  • LOVE it! Looks like they had so much fun making it as well!

  • whoa belinda looks like a guy in this!

  • WHAT?

  • Talk Show was a bittersweet album, in that it was easily the best of the first three, while Belinda and Charlotte nearly destroyed themselves with their bad habits.

  • that's the prettiest Kathys ever looked. She should always wear a wig

  • This song is like a trip back to 1964 with the girls' huge hairdos and the band's avart garde look. Another high energy song by these talented ladies. It makes you want to get on the floor and do the Twist or the Pony or the Mashed Potato.

  • This video looks like we've stepped back into 1964 with the massive bouffant hairdos on the girls and the avant garde hair of the "boy band". The Go-Gos made good old-fashioned FUN music. The best part about it was that they always LOOKED like the totally enjoyed what they were doing. Energetic and fun. Thanks!

  • wow Im old I remember this way cool Im a teen again

  • Gina looks so pretty dressed as a girl, he,he... and Jane looks like Winona Ryder when she´s dressed as a girl too. The video is so funny.!

  • I think this was the very first music video I ever saw when I was 7 years old in early 1984. Bring back memories.

  • So if Leonardo dressed in drag would he look like Belinda?

  • AWESOME video!! Thanx - I haven't seen this in about 25 years!!

  • one of their best singles

  • Kathy looks like Kathleen Hanna in this video. cute.

  • This is the video where all the GoGos in the band, save for Gina Schock, dressed up as guys and Gina dressed up as a girl drummer, and on the dance floor, Gina dressed up as a guy in a tux whereas the other four dressed up like ladies in the 1960s. By the way, when Kathy is playing the Danelectro 6-string bass on stage, she looks like Chas Chandler of the Animals.

  • LOVE that Rob Lowe's in this video!

  • Belinda looks so much like Leonardo DiCaprio when shes dressed like a dude.

  • I know... now I can't look at Belinda Carlisle the same way again. :(

  • WOW>>Rob Lowe..what a babe!

  • oooooooo...rob lowe..what a babe

  • ooooo..rob lowe..what a babe

  • its fucking rob lowe!

  • I guess that would be "drab" since "drag", or so I've been led to believe, is an acronym for "dressed as a girl", from the days when boys played women's parts in plays since women were forbidden to act on the stage.

    Also, Belinda looks like Leonardo DiCaprio in this video!

  • i love this song and the how the guitar sounds

  • was this released as a single?

  • Holy crap, Belinda looks just like Leonardo DiCaprio when she's dressed like a man.

  • Timeless...could be a hit today.

  • This is a great song, IMO.  So is the flip side, "I'm With You". How about posting that, too? Anyhow, thanks for posting this one.

  • Belinda looks good dressed up as a man. Me likey!

  • I hate to say this. But Belinda looks like a fat faced pretty boy! Very scary! But the rest of the girls look very hot!! Especialy the drumer!

  • I hate to say this. But belinda looks like a fat faced pretty boy! Very scary! But damn! The rest of the girls look hot! Especialy the drumer in the begining when she's all dressed up! And Jane too! She's looks good with long hair!

  • Jane Weidlin makes a Cute "Whatever" !!!

  • Yeah! I hate to say this but belinda looks like a fat faced pretty boy! It's scary! But damn the drumer looks fuckin hot when she's all dressed up! And jane really looks hot with long hair! Oh yeah great fuckin song! This is some of there better songs!

  • One of the big songs on New Music 89 KCFV - 89.5 KCFV/Ferguson-St. Louis in 1984. I recall putting the vinyl 12" on the production room turntable for the first time!

  • the break at 2:50 is hottt

    Saw them at Constitution Hall in D.C. in the 80's

    I was in the Pitt and just sat and drooled over Ms B the whole time

    thanks for this post !!! :)

  • Great video, but Belinda Carslile  in drag looks like Leonardo Dicaprio.

  • A guy impersonating a female is a drag queen, and a girl impersonating a guy is a drag king.

  • So why was Gina the only one who stayed female for the band but male in the audience?

  • LOVE this song and video. I miss this time!!

  • Drag Kings

  • yay rob lowe is so cute!!!

  • This is hilarious! Belinda Carlisle looks like Leonardo DiCaprio when he was Luke on Growing Pains!

  • I think Charlotte Caffey made a "cool" guy, lol. I like the hat!

  • The girls really nailed that early '60s British Invasion sound on this tune. Just a great vocal arrangement.

  • Females cross dressed to males are called "Drag Kings".

  • Great video, it's a real shame they broke up when their third album was released. The first two sound dull and tinny, full of those bad new wave one-note-at-a-time guitar solo's. The third album sounded so much better and the songs were better as well, it's a shame it was never a real success. Songs like this one should have been classics instead of being forgotten.

  • did you see Janes new car?

  • I really loved the Go Gos. They really were talented and looked hot. I remember I always thought Kathy Valentine was the least prettiest of the bunch but I saw them on an HBO concert several years ago and she really has aged well.

