Belinda Carlisle

The ex-Go Gos lead singer broke out on her own in 1986, and had several big hits through the 1990s. This was her first solo hit, which reached No. 3.

The B side was written by Go Gos bandmate Charlotte Caffey. I always thought it sounded a bit like Joan Baez's "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down," but this song is less forceful even with the similarities.

After her solo career petered out, she returned to the Go Gos as lead singer, and performs with them--singing their hits together and her solo hits--to enthusiastic audiences.
