@DangerousNigger

I don't like this song either, but it's better than half the shit that's out there today. As for calling me an "asshole" and a "hoe", that speaks volumes of your intellect. Who did you steal that computer from anyway? Maybe you just use the computer at the government office when you pick up your welfare cheque. Stupid bastard.

[Stewart003]

@Playstation3Gamer10 I agree but not surprised. Bill Haley wasn't inducted to The Rock n' Roll hall of fame until The 80's. Bill Haley and his Comets Were the guy's that started the Rock n' Roll revolution in the UK. We teenagers called him the KING, but because Elvis rocked the air waves soon after Bill Haley,the new radio DJ's decided we the teenagers of the time were wrong, and announced Elvis was the king.

Ask any one in your family over 70 who the real king was? I'm 70+ & B/H was the King.

[TheSomethingIsh]

This song is funny especially the pic you put in the video :D

[facepaint87]

Big bopper was on some heavy psychedelic drugs

[lilgiggler35]

cracks me up on youtube is how people wil watch a video and dislike it and then get into arguements about it. If you start to watch something and dislike it that much, you have a very simple solution:::: hit the dislike button and then go watch another video of the type you do like. that's the beauty of this site. every one of us on here has freedom of choice. (climbs down off her soap box) :o)

@DangerousNigger

So if you don't like it, why don't you just go back to your bullshit 86 caprice with three $7000 rims that you bought on layaway, bump your soulja boy or whatever you fucks listen to, and sling your crack somewhere else...the moral of my little story is...FUCK YOU.

[DangerousNigger]

@bigbad409

not my fault this song sucks! Fuck you asshole!

[bigbad409]

@ DangerousNigger

Once upon a time people who wrote music actually had talent, people who sang it actually had talent, and people who played the instruments actually had talent...did you know that that isn't a drum machine but real people making it? I bet you didn't because you sound like an uneducated, ignorant, fucking idiot....

[DangerousNigger]

@bigbad409

you call this garbage talent? lmao. Fuck you hoe.

[SpiritWolf1021]

"man..youre ugly!" XD

[spencermax]

@SpiritWolf1021 you say that because you're a cunt. yes, I'm absolutely right too

[SpiritWolf1021]

@spencermax i was laughing because what he said in the song. i thought it was funny i dont know what the fuck youre problem is.

[odiumimbues]

i could see some sort of 50s version of wigglys being on tv and ran by this guy. good composer, but music was pretty much debunked after beatles gave us chord progressions that changed tempo and re-invented every guitar.

Wonder when music will take a nice turn again... last good turn was nirvana.

[jackelprince1988]

What I AM wondering...is what obama, soros, blair, rothschild and that feller with rocks in his HEAD...are thinkin' bout RIGHT now?

[DangerousNigger]

god damn this fat ass sucked.

[LAA1979]

@DangerousNigger Then why are you listening to it?? Go somewhere else..wow you're quite the moron. Sad really I feel bad for you.

[DangerousNigger]

@LAA1979

i came here to dislike it. fuck you and this fatass hack.

[LAA1979]

@DangerousNigger Oh ok then, are you ok you sound so upset, I've been told I am quite a good listener. My your aggression can not be good for your health I hope the rest of your day is quite pleasent my dear Mr. Dangerous Nigger, oh what dangerous who? Ohhhhh that explains so much now your a ....got it nothing more needs to be said. Aftrer all I wouldnt want to anger a "Dangerous" man...ha ha ha.

[Monkeyspankerelite]

[nukester]

[027220]

Alvin & the Chipmuncks included.

[Mechanic1307]

My first record when i was 4 or 5 years old. B side of Chantilly Lace! Awesome

[Monkeyspankerelite]

This is REAL rock´n roll!

Go to bed blackhaired kiddies :)

[zepplinnkomand0]

@Monkeyspankerelite

these are the foundations rock was founded upon without it there would be no police or pink floyd

[Hyemoonie]

we must be related, my uncle was the voice of the witch doctor too! David Seville aka Ross Bagdasarian....

[richxl7]

Thanks Pal !

[royraaijmakers]

hahahahaha!!  just brilliant!!

[MusiconYooTube]

I go to summer school in katy texas with big boppers grandson

[sparwood8]

I don't remember this one. Awesome silly song, though

[teendude16]

What talent "THE BOPPPER HAD, how come he is not in THE ROCK N' ROLL OF FAME??????????????????. He should be for sure. Thx for Great tune, it was funny too.

[39tommyboy]

one time on wheel of fortune they had the name of this song on the board and this woman went to solve it and screemed out purple peter eater instead. pat sajack cracked up laughing and they had to go to a commercial. lol godbless.

[ginger1959able]

Hopefully ross would have been flattened sheb cut some good wax

[Outlaw1257]

My uncle was the voice of the witch doctor. he was a close friend of Jape Richardson.

[PAULLONDEN]

First I didn't believe you,-outlaw- always thought it was Bopper's voice speeded up,your comment made me load it into music editing software and slowed these bits down,and it's indeed not the Bopper's voice.Interesting uncle you've got,is the witch doctor still under the living ?

[ClassicSSFan80]

@Outlaw1257 Sure he was. Uh huh. And I'm related to Buddy Holly.

[60DF47H32]

@ClassicSSFan80 thats crazy! what was your relation to Buddy Holly??

[TheDJGrandPa]

@Outlaw1257 Oh, that's really cool!

[Carycomic]

Ross Bagdasarian and Sheb Woolley must have been flattered.

[kackadoodlbb]

just outta-site!!!! (great!!)

[boxerbitch]

it was the flip side of the 45 Chantilly Lace. Such a cute song

[rainydaywoman1957]

this was one of my first records as a little kid.

[zbestwun2001]

/daniellunamusic

[Erkele]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNN­NNNNNNNNNNE !

Allways like this one !

- Thanks - E

[rainydaywoman1957]

wow, how much does he look like jethro bodine married curley from the 3 stooges and had a kid.

[flinkertrageser]

That's a good one!

[NeilThompson30]

We had the 78 when we were kids - this was our favourite side - we hardly played Chantilly lace!

[Bopalena]

For a guy who was around as a singer for such a short time he sure made a lot of records! Johnny Winter told me that he used to listen to the Big Bopper's radio show when he was growing up in Beaumont. Waaaay cool!

[wilmaohman]

i had forgotten this one.

[1BarefootCowboy]

I believe this was originally by Joe South. It was his first single and hit. I've never heard The Big Bopper version. This is a treat.

[Vhazhiphor]

From what I read in Wikipedia, it was originally by Sheb Wooley.

[1BarefootCowboy]

The Witch Doctor was David Seville. The Purple People Eater was Sheb Wooley. This song was written and originally performed by Joe South. All three singles were 1958. This was Joe South's first hit, 11 years before Games People Play which would be his second success.

[wilmaohman]

sheb wooley also used the name ben colder

[guitarista12]

Funny. Thanks for posting.

[nutballgazette]

This was supposed to be the A Side when released. As a little one Yhis was my favorite song.

[gangerollo]

This is a SICK one. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

[emoTeam95]

XDDD HI-LAR-E-US!!!! (yes i know spelled wrong)

[surferjay1]

[ultimiti]
