{"product_id":"greatest-4","title":"Greatest","description":"One of the best new wave bands, the Go-Go's managed to record three albums, without selling out, before their demise. Given that, the popisms of GREATEST HITS make it a curious collection. In omitting a number of the band's \"best\" songs--\"Skidmarks on My Heart\" and, inexcusably, \"Can't Stop the World\" from BEAUTY AND THE BEAT; \"That Old Feeling\" from VACATION; \"Beneath the Blue Sky\" from TALK SHOW--it presents the band as a straightforward pop band. But while pop certainly wasn't detrimental to the Go-Go's, it was merely one facet of their short career.\u003cbr\u003eThe band's biggest singles, \"Our Lips Are Sealed,\" \"We Got the Beat,\" \"Vacation,\" and \"Head Over Heels\" are all here. Among the lesser-known tracks are \"This Town,\" a scathing character study of L.A. life; the punchy \"Get Up and Go,\" which highlights Gina Schock's drumming; \"Mercenary,\" a somber tale of a deteriorating relationship with martial drumming and shimmering acoustic guitars; and \"Turn to You,\" complete with singalong backing vocals, a propulsive beat, and swaggering guitar. Though as a whole this collection focuses on the poppier side of the band, it more than amply demonstrates the skill and style that the Go-Go's brought to the then-new new wave movement.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45732358750495,"sku":"602508883620","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/68d247e5ce179cc9aad960f9f20f0412.jpg?v=1777598944","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/greatest-4","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
