Giving David Byrne a run for his money in the weird dance department
Watching this reminded me of how my friends and I danced like TMBG at high school dances in the 1980's -and none of us dated anyone.
@@naturalnashuan same
Random fact: Linnell played accordion on Byrne’s solo song “Civilizations” :)
Every TMBG Music vid
i wonder if these lads genuinely thought they'd still be around doin this shit nearly 40 years down the line when they were making this video
I think they just did what came naturally.
Probably not
I read an interview with linnell from either 1992 or 1993 recently, the interviewer asked him where he thought their career would take them, and he said (not a direct quote) that he expected them to continue on, fall out of the mainstream and develop a devoted but small-ish fan base, and that they would continue making music and touring until they were too old to keep doing it.
So, at least from that point on, he seemed pretty aware of where they were going and was eerily accurate with his prediction, I must add.
@@nolimit6377 I'm not sure they were ever IN the mainstream. I guess so in the 80s when they started out, but I think the New Wave craze in the 80s happened to be just as weird as they were.
@@nolimit6377I disagree I think they're pretty big and mainstream now and they definitely don't got a smallish fan base
Glad I can finally see what's in Flans' cup. For some reason I always thought it was noodles or spaghetti.
i just want to know if the cup survived.
I like how at 2:05 Linnell is done with the dance
Don't care + having fun + playing
20 years after the guy who is now my husband loaned me his Then CDs and this is still my favorite TMBG song.
I heard this song in a dream last night and had to listen to it like 10 times in a row this morning.
these guys are so freaking adorable, i love them.
_Ministry Of Silly Walks APPROVED!_
🎶Roll out that Puppet Head...
This is our favorite one!🎶
these music videos always feel happier when you realize it's just two dudes goofing around
My last two brain cells bouncing around inside my skull:
Catchy and melodic, AND a few of the lyrics hit pretty hard, especially the part about everyone trying to please their boss
I love this band. Their music resonates within me, and shows me who I am.
I am a fuckin' wierdo.
We all are
Your not alone! 😊✌🏻
Raise your freak flag and never be alone!
I think that's radiohead, we're all John!
if being a fuckin weirdo means being fuckin AWESOME then yes indeed and i am too
Just failed a test, needed this
I'm a grad student and I've never been a particularly great student if that helps.
if the pu-pu-puppet head was only bu-bu-busted in
@@dnr-vs1lk I'll see youuuuu afterrr schoooool
Sometimes you need to fail to truly succeed, don’t give up, I’m rooting for ya!
They look like they’re having so much fun! What a treat :-)
1:40- 1:58
them being silly and having fun dancing 🥺
The 1980's will *NEVER* die.
nearly a year since i first saw this now im going to see them live ouughguhguhguh help me
seeing the johns weird dance AND genuinely have fun doing it makes me so happy to see
One of the best TMBG songs ever!
Lyrics
As your body floats down Third Street
With the burn-smell factory closing up
Yes it's sad to say you will romanticize
All the things you've known before
It was not not not so great
It was not not not so great
And as you take a bath in that beaten path
There's a pounding at the door
Well It's a mighty zombie talking of some love and posterity
He says "The good old days never say good-bye
If you keep this in your mind:
You need some lo-lo-loving arms
You need some lo-lo-loving arms"
And as you fall from grace the only words you say are
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Ads up in the subway are the work of someone
Trying to please their boss
And though the guy's a pig we all know what he wants
Is just to please somebody else
If the pu-pu-puppet head
Was only bu-bu-busted in
It would be a better thing for everyone involved
And we wouldn't have to cry
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Memo to myself, do the dumb things I gotta do
Touch the puppet head
Quit my job down at the car wash
Didn't have to write no-one a good-bye note
That said, "The check's in the mail, and
I'll see you in church, and don't you ever change"
If the pu-pu-puppet head
Was only bu-bu-busted in
I'll see you after school
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
0:49 Linnell just looks happy to be there lol
The moment this song ends I start to hear "There's only 2 songs in me, and I just wrote the third..."
dunno where i got the inspiration or how i wrote the words
@@ronan-outoftimeSpent my whole life just diggin up my music's shallow grave
There's just two songs in me, and the third one.... I just made
@@lizthielke817(saxophone noises)
Another favorite. Y'all are so precious in these early videos (and now). So happy we finally get to see them in glorious HD!!
literally the best song ever made
I can’t stop listening to this song.
SAME
That's how they getcha
Instructions unclear, my hand IS the puppet head now.
