[minespatch]

Mr.Sluggo's in this?! Run, Mr. Bill! XD

So far ahead of its time - fantasitc. What a great band and video. I wish there was a definitive DVD/CD.

[whowelookinfor]

just a very rich character that is irresistible!

Primus did a tribute to kurt cobain...had the same effect on me...just like a 12 year old kid....i could listen to it over and over without tiring. kinda elevates my mood, too. (hope someone appreciates the lack of "LOVE" mentioned here!)

"Tender Lumplings everywhere, life's no fun without a good scare! That's our job but we're not mean, in our town of halloween! In this town, don't we love it now? everyone's waiting for the next surprise! Skeleton Jack might catch you in the back...." is it just me or are there TONS or refrences to other boingo songs in danny's newer music?

[BubbleRum]

@dragonholder411 Nightmare Before Christmas isn't new though, it came out in 1993, a year or two before Oingo Boingo's last album (which also has a song called Tender Lumplings). I think Danny just likes the phrase Tender Lumplings (can't say I blame him).

[JeromeMC93]

Tender Lumplings = Zombies? @.@

[NekoChanSenpai]

What the snap?

[TiniNormi]

I came.

[stevechasmar]

This is so wicked!

[BeXBaSSHYSTeRia999]

Who else think this song remind you of Pirates of the Caribbean or the Haunted Mansion from Disneyland? I know it isn't but Oingo Boingo captures an eerie feeling in this song that's just like it. Hahaha!

[bbqpanties]

Or, it's just like this. You know, being that this was made before those movies. :P

[thatsmyaibo]

@BeXBaSSHYSTeRia999 Every time I hear it!

I heard that Disney appointed Danny Elfman to design a new haunted mansion ride for ToykoDisney

[QXVV19]

These are the three guys who became the horn section for what became Oingo Boingo? Left to right Sluggo, Leon and Dale Turner? Or is that someone else in the middle?

[hobossuck2]

Dale Turner's voice for this is funny

[organs]

Wow...I posted this from the "Farewell" DVD, so my posting is more laden with live audience cheering. But this was cool.

[Nothingelsematters08]

AWESOME - i always wanted to see a video for that song/rant

[Endymion7Ra]

I always pictured the video to be like a bunch of pirates on a ship

[nateisneato]

Sluggo's bass voice is fantastic.

[PityOnThePawn]

I always thought it would look like this.

[kirkmach32]

Man does this bring back the lonnnnnnng agoooooo

[rorirub]

This was used as the intro in the Farewell live performance. The video is in MUCH higher quality on the DVD, but, the audio is not as clear as you can hear the audience cheer and clap along the song.

Nice info of the origin on the tune, though.

[somecreepykid]

lumplings.... of the tender persuasion.

[vaisteen]

Awesome.
