Devo - Girl U Want (Video)

[remotekontrolfanaded]

who is that girl with the pigtales and gum she was mad hot wonder wht she looks like now

[tamrakat]

At 1:37, my roommate in Tokyo.

[ElsHouse]

Serious question, why do fucking white people dance off cue but instead move in psynch with the lyrics?

[JackEppen]

2:45 is that keanu reeves??

[CheshireCatband]

got this record along w/B52's and other-worldly new stuff from uncle who moved to CA from home in Bflo NY in 1980. cool to be about 10 yrs old and have newest cool records from hip uncle(mom's bro)!

[jiggyy]

I kinda wish that Devo was with Vevo. Just 'cause DevoVEVO would look cool.

[BBT609]

I bet 10% of these girls are dead

[brigids9]

YES

[moaningfetus]

what is the name of those hats they wear?

[zetasong]

@moaningfetus energy domes!

[quizzicalsphinx]

@moaningfetus They're called energy domes. They're based on Mayan ziggurats and the bioenergy work of a quite-eccentric psychologist called Wilhelm Reich. The whole story is incredibly silly and cool, and there are directions all over the internet explaining the purpose of the hats and showing how to make one. Check it out sometime!

My yahoo email address is tcar4@yahoo.com

[morwelllad]

Does anyone know who the female in the second row, third from the right side with the dark hair and brown eyes is? Look at the 18 seconds, 44 seconds and the 46 seconds . Does anyone know her name?

[ShitSpooky]

In reference to below comment: I still want ALL those MILF's!!!! Hell yea!!!!!

[C45ACCTE]

Just think, right now, in homes all across the US, there are approximately 40 white women around 47 years old (and one black woman) who can say "I was in a DEVO video."

[morwelllad]

@C45ACCTE Do you know the female with dark hair and brown eyes at 46 seconds? If so, what is her name? tcar4@yahoo.com

Tony

Take care of yourself.

[C45ACCTE]

@morwelllad Sorry, can't help you.

[1EvilScooterKitty]

@morwelllad Not meaning to be an ass, but that video is over 20 years old. Nobody would know who that is.

[UltimateEnd622]

TANK GIRL!!

[PAINmanwhobecamegod]

epic. devo kills you

[TheWhanfried]

Portal.

Damn straight my brotha

[sublimeade]

wtf 2:37 .. is that a portal?

[JerryTKangaroo]

@sublimeade Dude...DEVO KNEW!

[mybeingrandom]

Thank you Rock Band for getting this song stuck in my head

[fastfreddy4429]

@SotR59 hahaha

[fastfreddy4429]

@TheSwordofrevenge  inthecorner? hahaha hahaha. funny. ....vveryfunny w

[NeroBaelside13]

WHITE PEOPLE

lol look at them try to dance

[JerryTKangaroo]

@TheSwordofrevenge Wow, racist comments, you like Green Day AND you believe in Ancient Aliens. You must be, like, twelve kinds of virgin.

[1970SuperBird100]

@spyrodonis Your right it dose look like Theresa Penelope "Terri" Irwin.

[angemala]

My dad used to love these guys, and when I heard them for the first time (I was born in the 80s), I was like "What the hell is this? Weird!" But it's grown on me

[MrByaeger]

@angemala the whole back story behind the concept of the band is a trip and worth looking up, besides the songs are great they just take some time getting used too. actuallt they are excellent musicians , even made their own keyboards. as a young skater in the late 70's into the 80's Devo was as essential as Punk was.

[TheSwordofrevenge]

@MrByaeger awesome. devo is the ultimate minimal wave rock band. punk rock is awesome because of its agressive minimal simple fast music.

[babybooo2]

@ribblock1 hahaha it totally does look like trey parker

[babybooo2]

Anyone else think the brunette with the curly hair at 0:45 is super badass?

[TheSwordofrevenge]

@babybooo2 shes hot. i think im all about the brunette pigtails tho with the gum.

[babybooo2]

These are the most punk rock girls I've ever seen.

[311superfly]

this is very BEATLES like with and AMERICAN take on things at the university level!

