gotta admit... I was only drawn to B-52's to being with because John Lennon said Yoko's music was similar. If it's good enough for Yoko, it's good enough for me. And...why the hating people? She made him happy.
Drugs? I don't think so; not a cue was missed here. These poeple were definately AT WORK. Watch the way the dollies hit off each other to make sure they're in-synch. These are professionals giving a highly charged, energetic performance. Good-on-em! A bit more rehearsal and it would be seamless.
B-52s on drugs, thats funny... Probably why they are the only band who are in their late 50s/ early 60s, yet with all the touring, lack of sleep and proper schedules, for the last 30 years, they still look and act incredibly young, are incredibly professional and put on amazing shows to this day. You want to attribute it to drugs? Something wrong with kids today when anything creative or different has to be attributed to drug use. Indoctrination, tsk tsk.
Had never seen a live version of this song. All those animal noises they make could be difficult to duplicate, but they do it great. Can´t be still while listening to this!
I love this song. Peppy. My nephew would stand still and then spaz out jumping and wiggling to this song when he was in his walker. He now looks a lot like the lead guitarist
@PrinceOfThehippies that was the most creepiest sound ive heard in like ever. it sounded like she was trying to sound like a dolphin but failing miserably lolz.
@IVIaster0fIVIuppets Her name is Cindy Wilson, her brother Ricky is on guitar. He passed from aids RIP. Drummer Keith Strickland took over guitar. They're still touring go to B52s.com. BTW Cindy Is so cool met her last year, very humble. LOVE THE 2s.
@javson1 Her given name is Cynthia Leigh Wilson. In another post she was described as a `rare and ancient soul`.....beautiful. Bear in mind that this clip is over 30 yrs old :)
WOW! Hell yeah! Love the B52's. Listening to a lot of B52's, Blondie, Hey You!, Joan Jett, No Doubt, and Patti Smith. We need more rockin' girls in 2011 !!!!
Hey You! is still pretty new, but they're waaaay dope. But they've got a cute chick singer and she ROCKS hard! you should check em out...

@Theninja114 They did remove the middle strings BUT they also tuned the low E to a C, A down to a G, B down to a F and high E down to a G#! It's so good!
Each band that formed in Athens at that time around 1980 had their own different sound. The B-52s definitely had their own weird vibe w/ the '60s feel.
bizarre but brilliant.
