Listening to this is really weird. For the better part of a year I've been listening to the 1995 farewell performance. Gotta love Danny, and superb vid.
2:19 they cut part of the lyrics that i like. "Let's talk of family values while we sit and watch the slaughter. hypothetical abortions on imaginary daughters."
this song is epic. first time i heard this, i fell in love with Oingo Boingo.
dead truth: don't even listen to the songs first, go find the album Boingo somewhere. personal opinion, best mix ever, i always want to start it over again when it finishes. and again. and again...
I am a cery christian person, but I still like this song a LOT! I always think of Westboro Baptist Church and tv-evangelists as I listen to this song, the most rotten christians that exist. D:<
the origional is on the farewell video i believe if memory serves me along w another video thats where i first saw this :) TOTALLY disturbing and wicked <3 but thats why we love the elfman ;)
@doggzma yea...them gingers have no soul LOL....I think "Only a Lad" was their first song ....that's rather telling ;)....frickin love these guys...oops now I gotta hear "Good For Your Soul " & "Only a Lad"
@Okpolosi Their first recording was "Demo EP" recorded in June 1979, released in October 1979. Limited to 130 copies. Would dearly love to have one. enDOTwikipediaDOTorg/wiki/Demo_EP_(Oingo_Boingo)
I always thought the weirdest and most insane clip would belong to any metal band... But no, ladies and gents, it belongs to Elfman; Danny is his name... friend of Burton's. He made Beetlejuice dance, Batman go fast at nights, we entered the cryptkeeper's mansion to his tunes... This is the best musician of all times. PERIOD
So glad you uploaded this video! But, "it was the creepiest thing I ever saw besides the Avenged Sevenfold - A little piece of heaven music video".... Really? I just watched that video. It's a cool video. Not creepy. There are Tool videos MUCH creepier than the A7X video.
At any rate, thank you for this video! I've been dying to see it and share it for years. ^_^
If anyone ever asks me why Tim Burton has Danny Elfman score the music to his movies, I can just sit them down in front of this video and, with a wry grin, say, "Just watch, dear."
THANK YOUUUUUUUUU!!! I love Oingo Boingo!! especially this song, saw them live every time they were down in San Diego which was often, the best live band ever, their energy was insane.....Miss you Danny!!!
Love this song, just wish the video was the full version instead of this shorter one. This is just as good though, especially since every other video with the full version gets removed due to copyright.
@sturmwalzer This is the only video version.. Yes it's much shorter then the album version but they were never going to make a 7 minute video.. plus this version was recorded for the video and sound very different to what appeared on thee album (this version has guitars the album version of the song didn't)
@Silverfang797 You're welcome. :) Anyway, Same here at first. It was blocked and then I went through the Dispute process and I said that the video would help the artist gain views and money. And now it has 3,490 views. So, I'm betting that's helping the artist gain views, making people want to buy their music, therefore helping the band gain more money.
@zdaniels10 To do my part I shared it to my Facebook wall which is often visited by my 40something year old friends from the Burbank / Hollywood area that grew up listening to Boingo. We would see all the shows back then at 4th of July and Halloween. Good times. :) Thanks for sharing this. I did not know it existed.
@zdaniels10 Totally agree, you are promoting them.I just posted a vid,kinda a tribute to the 3 Fire Dept.s that saved my place from a wildfire w/"I Smell Smoke" by J. Winter & give him credit,song title & album with a BUY IT ! in the vid in hopes of avoiding it being flagged.This is pure Boingo though & there should be no reason to pull it.Looks to be done by the guy that did vids for TOOL.TY for posting it...put on the live CD & decided to look 4 it - a pleasant surprise ;)
@zdaniels10 It works, and if I had the money, I know what I'd be buying with it. Thank you for uploading this. One of my favorite Oingo Boingo songs. Perfect for Halloween as well.
My two fave bands are/were REALLY hard to find on you tube for years. I think they have scouts who seek out uploaded stuff and have it removed. I expect this to be gone soon. Depeche Mode and Boingo... Depeche Mode is a bit easier now that they have an official channel.. Boingo.. I still cannot find Hey or tender lumplings. :(
@MoonlitReigns I definitely hope not. I mean, I uploaded this because of the fact that I couldn't find it on youtube. And I'm finding that people are definitely loving this video. It would be sad to see it taken down. :(
A lot of the live stuff's been up for years, as have a few others (Stay, Dead Man's Party, Weird Science), but It's fairly difficult to find some of the other songs.
It's most likely due to Boingo not gaining much fame outside the US; I'm in England and I had never heard of them before coming across a link in a forum post. None of my friends have any idea that Danny Elfman even had a band before he did film scores. Kind of a shame, I love this music.
@MephProduction Really? I swear I saw it. But alas this was back in 1994. I would like even for someone to put Hey in a fanmade. :( But thanks for the info.
@MoonlitReigns I've never heard of a video for Hey, i know there are a few live versions around.Perhapss there is but i was under the impression there never was one,
awesome!! after a coupla years i have only managed to find a long remixed version of this on cd or in ISOs, so have been stuck watching the DailyMotion video (which is flooded with ads) thankyou for this!! also, if you got tips on where i can get this version as mp3, thatd be fab xx
@accidentaldisaster I think that this is actually a radio mix set to video or something else. I think that the version on CD is the song's actual length. The Oingo Boingo Farewell video seems to confirm this, at least for me. PLEASE let me know if I'm wrong.
