got teased SO HARD for liking Devo back in grade school... but i stuck by 'em, eliminated the ninnies and the twist, whipped it good, got the girl I wanted, exercized my freedom of choice and NEVER turned around... and i think that's good.. I'm 41 years old and STILL Devo.
@blueneon I'm just turned 60 and I'm still a DEVO-TEE. They are well beyond cool. Beyond alternative rock. They don't take any of it seriously, least of all themselves. No Rock. No Roll. No Rules. We are all DEVO, just ask Charles Darwin. 'Mad' is the new 'Sane'.
The first time I heard this song was in the movie,"Thrashin"(1986),when I was a young teen in Jr High(1st time ever seen the music video to this song,too).
in another 20-30 years we'll still be listening to this and a handfull of the other old school bans. xfactor/got talent/britney bieber gaga perry peas will have been well forgotten by then :) thank god for the good stuff(pun intended) m50
@mickeymousebiker1 Haha I wonder what music they listen to. Is music even ever referenced in the show? I wonder if they listen to synth music like Devo and Kraftwerk.
@RukiKatiakicz I'd say they would listen to DEVO and Kraftwerk (especially Sheldon, because his brain is wired for such music). All of those guys would be old enough to remember the synth sounds of the early 1980s. One never knows. DEVO might do an appearance on The Big Bang Theory. It would be fun.
@mickeymousebiker1 yes i agree....ps have a look on their kitchen wall there is a sign that says mondodevo or something i wonder if iots to do with devo
@mfactor88 It might have something to do with them, since "mondo" means "world" and DEVO stands for "de-evolution." These days, the world is in a state of "de-evolution" -- is it not?
Possibly the most influential song for new wave band Devo. It held high aspects of techno, mixed with the craziness of showing strange videos. Plus it was good to see them without the derby beehive hats.
A great campaign song. A song for the everyman. The common man rises from the ashes of poverty and despair. Third party, NOW, if we want to save what's left of America!
why are some of these videos not available on mobile? what's with all of the discrimination about? why can't people enjoy these videos on mobile as much as others watch them on computer online?
There's some things that you can do without....Just not DEVO.
Like many, my musical taste covers a wide assortment of goo. Whatever the song, if I like it a lot I tend to over play it. It may take a few years before I get to where I stop playing it. Where just thinking of it is the same as though I just heard it. But after nearly 30 yrs, this song has yet to reach that point. Each & every time I hear it, it makes me smile & move.
Everybody wants a good thing ...this is a good thing. Thanks!
