The Go-Go's - Vacation 

As a 55 year old man, I to grew up listening to The Go-Go's. I was in love with all of them! I saw them in concert at age 48, and I danced on stage with them! They played the soundtrack to my life.

Belinda's voice is so beautiful. I love this 80s band so much!

It is now the year 2023 and CONGRATULATIONS to the GO-GO's who were recently inducted into the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME...And this happy-go-lucky awesome song is definitely my favorite GO-GO smash hit 👏👏👏

80s the best

The Go Gos were the coolest chicks from back in the day and they still are 😎🤘

I came here to remember my teenage years and how stupidly carefree and in Love I was. I miss those days. Greatest days of my life. I'm showing my kids what good music used to sound like.

The soundtrack of my youth. I love these ladies.

Their melodies, vocals and bass-lines are absolutely unparalleled. Amazing band.

Been watching Go-Go’s clips lately and realizing that Gina’s drumming is rock solid and the pop melodies are really clever. Great backing vocals too. Definitely underrated musically.

Hot damn. The Go-Go's are headed to the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame! It's about time.

THE definition of fun. Thanks ladies. Hope you are all well.

❤A very Happy Birthday 🎉 🎂🎉to the fabulous, multi-talented Jane Wiedlin today!! I ❤️ the GO GO'S

My favorite part of ANY Go-Go's video ever is Gina Schock wailing away on those drums starting at 1:52.

Memories of Rum Ham and the Jersey Shore.

Love how Gina Schock the drummer is counting the beats at 1:53. Great song, Great band, Great decade.

What fun. Our lives were just beginning --class of 81 !

Who else is in their 40s and remembers this like yesterday? I was 9 years old when my mother bought this album for me.. I had this tiny little toy of a record player that had these little colored lights on the front that lit up with the beat of the music.. I would play this record... call my mother to come and listen to me sing.. because this little player had an attached mic that you could sing with the music and hear it through its speakers.. I would hide under my bed.. lol because I was so shy and a dork.. and I would sing this song for my mom.... THAT started my love of singing. I just love to sing.. sad part is.. I developed this goiter on my throat in my late 20s.. and now sometimes I can sing.. other times I cannot.. I assume something is pressing on my vocals.. I never had it looked at.. I really miss being able to sing.. it was always second nature.. But all of these bands and singers from the 80s... makes me sad... brings back soo many memories.. Life has gone by soooo damn fast..

This is my go to "vacation hype" music. Always gets me excited for one!

The soundtrack of my childhood❣️ The '80's were the *_best decade❣️_* Jesus is Lord❣️✝️🙏💗

God I Have An Unhealthy Obsession With 80s Music.

That notebook style ending was really well done.

Summer of 1982. It was a great time to be alive.

This era of music will never come back. Sad to say but at the same time I will always be grateful for having lived my teen years in the 80's. They will always live in our hearts forever.

There’s no going back after hearing this song play during the Rugrats Vegas special, love it forever

I feel like I really missed out on a great period of time as I was born in 89…the 90’s wasn’t bad but I just hear that the 80’s was best

80s the last happy generation

Fun Fact: this song was very popular in Peru, South America! I remember visiting my grandparents in Cuzco as a little boy, and found a small single record song from the Go-Go’s, with this song in their repertoire!!! 😝

I met Gina Schock last weekend at Pensacon and she is such an awesome woman. Her pup Penny is such a sweetie. Id love to see them come in concert where i live.

The GoGos is one of my best bands period and for some reason they still do sound brand new to me after all these years .

Whitout a doubt they are among the best eras of the best music.... 60's,70's,80's,And 90's 😍

One of the best songs of the 80s.

70’s 80’s 90’s when music was real music

Can't seem to get my mind off of you Back here at home there's nothin' to do Now that I'm away I wish I'd stayed Tomorrow's a day of mine that you won't be in When you looked at me I should've run But I thought it was just for fun I see I was wrong And I'm not so strong I should've known all along that time would tell A week without you Thought I'd forget Two weeks without you and I Still haven't gotten over you yet Vacation All I ever wanted Vacation Had to get away Vacation Meant to be spent alone A week without you Thought I'd forget Two weeks without you and I Still haven't gotten over you yet Vacation All I ever wanted Vacation Had to get away Vacation Meant to be spent alone

This brings back WONDERFUL memories of my teen years and the 80s and a time when life was fun and simple ❤️

As a teen in the ‘80s, I loved this music. I still love it today. An authentically GREAT American rock band! Thank you, ladies. You still got it!

The Go Gos really made a big musical splash with Vacation as I was entering college. I became sort of a closet Go Gos fan, would listen to their Beauty and the Beat album on cassette tape when nobody else was around. They had a bad ass reputation, rebellious, drugs, wild and crazy, etc. Regardless, their music has stood the test of time, and it often brightens my day. Hey ladies, thanks for the music.

As a formation water-skiing team the Go-Go's were criminally under-rated.

'80 s music was the bomb. The Go Go s rocked it then and now

I totally relate to the Go-Gos - Vacation tune! Whenever I travel, I like to keep an open mind and dive into local cultures. It's always a great experience to broaden my horizons and discover something new.

Always sunny!

The drummer has got it going .

The 80s music was the best!

Prayers to those who didn't live through the 80s.

Miss the 80"s!! those were great times and great music!! miss L.A back then...

