  • it would help if she could sing

  • Awesome! The early 80's transition haircuts from the 70's shag to pre-80's big hair was the best! Feathering and down the middle parts were the height of fashion back then.

  • i was born in the wrong era altoghter!!! youtube is my only escape :)

  • very nice song. thanks very much for uploading this one. ***** and I made it a favorite too.

  • OK song.

    George Vreeland Hill

  • I know what guys like and it ain't you

  • this entire song is just the hook over and over

  • Patty Donahue is the holy grail of sarcasm.

  • hey get your own account please do not used my account i,m a bad bitch 

  • my new favourite song... nyah nyah nyah nyah!

  • The lead vocalist here, Patty Donahue died on December 9, 1996 due to lung cancer at the age of 40 after battling it for almost a year. A native of Cleveland, Donahue was interred in the Holy Cross Cemetery, in nearby Brook Park.

  • 1:26

    the keyboard player slides his hand down the piano going left but the notes in the song go from low to high! the more you know

  • Boys like boys like boys like me ;p

  • The sexaphone the lost art form

  • lisa- the simpsons

  • Great Album !!!

  • I have that bass guitar.

  • pin heads 

  • Boys like Blowjobs....

  • Same today, nothing has changed.......... :D

  • Nothing beats the 80's. You could have no actual singing talent whatsoever and still be popular. :D

  • @Michaelsmylovelyone And that's different to now because...? ;o)

  • @pfalconer Because at least the music was effing good, not shittastic singing AND crappy music like it is today. :P

  • that girl has got chicken legs...

  • This song is talking about how this girl i know and she found found the man of her dreams but couldnt ever make physical love to him and enjoy it because she was sexually abused and has adhd

  • Son is rockin the 80's unibrow with confidence.

  • mickeyteaser

  • OMG, this is a forgotten classic, at least forgotten by me. This is cleaver.

  • RIP Patty.

  • Not a bad song. Bit repetitive though.

  • @tracelight24 Actually, like this song or not, this song is better than the crap you mentioned.

  • @LedWilde let's call it equal

  • @tracelight24 Fine but I will add this band could play instruments and weren't controlled with an iron fist by producers like the other people you mentioned. The vocals weren't pitched in the studio either like both the tweens you mentioned. So, this band should get more credit.

  • @tracelight24 I think you missed the whole point of this style. It is like garage rock but garage new wave but then again you are most likely too young to know about garage rock like Vanilla Fudge or even the early garage sounding Rap artist from the late 70's from the Boogie Down Bronx, the point was not to be polished and corporate sounding like today's music, it was meant to raw and the inflection of tone was more important to convey that who gives a fuck attitude, it was art above money

  • @kimrabb. Well said. Nice one!

  • @kimrabb Beautifully put.

  • Cool song.

  • 21 people dont know what boys like :)

  • great tune and super 80's classic!

  • So this is what Liz Lemon was doing before joining that phone sex line...

  • The 80s were such a time of musical transition. There were so many awesome tunes, but also there were pieces of unmusical shit like this. What complete garbage.

  • @tyme4mike you have shit in your ears.

  • @wildswan66 It got there from your toilet mouth trying to tell people that this "feces" can pass as music. Where the fuck do quiffs like you come from? If you like this puke for music that's your right. And it's my right to dislike it so go back to wanking over pictures of your pet monkey and leave the critique to those who aren't inbred. In case you don't understand what I've written, it's from a language for rednecks like yourself who lick Uncle Grampaw's nuts. It means "go fuck yourself".

  • @tyme4mike yeah it's your right , but now I think you also have shit in your mouth.

  • @tyme4mike So you don't dig this song here, .. fine and dandy. But it's certainly more like music than that rap shit of today, .. do give it THAT at least. I'm curious to know, what are some examples of 80's music that you do consider to be good ?

  • they also have that awesome christmas song

  • i know what boys like... for her to stop singing this song

  • @1Princessannie As a guy I'd like you to STFU about what you THINK boys like.

  • At least she's being honest.

  • I love this song and this vid soooo much!!!! And i loooooooover her little oufit!!! Great job uploading this video on here!!

  • i know it pure 80's but i think the drummer is hot

  • This video is uncomfortable.........

  • is that opera winfrey on bass

  • I thought Ashley Fink sung this awful...but then I heard this original version and realised the song is just awful...(to my opinion!)

  • Glee sucks..

  • @bunnyhead71 O: you suck they do not you suck

  • how about this song from the 80's tv show square pegs with sarah jessica parker

  • Like this if the reason you are listining 2 this song is because of:

    In a Simpsons episode lisa wanted 2 b a boy 2 learn maths,

    Quagmire in family guy was singing this in church,

    You saw lauren in Glee do a version x

    XD

  • 18 girls don't know what boys like

  • The chick at 0:50 is creepy O.o

    Definately prefer the Glee version. The original sounds so seedy D:

  • what's a glee

  • Glee is wayy better!! its got sam in it

  • Apparently boys back in the 80's were blind...

  • Love It!!!

    

  • I like this 1 better than the katherine mcphee 1

  • She is creeepu

  • Glee is officially better with this song *A*

  • @Simlife3 WHAT!!?

