The Cramps - Ultra twist

[mrsannethr0pe]

awe, Lux looks really good!

[NearsL]

Still listening to it in 2012! music then was so much better, I mean I guess I wasn't alive back then but,fuck its so much better!!! AAAH DO THA ULTRA TWISTT!

[GOFLuvr]

I showed this video to a friend of mine who's a total prude... Afterwards she became a lot less prudish.

Lux Interior's awesomeness always grabs me by the balls and throws me face first into a brick wall. And Poison Ivy can beat my bare ass with a wet towel any day!

[paul5839]

legendary, epic and crazy. This are THE CRAMPS



[suicidemasive]

Excellent!

[TheDsmyth]

lux looks amazin in this get up

[Alphabex8]

video description pretty much says it all, love it

[KadeshLeMort]

Ummm this is horrible compaired to their other stuff

[muga32]

@KadeshLeMort Only it's unfair to compare it to the genius of their "other stuff". Put it in perspective and compare it to the last song you heard on your local radio station.

Peace.

[KadeshLeMort]

@muga32 I dont listen to the radiostation,,, hmm the last thing I listend to on my mp3 was Misfits

[aekoriginale21]

wish cramps all over your body..

[Destro088]

their not talking about sex are they?????

[Dansilverbabe]

I want his outfit..awesome man.

[MrBeautifulba1]

Poison Ivy. Yes Mistress. Yes.

[HanzelundGretylZN]

This reminds me of Hazel und Gretyl's ''Take me to your Leader'' videoclip.

[purplebreezefairy]

My god, the cramps are awful

[Sissysicks911]

@purplebreezefairy EXCUSE ME?!?!?!?!

[Thurzotron]

I'm still doing the twist years and years later. Lux rocks heels better than most women

[haller1929]

This is the video that made Volt of Skinny Black Santa go out and some really fab sunglasses...

[nicky2coats]

i tried to do the ultra twist and sprained my butt

[Kingrob30]

Ivy says do it faster!!

[peebowl246]

sexayyyy

[Gdev02]

8 PPL CANT FUCKING TWIST!!!

[queenkat714]

@Gdev02 kuddos

[CarolinaOcelot]

He's doin' the Ultra Twist up in heaven now. Probably with Bettie Page.

[haller1929]

It's hard to believe Lux is gone...so many of my heroes are dead it's tough to swallow...

[Trigoska]

twist o'matic

[streetkleena]

God it's so shameful that genre Punk went from this to what it is today, and when the word punk is mentioned some people dread to think of bands like Green Day, and Good Charlotte.

[traciecatt]

We miss you Lux, there will never be another like you.

[MonsoonZeero]

Cramps Rules!!! Lux will never die!!!

...and Ivy is the hottest redhead in r'n'r scene!!! :D

[Kingrob30]

Nice!!!

[Mumzzen]

8 people don't know how to do the Ultra Twist!

[ElasticAsstastic]

Lux is more seductive in heels than most women I've seen in the past 20 years. Demented gender-bending creature from a better dimension.

[MmeLEnfer]

@ElasticAsstastic Ain't that the truth

[ThoseGreenDayz]

I haven't been able to get this song out of my head for days, so I decided to pick up my guitar and learn how to play it by ear. But it's still stuck in my head. xD And I love it!

[JoeStunner]

Wonder what Ivy's up to nowadays? Hope she's okay...

[saturatedfact]

soo gay

[felixmovies]

@saturatedfact

gay? it's called glam rock u moron.

[IDidItSidsWay]

@saturatedfact if you are reffering to the tight pants and heels its called fetish, bitch. and its fucking hot

[Kalinkamalia]

I never can listen to their songs just once : )

[seanthesheep666]

how can there be 8 dislikes? i agree with the420 greaser

[poobpoob1]

Stick it in! Stick it in! Stick it in! Stick it in!!!!!!!!!! Brilliant. Miss you, Lux!

[The420GREASER]

8 dislikes? really? some people are fucken lame...

[seanthesheep666]

@The420GREASER  i totally agree

[nicky2coats]

jam it in and screw it!

[takingbacksados]

Anybody have video of The Cramps playing Ultra Twist on Late with Conan O'Brien? Conan's Late Night always had the coolest musical guests.

[haller1929]

Yeah, sixty and looking like thirty....I felt terrible for Poison Ivy (Kristy)...very few guys in rock'n'roll can remain that faithful, and she worked with and loved one of the goddamned best...NO, THE GODDAMNED BEST

[MmeLEnfer]

@haller1929 I know I know poor Kristy. She was lucky to have such a dude for her own though that's for sure

[haller1929]

I would SO love to hear The Cramps versus Top 40 radio today...I have NO doubt who would win that contest...these kids don't know what they missed and are missing...I could just cry...I want a Cramps box set...ALL the songs and some live extras

[haller1929]

Skinny Black Santa is working on bringing back the legacy...we ended up sounding like the Cramps without even trying....WEIRD

[tombstonehand1]

In the words of Butthead, "these guys understand the importance of a good butt."

