I love Stray Cats and this song and equally love playing it on guitar...although I find it somewhat disconcerting that my mum has photos of them from a concert she went to as an older teenager. ಠ_ಠ
Fucking brian setzer is one hell of a guitar player. I know this song doesnt showcase it but I saw him live once and he fucking lit the stage on fire.
i know what you mean. i play alto sax and i fail epically at guitar hero and i also play guitar but some of my friends play it but not because they think they are cool but just to have fun. but i have more fun on sax since i don't fail epically on sax
My son was 2 or 3 years old when this came out. By the end of 12 hour drive to no. ca. he knew this song by heart. He sang it for his grandma word for word.He is 31 now still loves the Stray Cats.
I play this all the time on Guitar Hero on Tour. ;] It's located in the Greek Arena. It depends on your point of view but Guitar Hero shouldn't be a n insult to musicians since, it is a game and it meant for the enjoyment of music.
@SkaroTV What is funny to me is how people seem to think that those who play guitar hero, rockband, or whatever you like actually think they are playing a real instrument. and then you have the guys who obsess over getting 100% on every song and even go so far as to post videos on youtube about it. in a way, that kinda validates the original idiot's preconception.
you don't see? It's obvious... it makes many of you players of it think you can understand the first thing of playing music... when you don't know think one.
Though many of you do think you know things
and others try to attempt horrible garage bands....
guitar hero is kinda insulting to musicians, but then again, there are some people who cant play an instrument quite well and guitar hero is there way of playin music, then so be it.
guitar hero is fun as hell. i play it all the time, and i know that im not a musician, i dont pretend to be a superstar musician, and i have no desire to be a musician. its way easier than the real thing, but its fun
its pathetic, people pretending to be superstar musicians. quote from south park episode Guitar Queer-o "If they put 1/2 the time they do into that game into a real instrument who knows what they'd acomplish." that goes for everyone in my opinion.
Im my opinion Guitar Hero is a way for friends to get together, let loose and have fun. It's a game for God's sake. People who play it aren't trying to be something they aren't, they're just having a bit fun. Apparently REAL musicians don't know how to do that. And I play a saxophone, a real instrument. Btw, Stray Cats and this song pwn.
I think people only have a problem with a small fraction of guitar hero players, the ones who get good at the game and then act like they have a real talent. Then that stereotype gets cast onto everyone who plays the game. No one should have a problem with people who just get together to have fun playing the game.
i just as well totally agree guitar hero games witht he guitar are very VERY different from an accual guitar... im really good at guitar hero but SUCK at the real guitar XD o well.. just a game..
@Thundercloud94 most of that is true....but its kinda downgrading to us guitarists, because poeple play a game, and think they then have the skill to play real guitar, or that guitar hero is harder that real guitar
@redstone95 I'm a real guitarist myself, so I know where you're coming from. You just have to ignore those people and remember that what you have is real talent. Just let those people bask in their "talent" and remember that it's not going to get them anywhere in life.
@Thundercloud94 i play bass in a real band so i'm a real musician i guess... and the three of us play guitar hero all the time for fun... so yea... agree about the Cats though...
my fiend loved this song, then one day, i was playing my other friend's DS, playing guitar hro. I came across it. told my first friend it was on there. she got a DS with gh for cristmas ROCK AND CATS ARE DA MEANING OF LIFE
Love this song and the band, but can there be any clearer proof that THE '80s WERE ALL ABOUT THE HAIR? I mean, those guys could be in Flock of Seagulls with those do's!
