What a hidden gem of pop music. The Plimsouls were awesome; I saw them many times live in So Cal in the early 80's. They captured lightning in a bottle

I became aware of them not long after valley girl came out but i was 13. Not much chance of going clubbing in LA at that age. I was VERY fortunate to catch a show with all orig guys at Mcabes guitar shop in santa monica in 94'. I still think about that show now and again. Miss these guys and the world they came from

This song is the only reason 'Valley Girl' (1983) means so much to me. Me, and my friends have some great memories to this song in the late 80's. Forever a staple in my life.

Peter Case , one of the greatest song writers of all Time , right up there with Dylan , Lennon , Young , and all of them , the Plimsouls , should have been as big as the Stones , such a underrated Band ,

The whole record is this good. It's a perfect album. I mean CD ; )

Brother Brentley - Dug the comment. I graduated high school in 83 in So Cal. This was one of the most impactful, consequential decades of music ever and I lived it to the max. We tried to see everyone possible in OC and LA. Bands like The Jazz butcher, Echo and the Bunnymen, MIdnight Oil, The Chamelians UK, Plimsolls, The Jam, on and on and on. Great times, clothes, and shoes, TOTALLY. Shoes and hair were it man. We use to spend 30 minutes drinking beer just doing our hair before we went out. Girls, parties, all of it. Yes, now I am 54 and see the time in my face and get those moments where I miss those days but know we can't go back. It stings sometimes. These songs are like a lens into that great era and these songs are like a time machine to those memories, struggles and great times. Look to peace in knowing that all of this is an illusion. We are safe forever no matter what. The past is gone and the future isn't here and right now we are safe. And in the meantime a song like this or maybe 'Oblivious' by Aztec Camera or 'My ever Changing Moods' by The Style Council sure feels good. Godspeed brother.......

How bout that "twangy" guitar playing by Eddie Muñoz! A Texas boy if I remember correctly. He was the Plimsouls "secret" weapon. Always tasty playing and never wasted a note. I could listen to his guitar playing all night. Oh wait, I just did lol!

My cousin Pat used to work at a club "The Starwood" out in LA. I live in NJ but I also lived in LA for a bunch of years. Anyway, Pat always used to talk about this great band, the Plimsouls that would play at the Starwood back in the day. I eventually moved back to Jersey full time. About a year ago, I was on my front lawn and one of the neighbors passed by with his wife and we got to talking. He mentioned he lived in LA and I told him I did too years ago, and we talked about some of the old clubs and I mentioned the Starwood where my cousin worked. Then he told me he used to play there a lot with his band. I asked the name of his band and he said the Plimsouls!! Long story short, my neighbor less than a block away, here in Toms River NJ is freaking Eddie Muñoz!

I first heard this song in 1983 on Valley Girl and loved it. Heard it again on One Tree Hill season 4 episode 17 and my heart melted. It took me right back into the warm and loving arms of the 80's. Thank you Mark Schwan for such an awesome TV series and song choices.

I knew a record store clerk that got to see these legends at a house party back in the 80s.

I was lucky enough to interview that guy for a magazine 20 years ago. I still think about some of things he said. He's a true visionary.

GREAT song by a GREAT largely unrecognized band - Dave the pond guy I agree - WAYYY ahead of their time -saw them in LA once or twice in 81-82.

SOOOOOOOO Underrated!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Valley Girl!!

It was great to be a teen when this came out. I loved the Plimsouls so much that on a Saturday in the summer of ‘83 I bought a ticket to the matinee showing of Valley Girl and then stayed after for both the early and late evening showings as well. And then still went again later in the week another two times after that. That was the only way to hear those songs because there was no soundtrack album and the new Plimsouls album wouldn’t be out for months.

Gorgeous song!

Right now I'm drunk I know but they should have been huge.

Nice! Thanks for sharing!

This song belongs in a dark, smokey club.

My father turned me on to this band whén i was younger and i hated them... Fast forward until i started playing music and started appreciating music this band always has at least 2 songs on any playlist. Definitely underrated and unappreciated group.. Should have been bigger than they were.

YES!

Never morirá 💘

So good live.

I first heard this song on the movie valley girl, that starred Nicolas Cage for the first time. Since then, the oldest story in the world, is one of my all-time favorites when it comes to cool ass music I'd seen the plimsouls play dozens of timesin and around the Los Angeles scene in the late 70s early 80s. But this song, will go down in my brain history, forever and ever. By the way, I have broken probably 30 or 40 cherries to this song, get down b******..........

Our musicians could write a bridge, and people were calmer and smarter! You really could go for your dreams back then. There wasn't 10 billion people on the planet! There was only 3 channels on the TV and no internet or black Webb! We had Coleco with "donkey Kong!" And the president was an asshole back then to!
