"Cherry Lips", also known as "Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)" is a 2001 song written, recorded and produced by alternative rock group Garbage for their third studio album, Beautiful Garbage. It was released the following year by Mushroom Records as the album's second international single, with the exception of North America, where Interscope issued "Breaking Up the Girl" in its place. A percentage of the royalties generated from the sales of "Cherry Lips" was donated to the International Red Cross.
"Cherry Lips" was a massive hit in Australia, where the single peaked at #1 on their Alternative chart, #2 on the Airplay chart, #3 on the Club chart and at #7 on the overall ARIA Singles chart. The single spent five non-consecutive weeks in the top ten, and was certified Gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association. "Cherry Lips" also peaked at #8 in Italy, where it had been the sound of a prominent winter marketing campaign for Breil Stones.
In 2007, "Cherry Lips" was remastered and included on Garbage's greatest hits album Absolute Garbage.

Famous quotes containing the words cherry and/or lips:
“Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough,”
—A.E. (Alfred Edward)
“A great deal of unnecessary worry is indulged in by theatregoers trying to understand what Bernard Shaw means. They are not satisfied to listen to a pleasantly written scene in which three or four clever people say clever things, but they need to purse their lips and scowl a little and debate as to whether Shaw meant the lines to be an attack on monogamy as an institution or a plea for manual training in the public school system.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
