[marc80s]

@devilinmyear Kate likes chicks.

[blackpeter70]

@marc80s Who'da guessed, I like girls, too! They're awesome. See, we're perfectly matched. Team change, ahoy!

[MrRichief1962]

@devilinmyear I think they are in their 60s and got heavy.. but i thought cindy was real sexy back then

[DellBattery]

I dream about you Kate :)

[DellBattery]

B52s rocked back then and they're still hot JUST AN AWESOME GROUP !!!!!!!!!

[BrissoParrothead]

I love this - always makes me think of Ginger, Maryann and The Professor find music and mind altering drugs!

[MegaFunk81]

kate pierson geniaaaaaaa!!!!!

[TheLighters68]

This is just brilliant and fantastic quality.................they really are in a class of their own and I cannor believe Kate pierson is 63 this year

[bfandreasyt]

So much style!

Carefull, mate. You might drown a dozen donkeys in that.

There's no doubt about it: the B52's are art.

[Fabianoangelica]

They had great fun on everything they did!!! Great times!!!

[WSZiP1992]

perfect song !!!!



[paquitomoralles]

was the girl in white anorexic?

[corbyuk99]

Kate ..... godess

[Loosergoat]

Fantastic!

[gmansi]

@fulconer Kate is... the one on the keyboard?

[agt462]

@fulconer your such an idiot!!!!

[agt462]

@fulconer Tell your mom to stop calling me, i hate that fat bitch!!!

[Jefgg]

@fulconer Kate brings the heat. But Cindy looks very hot in this video. It's a tough call.

[jSNATCHGRABv]

[Edsterbolt1620]

2:40 so many uses for duct tape !!

[gmansi]

@Edsterbolt1620 yes ha ha ha ha

[Gina97xls]

I miss you Ricky!

[TonyTuthill]

Awesome. Been waiting for this one awhile. Thank you!

[newnewly]

...w/out "modern art" there would have been no rock and roll. w/out the B-52s, there would have been no now.

[TheStrainers]

kick ass B52's!

[jaysen71]

Too the hater's--jealous much ?!!!  You missed out...Ha Ha !!

[critic480]

Heads up fans .The idiot is gonna post some more of his stupid shit any time now.

[paulocesarmacedo1]

good music

[titusand]

This band has talent to BURN!

[grease1980]

I love this song !!!



[leonakita]

Big deal !... punk twist on surf music yields 15 minutes of fame to flaming faggot and fat chick.... NEXT !!!

[Anthony5217]

@leonakita Fuck you what do you know PUNK! you must be a young buck!

[leonakita]

@Anthony5217 What in particular do you find inaccurate about my comment?

[critic480]

@leonakita 15 minutes of fame ? Actually, they were a BIG DEAL ! Had you not been existing with your head up your ass all this time .You would have known better than to spew some stupid shit like that .Do go fuck yourself .

[leonakita]

@critic480 In the real time continuum they are but a speck, EINSTEIN!.... and a faggy dorky speck at that! They sucked in 1980 and they still suck now. Musak for geeks, nerds and faggots!...end-of-story!

[critic480]

@leonakita Geeks ,Nerds and Faggots ? You are obviously one of the aforementioned .... Or you wouldnt be here .....Just reply if you want one of us to hit you in the shitter. We're all queers . HEY EVERYONE ...lets pile on this guy and knock the lining out of his poopshoot ! I think he just dont know how to ask for it.

[suckmybat]

@critic480 I tend to agree, this @leonakita is just begging to brown somebodys bell end. Maybe he was touched by his old man, maybe he did the touching, but either way he liked it, and how he hates himself for being a sword swallower. You see a lot of it these days, he's the product of his own upbringing. Poor little fella despises his own gaiety.

