  • JIMI HENDRIX SAID HIS FAVORITE GUITAR PLAYER SOUND WAS ZZ TOP , CANT ARGUE WITH HENDRIX

  • Zig zag top ...TEXAS at its best......

  • Only ZZ Top could do a song about TV dinners and pull it off. Good stuff! ;)

  • Bring back claymation!!!!

    I wish I had a little green friend to share my potato chips with.

  • hank hill is dustys cousin.

  • hard driving texas blues

  • This one's kind of tough...☺

  • Great video, love the alien TV Dinner dude!

  • Saw these guys twice in the 80's WOW!

  • favorite Top song!! fun!!

    From Oregon God bless.......

  • That same guy is in just about every music video they had.

  • Dusty on synths! It musta been 1983!

    And they sure are fine! Hoo!  Gotta have it ... 3:09

  • Best music video ever made!!!

  • Sorry but what kinda of fuck head are you if you eat TV dinners?

  • i love all this older music with all my heart.

  • I watched this while eating a TV Dinner.

  • ZZ Top's best song!!

  • One of Jimi Hendrix' biggest influences = Billy Gibbons

  • Comment removed

  • This is definetly my favorite song and video from this record.Awesome!

  • Holy bass this song is badass!

  • I bet when they came up with this song it was a guitar instrumental. And then they started ad-libing whatever lyrics they could think of. Kinda like Susie Q.

  • if the sauce isnt too blue , lol lol ,

  • The best video ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @wilddhaemers That is a great video and song as well, Nothing like ZZ!!

  • Great song great video!

  • THIS IS HILARIOUS!!!

  • no way!!!! i never knew there was a video for this song. one of my favorite songs from zz top.

  • Thumbs up if you just like this fuckin bad ass ZZ Top song!!!

  • @sepulthrax Yeah I like the song and vid here, .. . doesn't mean I'm going to help elevate your cheap, stupid and unoriginal comment to the Top however ( not falling for THAT idiot, .. . don't know about anyone els ) !

  • @Skulldini haha I didn't even remember typing that

  • @Skulldini and who gives a fuck about being original? Hasn't ZZ recorded a few covers in their career (Viva Las Vegas)??

  • @sepulthrax What I meant is that there are about a godzillion other of these "Thumbs up if ... . " postes all over this thing called You Tube, .. . it's practicaly an epidemic here. I think it's a cheap and conspicuous effort to get oneself votes from others and it wont get any from me. But it looks like 17 other people here thus far have given you theirs, so I guess it doesn't make much difference .

  • 1:30 QUIJI BOARD MOMENT!

  • Billy Gibbons kills me. What is he? A human? Love him.

  • brought to you by swanson hungryman

  • TV dinners are especially useful when you're drunk and can't find the stove. I love ZZ Top - one of my favorite bands, but even they can fuck up, as this song is proof, lol.

  • One thing I have learned from 80's videos: Cocaine IS a helluva drug!

  • The Alien knows what he want Chips and ZZ-Top

  • that lil guy sure has some good taste in music...

  • This video was produced and filmed in Memphis.Riverside Drive sure doesn't look like it did back in 82.

  • @doughesson epic X3

  • @cgord37 Amen.

  • 5 people forgot to heat up their TV dinners.

  • @javajen19 Hahahahah...that cracked me up.

  • this video creeped me out when i was a kid...

  • rocks

  • this is my anthem and my roll model is al bundy.

  • good beat but stupid name and words for a song..hence thats why it bombed (bombed i mean 30 years ago term not todays definition)

  • @MrKolt2112 a song this good cant bomb cause of a stupid name!!!!!! thats retarded

  • @90zzz09 it peaked at 38 that year.....a far cry from previous tunes by ZZ from that album...if it was released as a single not from the greatness of that album it wouldnt even have made it anywhere let alone the radio or mtv ...and yes i am retarded

  • @MrKolt2112 radio? i have never once heard this song on any radio station. and you're considering it a bomb cuz it wasn't a top 10 hit? that's your opinion, but most people who listen to classic rock love what a bunch of us call a song like this a lost classic. you'll instantly recognize it when someone plays this album but never hear it on radio.

  • @stets5150 what the hell you talkin about ?..you mean this post i made over 3 months ago ?..old news..next

  • @MrKolt2112 ah wrong

    

  • @69KILLGORE ??

  • @MrKolt2112 it was damn popular when it came out but me and my mates r HUGE fans my first concert was ZZ Top Eliminator it was AWSOME

  • what is a Quija board doing in the kitchen?

  • I have seen ZZ top at least 4 times in concert and they are one of my favorite bands of all time.

  • 4 people dont like tv dinners.

  • hahaha at the end the guy runs away and the monster is just chillin'

  • I saw this video back in the 80's.

    But the sad thing is what happen to zz top :-(

  • American Guitar.....synth or no, Billy KILLS it on this one ..."got a habit!" 

  • Someone mentioned tv dinners(the actual meal) in a show tonight and this been stuck in me head ever since

  • Guess that's what really happened back in the 80's when you nuked a TV dinner w/the foil left on it.

  • LOL, Oh man I remember those days-back when microwaves were as big as TV monitors.

  • GAGA paid to advertise . You pay, you play.  i guess.

  • How lady gaga related to this?

  • 4 ppl need a tv dinner.

  • I always liked this track on this record when I was a kid-and now as an adult I LIVE THIS TRACK!

  • 4 people have never had to eat a TV dinner and have eaten fancy cuisine all their life. Either that or they have no sense of humor.

  • Four people who watched this video don't qualify for "Eliminator."

  • Classic MTV days!!! GImmie all your Loving, Legs, Sharp Dressed Man and the CLASSIC TV DINNERS...LOL!!! FUNKY!!!

  • I love that phat bass line.

  • @twallace71a lol - it's a synth
