U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Peak Position No. 77
Backstory: Wiedlin broke up from the Go-Go's to go onto a solo career in '85 after the release of their Talk Show album. This was the one and only single released off of her debut self-titled solo album. It was only a minor success on the actual Hot 100, but made it as high as No. 30 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play charts. It was also a minor hit in Canada, peaking as high as No. 62 there. Wiedlin would release some more solo albums over the years, including 1988's Fur, which included the No. 9 single, "Rush Hour", which became her biggest hit single. Wiedlin still performs to this day by herself, and with The Go-Go's. Wiedlin resides in the Los Angeles area.
The review: This is a great, cutesy, sweet and nice sounding New Wave/ pop tune with a nice melody and great vocal work from Wiedlin. Love this one! Should've been a MUCH bigger hit.
Final rating: 9/10
