Oingo Boingo - Ain't This The Life?

[jcaster2000]

Brilliant!



[SirReal1958]

WTF !!! Towards the end of the song, I can actually see some of Bart Simpson in Danny Elfman's facial expressions.

[urmerm]

Very few bands are good live. Lookit! Danny Elfman is good live, who would've thought? :D lol

[Sicvicious]

@urmerm Elfman is a God, of course he'd be good live

[MagzHalo]

I started goin to their shows in 1983, at least 2 a year every single year until the farewell show on the final nite. And they never got old, never got stale, never lost an ounce of energy or commitment. it got better every damn minute til the very last second. And Danny is /still/ ruling the universe. So is Avila. I assume the others are as well. Bless. Wasn't that the life. xx

[ScaryGhost1]

I remember seeing them live in San Diego a LONG time ago. Great band! Wish Elfman would get his hearing back so they could perform.

[eedobee]
