Biography

Belinda Carlisle pursued a solo career after leaving The Go-Go's in 1984. As her solo career progressed, Carlisle removed any of the rough edges remaining in her style, transforming from a new wave rocker to a polished contemporary classical pop singer. The change was evident on her first album, 1986's Heaven On Earth. Featuring the number three hit single "Mad About You," the record went gold and established her as a viable hitmaker. The following year, Carlisle released Heaven On Earth, her greatest solo success. Continuing the immaculately produced mainstream pop of Heaven On Earth, the record featured the number one title track, the number two single "I Get Weak," and the Top Ten ballad "Circle in the Sand." Runaway Horses, released in 1989, was another successful album, spawning the hit singles "Leave a Light On" and "Summer Rain," yet it showed signs that her audience was shrinking. That suspicion was confirmed by the dismal performance of 1991's Live Your Life Be Free, which failed to make the charts. ...Is A Real Boy, released in 1993, didn't revive Carlisle's career and she subsequently joined the re-formed The Go-Go's in 1994. The The Go-Go's reunion was short-lived, even though it was widely praised. Carlisle returned to solo recording in 1996 with A Woman A Man Walked By, which failed to gain much attention. A myriad of collections and compilations followed, as well as another The Go-Go's reunion. Carlisle released a new solo album, Voi-la Intruder, in 2007. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

    Lyrics
    Take my hand, tell me what you are feeling
    Understand this is just the beginning
    Although I have to go, it makes me feel like crying

    Darling leave a light on for me, I'll be there before you close the door

    Lyrics
    I remember when I met you
    All the stars were hanging in mid-air
    In these moments, nothing mattered
    But the way you caught me in your stare
    We were walking, we were talking