[ddmagee57]

This should be the national anthem.

[MmeLEnfer]

@ddmagee57 "Do the Ultra-Twist... By the Dawn's early Light..."

[p0rn0b0y69]

@mickeeandbelle ah man thats too BAD!!!  LOL

[neverback80s]

we are going to have a great time in hell with lux there !!! dance all the way

[TheBlueEyedHonky]

He was certainly the best man to ever grace high heels. That's for damn sure.

[haller1929]

Some say the Cramps sold out or "lost it" as they got older...SHIT MAN, they just got BETTER if they ever changed AT ALL...musically, they were ALWAYS tight...wish I could write something as brilliant as BIKINI GIRLS WITH MACHINE GUNS...and their cover of JAILHOUSE ROCK...oh YEAH...

[Skulldini]

@haller1929 They kinda got away from that Horror punk and gothic rockabilly sound they had in the begining and diversified a bit musicaly. Some also say that they became to much of a "comedy act" with their later stuff,.. but humor was always an aspect of their style.

[buzzersounds]

what is the model ivy guitar?

[dafindam]

RIP Lux You were the greatest

[amkariche94]

Жгут, падонки!!!!

[gdcormany]

The Luxster...none better

[meetismurder]

it hardly gets cooler than this. Missing you Lux. R.I.P.

[Skulldini]

Rest in peace Mister Lux Interior. And while all the dolts and lunkheads of this world are boo hoo hoo-ing the demise of Micheal "King of Pop" Jackson, I shall be wearing MY vail for none but the great mad daddy of the rock 'n roll netherrealm !

[JenniiRoseLove]

I've just heard their music for the first time yetserday. I fell in love.

RIP Lux.

You were a big influence.

[johnytehshit]

Lux isn t dead. The Cramps are for eternity.

[bvivers]

The greatest rocker in the universe? Course he IS. He ain't dead, he's restin'

[312miklos]

The Cramps = Always great fun ! Lux : R.I.P.

[dafindam]

I still can`t belive Lux is dead it`s just strange.

[alienator]

Man, the Cramps were everything that rock should be, and Lux, along with Poison Ivy, preached it from rock's pulpit. RIP Lux, and my condolences, Poison Ivy. I loved 'em from the first time I heard their music, and that love only grew stronger over time.

[xXxcheezwhizxXx]

They don't make a frontman like that anymore , music is doomed

[xXxcheezwhizxXx]

They don't make a frontman like that anymore , music is doomed

[cookmoore]

real Good

[riseofravens]

ya know whats fucked up? i havent listened to this band in a long time and i dont keep up with alot of music news or w/e...but ya anyways i know im late but i just found out that Lux has been dead for a year...buzzkill :/

[MmeLEnfer]

It's never the right time to find out.

[fkappreciative]

Ivy is smoking hot!

[MmeLEnfer]

I had this weird dream last night of Lux in black shiny latex... "I want that!!!"

[EvilAL13]

....I can't stop twisting!!!!

LUXxx!!!

[haller1929]

I SO want Lux's shades...so cool

[bwrpwr]

Fucking LOVE this album. Not sure I like their other works that much, but this album JAMS.

[MmeLEnfer]

'Songs The Lord Taught Us', 'Psychedelic Jungle' et al should grow on you pretty quick. If they don't, my advice is to see a doctor.

[animalmother4]

yea if not we'll put the fucking leeches on you bwrpwr

[MmeLEnfer]

Goo goo muck leeches!

[Renatoslayer]

awesome!

[MayaMeows]

I wonder why they were on the original BH 90210  but never guest starred in a John Waters movie? Curious...

[Timmybear]

@MayaMeows - Yes, given the music in early John Waters movies, they'd have fit right in.

[MmeLEnfer]

They almost did some music for a film of his, but somehow they got stopped by some business person

[MyDogsNameIsTedBundy]

UNPRECEDENTED!

[vampiremonkiesgohome]

Lux not dead...he's is just twisting a hole deep in the ground, down to hell , getting the post apocolyptic party started for the rest of us.

[jrmetmoi]

@vampiremonkiesgohome Oh yeah? Well tell him to turn down the heat when he gets there! Too hot baby!

[tasj0001]

@vampiremonkiesgohome

See y'all on the other side.

[sandrokennedys]

1898 // + // C.V .... Z N !!!!!!!!

[queenkat714]

lux was the sexiest man alive in highheels and latex lol

[NeonXtacy]

lux is the sexist dead guy lulz...

[EvilAL13]

@queenkat714 ...what about my man Pete Burns!! ; ) ...but, for serious, i'm off to do the Ultra-Twist like Lux does at 1:43!! LOL!! I can't stop twistin"!!!

