i was only 13 in 1981. not a girl - not yet a woman. i just loved singing this song. as i grew up i learned what the meaning was -- which caused me to embrace everla so much more. i can still be led to cry. at least now the tears are happy ones. it was an age of purity.
This is one of the greatest songs ever written and I can think of about a hundred songs this is better than. It should have been a number one hit. Why it wasn't I'll never know but come on -- My Sharona was better than this? Except for the guitar riff Sharona sucks. I'm just using that as an example.
the year was 1981, in a bronco, way off the ground, the girls loved it, then the dude says you got to hear the other side of the cassette, flamethrougher its got a killer drum solo, then it came on and wow, that was delicious, dont know if she did, she got drunk and started screaming nooooooooo dont through me thrhough that glass window.
This is a great song, I use to jam to it back in the day, discovered U Tube love all the old james they or we have posted, they don't write songs like this anymore. lovin it in AZ.
When I listen this song I remeber when I was alone after a disapoinment with my girl friend at 1982 I began to meet with Nancy and I was going to her home waking on the road I hard this song so I try to say what wonderfull those times but now I only would say remmber is to come back when I was thinking that she wa s an angel in blue good and nice song
this song had a video on MTV. it had an andy worhal style to it, with images of marilyn monroe. lots of color. it was o.k. damn, memories of the 80's. thank you jdpalberta.
@alejandroochoaglez im sorry but i doubt that its from mexico cause in the song it s sdays from chisabi bay and ive been there before and thats in northern quebec canada

Fawk This Song reminds me of Stony Rapids carnival In 2008:P It was really fun Me and some Freind's Dancin and Drinkin... After Dance as over haha We made a Fire outside in the boosh:L:L It was during March It Was Cold:S But was fun:P Would Love to have a Better one this year:P
I listened to this song back in the 80's and thought it was beautiful,bitter sweet - then later I lived in the tough sections of Vancouver and knew a number of working girls and the tragedy of their lives is a harsher,bleaker reality than most would ever experience let alone contemplate
Anyone know where to find the tab for this song...its bizarre, the only tab I've never been able to find on the internet, like it doesn't exist...sounds extremely easy to play
I was in Peabodys in VA BEACH with my best friend after hitch hiking from Maine. Looked for this song on the Juke Box. Time stands still. Great Song.............
una hermosa melodia que trae recuerdos a mi mente cuando era pequeño y soñaba tener una banda de rock mi banda viajera gracias jdpalberta si tienes algun videito de la melodia ponla favor que nos harias
esta cancion es de la csm, y si, esta dedicada a Marylin Monroe, me transporta a mi época de colegio y toda esa palomillada con mis patas: Alfonso "el doc", Julio, "pecho de gato" Elmer y "cofla" Lalo, a todos ellos mis respetos por siempre!
IMO, this is one the most under appreciated songs in rock history. It's simply outstanding and should be considered a classic. Thank you for posting this; been looking for it since I found You Tube.
This song reminds everyone of a girl from there past. Someone that had problems and for "what_ever" reason, things could'nt work out for them. Great song..J. Geils always rocked..Great Band.
omg can't belief rthis song is on here. I have looked for a long time for this one. Excellent song j. giles kicked ass back in the day!!!!! timeless classic
"And she never had dreams, so they never came true." Man, I love that song! So many great couplets! Glad to see that there are others who appreciate this great ballad! Freeze Frame, in general, is a fabulous album. Yes, many memories indeed.
i was only 13 in 1981. not a girl - not yet a woman. i just loved singing this song. as i grew up i learned what the meaning was -- which caused me to embrace everla so much more. i can still be led to cry. at least now the tears are happy ones. it was an age of purity.

The favorite song of the girls (way back then) in a club in Roch, NY when I was there. Made me fall in love too many times. Great lyrics and tune.
