Let’s get the week started with this peppy little number:
Come for the power pop; stay for the pubescent Rob Lowe.

Wow! I don’t remember this video, maybe it was too progressive for major play back then. The Go-Go’s popped up today while I was working out today as a number of their songs have that great upbeat tempo for running or working out.

Was going to say the same thing….how did I miss this?
BTW, the recent doc on the Go-Go’s is really pretty great. “First all-woman group to write their own songs, play their own instruments and snag a #1 hit”..and not in the R n R HoF. Pretty criminal, imo. https://www.spin.com/featured/go-gos-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame/

Always liked that song, but I’m a sucker for great power pop.
Friday night I saw Tom Hanks answering random questions from Stephen Colbert, and his answer to ‘you get 1 song to listen to for the rest of your life – what is it?’ was Our Lips Are Sealed. It wouldn’t have been in my top 100 choices, but I do appreciate it

Alex the Seal. Yeah, it’s a guilty pleasure but certainly not top 100.

That’s right, Uncle Got. On the hearing test where you check all the boxes of noise to which you’ve been exposed? The only one I leave blank is Rubella. But I generally had ear pro most of the time except for one. That RocknRoll.
Now somebody answer that damn phone!