  • One of my earliest video memories. I remember thinking how absolutely subversive it was to have drag kings (not that I knew the term,) singing and dating real girls in this video. And that sound. Couldn't forget that melody if I tried.

  • belinda carlisle looks like a young leonardo di caprio

  • Holy Gender Bender, Batman! I've listened to this song for years and never realized that it was released with the COOLEST MUSIC VIDEO EVER MADE!! Faves: 1) Jane and Kathy channel George Harrison and John Lennon; 2) Charlotte and suave Gina slow dancing; and 3) Belinda looking like a football hero on a very lucky date as he/she gets into the convertible with debutante Jane. Thanks, BerryBlue!!

  • is that leonardo decaprio singing?

    :-D :-D :-D

  • Jane as a debutante is so beautiful!

  • In all the years since then I had NEVER seen this video, I only heard about it as a kid before we had MTV. TALK SHOW was the first album I ever bought, and I still have it!

  • omg !i remember when this video premiered on MTV !!!!LOVE THIS !!

  • cool vid

    nice song

    and even as men these girls look hot

  • I <3 Jane!

  • Drag kings! LOL!

  • mannnnnn¡¡¡ pretty cool video'''¡¡¡the best gogo´s

  • hello Rob Lowe!

  • a great song one of my fav gogo's songs

  • this song f*cking rocks. go-gos so underrated.

  • Their best song

  • Belinda looks like Leonardo what's his name.

  • hahahahaha.......rob lowe. i've seen this video countless times and had no idea he was in this until now

  • Jane looks absolutely gorgeous in this (in the dress and wig that is).

  • Loved this song! And...ROB LOWE!!!!! They only aired this video a few times when it came out-thanks so much for sharing this!!!!

  • I will bet that Jane Wiedlin had alot to do with the "look" of this video.

  • This is one of my favorite songs from the Talk Show album, and a pretty fun video too. I never figured out why Gina went opposite from the others (going in drag for her "partygoer" scenes, instead of her "band" scenes), but it doesn't really matter anyway. :-D

  • I think they are supposed to be spoofing a boy band! Cute idea! I love this song! Haven't heard it in forever! Totally takes me back to my high school days!

  • Who is cuter-- Rob or Belinda? I love this song and gosh, videos just never got any cooler. WOW!

  • Is that ROB LOWE in there ?

  • Rob Lowe was so hot when he was young...

  • OH babies!!!!

  • the go-go's in drag! omg tooooo hott!!

  • drag kings.

  • brilliant.

  • Jane Wiedlan is just HOT....

    LMAO

    Thanks for posting this, brings back some great memories....

  • Was the song about Charlotte Caffey's then boyfriend-- baseball pitcher, Bob Welch?

  • In an interview, they all said they were high on coke when they shot this video

  • Jane looks alike Winona Ryder a lot! Gina Shock looks fine as a girl (a girlie one I mean). Love Rob Lowe, he's so handsome. Great vid.

  • I love the guitars in this song.

  • Jane wiedling reminds me of a young winona ryder. the drummer looks pretty dressed as a girl. lol...

  • I soooooooooooooo love this video and song! It was one of my favorites when I was in highschool. Shows how versatile the girls are, and you gotta give them credit for playing double roles in the vid.

  • I havent seen this video in 20 years!thanks for the flashback,the gogos were highly underrated!

  • The Bubblegum haircuts ... lol !

  • Jane Drano looks SO UNBELIEVABLY GORGEOUS in her white dress and fancy-pants coiffure, I think she looks just like Elizabeth Taylor. Babe does look cute as a guy! They look like they were having so much fun, it's a shame what transpired afterward...This was my favorite song from Talk Show, this album came out right before I went to rehab, haha...I went to rehab a year before Babe did...

  • I have this on vinyl. One of the first albums I ever purchased. I love to turn this song waaay up. Thanks for posting.

  • I'd never seen this video or heard this song. Both are incredible and underrated! I'm mean hell, they're even cute in drag! (Never thought I'd hear myself saying THAT.)This song was probably a little "heavy" for pop radio stations in 1984 tho. Too bad. This rocks.

  • Thanks, this takes me back 20 years. And the party reminds me of the posh parties at the "Country Club Viejo" in Valencia in the 80's, Venezuela. Good times.

  • FYI. I recently read an interview with Belinda in which she mentioned this video, particualry how high they all were on cocaine during the filming of it.

  • Thank you  I havent seen this in years!!

  • This video was one of the best videos i saw as a kid, this was the earliest drag king style imagery i every saw on TV. Which was so awsome! I totally love the Go-Go's and to do such a great video to a great song. Dang it, it was awsome!

  • Thanks for posting this song! I heard this song once in the 4th grade and have had the chorus stuck in my head since 1984! UGH! I didn't even know what the song was called! HAPPY! :D

  • OMG! I have had this song stuck in my head since 4th Grade! I had only heard this song once! Thanks for posting it!

  • The girls look very pretty in this video. Check out Kathy's eyes @ 00:29 and Gina @ 00:45 ... Yum!!!

