Kathy Valentine is such a sexy lady....stunning

Iconic legends who taught themselves how to be awesome. So glad I was old enough to watch their rise to stardom. Bad asses making great music.

I saw them back in the mid 80’s in Connecticut in their prime ! Awesome show .

This has always been a great, feel good song to listen to.

What a voice she was touched with talent.

These are all great women who paid their dues in rock and roll and found the success that they worked for. They fell out, then came back together and, in the end, still remained friends professionally and personally. And they still hold the record for a woman's group that attained their level of success with all original material they composed themselves. Long live the Go-Go's!

That’s always been one of my favourite songs but this is the first time I’ve seen a live version and it’s even better. What a great band!

Beautiful in the 80's and Gorgeous now. They sound amazing.

I dont care if you are now 61 years old now, Belinda you are still the most beautiful woman in the world to me💖💖💖

If Madonna, Donna Summer, the Bee Gees and ABBA can be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, then it's time that The GO-GO'S, The Runaways and Pat Benatar should be inducted!They've all earned it!

Back in 1981 shortly after the Go Go's recorded this music in studio C at A&M Records, I worked in the same studios with friends recording their first album. Andy Armer (my friend) was teaming with Herb Albert's nephew Randy. They had co-written Herb's #1 instrumental hit "Rise". Herb was selling them studio time for 50% of the going rate. I watched Herb lay down some tracks in another studio while I was there. It was great being young and at a place where memorial music was being made. I still have a pack of A&M matches. I used to go over to Marvin Gaye's house in Hidden Hills and play basketball with him and others, swim in his pool, play pool, kind gentle man. RIP Marvin. The 80's were a great time to be young and alive.

A performance for the ages. Pure joy!!!

Always wanted to see both the Go Go’s and Fun Boy Three perform it together

And today (5/12/21 they have been voted into the Hall of Fame

So when this song came out in 81, I was in the Navy. In those days, everyone was into AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Molly Hatchet, etc. Well, the moment I heard this song, I was hooked. The up-beat vibe and driving bass made it totally irresistible. Now, image in the Navy is EVERYTHING. No matter what, you absolutely MUST maintain that image of being a hard-as-nails, take-no-bullshit, hard-drinking/smoking/fighting hell-raiser or things get out of control pretty quickly, and I did a pretty good job at maintaining my image (I had to. I was only 20 at the time and a shop supervisor). Consequently, when I heard this song I knew I had to be REAL discrete when purchasing and listening to it. So come Christmas Eve, 1981, my roommate, one of the roughest, toughest, meanest, foulest-dispositioned third-class petty officers that ever wore the uniform was driving me over to Lindbergh Field (San Diego) for my flight home and Christmas leave when Our Lips Are Sealed came on the FM. Matt ROCKED OUT. When he mentioned what a great beat it had, I took a deep breath, debated momentarily whether I should open just a crack the vaulted door into my inner, most vulnerable self and said "Matt, I've got the tape at the top of my duffle bag. If you want it, I'll give it to you when we get to the airport", which I did. I still get a laugh at the thought of big ol', tough-as-nails Matt Smith (yeah, that really was his last name) getting off to this song.

Look at em still having fun. They were my guilty pleasure back in the 80s.

I only rediscovered the Go Go's and realise how great they are with so many great songs and like the Bangles, theres many similarities. Both bands have professional bass players who can add great texture and rhythm to the songs. Both have a lead singer that went on to their own successful solo careers and friction and breakups because of that and reform again to play again to very happy crowds. Each girl is so different with pocket rocket smiling Jane on rhythm guitar, Hip swaying Kathy on bass and Belinda belting the numbers out sometimes without shoes on! This is the era when great melodies were made and music was fun and its good we can still hear these bands as they were so a new generation can discover them too...

I love the Go Go's. Saw them in the 80's. They are unbelievable!!! Miss them so much. Belinda seems not to own a pair of shoes. Love that too!

Put the Go Go's on at any party anywhere any time, especially this song, and everyone in attendance will shout "yeah" and dance / rock out / try to get laid to it. I simply doesn't get better than that.

For those asking about the ‘extra’ love verse Belinda sings, it is... ‘Careless talk through paper walls We can't stop them, only laugh at them Spreading rumors so far from true Dragged up from the underworld, just like some precious pearl’ They’ve always done it live, it just wasn’t in the studio version.

Funny how I appreciate the Go-Go's much more now than I did back then, especially now that I know the story of their early formation. If anyone doesn't know, this band of chicks braved the rude, violent and often utterly disgusting British punk scene -- the same punk scene that terrified Johnny Rotten to the point he ran home from every show because they wanted to beat his ass. Belinda Carlisle in particular would leave the stage every night covered in spit just dripping off of her. They earned their street cred. Tough chicks, every last one of them. Rock on, Go-Go's, rock on.
