Whoever listens to this entire clip...and can't see what the fuss is about, I have bad news. Mommy's never coming home and daddy still likes to drink.
The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin' That's what I said The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand Or so I have read My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo Big bottom, big bottom Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em Big bottom drive me out of my mind How could I leave this behind? I met her on Monday, 'twas my lucky bun day You know what I mean I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day You know what I mean
Its funny that they have better songs than most of the musicians out today...BUT they were suposed to be a crappy 80's rock band when the film came out
How is it possible that these guys were struggling, even fictionally?!? They're fuckin' awesome!!! PS: if Pink Floyd had the flying pig, then Spinal Tap should have had the "pink torpedo" floating gracefully through the air at stadium concerts. :-)
@ermonski You missed the point of this movie. It was making fun of how pompous Hard Rock and Prog Rock bands where becoming. It wasn't glorifying the golden age classic rock.
Really? The film doesn't really seem to have much to do with Prog Rock to me. I mean, even the Stonehenge bit which I originally thought was a dig at prog is based on a Black Sabbath set piece.
Well, yeah, they don't sound like Spinal Tap. They sound like a hard rock band. They definitely don't sound proggy though... they don't have anywhere near enough keyboard solos, plus their longest song is like 5 minutes long! They sound maybe a bit like half-prog bands like Styx, Boston or something, but comparing them to Yes or Jethro Tull doesn't yield many similarities.
Not sure if you are old enough to remember "the monkeys" they where a manufactured sudopop group from the 60s. Syndications reruns lasted into the early 80s. The members were picked because they were good singers and musicians.
They had all the talent of a group, but they where never counted as one because they where a studio/marketed construct, this went on after they start to produce their own music. Take most "artist" of today and they could do nothing for themselves.
@dudemannelson they came out with a follow up album full of jazz oddysees and tracks that werent in the movie and did a few tours, but long story short outside the movie they were pretty bad
The cat who plays David St Hubbins, lead vocalist here, is also the Policeman in the movie 'Planes Trains and Automobilies' when they are driving the burnt-out car and are pulled over.
The greatest heavy metal band that never was... isn't that their motto? or is it one of them... These guys under-rated... check out their latest stuff some new, some updated remixes, worth it in my opinion...
GREAT TUNE...beats the heck outta QUEEN"S song "fat bottomed girls" I swear they ripped off the idea from Spinal Tap...."big game is waiting there inside her tights, big bottom, big bottom, talk about my mudflaps, my girls got em" Hilarious,,,,,BRILLIANT...what a great movie and band....
I remember being only about 7 and my dad showing me this song.I learned all of the lyrics and would sing it 24/7 of course not knowing what it meant,I remember my ma screaming "STOP SINGING THAT RIGHT NOW!!" and now 15,I still sing it just to piss her off.
This is one of those bits that I've heard dozens of times. Just when I think It doesn't phase me anymore I listen again, and am in awe of how ingenious the lyrics are.
How could I leave this BEHIND!? haHAHA!! STILL...after all these years...it STILL is funny as HELL!! Any one else notice that they are ALL playing a Bass guitar? But...that is ALL a part of Spinal Taps GENIUS! Right?
My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights... big game is waiting there in her tights... dammit they don't write 'em like that anymore! ST were classic, but also check out Bad News (British, from the Comic Strip series. Released about the same time but overshadowed by ST).