[critic480]

@suckmybat Myself ,I cant take my eyes off Kate and Cindy...I get no "gay" vibe off this at all.Just a fantasy of how I'd love to have been around that "scene" back in the day.I'd have been all over Kate or Cindy....Two of the hottest and coolest women to ever grace a rock and roll stage ! Maybe our bell end, browning buddy needs to wipe the doo doo from his mouth and look at the girls instead of the boys.

[JURYJOHMZOMBIE]

@leonakita your the reason why humans have such a bad name

[Aggiemcdee]

Beautiful HQ! Best on youtube, thanks for uploading!

[VigaveFoc]

Em 1997, uma garota chamada Lauren estava caminhando em uma floresta, e de repente desapareceu, ninguém nunca encontrou-a até 2000, quando uma outra menina chamada Maria encontrou o corpo e marcas em seu peito, disseram: Não era bonita o suficiente "e, agora, você leu isso, ela aparecerá em seu espelho dizendo que você não é bonito o suficiente e matá-lo! (pela forma como o menina chamada Mary morreu pouco depois) Para se salvar colar este para 5 outros vídeos é verd

[DiegoMercurio]

Espectacular video y es increible como a través de los años estas dos mujerzotas se han puesto mas bellas... la magia de hacer buena música. Algo que me encanta de Katie es la expresión cuando toca el teclado y ni que decir de la del vestido blanco, es como si estuviera en una rumba siendo y a la vez no parte de la banda, parece una fan que se subió al escenario. Afortunadamente no era fan...

[mimosf]

The greatest thing.... An effing forbidden driveway. Really. it's so good

[stuBhound69]

Rock on Cindy and Fred And All.

[mm007b5547]

Mint

[prunepurple]

fantastic !

[cuteepatootie]

Cindy Wilson is a babe.

[bobbconner1]

RealityBroadcasting actually bhe looks more like John Holmes..and he had more women then you will ever have and he had a rally big ...so take your homophobic comments and listen to ABBA...

[bobbconner1]

could you please post the live hd version of this song i sent you...help another fan get some hits and spread this great bands ability to impress..live 30 years later...bob

love your channel

[retroj25]

@bobbconner1

What did u send me ?? ... only just reading this comment & I can't see anything!

[bobbconner1]

@retroj25 I sent you 2 videos from in front of the front row..From the house of blues Chicago HD STEREO and they were great.. You have the choice to post them just hit yes

[mrdiamondheadTV]

GENIUS!

[ffairlane57]

Angle-shaped shoes and Ray-Ban Wayfarers.

[Thermodynamic]

@1RealityBroadcasting - grow up

[mrjohn1964]

E pensar que lá pelos idos de 1982 quando eu comecei a curtir Rock, achava B-52's (ou Bife com chuchu) chato. Hoje, além de achar bem legalzinho as músicas deles, se tomarmos como base o cenário musical atual, eles ficariam num pedestal bastante elevado.

[ANDREROSALVOS]

@mrjohn1964 , eu sabia que era música prá dançar, fiquei bastante chocado com o impacto que esse vídeo me causou, por causa do visual. Na época, estávamos aprendendo o que era ser "New Wave" e B52's era o símbolo dessa geração colorida, divertida e eletrizada.

[Johnny5Bench]

It was "Movember" all year 'round for Fred back then!

[STRANGEJAMES85]

Keith only looks about five years older now.

[GentleTheater]

If you reverse the video and sync it with the original audio the guitarist is playing the riff right!

[gmansi]

@GentleTheater I dont understand so, the guitarrist is "playing" on reverse?

[awayawah]

i like the duct tape on that blokes guitar.

[Dontkickshitfoot]

@awayawah its so his strap doesnt fall off while hes playing lots of guitar players do that

[xhansxCastrox]

If not realized but the minute 2:36 and 2:40 ubo think a mistake and put a face hahahahaha Trollface

[panther105]

Just one word........Cindy.........sigh­!!!!!!

[Jauckor]

Whos that girl in white dress?

She looks georgeous as heaven.

