Awesome, this is the first time ever i have been able to watch a music video on youtube without my broadband stopping and starting, that either tells me that this video is very unpopular or my computer's broadband speed has increased due to the extra memory i put in yesterday!
Man, I remember listening to that song when I was nicking my sister's tapes, back in the days, and even though I couldn't understand shit (I'm from France originally), I always LOVED that song, and felt that it was ka-razay... I remember bouncing off the walls in my room as wee bairn, goddamn, music is brilliant when it comes to bringing people together.
This remains to me like one of the best examples of musical creativity and freedom, and Americana genius! Awesome video too!
to anyone who gave me a thumbs down i was talking about the guy who said the family guy version was the only good version FUCK THAT!!!b52s are awesome and family guy is retarded
omg why are all these people ruining this song for me? stop talking about family guy, this is an amazing song and it has nothing to do with wether it was on family guy or not.
I used to dance this with my friends from College-Pensacola Fla,in 1982 at the Seville Quarter Club-LOve it!Georgia,Carmen,Rosita and the rest of you, if you watch this send me msg
I havent heard this for AGES and I was in Ipswich 2day buyin a CD and it was on the radio in HMV and all the staff were dancing and singing to it. Fekkin great song.LOL
gaad... i had a cd with b 52 some time i though i lost it.. but found it for some time ago but desovert that this song was gone the best song ever.. and now iw herd it like 40 times in 2 days -.- BEST SONG EVER ^^
i remember dancing to this song in 1998. all my friends laughed.i love how silly and fun this song is but i love the bassline the most.have fun and dance with your friends!Love M.b.
I'm 21, I play guitar, and I have a considerable amount of respect for Ricky Wilson, their former guitar player. Self-taught, used alternate tunings, and came up with some cool sounds. It's a shame he died so young, but the great ones tend to go that way.
I love the animal part when the lead singer is shouting out the aquatic animals and the girls are annoyingly screaming. The thing is, why on earth are they singing 'bout lobsters and then showing WW2 footage?
And just to throw this in there, the lead singer looks like an annoying marine-loving, eco-friendly, "global-warming" fearing fool that i would grow greatly annoyed with and would have to jump off a cliff to my utmost doom because of his naval, monotone voice.
"Don't you wish that you can be a fly on the wall" "A creepy little sneaky little fly on the wall" I can't believe the B 52's ripped off Miley Cyrus's
Love the guitar in this....sounds so rockish...ROCK LOBSTER!!!
