My name is Bobby Ben. Once, at a conference I was a part of, the host mispronounced my name and called me Bobby Brown. This song was stuck in my head for the next week.
I vaguely remember seeing a video of zappa sitting bored through a chamber classical concert, and then he was allowed onstage with solitary piano accompaniment and sang "Bobby Brown" to the disgust of everyone in the room, does anyone have/remember this????
It was in the middle of one of the zappa documentaries i watched on youtube.... it was great and I never forgot the scene but there are too many docs now for me to sit through to find it again haha
Can anyone tell me, is this sing about a fictional character or is Bobby Brown someone Zappa met at some point. Im curious but have searched google and cant seem to find anything about the songs origins. Thank you
"Jock" is a term in the U.S. used for people who are majorly into athletics, the term's usually used for high schoolers. A group of kids who hang around and are all on the baseball team and like to lift weights and such might be referred to as "the jocks".
Guys a little confession. I have never listened to Zappa, probably coz everyone that knows something about music told me that I should (and I tend to be a little stubborn). What i wanna know is where i should start..keep in mind that i need something that will get me interested in his music.. Please help. By the way.. i love this song
I love Apostrophy... short and fun... Give a shot.
Frank Zappa is kinda frustrating to start with because he has too many albums and they are in many different styles, not all are good imo but thats a matterof taste.
My faiv's are Joe's Garage, Apostrophy and I have afew other lives that I like.
Whatever you do don't miss out on the Buwanna Dick songs ~.^
I heard Joe's garage and liked it.. I red the story behind the album, so I think Im gonna start from there. Although I cant find nothing related to Buwanna Dick songs. Thanx so much, I appreciate it.
P.S. Damn right is frustrating.. the man has over 70 albums
ach, das ist kein original Zappa, zwar sein berühmtestes Werk, aber ist bei weitem nicht sein bestes! Passt meiner Meinung nach nicht in seine Discography
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Womit Zappa bewiesen hat, dass man mit eingängiger Melodie und einem Bullshittext einen Smasher landet und keiner Sau fällt es auf. Die Musikindustriekritik vom feinsten......

i live with 4 people from germany and it seems to depend on where ur from any where north like deusbers sp? seem to say penis...any way its a moot poit in this song as she sais maby later ill rape her so i dnt think the meening changes much about the song
Me and Dan used to play this song at Circuit City car audio room in 1991. Lakeland Fla.Store 867. Well I got fired and Dan got religion. Political Correctness what would we do with out you?
"The Bill O'Reilly Theme Song"- real mature, loser.
Anyway, what a great song. Sheik Yerbouti was a great album, too (pronounced "Shake Your Booty", parodying KC & The Sunshine Band, and Disco in general).
hahahahhahhaahah this song rules!!! :D i heard that
Frank Zappa wrote this song because the music company had complain him for he couldnt write some good music.
and the song Bobby Brown tells about a guy he was the cutest boy in town had a fast car and he was rich then he meet a cheerleader but struggle and fuck with that guy name Freddie. the song is about homo sexuell and also about America! Oh god iam the American Dream i do not think iam to extreme!
frank zappa ,like midnight oil,refused to sell the souls to the comercail radio stations for popularity but still shone through in the public domain,through strength in sales
4. then paste this to 4 other video's, if you do this your crush will kiss you on the nearest friday! But if you read this and did not paste this, then you will have very bad luck
The visuals are in the lyrics.
