Belinda Carlisle

Belinda Carlisle's fans will know that she was the lead singer of the all-female group "The Go-Go's". Gifted with a powerful voice, she was one of the founder members of this New Wave music band. The Go-go's broke up in 1985.

B.C. went solo and, in 1993, she released her album "Real", her fifth, which was quite different from her previous work. "Big Scary Animal" , from this album, was an instant hit.

I like this song, especially the introduction. The heavy drum beat, reminiscent of a jungle tom-tom, really does transmit the strong animal feeling that passionate love can lead to.
