  • YYYEEEEESSSSSSS!!! OH-OH-HA-HAAA I LIKE IT!

  • Great tune, loved this movie!

  • this song should have been a #1 hit.

  • With the exception of the fabled Premium Gold compilation that the Tubes.com webmaster can't verify, the only place I know of its existence was on the "Sports Fans" single. My buddy Seth's dad is a massive Tubes fan, and Seth did me off a copy.

  • @epsteinsmutha1 Your right, it's the B side of the Sports Fans 7 inch German pressing on Capitol 1C006-86 487. I'm a happy owner of a copy.

  • Thanks for posting. This song never made it to the record store because it was a radio promotion song for the movie only. Stupid contract fucked us out of this awesome song. Glad you found it somehow!!!!

  • @Landotter1

    Are you one of the Tubes?

  • @Dreaded88 Nosir...

  • song fits so much 2day...

  • 3 PEOPLE CAN`T GET IT NEXT TIME!!!

  • THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! :-)

  • Old news, perhaps, but this was the B-Side to "Sports Fans" when released.

    YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSS! WHOA-HA-HA-HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIL­IKEIT!

    (snif)

  • @epsteinsmutha1 I thought this song was never realeased on an album?

  • Great Song from 81! Cool Movie too.

  • Love this song and "Falling", by comsat angels from real genius. Both movies also star Patti D'arbanville.

  • Fuck this movie. I happen to be a guy in Ballet and the scene in this movie where he beats the shit out of a male dancer and blows his balls up is a disgrace to guys in Ballet everywhere.

  • @AdidasCollection Funny... Barishnikoff didn't seem to have a problem with doing such a scene.Maybe it's because HE KNEW IT WAS A JOKE!! 

  • The Tubes ROCK!!!

  • =Nice Bongs out--

  • This song is going to be released on the remastered Completion Backwards Principle from The Tubes April 5th, 2011

  • @cantstopfishing Oh man, I hope they don't zero-level it in the mixing... That tends to ruin good songs.

  • hmmmmmmm!!!!!!! One of my favorite songs.... from one of my favorite movies.

    Thanks so much for posting this! It was incredible to finally hear it in stereo!

  • i jog to this song. it is completely awesome!!! thank you for posting !!! i personally think it is the Tubes finest moment

  • Hell Yeah - I saw this movie AT THE MOVIES and always thought this song ROCKED!

    Thank you for posting it!

  • Man I haven't heard this song in a hot minute

  • Bands today should go back and listen to tracks like this so they can learn how to really rock, because I don't think they have a clue.

  • I never knew this was from The Tubes!... imagine it only took me 30 years to find out!!! :O

  • @VincentValdemar I was thinking the same thing! ROFL!! LOVED this song, and the movie, and just found out it was by The Tubes! Too funny!

  • Thi song was awesome-thank you for posting!!

  • I wish this song came on a CD along with the movie on DVD. That would be awesome!

  • I could listen to this song all day.

  • great song! I wonder what kind of car Chevy Chase drove in that movie...was it a Lancia?

  • @randy0987 Yes, it was a Lancia,,, Not the more desirable Scorpion, like used in "Herbie Goes To Monte-Carlo", but still a Lancia. And probably completely rusted-away by now, like many lower-price cars from that era & area of origin did, sadly....

  • Man, it sucks that this isnt on iTunes. I would download this in a heartbeat. I dont think that it was ever released.

  • Super Tight!!!! neva new who did this song. all i know is moms had it on VHS and i popped it in, FF it to the end just to listen to this song. u are most excellent for posting this, big dogg!!

  • This song is baddass.

  • does anyone know how i can buy this song? i love the tubes and i want the complete library!!!!

  • No you're right,this song totally rocks.

  • Dabney Coleman is fuckin' asshole in this movie. Other than that the song is great...Viva La Chevy!

  • the keyboard solo in the middle of the song KICKS ASS!

  • OMG! It was sooo hard to find this song after the movie came out!!! I love this song!

  • I love Chevy Chase...he has old fashion jokes in some of his movies that only a few people actually get. >.> I guess you have to be from the 80's or older...

  • I dont understand why people think this movie sucks. This movie was and still is funny as fuck. One of the best movies he ever made.

  • Thanks for posting this. I, like others here, have been looking for a CD that has this song on it. I just love this song.

  • I believe that Steve Lukather is playing on this track.

  • Loved this song.

  • I loved this movie and this song, I remember waiting till it came on HBO great era in music and movies

  • This song needs to be available on CD!!

  • I've been looking for this song!! Loved it when I was 13 watching Modern Problems on cable. Thanks!

  • The first R rated flick I was allowed to watch and I remember our local rock station actually played this song;I thought this was the tubes best song;ironic it was a soundtrack song haha.Thank you so much for the post!

