Peter Gabriel, The mad genius! He is right up there with the greats, Lennon, McCartney, Harry Chapin, Bob Dylan, Harry Nilsson To mention a few.

[Kadaver6]

This takes me back to my childhood, AND I'M A 90'S KID!!!!!!!

[TheeArtfulLodger]

[Guitarist500]

Was like addicted to this song again as soon as I head this song on South Park

[puacino2]

[Jofes1214]

I often listen to that song when i do long car travels.

[heylilly1]

I heard this on south park and I forgot how the song went so I typed in "shake that monkey" I WAS HORRIBLY WRONG!

[BEP2009JET]

@heylilly1 that's all right when i first heard it i thought it was shoot the monkey

[bashinmybishop]

How can anyone not like track?

[7466309change]

[TRONman531]

[manson61190]

Coal Chamber covered this with Ozzy, so i had to hear the original to compare.

Now I am on a hunt for a South Park episode.

Curse you, Youtube.

[DelaneyNdAmandaShOw1]

Theres something rong with this guy. Who wants to shock a monkey cuz like really thts just rude to the monkey. They have feelings too,

[TacoOnABoat]

@DelaneyNdAmandaShOw1 You act like he doesn't care about them. He says in the "Don't you know, you're gonna shock the monkey?" and "Does the monkey get hurt?' this was actually in a movie, which was, coincidentally enough , about testing on monkeys. Also, he says "I don't like it, but I guess I'm learning" so it's not really rude. He obviously cares about these monkeys.

[Videocreatorgod]

South Park episode Raisins brought me here.

[7466309change]

Man oh man... Gotta love the 80's!! The music, tv, movies, clothing alone makes me wish i had been born earlier instead of in '88

[UnrealVirusInfection]

Poor stan

[TheAltair4]

Brilliant song!

[Johnlindsey289]

@TheAltair4

PG is one of my favorite musicians.

[TheAltair4]

@Johnlindsey289 Mine too.

[TheMuffinMan4real]

Token in the window... lol

[riff5fki]

He has an epic voice, just saying. And since he was Genesis' lead singer before, songs like this make sense to me, it's similar to quite a few prog rock songs.

[90FirstGenPGT]

did he just say cock?

[90FirstGenPGT]

@90FirstGenPGT 1:59 Mark

[forrestfire1012]

When I heard on south park, I thought the gu ywas saying SHUT THE FUCK UP!

[bolmsp]

awesome o !!!!!!

[Bobablazer]

weirdest fucking song ever...what the fuck is with the midgets??

[Bobablazer]

weirdest fucking song ever

[GoHurricaneDean]

The Anunnaki needed slaves to dig for gold. They mixed their DNA with animals of earth. They shocked the monkey's DNA with their own, to create man. "Something knocked me out the trees, now I'm on my knees." They influenced man to believe in Religion, Law and Money. Man are slaves to these useless concepts. With these in our mind, it separated us as one race. We All now practice prejudice, ignorance, superiority, war...So now, we are all doomed. Never to find true freedom, like the monkey.

[jabberwolf]

Dwarves = better video... always !!

[Themadfarter1976]

What does it even mean.....shock the monkey?

[TheSkuLLcomedyShow]

Don't cha know you gotta Spank the Monkey.

[roblr2006]

thumbs up if u like to shock the monkey.

[WRI2012]

@ rekaepa... lol that monkey is the human race... and the way its going we may all be extinct before long.

[rekaepa]

That monkey's probably dead by now.

[OleVanDole]

This video was fantastic for its time, still is.

[davandk]

One person needs shock therapy.

[105Mittens]

@davandk Only one?

[GoHurricaneDean]

"Something knocked me out the trees, now I'm on my knees."

Mixing Anunnaki DNA and monkey DNA you get man. Man is on his knees as slaves to Religon (God), Politics (War) and Money (Control). Man can not achieve freedom as a monkey, unless those things are Abolished from man's Mind.

"Don't like it but I guess I'm Learning."

[WRI2012]

@GoHurricaneDean Well said ! A complete summation of this songs message in less than a paragraph.

[RunningManOnMars]
