Belinda Carlisle - Head Over Heels (Live at the Roxy '86)

from "Belinda" Live at the Roxy, Hollywood, May 1986
Lyrics:
Been running so long
I've nearly lost all track of time
In every direction
I couldn't see the warning signs
I must be losin' it
'Cuz my mind plays tricks on me
It looked so easy
But you know looks sometimes deceive
Been running so fast
Right from the starting line
No more connections
I don't need any more advice
One hand's just reaching out
And one's just hangin' on
It seems my weaknesses
Just keep going strong
Head over heels
Where should I go
Can't stop myself
Outta control
Head over heels
No time to think
Looks like
The whole world's out of sync
Been running so hard
When what I need is to unwind
The voice of reason
Is one I left so far behind
I waited so long
So long to play this part
And just remembered
That I'd forgotten about my heart

In 1986 I was nineteen years old - wee bit of a crush on Belinda. I am now 55 years old - wee bit of a crush on Belinda.

Oh to be a teenager in the 80’s again. We never knew how good we had it.

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

Oh, We definitely knew. That was part of the magic of The '80s...We knew it was a unique, remarkable, special time.

[@edwardh3020]

I know right!!

[@carmensandiego2395]

I had the time of my life!!

[@booty4801]

Yeah. Who knew there was a conspiracy to enslave every man, woman and child waiting for us in the future.

[@rickycoleman8841]

Oh how i wished i could go back . first car , girlfriend, kiss among other first.

Belinda is adorable in this. Her hair, her smile, her barefoot dancing.

Yes. A goddess!

I loved her appearance in Playboy, after she lost all of that baby fat she had during the Go Go's years.

[@Jestak]

Nice to see Charlotte Caffey on keyboard, with a big smile on her face.

[@2020umakemyday]

Belinda looked so happy that Charlotte stayed with her after the group's break up. They seem to be very close to each other and they also happened to be my 2 favorite members.

most under-appreciated singer in the history of rock-n-roll. one of a kind voice who really could sing live stage.

[@tonymarks841]

Such a strong and great sounding bottom register!

This was Belinda’s maximum cuteness period.

[@edwardlazich1140]

I liked her in that 2001 concert in Central Park. Everyone got makeovers except Charlotte Caffey. Great concert, unfortunately no Andy Taylor.

So happy I got to be a teen in the 80’s! Best music era!

Girl rushes onto stage to hug Belinda, Belinda hugs her back! She's awesome.

[@kristinengman2701]

Tomas Tinfoilhat if that happened now the entire concert would be shut down.

[@brandon.lewis.]

If it had been a man, she probably would still have hugged him as he got carried away in a vicious chokehold.

[@ChrisWrightSydney]

I've only just seen this video for the first time, I reckon the woman who ran on stage was planned, judging by how the camera angle and timing were perfect to capture it. Most films don't get that perfect in my experience. Great show, love the bare feet, it's so spontaneous and genuine.

[@bellawright4265]

No matter what she wore. .....she made the outfit look even better.Love that she's barefoot'n it.....that my good friends is pure class.

Those were great days. The music was positive and kept us all going strong.

[@dannywood8406]

That girl just has a 5 alarm stage presence! Wow! Love to watch her go!

[@spectrumlocalb191]

I met Belinda Carlise after The David Letterman Show years ago and she was so shocked that she remembered we had sat for a half hour in The Spectrum in Philly where I work years ago and talked about how the 80s music one day would be remembered as great stuff and indeed it is.A really great person and down to earth.She signed the pictures I had with her that night in The Spectrum and then had new ones at The David Letterman Show.

[@georgetellis9483]

If you really know her then you know she is a prima Donna.

[@ulissesbasile7556]

amazing memory!!!

[@stevehamilton8824]

Gorgeous! Still in love with Belinda and the Go Go's

[@DigitalCitizen1]

I’ve watched this video every day for several months. I didn’t pay much attention to her back then. Wish I had. This concert looks like it was a lot of fun.