[arnaanna]

This kind of reminds me of Planet Z (if ya search for Cajun Queen and Susan Aqulia, you'll see what I mean. electric violin!)

[terebi916]

I've been a Devo fan for more than 30 years and I've never seen this video! I don't get it!

[agizmo8]

1:32 That is not a girl I want! :P

[Lifevirus4]

@agizmo8 yeah, i dont think that is a girl

[rattinox]

Back in my day, at the height of Devolution, only Martians tuned in to Devo.......and the Universal Church of Cosmic Uncertainty.....

[MrTrty5]

BEST SEX SONG EVER!

[danmuz92]

mmmmm Naaa me gusta mas la versión de los Chancho en Piedra!

[Phany72]

que paia, kkkkkkkk

[pearljamporch]

What a fucking great video!!!

[gobthebuster]

Why is the view count so low?

[nwlovell]

DEVO is so far ahead of their time, they haven't yet arrived on earth.

[onthemoveagain]

@nwlovell

Ha ha very witty comment,it's almost as if they're a new breed of human,probably a better breed...

Robert Nix Rock/Pop Artist

[Loqucious]

I was one of those long haired rocker dudes back in these days and I use to take so much crap for admitting that these guys were my favorite band. I look at them today and still think they are/were brilliant.

[TheVetoSkreeemer]

Devo , Hmm , when they came out I wasnt prepared for their sound, they looked and sounded weird for me. Now I find them awesome, unique, where hey ahead of their time? yup.

[moseyingdave]

Commercials in the MIDDLE of a music video? Are you kidding us Google? YouTube obviously needs more competition, because this is crap.

[kimelene2011]

the girls look like stepford teens on shrooms

[Sethhasheart]

What's the sign mean at 2:37?

[idontwantohurtnobody]

I fucked that chick at 2:o8 in every hole. In her mouth after her butthole. she was really nice...:)

[GurgMaster]

These guys were just funny! Sheez we could do with this sort of lightness in today's world! We used to have a ball to this sort of music!

[laughattack1313]

sounds similar to "Sensation" by Beat Crusader

[RokushoKiRa]

luv this song

[SotR59]

I have always thought the lyric was:

She sends out a hummer from under my hose

it drips on down right-a next to my balls.

[Jellyvibe]

@SotR59 Wait...you mean it's NOT???

[Cobainpunk74]

She's just a girl. Just a girl at the gay bar.

[ladyagrimony]

I like the girl with the missing tooth

[Gmissile]

Brilliantly funny.

Way Fukkin Cool Art Direction.

[MikeGipsonUSAF]

I WANT A KEYTAR O_O

[weezerfootie]

for some reason this live version sounds better /watch?v=vWylV2fkvpc imo

[BURN1NGx1NS1D3]

why the fuck is everything all blue? this video was just fine till fucking warner bros got their hands on it. like frank zappa said, "fuck warner bros!"

[MrTrty5]

I was playing Rock Band at a friend's house and this was one of the song's on the game. Now I was already into more punk-orientated stuff, and I only really knew Devo as being the "Whip It guys", but I had also just discovered they had their own impact on the punk scene, and I was curious to see what these guys might be like, so I played the song and... I FUCKIN' LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Ever since then I have De-volved at an extremely fast rate, and I love every second of it.

[SweetenThekitty96]

I was so distracted by the video, what is this song about?

[ddarth666axelington]

devo sounds like how life feels, if only devo were a real boy.

[douchewithlegs]

1:31 = totally a dude, looks kinda like Malfoy from hp~

[TyMan1229]

Is this about masterbating? lol

[lauraelizabethknight]

DEVO changed my life. This song and "Satisfaction" got me laid in the early 80s. Just sayin'.

[jasonmontes1492]

I really need to see them play this song live, but I’m actually excited to see Mark Mothersbaugh in the documentary “Programming the Nation.” It’s all about government conspiracy theories and subliminal messaging. bit. ly/qUuUCp

[MrTrty5]

GODDAMN MILKSHAKES!!!!!

[pjrg1919]

1:36 ... this is the only girl I would EVER want in this entire video.

[frostedhead]

@pjrg1919 Of course, she's a fuckin' whore. I want her too...

