Thrashmen «Surfin Bird» live 1963

[realfunny7]

i'm 62 & remember this like it was 2day just to cool whatta an era

[Kramnosnits]

all you filthy pottymouth losers....this IS the greatest music video in all history.

[dzilen3]

B52's & Violent Femmes definitely picked up on this style as source of inspiration. Great tune, awesome delivery!!!

[glict]

It's like the early version of Dougie hahaha

[VyantQuijt]

sooo.... where's the microphone?

[mr666jiggles]

Live performance? He's obviously lip syncing (note the lack of microphone until the interview begins and how out of breath he is when the interview starts). He also lies about having written the song at 3:35. What a phony little a-hole.

[Psychedozzzer]

@mr666jiggles they had mics hanging from the roof pre 65, theres even videos of the beatles without mics, and it's way different then the album version

[haloodst64]

its funny

[mrazbaby746]

i wonder what inspired him to write about bird being the word?

[Fifty1stState]

The essence of Punk.

[NewHopeNashFan]

Great fun.... 'I'd like to dedicate this song to the flock.....'

[StefanStojmenov]

i love this guy his dance is awesome

[NielsJuhh1994]

Nope, Walter Lewi

[ButtersTheBoss98]

the griffin family (excluding peter) disliked this XD

[Cryoniclime]

[orguggemada]

der mit den Augen blinkende Kakadu(?) im Hintergrund is Mega!

[mojojam13]

An early rock and roll conceptual video.

[himvalentino]

[turducken97]

[PPMETALHEAD]

AGAIN, AGAIN, I LOVE REPETITIONS!!! <3

Jajajajajaja.

[420simpson]

you can tell he lip syncs when the singing volume gets quiet and he stops singing along but the lyics keep playing. just saying. the sound begins to get quiet while he just stops singing which makes it seem he is just lip syncing.

[TheKSchwa]

scary shit

[heavylistener]

somehow I think its fake

[420simpson]

@heavylistener I agree. you can tell he is faking when the singing starts to slowly get quiet and he just stops singing the rest.

[sk85713]

What is he humping?

[MuteCar2009]

Briant don't!!!!

[chrisscoll2011103049]

is he having some sort of spazam

[andie531]

OMG - It's Pee Wee Herman!

[chrisscoll2011103049]

@andie531 i found my bike!

[danolindo]

eso demuestra que no se necesita ser un músico excelente para crear una obra maestra le doy un 100% un sonido embriagante y una sensación de querer volverse eufórico no he escuchado ningún tema a si ojala hubiera estado en esa época me hubiera sacado una foto con la banda y dejado la caga en las manifestaciones fumando marihuana

[germanui]

[chrisvlad2005]

@malibuconv1968 yo are a cunt!

[MajrMovieMadnes]

The singer looks nothing like i thought he would have.

[partyspecialists]

[YonderVillas]

@partyspecialists yes!

[dorradorrayanugget]

@partyspecialists punk rock was the anarchist movement in London in the 80s, really no link to this xD

[rolatrad]

@dorradorrayanugget late 70's

[BigJiggety]

@dorradorrayanugget Not too many movements are born ex nihilo

[xytsdx2]

@dorradorrayanugget late 70's actually.

[dorradorrayanugget]

[Eternal1234567]

This is when the mental diseases were discover hahahahahha

[FiberMania]

Hmmmmm...It's no coincidence that the USA lost it's mind right about this same time.

[weitulong]

Could you imagine if some tv show/nightclub/performer tried this shit today? They would be laughed out of a career. (Ashlee Simpson?)

And they wrote the song? They combined two of the Rivington's hits and got famous off of it. Kind of like how Eric Crapton got famous from covers.

[weitulong]

@weitulong That said, this song still has a place in my library, just because of the fact that I heard it first in Full Metal Jacket!

[13urning101]

its The Trashmen btw its not Thrashmen..Dumbass

[ReturnOfJackDawson]

awesome.

[DavelovesRealMusic]

This is NOT  "LIVE" he is lip synching BADLY to the record...but it IS the only footage of the original singer .....

[gatesrocks]

Probably the best sounding song ever with the worst lyrics ever.

[ReturnOfJackDawson]