  • Belinda makes a cute guy!

  • Very butch:)

  • She sure do. :)

    Great clip.

  • Thanks for posting this, brings back memories. I never knew they made a video of this song in 84.

  • I love ROB LOWE!!..hes sooo hott!

  • The world makes it's rotation

    and I just wanna turn to you...

  • God Bless the Go-Gos!

  • From a 2003 Interview with Belinda:

    The Go-Go's made some really fun videos. Which is your favorite?

    Belinda: "The one for Turn to You. Oh God, it's a sick video. It makes me laugh to this day. We were so completely high (on cocaine) while we were filming it. My jaws are going a mile a minute. Just trembling. And they got me to wear that big, white hideous wig. We had such a blast, though."

  • I love these girls but this video just ruined my fantasies. Jane with a Moe Howard haircut = not good.

  • Did you see Jane's new car?!

  • Every time I see this video I can't help but thinking how funny it is to see Rob Lowe. Especially since many years later he would be the subject of a controversial tape shot with underage girls in a hotel in Atlanta. Oh, those WERE the good old days...

    GoGos ROCK!

  • Most likely their best song...ever.

    thank you BerryBlue84

  • i wasn't born yet in the 80's still i love them

  • How old were they, like 14?

  • Good question. I looked up their birthdates in Wikipedia. Guitarist Charlotte Coffey was the oldest at 31. Bassist Kathy Valentine was the youngest at 25. Belinda Carlisle and Jane Wiedlin were both 26.

  • More like 25(Kathy), 26(Belinda,Jane), 27(Gina)and 31(Charlotte).

    I heard in an interview with Belinda that they had a lot of fun making this video because they were all completely wasted. It's a great anyway, thanks BerryBlue84 for sharing.

  • Good ol'1984. I was 14 and loved and The go go's growing up. Would love to see them now. Thanks for the memories

  • Belinda in man's clothes looks like a young Leonardo Di Caprio! lol

    P.S. How cool were the 80's?

  • The 80's were cool if you were able to survive the cocaine blizzard that hit in 83 and lasted until 88. After that cocaine became a ghetto drug.

  • That was a great video!

  • I just figured out what always bugged me about this video. Belinda looks just like a young Wayne Newton. Even with her hand gestures. But what a great song - and a simple one chord guitar hook. It has a great 1960's feel to it.

  • This is good as other Go's Go's songs !

  • in this video Belinda looks a bit like Leonardo diCaprio!

  • She does indeed! I thought that immediately!

  • totally agree the same thing just crossed my mind

  • one of the most under-rated bands ever!!! they truly rock!! you go!!!

  • Androgyny at it's BEST!

    -They should have made Mr. Lowe don a wig and frock!

  • Oh shit are we all getting old or what!?! I remember this like it was yesterday...

    1984...No Iraq war...No Bush..No 911...and 85 Cents for a gallon of gas

  • Is that Rob Lowe in this video?

  • That bassline is pure Germs!

  • Holy cow its rob lowe.

  • The thing that I thought was so creative about the video was that each band member played a male & a female character. Gina the drummer was the opposite sex with the rest of the band's characters.

  • THANK YOU! WHAT A GREAT VIDEO!!!

  • Wait. When they are on stage, how come Gina didn't cross dress like the others? or was she.... omg.

  • I know and I always had a crush on her too, which makes me . . . omg.

  • Yes, that you're thinking.

  • Belinda ???? I'm so confused now !

  • Totally. I questioned my sexuality a bit when this video was out, LOL. Belinda totally looks like River Phoenix.

  • does anyone know exactly when this video came out in 1984 - like what month?

  • May 1984 =)

  • The summer of 1984...I think June...I know head over heels was the first single...

  • The video actually came out at the end of May 84 and played all through the summer. The video was directed by Mary Lambert who did the video for Yes Or No. They made the Yes Or No video during the three days they were at the Greek which would be Aug 8,9 and 10 then came out in September. Yes, Head Over Heels was the first single and that came out in March 84.

  • Thanks so much!

  • Thank you for posting this sweet clip. This brought back so many good memories!

  • Brings back memories! to me, it is an innovative, humorous and creative video for a great song that portrays anguish and lots of emotion.

  • I like this song...and I love the video because I'm like obsessed with Rob Lowe =D haha. Thanks for posting!

  • I have been wanted to see this video again for so long! I love this song and The Go-Go's, thanks for posting!

  • Belinda? Jeez, Jane looks like a missing Beatle!

  • I have not seen this in years, it was great

  • this is my favorite go-gos song and i've never ever saw the video. you rock berry thanks

  • Never had a chance to see this video until now... Thanks!

  • Yikes! Belinda looks like leo DiCaprio!

  • That's what I thought too!

  • Belinda makes a great young man. And Gina! *swoon*

  • I Love Belinda Carlisle`s Loosened Tie and the Top Button of Her Shirt Undone.

  • wow!Young Rob Lowe

  • Love the way Jane looks int his one
