“Valley Girl” is a song by the musician Frank Zappa and his then 14-year-old daughter, Moon Unit Zappa. It was released on Zappa’s 1982 album Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch. Moon supplied Frank with much of the content, speaking typical “Valley girl” or “Valspeak” phrases she heard at “parties, bar mitzvahs, and the Galleria”. Zappa intended to lampoon the image, but the single popularized the Valley Girl stereotype nationwide. There was a significant increase in “Valspeak” slang usage, whether ironically spoken or not (not the least of which was the film, Valley Girl).
The song was Zappa’s only top 40 single in the United States, peaking at #32 in the Billboard Hot 100, although he had charted hits in other parts of the world.
The single had varying B-sides. Two of them were from the same album as “Valley Girl:” “No Not Now” and “Teen-Age Prostitute.” Another B-side was “You Are What You Is.” One of the versions of the single had “Valley Girl” on both sides: the A-Side had the full version, while the B-Side had a fade-out version.
