the dude in the video is a nerd-ed up danko jones & the woman is director floria sigisimondi. she cuffs him to the bathroom sink & gives him the crab shampooing. I remember a line too, "The Only Dusty I know is Springfield".
I emailed scott from the band on myspace to see what ken is up to. Apparently he's in sudbury with a new baby. it would be awesome if these guys got back together.
I heard this on the radio the other day... I thought, god this song sounds so familiar from the mid 90's... I was ashamed I forgot who sang this and it has been ages since I heard it... great song, great alternative rock from Canada.
I also just randomly heard this song on the radio in the car a day ago. I memorized the words thinking it was a new song. When I googled the lyrics, I couldn't believe this song is from 1996/97. Canada sure does have talent.
Ya where's the video for this song? Totally awesome. Remember when MuchMusic actually played rock and roll and supported Canadian bands? Man the late 90s was the shiznit.
HOLY SHIT!!!! FIIIIIIINNAALLY I FIND SOME FRIKKIN RUSTY ON THIS SITE! I was looking for SO long..this band was AWESOME dude..wish they were still around
the problem with them was that they kept changing their sound/styles for each album they put out and people were introduced to Rusty thru 'fluke' and thats pretty much what expecting from them and it made it hard for them to get a good reaction from an audience sometimes especially after the 3rd one came out cause it was hard to mix all the styles together for a live set...whats odd and scary is that no ones heard anything from Ken Macneil since they broke up, i just hope hes not dead :(
Oh yeah, and I just discovered that this song is apparently about the Pamela Smart case, the woman who had her 15-yr-old lover murder her husband. Check wikipedia for info. It makes sense now...
Hmm, what's with people named Smart getting involved in crime one way or another? I'm just thinking of that little girl that was abducted a while back named Smart. Not very smart of her family to leave the house unlocked.
there were 2 videos for this song, one was the alanis car spoof, and the other one i barely remember, something to do with him (or some guy) handcuffed inside a hotel room? damn, i cant remember, anyways, great song, hope someone posts the video of it
I remember it as both of those videos as one. It would cut from the car shots to the Danko Jones handcuffed in the hotel room...but that was a long time ago and I could be wrong..
i remember a scene in the 2nd video where the dude is cuffed and the woman looks down his boxers and then looks at the camera and lips "crabs", i think the word crabs was even captioned at the bottom of the screen. then she starts washing him with crab shampoo lol
What's with the dude on the top right corner? Did he forget his hat that day?

the problem with them was that they kept changing their sound/styles for each album they put out and people were introduced to Rusty thru 'fluke' and thats pretty much what expecting from them and it made it hard for them to get a good reaction from an audience sometimes especially after the 3rd one came out cause it was hard to mix all the styles together for a live set...whats odd and scary is that no ones heard anything from Ken Macneil since they broke up, i just hope hes not dead :(
