I met my wife while waiting in line to get into the Whiskey-a-go-go April 25, 1982. Girl school played two sold out shows that night - the shows were sold out because KROQ had Yeah Right on its playlist. Strangely, Girlschool didn't play Yeah Right in the show we saw. We married in 1984 and are still married 31 years later. Best to Girlschool.
This is one of the best songs of girlschool ever - next to com on lets go... I love girlschool - this is real british rock - Thank you girlschool - You are the best......
Girlschool have their own unique sound - they're not punk, metal or even NWOBHM . . . they're Girlschool! Kelly's gone and we miss her sorely . . . but the band continues to make excellent music! If you get a chance to see them grab it - one of the best live shows you'll see. Ash
I was about 12-13yrs old when this came out. I bought the album and chanced upon this great song! It was great to see some girl rockers amongst all the other great Metal bands Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Accep and Motorheadt.
There is a tribute to Kelly on My Space and on Girlschool's homepage. I saw them probably ten times in the 1980's with 2-3 different lineups, but the one with Kelly was by far the best. I thought she absolutely kicked ass and she looked a treat, too. RIP Kelly.
@felipeklg Yeah Kelly Johnson died of spinal cancer in '07, the one with the les paul.... What a guitarist! Alison Robertson from The Donnas reminds me so much of Kelly. R.I.P.
i saw them in Ottawa back in 81(?) at the Rideau Theatre(RIP) It was so loud I had a pair of sonic earplugs in and I still had to leave the building many times....LOL i fell in love
I did some recording at the same studio with Vic Maile, he was diabetic and would fall asleep sometimes at the desk. All the 2 inch mastertapes would be around and we'd happily read the boxes and find out that for example Motorhead by Motorhead was recorded there.
Punk rock....... es una pena q hoy en dia no halla grupos de este tipo en ningun lado.......deberian triunfar.....joder q asko de nostalgia, deberia haber nacido diez años antes.
PHIILLLTHHYYYYY!! hah! the funniest drummer in the world, jumpin about dressed like someone's granny. also, rip kelly. but it would be prefered if you were reincarnated as soon as possible.
If you think they are metal then they are metal, I've known the band a lon long time and they have never been metal, but I can't be bothered arguing. Girlschool ARE Original and like all GREAT bands don't belong to any genre, tags like Metal and Punk were created by lazy journalists in an atempt to pigeonhole bands and create SCENES. Girlschool were around at the same time and were tagged as metal/punk and yes they are influenced by hard rock and Punk bands but they are far better than that!!
yeah philthy :) girlschool & motörhead... that's always been some kinda relationship and whenever they meet you can bet your ass something cool's gonna happen. underjoggle... no, don't sound anything like maiden's running free.

Great band. Great musicians. I can hear the influence this band had on early Motley Crue.
I was about 12-13yrs old when this came out. I bought the album and chanced upon this great song! It was great to see some girl rockers amongst all the other great Metal bands Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Accep and Motorheadt.
Philthy is awesome, gotta love that guy :D
Phil Taylor rocks!!!
girlschool rocks...they inspired my sister to start listening to NWOBHM and pick up the guitar...go girlschool
LOL hilarious cameo by Philthy Animal there! XD

And l listened this song many many times.
So, about 30 years ago.
Harhar - I love Philthy Animals part in here - just awsome XD
I think this was the best lineup of the band.

Philty rules!
awesome .. with Philthy Animal?! hahaha \m/
Saw them last year here in Holland playing for only 70 die-hards! They deserve much better!
Yes it was from the Bronze rocks video and Yes it is Enid on bass/vocals
I remember seeing this band at Magic Mountain in 1983!!! holy shit!
I hear this song for the first time,and I can say that they rocked!
I wish I seen them back in those days. They were great,
I did some recording at the same studio with Vic Maile, he was diabetic and would fall asleep sometimes at the desk. All the 2 inch mastertapes would be around and we'd happily read the boxes and find out that for example Motorhead by Motorhead was recorded there.
I want to go to Girlschool!
lol, still have hit and run on
album
Well said. These ladies picked up instruments and decided to rock, that is it. Metal, punk...whatever. RIP Kellie.
I'm an Enid Williams fan, something about female bassists
great band
Even though I was/am a puffter, it was great to see a band like Girlschool during the NWOBHM days.
Nowt wrong with a bit of glamour on stage!
girls rock on in this classic
Punk rock....... es una pena q hoy en dia no halla grupos de este tipo en ningun lado.......deberian triunfar.....joder q asko de nostalgia, deberia haber nacido diez años antes.
Thats GREAT! I love it. I grew up with that kind of music.
Now here's the girlschool I know.
UAU!, i'm in love!!!
Haha,Phil Taylor.....

Yup still Enid!
Gotta love Girlschool :)
They´re great!
Sorry to hear of Kelly Johnson's passing.
Lol, awesome video and funny too

PHIILLLTHHYYYYY!! hah! the funniest drummer in the world, jumpin about dressed like someone's granny.

This is them influenced by punk. And all the better for it.. Great song.

Anyone else think this sounds a bit like Iron Maiden's "Running Free"?
Maybe I'm just crazy.
yeah philthy :) girlschool & motörhead... that's always been some kinda relationship and whenever they meet you can bet your ass something cool's gonna happen.
underjoggle... no, don't sound anything like maiden's running free.
they're fuckin' best!
@threecoloursblue1

Nice band really, but...the singer ....