SEE THEM LIVE!
Watching the reuploads Of the old Direct From Brooklyn videos feels like a visit from an old friend. I remember when I was very little watching the Direct From Brooklyn Videos all the time. (I still do, but the beginning of this video just gave me back some great memories...)
we must protect john linnell’s smile forever
how clear is Linnell's lisp at 1:12 heheh "inthide the puppet head"
literally nothing makes me happier
0:49 flans being genuinely into the shenanigans while linnell looks like he's just glad to be there aw
happy birthday first album
i used to find this song so annoying when I was little but now it's a nostalgic bop. Funny how time does that.
Theyre so cool i cant
THIS SONG CLEANSES MY FUCKING SOUL.
good quality uploads from the boys themselves!!
Loving all the Music Vids that I've been watching in Standard Def for over a decade getting their dues.
never did have a chance to catch this one. great as always boys, love seeing a couple lads cut up and have a good time with the music they've made. to the next 100 years!
Attention location spotters!
What do y'all think? Filmed in Southwest Queens from some old Port, now-gentrifed, on the East Bank of the East River, looking Westward?
That's my general guess. Maybe it's now a park? Any ideas?
IIRC, on the Direct from Brooklyn DVD commentary track they briefly discuss where this was shot. I can't recall the details though.
Flansy said something about it being next to a slaughter house near where he lived. I don’t know if this is 100% accurate but that’s what I remember
yes. TMBG foresaw youtube videos before anyone
I had these older videos on a VHS tape that TMBG released in the late 1980's. My brother stole it and now I'm glad I can see the videos again.
Yeah. And mp3
Absolute legends !
This is such a fucking banger
Puppet Head HD!!
Ich finde es toll das ihr re uplouds macht👍
Ich auch.
@@L0REN0R2Z0RR0 Komisch einen deutschen Top-Comment zu sehen xD aber ja stimme zu
I like them.
It's the most Linnell song that Flansburgh ever wrote.
How about Subliminal?
@@floridaflamingogirl3119 he wrote that one?
@@Vileplume87 yeah!
YES! THANK YOU!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!
i okayed this for my cat 10/10 would recommend for cats
What is the meaning behind the hand slaps to the neck at 0:52 and 2:07? I love it. Is it just about imitating a puppet being controlled?
Made on a budget of only $1500? You don't say XD Still charming as hell.
yas
Nostalgia I fucking loves these guys
oh good
And here ir is, my dream cametrue :)
Lets see Jimmy Fallon and Paul Rudd try to remake this
who up putting they hand inside they puppet head
perfeito
STILL. GOOD.
Linnell tongue timestamp: 0:52
Get silly
what is the significance of the giant head in 3 videos
That's the head of William Allen White. He's just a running motif in their earlier work.
@@phlog_dog7336 He technically still shows up even to this day. During a lot of live shows for years they'd still have his head displayed somewhere on stage, but I don't believe he's as prominent in recent years.
There's no real intended significance. They originally wanted to use the face of Orson Wells, but figured the legal troubles were obvious with that. It seems that they just found something interesting and charming about Mr. White's face. They've admitted that they didn't even know who he was at the time either. As he was a progressive-minded fellow, I think he would have been cool with TMBG.
@@phlog_dog7336 He still makes appearances at occasional TMBG shows/artwork.
apparently he was a journalist.
Memo to myself...
do the dumb things i gotta do.
@@dnr-vs1lk fill in the rest of the lyrics... erm, I mean, touch the puppet head
@@dnr-vs1lk I've had this line routinely running in my head for over 30 years whenever I have to do the dumb things I gotta do.
@@naturalnashuan like touching the puppet head?
young flans looks like my choir director
put uour hand inside teh pupey ear
Tommorow I’m telling a girl I like my feelings, needed this.
Unless she's familiar with this song, I wouldn't recommend asking her to touch the puppet head. They tend to take that the wrong way. That's just my advice, for what it's worth. I wish you the best.
@@0okamino sounds like you're speaking from experience there, champ
😜
Hey, you live and you learn. Sometimes it's just a matter of doing the dumb things you gotta do.
How did it go?
Return OSF she didn’t say anything, she probably doesn’t like em back but I will find out on Monday.
what the scallop
Hm. Now that I think about it, I adore Big Bird's music.
I'm not sure I wanted a video for this song.
Amazingly, no puppets actually appear in this video
How do we know the Johns aren't puppets
john looks like morrissey in this video