1984年の夏。高校1年の学園祭。夜の校庭にダンスミュージックかけてダンス大会。突然雨、豪雨が降り出して校庭の空気は異常に興奮。特にこの曲が印象に残っています。ずぶ濡れで家に帰りました。楽しかった。

Released as a single on June 26, 1982, the Go-Go's "Vacation" water-skied its way up the Hot 100, peaking at #8 for the week of August 21, 1982.

My summer song in the 80's Love it. Class of 1987 ROCKS

Belinda’s husky vibrato voice is rock solid. Great band!

In Heaven only 80s music plays.

Still so very much proud of em for getting the recognition that they were so very much worthy of!!!! The rock n roll hall of Fame!!!!! Congratulations to you Lil ladies!!!!!

The drummer is awesome 👍

I'm so appreciative that I grew up in this era where music was at its best!

Takes me back summer of 1982

I'm an early 80's college kid. It was studying 5 days to earnestly learn pharmacology at U of M, partying two days to forget the drudgery of the other five. Susan was a brazen, brunette dorm brat, but her bidding for me to come upstairs and party became too strong to resist. "That's what the little girl's DO.' 45 years later, I haven't gotten over the halcyon thrill of those youthful and passionate days.

Their 1st Album was absolute killer!! I wore it out, I think the second one was good too. It’s a shame they had so many personal problems with each other, they could’ve written this right out of this world

Anthemic pop/punk perfection achieved by the always underrated the Go's Go's. The heartfelt vocals mixed with the killer hooks makes Vacation a soaring sing-along C L A S S I C 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Gen Z: Spider-Man! Gen X: The 80s! Millennials: RUM HAM!!!!

Driving to ft. Lauderdale with 4 girls in a jeep. They played the go-gos all the way there. Especially this song. That vacation still puts a huge smile on my face so many years later. Haven't seen any of them since that summer. They blew me away that summer. WOW!!!!

Trailblazers , wrote their own music and were as wild as the 1980s . Love them dearly . Yes or no and Turn to you are great songs and vids .

Totally danced on our wood coffee table in first grade jamming out to this song! Thank you Go-go's!

It's possible that the Go'Gos might be put in rock n roll Hall of Fame this year

This song is still very relevant today! 41 years later.

Rugrats brought me here I ❤ this song🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I won't deny that I was introduced to this on the Rugrats. Now that I am older, I can appreciate it.

I was just a little boy in the 80s but I remember my uncle Larry used to take me to concerts I love the GO GOs saw them in concert more than a few times and I blasted their music on a massive boom box that drove my grandparents crazy lmao I will always be an 80s boy

God the 80’s were amazing. ❤

Remember when they were a punk rock band.

I'm just gonna put it short, you know why I'm here!!! *Spider-Man theme plays*

The Go-Go's are nominated for the 2021 Rock and roll Hall of Fame induction. Fan's can vote Once a day everyday until April 2021. They deserve it!😎👍🏻🎵🎶💙

All of my early crushes were women pop singers in the 80's. MTV was brand new, and to see videos of women I had only heard on the radio was amazing.

Miss the 80s so much?

Sheer brilliance! Great song and having the girls be Cypress Gardens water skiers was excellent. I love how Charlotte lifts her arm at 1:41, throws her head back and smiles. It's all great, and Gina's barette was adorable!

listening to this song just makes me wanna collect sea specimens on the jersey shore, rob a place, and eat rum-ham

Here from Jackass 4.5 always loved this song but was even better during the water skiing.

This is one of the best songs ever period

My favorite Go-Go's song! The first 45 I ever bought as a kid in the 80s. I wish it had the last verse from the original version: "I think I'll leave without saying goodbye. I think that you know the reason why. What if I was to stay? Would things turn out some other way? I'll never know anyway."

Belinda Carlisle was so darn cute! 😍

The rugrats vacation special got me interested in this song

The go go's are a vacation from life. Viva la belinda

They were inducted to Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2022🙏

Still a great Song in 2024

Wow, this takes me back to junior high!! Love the 80s!!

This is such good songwriting. Nobody builds up to a killer chorus anymore.

I still wonder if Tommy ever got that stuffed white tiger back.

The Amazing 80s. Everyone was in love with Belinda, but Jane was my girl. All of them beautiful and talented.

OMG the Hair.

the 80's were a magical time

Thank you for the beautiful voice and the beautiful music, Belinda, and ladies!❤

The more I listen to this song, the more it seems like it's a story of a girl conflicted in her relationship and decided to get away from it to breathe a little, perhaps to prepare for a breakup. After some time away, she realized she only needed some space but is still in love with him/her. We all can do good with a little time alone. Take a vacation from it all😉

Any other 90s kids here for the rugrats nostalgia ?

7th grade (82). Awesome memories. Best band at the time.

So I just went back to my awkward years...I solemnly swear I shall dance to this every time I hear it...don't care where I am..it's happening ❤️

The True Girl Band of The 80’s. Pure Talent and Class!

The dress sytle was far superior to what we have these days. The 80's hair was so dapper too. Go 80's 😍

I was only 19 years old when that song came out. Great video. I still enjoy listening to it today. I think that the Go Gos were the greatest All female group. They split up a long time ago but they are still great. Rock and Roll Hall of Famers also. God bless the Go Go's

The Go-Go's Vacation is still going strong after 40 years! Most people vacation one week at a time!

one of the best female drummers ever!! 🎶😊

Congratulations to the go _ go For the rock n roll hall of fame. Much deserved

It’s always makes me happy hearing this song! Love my 80s days!

What a masterpiece!🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸🌹🎸
