@KaOtin This was shot on a Canon MVX4i camcorder using the built-in mic.

I used to sing this song when I was stocking shelves at the grocery store, ironically stocking banana chips.

Naoko seems to have a thing about food and animals. What's up with that? Also, I never noticed it before but Ritsuko has buck teeth. Maybe we should all donate some money to get her some braces. Naoko can write a song about it, something besides food and animals! Our next song is called, No More Buck Toothed Bassist.

GREAT!

the Japanese female Ramones...

[KamenRiderNecro]

So cute and happy! Yes, you can tell they're having a grand old time up there playing their songs, and the crowd is awesome too. Every time I watch these clips or hear their songs I always end up with a huge silly grin plastered all over my face. This is a *good* thing!

They make me smile too and I dig the new lineup! The real question is how can anyone NOT love these girls? Their music and personalities are so infectious!

great video!! amazing band seen them last week there really tight now, the bass player is out of this world, her stage precence is insane,you can tell she loves her job as does the rest of the band, i love the fact they stay after the show and meet and sign, take pics with there fans, 1 of a kind band!!!!

[iloveshonenknife1]

@cbilly9 Hate to shatter your image of them but it's a marketing gimmick! They are not just signing autographs and taking pictures with fans, they are also selling SK merchandise. It's all part of the act. Buy this teeshirt and we will autograph it for you. Buy this photo of the band and we will autograph it for you, get the picture? Excuse the pun.

[chickeee]

@iloveshonenknife1 they will sign anything you want or have and you can have a pic with them without buying anything

[skywalker74]

One of the best songs about fruits. :)

[bobfrombarstow]

[ShonenAltec]

Thank you for posting this!

Can't get enough.....more recent Shonen Knife please!

They were so much better with Michi and Atsuko. I grew up on these guys. I love them. Naoko kicks ass.

[satomiwa]

I've been a fan since 1989 and I just saw them in Toronto on Sunday night with the new lineup and they were GREAT! Ritsuko is such a rock star, I think her energy has reinvigorated Naoko. I love Michie and Atsuko, but the other night was the best I've ever seen them. Etsuko's an amazing drummer. I never thought they'd be as good after Michie left, but I was wrong. Naoko rules!