[TheMonkeydick]

The Poplockers are the shite!!!

[Gabrielvogel]

2:37

OH MY GOD

ITS A PORTAL!

Devo was thinking with portal way before Valve created the game!

[homer0383]

what do the signs mean near the end of the song?

[casperlok2dbrain]

Is this song about weed?

[311superfly]

THIS VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS WHAT I DONT LIKE ABOUT DEVO!THE VISUALS. I LOVE THE SONG (PLAY IT EVERY DAY LOUD)BUT DURING AN AWESOME SOLO BY BOB THEY WANT US TO WATCH SLOB BOY LOOSING HIS MILK.THEY ARE SO GOOD THEY SUCK.THEY OBVIOUSLY "WANT US TO SUFFER" WHILE WE TRY TO ENJOY WATCHING THEIR MATERIAL!

[dancinginfernal]

@311superfly No, they're just THAT fuckin' weird.

[TheWCWite]

Bad asss song.

[markblyn]

You've gotta love Mark's dancing.

[splintamike]

Everyone knew these guys were trouble as far back as 1980 - thats why we loved em!

[mrktacoma]

De-vo. Devolution

[Waterlinesystems]

@jimmyofadden.... you might have that backwards........although I think the Rolling Stones may have done 'Satisfaction" first. hummmm

[MultiJacob17]

Ted Bundy's favourite tune

[Frank289100]

Like the Beatles these Guys were geniuses.

[darksayain1]

@Frank289100 The beatles of America :P

[BenjaminFunkadelic]

@TheBass2themax I'm confused just off wiki alone; it says Beat Crusaders are from the mid nineties. Where as Devo are from the 70s?

[jimmyofaden]

i WOULD HAVE LOVED TO BE IN THE AUDIENCE FOR THIS...i AGREE WISH MY MOMMA WAS IN THIS VIDEO.bITCHIN SONG..COMPARABLE TO THE BEST THERE IS.

[MartialValor]

@jimmyofaden Thius song is actually just a rip off of an older song: Beat Crusaders - Sensation

I think its at least 40%-50% of devo songs come from Beat crusaders, Aki yayay, and Shimi peppers. Its not like they stole it, im sure they had permissions< but i hate in interviews how they say they are so different when they are just leeching of other bands, thoes are only the bands i know of, it could be much higher percentage.

[jimmyofaden]

@MartialValor Hi and Thanks for the info. Geez,In these days of rip offs I just didn't expect that Devo would do it too. But now you've given me some new searches to follow . I'm still in love with the New Wave sounds. The most recent band I've heard that still follows this beat is Fountains Of Wayne... So hey, Thanks again, and if there are other bands that you could recommend taht are out of the oridary for this genre please say..;) Jimmy

[ApesMasCage]

@MartialValor So, you're telling me that Devo has a functioning time machine? Those sneaky, time traveling bastards!

[MrTrty5]

@MartialValor Ummm, Sensation came out in 2004. This song was first released in 1980, and if you watch the video for Sensation, you can tell from the visuals that there is no way in hell it was released before 1980.

[igotyourmoney23]

fun fact: girl at 2:09 is my mother.... embarrasing XD

[carlsetzer]

@igotyourmoney23 I wouldn't be embarrassed, I'd be proud. I wish my mom was cool enough to be in Devo video.

[emau99]

@igotyourmoney23: Well, then, your mother is really freaking cool! ;)

[TurkBack2]

@igotyourmoney23 At least that's not her at 1:10.

[igotyourmoney23]

@TurkBack2 ROFL. true

[billylopez68]

@igotyourmoney23 Shes like one of the 2 attractive girls in this video haha!

[EarlofCrawford]

@igotyourmoney23 Hard to believe we all lives before you were born, isnt it? We were just as silly as we accuse you of being...if not worse. We blame the Cold War for our weird behaviour.

[BBT609]

@igotyourmoney23 You gotta be shitting me right???? lol. HAHAHA!!! Hey, now you get to see what she looked like back then lol. Funny lol.

[Boganator4]

@igotyourmoney23 how did that happen? lol

[igotyourmoney23]

@Boganator4 she was a walk on extra

[frostedhead]

@igotyourmoney23 I'm so sorry for you...