[aedgar5000]

@Jauckor Cindy Wilson

[123deerfest]

Bill Nye the science guy could really sing back then

[NewWaveFan1]

They came to Idaho a few weeks ago people went nuts when they sang this.

[festiveintoxications]

When I first heard this song I illegally downloaded it from Napster and would play every morning before high school. Then I purchased their greatest hits because they deserved all the royalties.

[ReinaDido]

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

[FernandoPixies]

cindy is skinny

[Rodjeure]

@FernandoPixies And now she's fat....

But still she's the best !!!!!

[carlosgaio20]

I LOVE this song!

[UltimateEnd622]

So thats what Peg Bundy did before Married With Children.

[rodup88]

@UltimateEnd622

Yea! And shes really pissed off.

[metamorfoggie]

they're soo random.

[reissue]

That thump, woah.

[pucara7777]

Just i love them

[theirishinc]

2:40 Duct tape on the guitar strap...lol

[ch1nmuzak]

@theirishinc LOL - watched this at least 50X and never noticed that. Goood catch!

[jeromehazelwood]

cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cindy cijndy cindy cindy cindy cinndy cindy cindy cindy cindy

[SOUFRANK28]

i LOVE THIS GROUP! I WAS CHILD WHEN IT DID SUCESS! I LOVE B-52'

[asther113]

[themainproblem]

They will always be one of my very favorites!

[linkin622]

saw them last night they were freaking AWESOME

[flagondani]

New Wave



[moakley67]

1 week from today I get to see them live! Soooo excited! And hopefully they play

this one!

[PaulaWilliams29]

One of the best songs ever!

[aryke1]

How adorable was Ricky?!



[gypsyThree97]

Is that duct tape holding Rickys guitar strap?

[karac833]

who played bass?

[brucedburns]

@karac833 Kate used to play the bass line on the keyboard.

[YZippy]

@karac833 she used a fender keyboard bass. Similar to the rig Ray Manzarek used in The Doors. A combo Organ with a keyboard bass.....no traditional bass player. I think they used a Vox Continental combo organ

[gmansi]

@YZippy Great info, thanks

[gmansi]

@karac833 the girl on the top keyboard, is a preloaded bass and she play the notes

[rodup88]

respect the stache please...

[Chicagotarsier]

Fred, there is a cheap toupee on your lip :)) PFFFT give it up

Kate >>>>>>> Cindy

[arealOpia1991]

fuck Cyndy had rhythm like no other no other in the band ... that girl could move .... LOVE HER DANCING esp but fuck LOVE ALL THE BANDS dancing as a whole X)))

[roadwarr]

How many cans of aeorsol each to set up those hair-dos?

Bad Cindy! Bad Kate!

(Earth butts in)

"Hey you! Leave those girls alone! When I rock to their beat and hear their harmonious voices, I make more than enough Ozone to patch the atmosphere just fine.

Now shut up and get back to the video."

(Earth bopsand sings)

"You Beddah BewaaaaYaaaaahhh..."

[themaximusdudeus]

I'm forever the Kate fan, but when you see Cindy dancing you always wonder what it would have been like to get ahold of that live wire...

[Themplo]

One person don´t like music!!!

[ashanem565]

ryan, buy the cd!

[60jomer]

was ricky the youngest? and four strings, or is it an open tuning? this band was really ahead of its time and I would like to marry Cindy, no matter her age, her barefoot dancing really blows my mind.

[franvi77]

@60jomer Cindy was indeed the youngest by far, when they began Kate had 28 years old (the oldest member) while Cindy had 19

[60jomer]

@franvi77 I really appreciate your comment.

[RayVvbN]

SOO GOOD ... I WOULD LIKE TO GET THE MUSIC IN BETTER HQ AUDIO

[glover519]

i cant decide whose hotter...Kate or Cindy? nevermind, both

[nicoleAshlind1]

haha hes got duct tape on his guite strap:)

[AShredingOdyssey]

1:08- 1:10

Epic Stare.

