"Our Lips Are Sealed" is a song written by Go-Go guitarist Jane Wiedlin and Terry Hall . It was first recorded by The Go-Go's as the lead-off song on their 1981 album '' Beauty And The Beat '' (see 1981 In Music ) and served as their debut American single. In the year 2000, '' Rolling Stone '' named it one of the 100 Greatest Pop Songs of all time.


GO-GO'S AND FUN BOY THREE VERSIONS

Although originally written and performed with three verses, an abbreviated version of the song appears on ''Beauty and the Beat''. This version of the song was released as a Single in early 1982 (see 1982 In Music ) and peaked at number twenty on '' Billboard '''s Hot 100 chart, and fifteen on ''Billboard'''s Mainstream Rock chart. A song of unusual longevity, it remained on the ''Billboard'' charts for most of 1982, long after its peak. The accompanying video was an early favorite of the fledgling MTV channel, and helped establish the energetic persona of The Go-Go's.

The following year, co-writer Terry Hall re-recorded the song with his own band, Fun Boy Three ; it reached number seven on the UK Singles Chart .


HILARY AND HAYLIE DUFF COVER

American pop music singer . May 20 2004 .

The single's Music Video was directed by Chris Applebaum and filmed in Toronto, Canada in May 2004. It was released in June 2004 and received medium airplay on MuchMusic in Canada and MTV in the U.S. Similar to the video for the Go-Go's single, it depicts the Duff sisters driving around town in a car and goofing about, and is intercut with clips from ''A Cinderella Story''. Though the video was popular on the MTV video chart show '' Total Request Live '', the single itself was less successful than the original Go-Go's song in the U.S., failing to chart on the Hot 100. In Australia it reached number eight. The song was later included on Duff's compilation album, '' Most Wanted '' (2005).
