The Flying Lizards recorded one of the creepiest instrumentals I've ever heard. If someone out there in Youtubeland could upload "The Flood", it would be a welcome addition to these F.L. songs.
A masterpiece. If only people would laugh and create little music jokes like these, the world would definitely be a whole much better place to live. But at least, we have the Flying Lizards. Brillliant.
A shame that deborah ever left the band the other singer that took over just did not cut it THOUGH if deborah hadn't left the flying lizards i would never had got to work with her and in all that time i never said to her MONEY thats what i want !!
The first thing I heard by Flying Lizards was the single "Money" and it floored me. The first album I got my hands on was "Fourth wall" followed by "Top Ten". Both still sound just as fresh. When you refuse to follow other peoples rules your stuff doesn't seem to age like theirs does...
I recommend "Hands 2 take" or "Great balls of fire" as your next sample by them.
the Flying Lizards are wonderful. they remind me of hearing the lyrics to the Stones' 'Satisfaction' read as if by a stiff British stage actor, sometime back around 1970, and thinking it was the funniest thing I'd ever heard.
It's been about twenty eight years now, and she still looks good...ish. Well, I'd do her. When I saw all that upside down stuff I remembered watching this video on a late night video show around 1980.
Big fan of Flying Lizards 'Top Ten' album, and never knew there was actual videos for the songs. Thanks to Televandalist and YouTube for making history everyday, and the forgotten greats always memorable.
Awesome!! I have a bunch of VHS tapes from the 80 (that I sadly lost over the years) and this was one of the tracks that I used to watch endlessly with my brother. Love it!!
sound's like junk

How postmodernism could be fun and clever ?
Flying Lizards just match the right point between art and rock'n'roll
playing just a creativ attitude toward sound and images
with fuzzy and unpredictable promotionnal strategy.
FL are rares, clever and giftful with a variation size partcipation.
Three females singers and a few focus creation.
They are a step stone in Occidental creation of late xxth century,
bringing postmodernism to a humorus and creativ attitude.
