@Abjurist Wow a shallow comment to make when you don't even personally know me. I was completely kidding when I made those comments. I like Oingo Boingo and respect Danny Elfman as a song writer and artist. I was just making a few jokes that relate everything back to modern meme culture. You should really stop judging people by comments they post because that isn't enough to tell you about their character.
@Abjurist Hardly. The real problem here is that you fail to realize everyone has a right to expression and art. Modern meme culture is just that for the present generation and it has a sardonic, comedic flare. Learn to take a joke.
@Abjurist That's only your opinion, and your entitled to it. Go ahead and feel that way all you want, but that's such a negative outlook on something that is only designed to deliver humor in a subtle way.
wow look how young and cute Steve is!! <3 man =)) and of course we all know how much i love Danny... Do i dear say it again.... I LOVE DANNY ELFMAN. SEXIEST MAN EVA!!!!!
@0xXsKiLLzXx0 The short hair wasn't the greatest look for him, but check out some other videos like the live at The Ritz 1985 videos. The man was at his smokin' hottest in the mid 80's.
everyone else is like, "chiodos is my life," or "immortal technique is my favorite poet" i myself never had a song ive really FELT. im not really one for clever lyrics. this song is probably the closest ive ever heard that made me say, "holy shit, thats me..."
I was 22 years old when I heard Private Life. After all these years I still love this song!! In so many ways I can relate to it. I miss Boingo and the 1980s!
When this song came out, I thought that Oingo Boingo had been getting worse, then this came along & just blew my socks off. To this day it gives me chills. I love these guys.
why are the comments on oingo boingo videos usually stupid? it's unusual... This is such an excellent song, video, and band... perhaps it's because people are getting into them from Tim Burton movies and the 'little girls' references on the internet.... ugh. Well, I suppose I'm glad that they are getting some popularity and attention.
@Logitah Not at all...it's actually a very sad song if you pay attention.
It's about a guy who's afraid of human contact. He's afraid to leave his room, which is really just a metaphor for his closed off insular life. No one seems to notice him through his windowshades, no one pays attention to him. He wonders "has it always been this way" since he was a kid. He probably has some kind of social disorder.
Can anyone tell me what year this song was released and played in the clubs? The uploader shows it as 2004 but I seem to remember this back in the 1980's
Such a discomfort with myself and that around me. I wish things would change, I wish something or someone would help me get my mind off of these uncomfortable things plaguing my mind. But nobody will hear me, nobody will notice me, nobody will get this off of my mind. I wish I could escape, everything in my room reminds me how much I hate my material self. What I've said, what I've done-- What I'm so uncomfortable with in this small reality. I wish I could escape to another world.. Sleep.
i am watching his songs when i am very sleepy O_O so creepy...i am like so scared cuz of his song, little girls,i am scared now O_O im scared he will look through my window O_O
@tchaik13 Im right there w u my friend :( try living w a husband whos seen them more times than u can count live and u havent heard of them till their freakin farewell concernt in 95!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS NOT FAIR:(
I love this song, I live at home alone and find scialisation hard so I relate iun a big way, I like how hes just collapsed on the bed at the end of the clip alone in silence, I feel like that, lonely.
So what's he singing about? How he has no friends or something more complex? this is my first foray into oingo Boingo outside of Wierd Science which was the only song of thiers I knew. I like this one.
Those guys in bowler hats shades and bow ties remind me alot of Madnes.
And well done Vevo but er year of song please? Why do they never say the year.
@bluejeckett This song came off the ' NOTHING TO FEAR ' album. It was released in 1982. Look up other Boingo stuff on youtube as I'm sure you'll like it.
why the fuck am i staring at rihanna when i want to stare and listen to someone who actual has talent? -_-
