Sparks and Jane Wiedlin represents a collaborative effort between the American rock and pop band Sparks, and Jane Wiedlin, a member of the all-female band The Go-Go's. Notable for its unique fusion of new wave and synth-pop, their collaboration resulted in the 1983 hit single "Cool Places," which peaked at number 49 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The combination of Sparks' quirky, theatrical style and Wiedlin's punk-influenced pop sensibility made for a distinctive sound in the early 1980s music scene. The collaboration further highlighted the musical versatility of both parties.