  • @Simlife3 Too bad glee is shit..

  • @HanonGuurl527

    Then learn to be cool.

  • @Simlife3 ......So listening to shitty versions of songs will make me cool?

  • @HanonGuurl527 for u it will.

  • @Simlife3 from me that won't. There are so many things wrong with this generation... which is why I wish I was growing up in the 80s instead. I can tell they brainwashed poor you.

  • @HanonGuurl527 Well, I want to live in his time, i dont live in the past.

    i live in this times.

    and i'm glad to live in this time.

  • @Simlife3 LMAO!!!

  • this reminds me of an episode of Jackass. lol.

  • this clip is awful like shit.

  • @himself801 We'll just wait and see how the fads and music of TODAY look in another thirty or so years in the future, wont we ?

  • Amazing audio

  • omg ugly bitchhhhhhhhhhhh

  • Didn't she die of cancer in 1994?

  • lol..Bravo !

  • Amazing, after seeing all of the meth head bitches dancing to this song, I never knew that it was sung by one too.

  • Ironic that the ciggy she is smoking at the start was killing her to her early death, poor chick

  • Man this is so much better than Katherine McPhee's soulless butcher job. Loving Tracy Wormworth on the p-bass, it's the contrast between her upbeat funky energy and Patty Donahue's slouchy don't-give-a-*** vocal that make it happen. The dudes are just filler.

  • this song is okay is does not suck

  • lol Herbert the pervert

  • perfect for gay men

  • How in the fuck did we live through that?!! - Just kidding - Great times back in the day!!!

  • I like this song and the way the lead singer is deliberatelhy flat in the chorus. It accentuates the point.

  • VH1 when they used to have Pop Up Video said that this lead singer died of cancer, years ago now she's been dead at this rate.

  • This song sucks ass + That Black chick shouldnt be portrayed as hot cuz she ugly i aint racist cuz lots of black chicks are fine! just not her. Did i mention this song sucks!

  • hmmmmmmmmmm ..suckerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrr

  • man. i freaking love this song!!!

  • Thats a boomin bassline thanks to Tracy Wormworth!!! And she still does that "HIP" thing!! I remember her on SNL with Sting......She's still got it!!

  • I know what boys like sang by Katharine McPHee is a sample from this song? or is it the same?

  • LMAO @ Oprah & Bill Gates in the back...

  • that girl is ugly at 0:53

  • na na na nyaaaa-.."TIGER UPPERCUT"

  • I have to agree with whoever the hell said it...the bass player is hotter than the lead singer...and she plays guitar....color me smitten

  • lol this song is funny

  • jay-z sampled this for i know what girls like on in my lifetime vol. 1 sophmore lp first was reasonable doubt and before that original flava ............. GET NOTICED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I think the black girl (bass player) is pretty cute when they do close-ups of her face when she's "singing".

  • What's funny is that the saxophone player (a guy) actually wrote this song and had her sing it.

    Patti Donahue, the lead singer, died in 1996 from cancer (lung cancer?). RIP

    The Waitresses also had one other famous song, the Christmas song "Christmas Wrapping" in 1983.

  • My mistake, it's actually the guitarist (Chris Butler) who wrote this and all of the Waitresses' songs.

  • i love this awesome song!

  • i heard this at teh end of a jennifers body traielr it looks awesome and this song is kickass!

  • Classic.  I loved it then and still do. I remember this song in The Last American Virgin. Someone said that she died in real life. Did she really?

  • What can I say... Some boys are easy to tease.. I hope she gave it to em good....

  • She comes off as a bimbo in this video. lol

    The way she moves her body, and her skinniness. Chick is like 100lbs.

    She's dead though. from lung cancer back in 1996. RIP Patty Donahue

  • Another victim of smoking. WHen will people learn.

  • i love her bored tone!!!!

  • STICKY TUNE

  • cool stuff...kinda sad she's dead

  • this is in jackass...i think

  • I <3 Irony

  • Although she spent every bit of 5 minutes writing this song, It could totally suck and you'd still sing the hook! lol Catchy tune!

  • funny

  • If she (Patty) had put down the freaking cigarettes she would still be alive.

  • She died of lung cancer did she?

  • Are you serious? She died? When? Where did you hear that she died? Were you a fan of hers? People don't realize the damage that cigarettes do until it's too late. People claim that they can't stop. I was on Xanax and felt that I was becoming addicted to the stuff so I stopped taking it. That's a narcotic. So if I could stop a narcotic after my body started being dependent on it a smoker could stop if they really wanted to.

  • i know u posted ur comment 11months ago.... i smoked for 8 yrs then one day i quit , just like that . i agree its up to the person

  • @HippieNiecey yea she died of lung cancer ,

  • @samatha183 thought she died a druggie, freebasing? 

  • @sylicone221 No, she died of lung cancer.

  • @screaminalleycat lung cancer as a result of crack/freebase? 

  • @samatha183 WASNT SHE A CRACKHEAD......you get lung cancer from smoking crack not just cigarretes heheheee

  • One of the finest songs of the 80s.

    Despite being as skinny as a rail, Patty was pretty. Man, can never get enough of those Aries fems.
