@stephenaxlscott , Punk died? Hardly.

When I first first heard this, I thought for sure it was a Japanese gal singing it.

@MisterAAnderson The only reason I heard this song & group is because I was alive at the time. Pretty much the same reason you would have heard Stacys Mom by Fountains of Wayne. What's freakin' weird is there has actually been a "Flying Lizards Greatest Hits" CD. I'm not joking. Scary, really.

@Mihcaelkoppel When I was a boy, geriatric arrogance involved being slashed with broken bottles and doused in petrol, while the old farts kicked your burning, charred body and laughed about our hatred of Burl Ives. But you try telling people of today these things, and they won't believe you.

@stephenaxlscott Nothing like a bit of geriatric arrogance on an old music video

@stephenaxlscott They're song was in Lord of War, that's the only time I heard this song and of this musical group.
Art-History lesson kids: 1979
Saddam Hussein takes power in Iraq.
Skylab came crashing down (Google it).
Michael Jackson releases the smash "Off the Wall".
Punk is practically dead, the New Wave is rising; & an eclectic, if petulant mix of electronica starts flirting with the mainstream (eg Gary Numan).
The Flying Lizards (named cause they'd never succeed) were artists looking to make a buck, & a stabbing comment on society using a soul song - performed with no soul.
It's called irony.
