Feel Good Friday: Brains For Breakfast
Friday, October 31st, 2008Not only did Jane Q. take a Misfits song, she also took The Ramones and Michael Jackson, but I’m not going to let that stop me. After all, I’ve only seen some version of the Misfits four times now, AND I saw Michale Graves on his solo tour promoting Punk Rock Is Dead, so I think I can go ahead and do some Misfits tunes, too.
First, here’s a video for all you dirty hippies. Peace and love, gang.
Now here’s one for the ladies. If only this were on a karaoke CD somewhere, because it would TOTALLY be my karaoke song. I would absolutely kill it, too (no pun intended).
“So, Ron. Since you’re going to link to like eight videos, since the Misfits are your favorite band ever… what’s your absolutely favorite all time Misfits song of ALL TIME, you goddamn son of a bitch?”
Why thank you, Overused Interior Monologue, I’m glad you asked. And for the record: I ain’t no goddamn son of a bitch! (Yes, that’s just a segue for the video. No, I’ve never seen Jerry and company play it live, much to my chagrin. Last time I talked to Jerry after the show, I told him I’d jump up and sing it. He said he’d think about it.)
Interestingly enough, the song is used in the Creature Features remake of the old Roger Corman B-movie Teenage Cave Man, directed by the gifted and creepy Larry Clark. Because I can’t let the reference slip by, the title of this post is a reference to yet another Misfits tune, oi oi oi.
Ginger has all the rest of the FGF action. I’m too lazy to post all the links here.
