  1. You are a god. I was just insisting to a friend that he was mistaking Belinda's mass popularity for meaning she was the most talented Go Go. Your post proves I was right that Jane was teh actual best Go Go even if she didn't soar to Belinda level heights.

  2. I search YouTube sporadically for Jane's "World on Fire" video, but it's never anywhere to be found, darn it!

  3. Anyone who prefers Belinda to Jane should be shot into the sun. Jane's got that great, cute energy and her songs are so danceable.

  4. I take mild offense to that. My husband prefers Belinda to Jane but that is because when faced with two attractive women, he will always choose the redhead.

    He likes redheads. Lots.

  5. Sparks is in my top 5 favorite bands of all time so this was a nice re-visit. Thanks!