[igotyourmoney23]

@frostedhead lol why

[djohm23]

It's been so long...i forgot everything was purple in the 80's

[stinkyfishermen]

DOWN WITH VEVO, UP WITH DEVO!

[GenialIdea]

siempre evocando a los años cincuenta

[bretangel79]

mom? you were in a DEVO video?

[MODULOSANCHEZ1]

buenas la mina y el corte brek dance del bailarin yeeeaaaa

[wes61471]

Look at some of the bands who have covered this song, it's pretty cool. I think my favorite cover and video I've found so far is Simon Stinger.

[wes61471]

[GorillazBeatles]

Thumbs up if you first heard this from Tank Girl... Or anywhere else.

[MrTrty5]

THIS IS MY FAV SONG RIGHT NOW!!!!

[CSWRB]

So different from other music and cool for it's time. Great band and fun song . Soundgarden covered this. Their version is pretty good. Do a search and check it out for ourself.

[k77jones]

and this was supposed to be the future of rock music.

[ExtremePeppers]

@k77jones I bought every DEVO album from the late 70s and early 80s. Ive also seen every Van Halen concert starting with the 1980 Invasion tour. The future is here. Hip Hop and Justin Beiber keeps all the girls wet,and all the wiggers tough.

[k77jones]

@ExtremePeppers

justn bbr is the future (now) of rock?

wtf happened?

[mfactor88]

imho THIS song should be the theme song for "Big Bang Theory" not the pissy one they use now. because BBT is all about The Girl U Want..... m49

[agneumeyer]

No Youtube! I said more DEVO! Not more VEVO!

[JohnRichard1991still]

So purple...so green...

[777Logos]

Look at you with your mouth watering. Look at you with your mind spinning. Why don't you just admit it's all over.She's just the girl you want......

[troyrkd]

the chick at 1:09 is freaking me out.

certainly NOT the girl I want!

[frankblues]

is Keanu reeves the last guy in the crowd?

[jachirinos]

Devo is best band ever! and the world still don't get it....

[cochranexyz]

Always wondered where these girls are now....

[kisslena]

"She sings from somewhere you can't see, she sits in the top of the greenest tree..." Devo was a trip. LOL

[doctorshifty83]

I could have sworn that Soundgarden did a cover of this song from the 'First Kid' soundtrack...of course I didnt know Devo wrote this until years later. I didnt know alot about music when I was a kid. lol.

[modernmassage]

This video isn't suppose to be purple.

[777Logos]

She's the real thing but you knew it all along......

[torped0vegas]

1.32 is that...chris lilley / J'amae?

[forust98]

[tasha1494]

[spunkeyproducts]

@bigbarry999 did you expect hot girls on a devo video?

[chrisocony]

You might think back to your youth and feel like, "Hey I think Devo would be good for kids" - you know, music you can play your kids because of their fun and zany nature. Then you listen closer and realize, no way. These boys are DARK, wolves in sheep clothing.

[piginasack]

@chrisocony - Thats why you play them to kids. It fires up the brain.

[ang9300]

@chrisocony what you mean by this??

[frinkmhey]

@chrisocony

What the hell are you talking about? These guys are perfect Role Models for children. They're not the wolves, they're exposing the wolves.

[TheBass2themax]

@chrisocony u r nuts

[Dark18516]

@chrisocony how are they bad?

[toobsockproductions]

@chrisocony haha! yeah they're all about being sarcastic and cynical about things, but if you don't listen too hard you won't even realize it!

[dantezco]

@chrisocony Yeah, because nice mellow music has done WONDERS for the youth... cof cof EMOS cof cof

[MrBillcale]

@chrisocony i want dark kids, thats why i married a sicilian

[sonicdeath10]

@chrisocony Oh god Devo's too cerebral for kids.

[jwilson07]

@chrisocony , FINALLY someone gets it! Dark genius and completely amazing, that is DEVO!

[madjimms]

@chrisocony DARK? Since when is sex DARK? Get your fundie bullshit out of here..

[SavannahsCeramics]

I'm a one eyed, one horned, flying purple people eater.

[Grandpaconway]
