I'm kinda surprised no one has sampled the little "woo,woo,woo......" break for a hip hop track.This song and album rule.I'm on a huge ZZ kick right now.
After my dad died when I was 4, I'd listen to his mixed cd that had this song and many other great classics. I haven't heard it or even thought about it in probably over 10 years. I heard the song, "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown," which was on the cd, and came look this song up. it brings back memories of when i used to listen to it as a little girl to feel closer to my daddy.<3
Used to hear this song all the time on my local rock station. Best heard when I was pretty baked. Not THERE but on my way there. Wow! Way back then! Good times.
this always reminds me of a late summer day in like august. i used to love going down to the watefront downtown and smoke a fat doob then head to the bar up the road oh yeh!!!
@NiggerFunFacts niggers never existed, it was a word europeans decided to call us....but i'll quote my grandfather on this one......a nigga's a muthafucka, and a cracka's a bitch
When I use to go to Love Sreet on Buffalo Bayou in Houston it was called "Love Street Light Show." Saw Movin Sidewalk, Johnny Winters, the Elevators and other local bands I can`t recall every Fri. & Sat. night. I must be gettin old.
I always interpeted Cheap Sunglasses as a tribute to the simple things - the sunglasses being a metaphor for something useful that lasts forever, and can be obtained inexpensively. Diamond frames look nice, but the cheap sunglasses are rockin'. Or...am I overthinking this?
Don't wear cheap sunglasses, idiots. You're much better off not wearing them, as they often offer no real UV protection, but simply blocks off too much light, causing your pupils to dilate and causing even more damage to your eyes. Not to mention give you headaches.
@legionofdoom2009 I lolled at all the hate-filled replies to this. You're right. But I personally hate the light, and could care less about the UV protection. Any idiot staring directly at the sun would probably need UV protection as well as a straight jacket, but for the rest of us, UV protection in a pair of sunglasses is like putting wings on a car. Not fucking necessary.
Only a fokkin tone deaf beeber fever dolt could vote this a thumbs down..If you listen to this and aren't tapping your foot by the 4th measure you better get your music ticker checked, cuz you are seriously clueless and have no idea of where your music comes from...Funky Blues Rock music doesn't get much better than this...
if seen it 1982 live, and the two Guitar-Solo parts were the reason why I´m changed from Piano to Guitar,today I earn my money with the Guitar and the guillty one was Billy Gibbons.
First time i head this song was in Boston at a little joint with my dad 7 years ago. i was only nine but i made him go out and by me some cheap sunglasses so i could wear em for the rest of the trip haha
@KingmanOldDude I Know This From A Rolling Stone Interview & From Listening To The Lyrics,Talking About Waking Up In The Morning Going Out On The Streets To Get His Cheap Sunglasses,Not That Cocaine's A Cheap Drug But Hey I Read The Shit In A Magazine Interview So Who Knows
I had a pair of their "origionals" after release of this album that were with me for almost 10 years until I sat on them one too many times. Damn I miss those "Cheap Sunglasses".
My coworker was leaving, she had sunglasses that said JUICY on the side, I said "Juicy..." She started telling me how they were prescription sunglasses, so they were really expensive, and I started laughing about how they looked really cheap but were actually an expensive pair. Then Tim yelled out "ZZ Top!" and I started singing to her, "The choice is up to you because they come in two classes: Rhinestone shades or Cheap Sunglasses" She got all upset and left. Me and Tim danced to this song. ;)
@jackshit54942 You must be old. Im no being mean im just saying you oldies must have some fun, haha just for the record....im 12 and ;love rock n roll. classic;)
@theextinction2330 lol are you a boy or girl cuz if your a girl, then we atomaticly have to be frends lol jk if a boy...lol idk haha its all good haha cookie?what about a cookie?
For those of you who aren't already classic rock fans, listen to this song first. Then, immediately search for The Edgar Winter Group song called "Frankenstein". Listen to it.
