Like Jimi Hendrix in "Purple...<b> Head Over Heels</b><br /><br />Like Jimi Hendrix in "Purple Haze" the entire lyrics are a distress call. That's the most psychedelic lysergic depressive image about the 5 Go-Go’s, recognizing that they are prisoners of their addictions and can not stand being sober even if madness makes them feel disconnected from the world. Singing happily about their own sadness. Making energetic music about unhappiness. A high-spirited song about their low-spirited situation.<br /><br /><br /><b> Forget That Day </b><br /> <br />EPIC. DRAMATIC. MONUMENTAL. Definitive Masterpiece by the genius of Jane Wiedlin. The song growns up in intensity, changing the structure, going stronger and louder. The piano licks by Charlotte Caffey gives all the Tragic Tunes preparing the explosion. Only the Real Masters of Music create gems like this. The Go-Go's peaking their talent.<br /><br /><br /><b> You Thought </b><br /><br />The Richest, Dense and Complex Masterpiece by The Go-Go's. Gina Schock is a genius. Absolutely FANTASTIC. The song performed LIVE in ROCK IN RIO reborns more intense, crude, true, strong and mysterious like a Hitchcock movie soundtrack. Belinda accidentally provoked a sharped feedback from her microphone, almost drilling our eardrums. Charlotte looks like a GODDESS, smiling while playing guitar and keyboards. I only wanna know: "What are they laughing so much?" Maybe this: "This number is sounding better than the rest of this gig!"<br />Ernesto Ribeirohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05485041823310870738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-161694830669099204.post-6930808900245857742021-04-24T21:35:23.107-07:002021-04-24T21:35:23.107-07:00I love the entire first side of Talk Show.