[kakashi76767]

D B Cooper lives in his own private idaho.

[panther105]

Cindy......still a brunette, still wearing pretty clothes, still very pretty. Kate's definitely gone over the edge here...although that was the intention. Cindy is a dream.....sigh.....

[letusbelennon]

I showed this to my friend and this was the conversation we had after he watched it.

Him: god

im sick now

Me: ?

HIm: They wore the nerdiest clothes.

Me: You're one to talk.

[8wirral8]

I know it wasn't until after Ricky passed away that they employed bass guitar to their music but I clearly hear a bass in this song. The track must have been layed down seperately...

[PumpkinPuffer]

@8wirral8 Bass was played by Kate on a Bass Keyboard. You can see her playing it with her left hand.

[gmansi]

@PumpkinPuffer Right, on 0:38 is clear how she play the bass lines

[DellBattery]

B-52 Rocks :) and this video is awesome quality compared the the others

[quickshade1]

Anyone know what glasses the drummer is wearing, I found a turtleneck and suit just like that at a goodwill store and want the matching glasses to go with them, They look gold rimmed with either a mirror finish or black finish. I'm going to dress up and hit up a party like that guy.

[epsteinsmutha1]

Damn, Cindy was so hot back then! Kate looks like Ms. Yvonne!

[BEATLESRAWSOME97]

@epsteinsmutha1 I KNOW RIGHT CINDY IS SEXY

[Thermodynamic]

@epsteinsmutha1 - more like Peg Bundy, unfortunately... :)

[epsteinsmutha1]

@Thermodynamic Yes, I suppose it could go either way. Mind you, so did many of the members of the band.

[epsteinsmutha1]

Damn, Cindy was so hot back then!

[pogoyt]

Idaho is a reference to all the white supremacists in that state. I know that for sure.

If I remember the whole story right, Schneider wrote it after encountering some racist jerk. As in the jerk, who did not live in the actual state Idaho, lived in his own Private Idaho.

[felipedepaula2]

Not that I'm putting down the other members, because the whole band is great, but Kate Pierson is the best. The weirdo beehive hairdo that is her trademark.

[media6488]

This video makes me jump around like a wild potato.

[johnnyfarout]

russetts are my private idaho

[franKuaz]

Very Cool <3 n.n!

[roboroschi]

I beg you pardon. I write from Italy. Could someone explain me what does it means the title? I know that Idaho is a State of USA. And i know even the sense of the word: private. But this words togheter, for me are really misterious. Private Idaho is the same thing that Private Ohio. Or not? Please, explain me. But don't use slang or other strange words. Thank you so much.

[CartoonsAndGameShows]

@roboroschi I think being in a "Private Idaho" means that you are so "deep into your own thoughts". At least, thats what I think....

[roboroschi]

@CartoonsAndGameShows

Thanks a lot.

But then why don't use another State?

For example "Private Arkansas".

The mistery continues . . .

[Citrohan]

@roboroschi  Because Arkansas doesnt rhyme with patio or potato. Its easier to rhyme words that end in a vowel sound than words that end in a consonant sound.

[roboroschi]

@Citrohan

You're very kind.

Thanks a lot.

[Luciepeacock]

@roboroschi It's a little hard to explain why I think they used Idaho (other than it goes with the rhythm) unless you've actually spent time in Idaho. It's a beautiful and very interesting place. Not many big cities, and those aren't all that big. Lots of farms, and some very diverse ways to look at things.

[roboroschi]

@Luciepeacock

Maybe i've understood.

Idaho it's like Eden.

Right?

[gills4thrills]

@Luciepeacock - It means "living inside an Idaho potato", or a very small space. Metaphorically, it refers to someone who is not paying attention because he is daydreaming, or under the influence, or otherwise wrapped up within his own very narrow sphere of interest or frame of reference

[luisbottle]

They weren't decent enough to give the girls microphones...