[@paulinejones34]

Me too!

[@ianski11]

Ahhh, the days when a random fan gets on the stage...Belinda took it in stride like a boss.

[@YoMama9021]

I love this song so much! No shoes on, no worries to show!

She was so cute, and a live performance sounds as good as the record.

Oh Hands down. Belinda is unique, but then so is her band. So glad they're still active and well.

yup 👍

[@dandonovan2003]

So true !

[@michaellara8421]

Amen my friend

[@markzappasodi]

I saw Belinda (and Charlotte) on this tour at The Chestnut Cabaret in Philly on July 3, 1986. They had surprise guests Andy Taylor (who had just left Duran Duran) and Steve Jones from The Sex Pistols.

[@air82ndborne]

My childhood crush, still to this day I can't get enough

[@treyboldon1999]

Really amazing to see charlotte on the stage with Belinda ♥️

[@Jestak]

What is especially nice is seeing how happy Charlotte looks when you see her in close-ups here. In a lot of live Go-Go's videos, which were made when she was still hooked on heroin, her smiles seem really forced a lot of the time--if she's smiling at all.

[@treyboldon1999]

@@Jestak I know right

[@mjdomicello]

This is definitely one of the greatest new wave dance songs ever

[@marklowe7431]

She never had to over sing a song, just a nice voice straight up.

[@stevesandwichproductions1043]

Every time Belinda wags her finger I get a huge smile and start getting that old feeling again because I love her so much!

[@tonymarks841]

Such a great voice with a strong bottom register.

[@toms4442]

I like her bottom register!

[@iproclaimit]

I was in a restaurant today and this song came on. WOW I am glad I heard it again I ma now reliving all of Belinda's songs. ( tear in the eyes )

[@leebrown3848]

Seeing Belinda and Charlotte here so happy leaving the stress of the Go Gos behind just for a bit anyway

[@Kharing]

Belinda looks too cute! Charlotte Caffey on piano, and Andy Taylor on guitar! Those mullets...UGH!

[@drummingdanny84]

And don’t forget Ricky Phillips (Styx, The Baby’s, Bad English) on bass and the late Pat Torpey (Mr. Big) on drums.

[@DigitalCitizen1]

Wow you guys are experts. I don’t know any of them

[@thomasfilmer9717]

Soo many mullets!!

[@RideAcrossTheRiver]

@@thomasfilmer9717 Don't worry--today's haircuts will look psychotic in 20 years. Oh, wait, we've stagnated these days into doing nothing but the same. Carry on

[@randallmartin2549]

They weren’t called mullets back then, in fact it didn’t have a name for the style. Only later they came up with the derogatory term “mullet”. Many people back in the 80’s styled their hair like that.

[@eduardomiotto]

Belinda is my sweeetheart ever and forever!

[@rodakjones7574]

She's dreamy. 1986...when it was still ok for a woman to have a little meat on her bones. She wears it well. Beautiful and talented. This is a great performance.

[@DigitalCitizen1]

I keep hearing that I just don’t see it. Maybe in the Very beginning but not here.

[@deansusec8745]

even then, she was shamed for it. I honestly cant even see it! Perfect

[@mtadams2009]

@@DigitalCitizen1 She did have issues with her weight not by any normal standards but in the entertainment industry she did. Worst than her weight was her coke addiction. The coke helped with the weight issue. She was a beautiful woman I only wish she could have felt the same way.

[@rodakjones7574]

Yeah, I totally meant it in terms of Hollywood expectations of women which are ridiculous. She is obviously beautiful and perfectly fit for a normal person, but they put a lot of pressure on women in showbiz to be skinny and "perfect" or whatever. I think she's stunning.

[@andrewpotok2661]

She's been sober for yrs. God bless her

I still have a huge crush

[@YoMama9021]

That band was flowing love into the crowd and it gave it back. I can only imagine what that feels like to give that feeling to thousands of people all at once. 😍
