The B-52's Song For a Future Generation

[stopmakingthatnoise]

I always come back to this vid. Love Kate in it. Actially love them all.

[timphx623]

Keith looks like Tom Brady from the New England Patriots.

[dvdprkr]

hi! i'm david, i'm an aries, and i like ants and mexican soda!

[L0vezPeppah85]

Hi, I'm Citwus the Sagittarius from Southern C-A, and I put pepper on almost everything I eat!!! B52's 4-EVER and ever and ever and ever for ever and peace for generations of B52s!

[madsketcher]

So much fun... but why is the song slowed down?

[SeranAki]

Yo quiero una vida normal... buenos amigos, una nave espacial, llevar serenata con mi guitarra, respetado pensador, una gran esposa a quien cuidar y que me cuide, una hermosa novia con quien platicar y a quien admirar (que despues sea mi esposa), salir a pasear con mis papas, exponer mis pinturas en un museo, ser mas fuerte que los demas, saltar banquetas en patineta,

[gbthecoach]

This band is just amazing. Thank all of you in it for the years of enjoyment. Great new album as well.

[CandyFishCowbell]

When Ricky says he, 'Loves computers', what is he referring to? In '85 'puters were in their infancy.

So I am wondering what he was talking about. Anyone know? 2ndthing is, just after he says he loves computers, he also says that he like or loves ...what I cannot make out?

Anyone know?

(ps, Ricky, and the band, I just bought the back catalogue to get a better grip on who you were then and are now. I don't think of Ricky being dead, he's a part of the band now and always, IMO).

[noJungleKiss]

Hi, I'm David, and I'm a pisces. I like beer and Sun Chips.

[SachaNoamBaronCohen]

It's so nice the B-52's hope to see 'em at California!.

[wemustrepent]

For over three decades,the Soviet Union was developing electrocuteness and applying it to develop strange new secret cute and fun weapons of incredible power and capability. They sustained the largest fun development program ever launched by any nation,and they still kept it effectively hidden from prying western eyes.Stare at the american with yellow hair. Is there anything cuter than that?

[retro80s70s]

Kate Pierson looks a lot like my substitute teacher Mrs. Knapp.....

[toddgenz]

LUCKY you! Seriously.

[slayerproductions038]

Classic B's

Keith looks adoreable.

[rickenba]

R.I.P. Ricky, You will never be forgotten!,.

[kezakodonc]

Warner, tu me vire le Fun de YouTube, je t'achette plus! C'est clair non?

[therealsoulproduct]

Hi, I'm SoulProduct from NYC, and I like apple pie a la mode and 80's music.

Seriously though, this video version of the song is my favorite. I saw the video first with the notion that the actual song was in the key of C#, like what you hear in the clip. But then I bought the album and came to find that the pitch on SFAFG was slightly faster. So I'm gonna stick with this version, not the "WHAMMY!" one.

[CandyFishCowbell]

Agree with you there, man. Bit too fast on the album.

[heavenlyworlds]

The B-52's will never die down....not in my world!

[L0vezPeppah85]

heck yes!

[KimIsMissing]

Hi, I'm Kim, I'm a scorpio and I love drawing and berries!

[stretchmonster2]

Having babies with Kate = healthy offspring

[monkeypox37]

This is just amazing!

[thgil567]

Hey! I'm SM and I'm an Aquarius! I like fashion and fried green tomatoes!

[stretchmonster2]

Great song!! Is it just me??.. or is Kate really cute??

[raraelzinho]

New Wave forever ^^

[KimIsMissing]

They're not WEIRD, they're very UNIQUE, and I LOVE THEM!!!

[Imyoursuperior]

remember when people actually wanted babies and didn't consider them "punishments" like our president elect?

[EmperorofMu99]

no, this song is for a future generation stupid.

[PurplePushPin]

Hi I'm Matt, I'm a Cancer, I'm 16, and I love the B52's

[lacucas]

Hi, I'm Fiola,I'm capricorn I love to watch 80's vids and travel all over the world!

[Ctmagnus]

I adore these guys and I MUST say if Ricky wore that little outfit he wears on the swing when he went to bar he probably got talked to ALOT. Adorable.

[monkeyman1140]

I nominate this as the wierdest B52 video of all, and considering how wierd they all are...

[aimylou92]

Hmm what about Girl from ipanema? XD thats a pretty weird video xD

[brij2far25346]

does moscow really have a president?

[ladypodtron]

Charming video by one of my all time faves!

[booboobay1]

Hi, I;m Chris! Im a tarus! I LOOOVE the B-52's and their music!

[velvetcaress]

The B's have been in my heart since the 80's, Love 'em. Ricky's such a handsome fella....so sad. It's beautiful how Cindy & Ricky both have that shy,dreamy Pisces quality.

[whirlaway05]

Hi I'm Vince, i looooove dolphins, and britney spears, too!........ wanna be the king of the ocean, wannna be the ruler of the wilderness..... don't don't ever wanna baby.... EVER!! la la la-la la, la la la la la la la la.........

[Brett000005]

brilliant song

[raraelzinho]

Hi, i'm Rafa from Brasil, i'm aquarius, and I love watch tv and hear music of 80's.

[raraelzinho]

a musica e mo nada ver...mais e muito BOA...

[stretchmonster2]

What singer has sexier limbs than Kate?? I can't think of any.

[stretchmonster2]

Kate is just "too good" between 1:34 and 1:46.

[stretchmonster2]

How come my comments keep getting rejected whenever I comment on Kate's great legs??

[LRigs25B]

because the comments are moderated...to keep people from cross posting about Kate's legs on all the videos...

[SimpleJones]

Hi, I'm Connor from Nebraska and I like long eyelashes and people that stands out.

Wanna be the captain of the universe

Wanna be the richest man alive

Let's meet and have a baby now.

