[@yomammasboo713]

2021 NYRE brought me here. This is back when performances were wholesome.

[@BuckeyeNationRailroader]

The 1980s, the best time in American History

[@emilynam6084]

I watched this for nyre 2021! And I thought “man how time has changed” ! even the way people danced was different back then!

[@juniorbenitez8913]

Yesssss. They shows this on news

[@ronthatus]

They just showed this last night on ABC. These were happy times

[@judlaempire]

i remember that, and it looked really clear too. A shame they haven't uploaded their copy.

[@VixxieVamp92]

I had to go and be born in 1992. I missed out on a great decade!

[@mikeyerian2562]

I was 7 when this came out, I remember it quite well....

[@Texaslawhorn]

December 1982 baby here. I'd like to think I saw this from my crib as I rang in my first New Year!

[@chrisfinch8637]

Happy 40th Anniversary to Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve ‘83! Here’s to Dick, the Go-Gos, Lydia Cornell, and Anson Williams!

Belinda Carlisle is the most beautiful woman that ever lived. And she us still just as beautiful 40 years later !

[@ChrisChras]

Happy New years

[@Groesch7777]

Nothing better than a band who gets more into it than the crowd. That's how houses are brought down.

[@diecastinnracing6638]

1:18-1:23 The African Anteater Ritual Dance. Featured in 1987's hit film "Can't Buy Me Love". Now I know where the writers got the idea for that scene/dance. LMAO!!!

[@susanweinrich8225]

❤😊 Omg I am 17 yrs old again lol

[@buggysworld9807]

I love this video I watched it last night for the ball drop for 2021

[@mikemclaren8704]

I thought of the times when this song came out ,people were laughing and joking,not hating and killing

[@michaelgregory8022]

Back in the days it was straight nose candy that had made you dance like that.

[@billsmith04]

Legit!

[@halenbud]

All the kids just getting out of school They can't wait to hang out and be cool Hang around 'til quarter after twelve That's when they fall in line

[@patluciano5321]

Loving it and I love their outfits so 😎 cool

[@TrackerNeil]

If I am not mistaken, that is the same dress BC wore to the Grammys, earlier that year.

[@kittyspipas]

We got the beat!

I can picture 2021 teenagers ROFLing at the dance moves. Not that their kids won't someday be laughing at theirs.

EVERYBODY DO THE CARLTON! 😂😂😂😂

[@gigyoung7181]

who is that blonde in the black outfit @2:23? she obsessed me at age 13...she popped up in the broadcast a number of times and made my pubescent heart throb. funny how a glimpse of a beautiful girl's face can stain the brain of a young man for decades.

[@toms4442]

That's my sister, stay away!!!!

[@MaskedMan66]

JAAAAAAAAAANE!!!!!!

[@nicolep5574]

I wonder how much shit they were on during this performance?!

[@FireMinstrel]

Well, it's NYE in 1982...they AND all the people dancing probably indulged that night.

[@jeffharder8706]

Too bad bands didn’t play live back in the day 🤨

[@wcatholic1]

This is definitely the studio cut.

[@wcatholic1]

The live version.

[@FireMinstrel]

Yeah, when I watched Dick Clark's Rocking NYE in 2000, it was live music. Maybe the producers changed the format after all those 90's bands started lampooning the whole miming routine?

[@jeffharder8706]

@@FireMinstrel shows still using backing tracks unfortunately. The last Billboards show the Go-Go’s were on they told the producers they play live. They were the only band live that night

Other than the actual music...everything about this is fake and plastic.
