. I apologize. I had the chance to get a good education and I did okay but nothing amazing. But ,,,, You ladies came from ( well, actually, I do not know each and every story). But as a female back in my day. Oh, my goodness, you will never comprehend , or maybe you do. My friends and I saw you all at an Ohio Amusement park called " KingsIsland" The name has changed . I Have not been to the Cleveland rockandroll. But we love Kellies Island. I truly would be proud to see anything about you ladies. I have my one only album hidden so it would be safe. If you would like my album I would gladly give it to you all. No one else in family would really understand. Belinda, Please rethink think the Oh. Rock and Roll. Hint, Hint make them include Jimmy Buffet and the Coral Reefer Band Just a thought. How ever thank for all the music and the exercise. I think because you ladies, I made better choices in men. Though however, I am not perfect. But just truly an ole fan. I am 60 yrs. now. But you ladies make me groove. Love to each and everyone of ya.
Natalie Maines as Belinda in The GoGo’s Movie! Xo
Certainly Heart was fronted by Ann and Nancy. And they did most of the writing. I can't imagine record companies saying: well the rhythm section and lead guitar are guys..... Ok let's sign them. But I suppose it took awhile for record companies to take the Go Go's seriously.
I just had a dislike because the interviewer should have known about the Grammys incident in that they were nominated and who they lost to I mean that’s just you do your homework before you do an interview
Actress Christin Bell would be a good choice to play Belinda. She also has a great voice. Blonde beautiful has your hair style.
She's a great actress, but Kristen Bell at 40 is not going to be the right age range for a Go-Gos biopic
Even if Belinda changes her mind about a future induction, she's still bad-ass. Bad-ass = PUNK.
Love the Go-Gos, but L.A. had some anger going on at the time.X wrote and sang about it!
I really want to know which Go Go threw up on Miles Copeland. Spill the tea ladies.
Ace of Cups had the same problem. Nobody would sign them even though they were amazing. This was before even Fanny. God I wish they'd been signed...
A bought a beautiful Egyptian dress on a cruise put it in . It was country looking from waist down. Old maid hips. Shirley temple got sewing kit for Christmas I bought redesign the bottom
Black girl skirt bottom me vogue bottom dress. No where to where that.
is it me or does Lyndsey Parker.Looks like Kathy Valentine.Could be her daughter.
Aerosmith changed when they all got sober
Miles bought Raymond burs house and the gay stories along with it. I was part of the trio Seduce and signed under IRS too. Meeting Belinda In Person in or about that 85-86 OMG, you couldn't see anyone hotter. We did decline of the Western civilization 86-87. I met her a few times around then. The Judd mom was a close 2nd. Boy, if the walls in the Hollywood Roosevelt could talk. Vegas wouldn't be sin city. It be Disney
"you're all women, so we'll pass" is the summation of why it took so long for the Gogos to get a record deal.
The fact is that the record companies were all pure crap in the 70s. Radio was used to convince the lemmings what records to buy, and the crappier the band, the less money they would get per record, thus the more profit for the record company. I remember when the radio stations finally started playing the Gogos and I was like "what is this??? It's different, it's... it's... GOOD".
Belinda’s a very smart woman but she’s wrong about there being any stinkers on “Talk Show.” 😂
@David Joseph Yeah. Same
David Joseph it’s really a perfect album. Beauty and the Beat gets all the accolades but Talk Show is their crowning achievement.
I’m not much of a fan of it. There are some good songs on there, but most don’t sound like The Go-Go’s to me.
I wish they’d done more than 3 new songs on Return to the Valley of The Go-Go’s.
For me BATB is number one with God Bless a close second. I love that album. King of Confusion and I Think I Need Sleep too.
@@christine3043 I will have to dig out my copy of Return to the Valley of The Go-Go’s. - Time to revisit this.
@@christine3043 The 3 songs they did for "Return" were fantastic. I wish they'd have done a full album's worth of material around that time. The only album I had a hard time getting into was GBTGG, though I do love "Unforgiven," "Apology," "Throw Me a Curve," and "I Think I Need Sleep."
Why did Belinda do that to her face...
Oh they lost to Sheena Easton as best new artist at the Grammys. Well... i also like Sheena Easton :-)
Bio-pics are risky. The worst one being the Def Leppard movie. So many inaccuracies and bad wigs. We don't want to see Florence Pugh in a bad wig.
Why won't they answer the question lol. Why did ozzy throw her out? What did she do? We want specifics its obviously a good story.. gotta dig deeper when charlotte goes off the rails not answering the questions lol
Has anyone else noticed how the all woman band Sleeter Keeney seems to think they’re pioneers? Carrrie Brownstein takes herself so seriously, but i’m not impressed with that band. The Gogo’s were legit talented and skilled among pop bands regardless of gender
I can kinda see it. Go-Go's release unexpected hit album,release only 2 singles,and are rushed into two albums one after the next and stop promoting the first one after a Grammy loss. Micheal Jackson,however, did Thriller in 1982 and pretty much milked that cow for a good 5 years before the next album ever saw the light of day. Sounds like a label goof to me,somewhere down the line. Or someone wanted them to fail. Right? Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame...
Yesterday’s California Gurls. Katy Perry will be in this position 30 years from now.
katy who
In all fairness Goldie & The Gingerbreads, The Pleasure Seekers, Fanny, The Runaways, and The Slits should be inducted to the RNRHOF then The Go-Gos. Who def deserve it as well.
Yeah, screw the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. You DON'T need them to be validated.
They will get inducted eventually!
Stop saying "You know" so much!
This is L.A. all I wanna do IS HAVE SOME FUN..totally.
These ladies were hard drinking, drug using partying chicks.....they made sailors with a 3 day leave after a horrific war battle look like a boy scout meeting!!