[MmeLEnfer]

For sure... whatever he wore.

[Roniel81]

The Cramps rule

[ofschorchedpumpkins]

The best kinda people know ;)

[Dragslo]

Lux is the madman of rock, I really miss him, suddenly a part of the world got faded him dissappearing, how come doesnt people know about this man and his band?...shame!

[dude572]

Great Rockers

[dinomak1970]

It is said that 2 outta 10 girls will do the ultra twist. I like those odds, but we need more ladies. Come on let's twist.

[TARANTULO666]

is that Bela at 2:13?

[MmeLEnfer]

HAPPY 63rd LUX

[wildfire19861987]

Butthead: Jam it in and screw it up. Do the ultra twist.

Beavis: Boy this is some naaaaaasty stuff.

Butthead: Yeah. These dudes know the importance of a good butt.

Haven't seen this video in years.

[Roniel81]

@wildfire19861987 , exactly , the B&B reminiscence is so right )) same with me ))

[deadmanssss]

excelent band we party'd big time in 80's as psychobillies to these

[swordfishmatador]

I have had many fantasies about Poison Ivy!

[Skulldini]

This is where The Cramps kinda changed their musical sound, going from gothic rock'abilly ( primarily ) to kinde of hard-edged sleazy biker rock,..but it was still cool though. Whatever style they did, they realy did it well and made it their own.

[jhonwanegasey]

it was not called gothic it was called bat cave

[jdukulele]

The Cramps will live forever. R.I.P. Lux.

Bad music for bad people.

[Skulldini]

I must be a pretty bad person,..indeed a downright horrible person,..cause it's certainly for ME!!

[jdukulele]

"Bad music for bad people" is the title of one of their cds that includes the hit "Garbage man". The Cramps are real rock 'n' roll. Pure, raw, and bare bones. I've been a fan since I saw them at CBGB's in the late 70's. The coolest husband and wife team that there could ever be.

[MmeLEnfer]

Bad never sounded so good.

[deathrockunion]

come on guys..lets twist..twist for lux

[dafindam]

Is Lux dead?

[renrengrin]

blessing the undead? that's the only way to kill undead :( !

[MmeLEnfer]

Nothing can destroy that man! ;)

[mrozco]

Yes. Lux is deceased. He died in February of this year of an aortic dissection in Glendale, California.

[gatofritz]

¡Está bien chingón el punkabilly de esta bandota!

¡Viva el Punk!

[LimestoneKid]

R.I.P Lux

You were a freakin' musical genius.

[surfinzombies]

cool vid ! !

[fernandosagara]

Lux didn`t die, just got back to his homeland.

[Taktwo2]

He is currently in Hell showing the Devil how to rock 'n' roll.

R.I.P. Lux

[haller1929]

@Taktwo2 oh yeah...I'm sure of that HA HA ...Lux Interior and Drew Hayes and Charles Bukowski are ALL missed...all my heroes are dead...this sucks

[ucihapokujin]

@Taktwo2 you wanna know why he's in hell?

it's because god's a dick and killed him

[mindyzachbaubles]

@fernandosagara yeah hes still rocking with shades on

[ZLUGGO]

True entertainers. Great tunes.

[mcteeth]

i think this song is about doin' it.

[FinkPwns]

Obviously.

Stick it in and twist!  Jam it in and screw it! =]

[gorblimey61]

You must be a lot smarter than the average bag of rocks.

[mcteeth]

in that i'm capable of irony?

[ckngxcalbr]

I...still...cannot believe he died....

[drgangrene]

freakin awesome band! Cramps rule!

[NekoGirlSammy666]

stick it in. stick it in. stick it in.

[NecroWhore]

where's all the naked twisters? aww...

[spacelf]

I love this Ultra twist. "The Ultra Twist is here to stay, makes tomorrow look like yesterday" - that's simply brilliant.

Thank you Lux - may you be twisting on some other planet.

And thank you Ivy - Together you and Lux and your bands made some of the best rock and roll music in rock and roll history.

[sonicjay007]

ALWAYS..~♫"Spellbinding" & "Magical"♫

[thomasmantellwilliam]

LOWER AND SLOWER!!!

[Kerchinga]

RIP Lux

[bronzino01]

MTV fascists! I never saw this! Chubby Checker eat your heart out!

[ClashCityRockers0]

Tragically, too late to spank Lux with a maraca :'(

[kink66]

One of the coolest bands ever!

[ClashCityRockers0]

They rock and they roll. RIP Erick

[poppy757]

These guys should have done the sound track to the Men in Black movies. HOLLWOOD ARE YOU LISTENING?

(probably not))

[pressman95]

[EmmaIsTheGreatest]

[dasvestis]

lux doesn't like peace n silence mate...

[poddel]
