Blksun this is not Oingo Boingo or conservative Danny Elfman in case you didn't know. It's a parody song, something like Weird Al's Beat It which was clearly about an egg, a song he was singing in response to Michael Jackson's Beat It. We aren't clear what MJ was beating though, are you saying it was an egg too? Dork.
Sigh. You knuckleheads do realize that Danny Elfman, the guy who wrote this song, is a Conservative. The song is about wussy, permissive Lib parents and a society that coddles it young.
Remake it about Obama then it would make more sense.
You're last comment is retarded and, btw, as much as cons like to think so, Elfman is no conservative, he's an independent, and in his own words he was 'wildly left wing before I went to Africa and somwhere in the middle when I returned home'. See song: War Again See song; Insanity and, btw, go f yourself )
One of the things I always liked most about Elfman and Oingo Boigo was their sarcastic sense of humor. I would not call Danny a conservative...nor would liberal fit him either. just a free thinker who poked fun at whatever he disagreed with. As for the 'Lib' parents comment...conservatives are just as likely to turn a blind eye, it just points out that it happens. My opinion anyway. Too bad Delta Nove doesn't appear to have the skill to pull off the instrumentals...but a fun parody nonetheless.
I did the visuals for Delta Nove last week. Best live band ever! I am put'n togeather a video on "The American Dream" any way I could get a high-qty copy of this? I would love to add it to my live shows and new video. Peace on.. POPSmaroon
I'm afraid we don't own the rights to the original song. We produced and released this version on our label, so this video is perfectly legal for us to produce. A new video with the original Boingo version wouldn't be. Maybe you'll find it in your heart to put this one on your page anyway.
It was kind of funny in a benign sort of way, but its hard for me to listen to this and NOT pine away to hear Danny Elfman sing again. But alas, we may never hear his raunchy, sweet, sexy voice ever again except as a Tim Burton character.<sigh>
I can't put into words just how much I love this. You should be on TV, and on stage. Monty Python is clearly coming back and I love it.

i am fine with a remake but why change the story of the song so much
coolobiwan 5 years ago
its more of a parody. i think it makes it unique and more applicable for what we are dealing with politically right now.