  • wow! forgot about this movie! where can i watch the whole thing? anyone? hello?! .......hello?.................­..well, anyway, love the movie and clip!! thanks!!

  • I wonder how many movies since 2000 will we remember in 20 years...I bet we will barely remember any let alone the music from them..

    80s entertainment rules!!!

  • I love the movie and love the song! Thank you for posting!!

  • "Modern Problems" is without a doubt Chevy Chase's worst movie, and my family always razzes me about liking this movie as a kid just because Chevy was in it. Still, if you enjoy seeing Chevy acting bad, it can be watchable. Can you imagine downloading the theme from "Modern Problems" on your iPod for a laugh?

  • Modern Problems was bad but Under The Rainbow and Oh Heavenly Dog were worse in my opinion. Not to mention some really awful films he made in the 2000s.

  • Comments like yours are useless in this domain.This is about the song RETARD!

    Why are you here looking at it in the first place???

  • This song was only made available on a Capitol release 45 rpm. It was released to radio stations and was intended to coincide with the movie's release. Tubes were quite an act to follow back in the day. They used elaborate costuumes and gave up one hell of a performance live.

  • @hamletms True, it wasn't that good... But, it had it's moments.And having saw it twice now... in the past few years... I can see now why the promotion campaign included a full-page ad in Boys-Life Magazine. Probably would have never noticed it, or even bothered to see it otherwise all these years later, when I'm able to appreciate the nature of it's nuances & humor.

  • remembered liking this song from the movie when i was a kid, took me years to find it, but here it is..... cool, thx for posting

  • such a great movie and of course a great song

  • Dont forget to add &fmt=18 for the HQ video / audio.  :D

  • SO AWESOME!

  • I've been looking for this tune forever and a day! 'Ive been trying to find the MP torrent just to get THIS SONG!!! Thank you so much for posting!!

  • Comment removed

  • You hit gold...That single goes for over $100.00, and it's pretty rare.

  • This maybe some of the Tubes best work, it's a shame you can't find this song on any of the Tubes greatest hits. Thanks for posting.

  • this was so great! i love this movie.

    i wish i could find the full version of the movie here though.

  • @ladyamerias I just bootlegged a copy from on-demand programming via DVD-recorder awhile back... Made good viewing while waiting on a friend's doctor appointment on my porta-player!

  • I think the reason for this song being so hard to find is because of the publishing rights. The song was written by the movie soundtrack author(Not The Tubes).

    The CD version is impossible to find. It could be the Premium Gold Collection was pulled because of this songs rights. I have the full length stereo version that I transferred from the single that was released in 1981, if anyone wants it.

  • Yes can you please send it to me, I would appreciate it.

  • Love to have the full version of this.

  • @lespaul667 This explains alot... Like, why the theme for certain scenes was a slow, instrumental wood-&-brass combo cover of it.

  • Logged N Just to say; This is FKn Great. Cant belive there are other idiots that look this stuff up too.

  • ALRIGHT!!! I knew I wasn`t the only one that thinks this song rocks!

    VERY TRUE, can never find this song!!!!

    When I was young I used to put my tape recorder near the t.v. and record this song off the movie!!!! THANKS FOR THIS HIGH QUALITY RECORDING and video!!!!!

  • You are very welcome. glad you enjoyed this video

  • @njdave71 i was looking for this song for years

  • @njdave71 Thanks for the vid. Rock on.

  • omg i did the same thing with my tape recorder. lol

  • @sassybear1000 I was right there with ya when I was a kid. Also, I did this with Big Trouble in Little China.

  • @sassybear1000 Why is this not on iTunes? Or why was it never released as a single? Pisses me off...

  • Comment removed

  • Ditto!!!!! i always thought he was super cute too....my guess is with a name like chevy chase hes got a HUGE Wanger!!!!!!!

  • @sassybear1000 YES!! I had looked pretty long for this song, and finally found it on a P2P program. Apparently it has never been released on CD. Supposedly, though, it was put on a gold hits Tubes CD, but I can't even find it on the internet!

  • @sassybear1000 oh my god, i did too! i was a great recording artist as a kid with my cassette recorder! my favorite other song was the closing song for wkrp in cinncinnatti

  • I've been looking for this song for years! Thanks for posting it!

  • your very welcome and glad you enjoyed the flash back.

  • Where can I find this song? I have been searching for years but can't find it anywhere.

  • For some reason, The Tubes have made this song very difficult to get to. You'll find it on The Tubes: Premium Gold Collection...but good luck finding that as it's been discontinued. Perhaps finding the Modern Problems soundtrack is easier. I'm sure there's an mp3 floating around somewhere.