[Calistro]

Hi, I'm Michael from Ohio; I'm a Pisces, and I love my accordion.

[puppylover4ever]

hi, I'm Shikha from New York and I LOVE my music! :D

:P

RIP we miss u Ricky

[101Volts]

I wasn't even born for almost six years after he died. Ricky is my favorite guitarist too!

[101Volts]

Hi, I'm Austin from Pennsylvania. I'm deep into music and I am interested in Lucid Dreaming! :)

[babystrange]

All time favorite B-52's song and video.

[troides547376]

What a greaaaaaat song!!!..Nothing to do, the B-52s are in a league of their own...Long live the B-52s....

[allycat52s]

its funny how kate flings her shoes off

lol :)

[strechmonster]

"She should've said " Hi, I'm Kate and I'm a hell of a singer and the hottest woman alive..." hehe. I'd love to meet her and have a baby with her, that's for sure."

Hear Hear!!!!

[champagnevoluptuous]

I loooooove tomatoes and black-capped chickadees!

[sageofsuccess]

Ricky Wilson really could play the guitar. RIP-Ricky.

[tywill10]

There's something about 80's new wave that gives me an UNEXPLAINABLE sense of joy.

I don't like "Love Shack" but I do like this song. The B-52's kinda sound like Devo here.

[ILoveB52s]

How can you not like "Love Shack",a classic?

[101Volts]

I suppose some people don't like The B-52's music written after Ricky died. I prefer their old songs myself but also enjoy their new material.

[tigerlilylives123]

i know exactly what you mean

[garyfiguer]

un saludo desde argentina para todos los fans de esta espectacular banda , SIEMPRE ESTUVE ENAMORADO DE KATE Y CINDY JA JA , POR SIEMPRE B- 52'S !!

[woodenigloo8]

I loce cindy's style too!

[magstoriches]

I love cindy's styles in this video

[Karlitoriv]

She should've said " Hi, I'm Kate and I'm a hell of a singer and the hottest woman alive..." hehe. I'd love to meet her and have a baby with her, that's for sure.

[Chulva]

Hi, I'm Erick from St. Louis. I'm a Virgo, love sushi and my wonderful husband!

[fanfatack]

Yo soy una de esa futura generacion!

Gracias a los B52s! Sois perfectos!

[penguins4263]

[Babdinho]

Or... you play guitar like him.

[myfriendcaffeine]

i love this song! they are the best! ricky was such a cutie, and keith still is! this is one of their 10 best songs!

[Grygazol]

I love the B-52's! I'm so glad they released a new album (and that Cindy's back!).

Ricky was so gorgeous.

[arielstorm]

Who cares about the past, they are back!!!Enjoy the party!

[83survivor]

Ricky was the mastermind behind the B-52's, but sadly AIDs got him at age 32. Such a talented performer. So glad to see Cindy back.

[Tomkin01]

Yeah, heard bout B52's the first time in 1984, since then the im searching for videos here in germany. Thank you youtube and community !

[markmaille]

what do each of them say after they say hi and there name

[markmaille]

I MISS RICKY

[starchild34]

I'm Brady, I'm a Leo and I love men....and this song.

[MyFairyKing]

hi i'm jess, a leo from F-L-A, and i think we need a wig role call.

[J4J0KER]

J4Joker, Aquarius, and I think the B52's kick ass!

[mmmrenkas]

grreeeeeattt!!!!!

[ricardomark]

Hi Im ricardo and Iloved this clip-

[tattypatty]

Great song. Whammy! was just out at the wrong time....

[kingofthetoilets]

hi, i'm the birdman and i love to FART

[HILARYFAN06]

LOL

[bill2933]

I'm Bill, I'm a virgo and I love the B 52s

[ehrcali]

keith is still there, ricky cindys brother died of aids complications. to aussielmitator

[bill2933]

no he didn't

[mortypoo]

Yes he did.

[HOHNancy]

Ricky Wilson did die of AIDS in 1985...look it up in any site about the B-52's.

[yxb1353]

Ricky liked computers; it's a shame he didn't get to see the personal computing revolution as we know it now.

[johnneedslove]

hi, I'm John and I am a taurus, too!

[Kambo456]

Man, this song is so unusual and very cool, the verses being the brief "personal" intros, and the changing words of the chorus,

Dam that is creative, Kate (82) is a hell sweet babe!

peace, Kambo.

[MuscleJacker]

Kate will soon be 60. She is nowhere near 82!

[AussieImitator]

First time I heard this it felt weird cause I'm used to the B-52's only having 3 members.

What happened to the other 2 guys?

[HOHNancy]

Cindy is back with the B-52's now - back in 1990 she had to leave temporarily for her family, and at one point for maternity leave...but she's back with the group...which is great! :) Sadly....Ricky, Cindy's brother, died of AIDS back in 1985 at age 32. Keith, Fred and Kate are still in the B-52's and as I said before, Cindy's back. :)

[drummergirl1025]

right now they have 4. cindy, kate, keith, fred. for a while it was just kate, fred, keith. ricky died of aids complications. cindy took a break from the band after ricky died cause he was her brother. he was also keith's best friend so keith wrote the music for deadbeat club in memory of ricky.

[pibecba23]

this band reminds me a little bit of the band of bjork the sugarcubes! of course this is better! jaja

love this band!

thanks for share this!

[frankpaush]

...true, close relatives they are. B 52s are just more consequently following a concept of intelligent banality.

one of the most positive bands ever

[spikesp666]

Great song!

[DAVIDPINGAS]

muy bueno.

[B52sguy]

This song, 25 years later, is so appropos of that period, Kate. Thank you, Joe

[lastgoodguy2]

One of my favorite videos from the B's....can't wait for thier new stuff in "07".....love them
