  • bizarre but brilliant.

  • 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.

  • Such an awful song

  • Death to America

    And butter sauce

    Don't boil me

    I'm still alive

    Iraq Lobster

    Iraq Lobster

  • There goes a narwhal...

    The awesome 52's...

  • Comment removed

  • FUCK PETER GRIFFIN & FUCK YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!! B52 doesnt need your IGNORANT shitty presence or comments ..

  • Death to America, and butter sauce, don't boil me... I'm still alive!!

  • Masiaooooo bueno este video!!!!

  • Awesome!!!... Rock&Roll ever!!!

  • they were so high!!!!!!!!!! its good to know now they perform drug free

  • Like because of Peter Griffin

  • Ok I heard this song on rockband. But it's official . . . They were definitely on something when they made this song. But it always makes me laugh

  • i wonder how much acid these guys took befor making the video

  • In soviet russia rock lobster rocks you

  • The only reason I know this exists is because of Family Guy. Thank you Peter Griffin.

  • Always needs more Cowbell!

  • MORE COWBELL!!!!

  • Needs more cowbell

  • I loved it but it is more of a 70's song because it is from late 1969

  • it's so hot when the 2 chicks sing into the microphone at the same time!

  • those girls were cute.. would have loved to hang with them for.. longs times

  • WHY DID THE OTHER ONE CLOSED HIS ACCOUNT

    WHYY

  • Lots of fun this band and this video!!

  • Archaeologists finding the fossilized remains of surfer rock.

  • 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.

  • Outstanding

  • no wonder family guy did not include the full song

  • There are very very few songs that started an entire genre, and this is one of them.

  • there's really no telling what drugs inspired this masterpiece...

  • 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.

  • @thejakeyl88 i am with u! love them!

  • if it wasn't for drugs things like this wouldn't exsist!!!

  • More cowbell!

    

  • YEAHHHHH!!!! *monkey dance*

    type in "hey you band taking over"

  • Amazing!

  • string positioning on the black guitar is odd, its like they took 2 out. Also needs more cowbell

  • @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!

  • @cougarethan thank you so much for that tuning!

  • Lol at 1:37 to 1:40 XD

  • @Jopari444 wrong song bud

  • @Jopari444 well i saw it....i guess i meant wrong reference...

  • 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.

  • my brother saw them 2nite at the nmtl festival de jazz , and he said that it nwas an awesome show

  • Thumb up if you have seen then today at the festival de jazz de Montreal. Me yes and that was awesome.

  • rock lobster !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
