"Surfin' Bird" is a song performed by the American surf rock band The Trashmen, which reached #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 [1]. It is a combination of two R&B hits by The Rivingtons, "Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow" and "The Bird's the Word"[2] and was released in 1963.

@ravenwolven The Trashmen were nearly sued by the Rivingtons....and had to give them credit! 'Tis a wonderful slice of music though....whichever way you cut it!

@IdleAl LOL, I take it you've never heard of the Trashmen? They were the ones that wrote Surfin' Bird in 1963. The Ramones did a remake of their song.

who is the real singer of this song?

I saw The Rivington's in concert in 1963 at Oakland Colusium. They sang this song and it was awesome. The crowd went wild.
