He acted in the background of a few films in the 70s, His only major role was in his brother Richard's movie Forbidden Zone. Other than that, him and his old band played small roles in Hot Tomorrows and I Never Promised You a Rose Garden.
Baville and if I'm not mistaken, the "Desperate Housewives" theme, as well as the sweetening in the background in the show. and maybe wrote the theme and sweetening for "beetle juice" also. a very talented man indeed.I am a big Boingo Fan.
Got to meet him briefly backstage after a concert. So quiet and shy. Maybe he was worn out after the show, but so nice. I was and am the hugest fan of anything Danny Elfman. A major talent!
lol omg me too!! very briefly, like you said! and indeed, he was quiet, but nice! he had manager or guard or something with him trying to usher him away but he still stopped and listened to my tiny, awkward schpeal of praise. mine was outside after a concert, so he was really just trying to get to their car, so it was extra nice that he/they even humored me at all. you never know what weird people could be out there, as well. So yeah I tried to be brief while still conveying my, well, gratitude (get it?) and he said thank you. Even though it was so quick, I went home feeling all elated. He's been my favorite since I was about 8 or so...I grew up listening to him, so to get the chance to actually thank him in person was really nice.
YOU ARE SO LUCKY!! Back home in Chicago I gave him black Rose's and me kept smiling at me . Hey, I'm gorgeous, can't help it. Lol! (A lot of people have said that about me and I always am appreciative). But I would've loved to talk to him because we're both morbid. Lol. I still have a major crush on him. What did he have to say to you if u don't mind my asking???
Hello !! I dont knwo if you have been active online BUT our king Mr Elfman has released a new album called "Big Mess". Coming from a long time fan i can safely say, its an instant classic :)
Boingo members: 1:22 Leon Schneiderman 2:18 Dale Turner (my favorite Boingo) 2:48 Steve Bartek 3:24 Johnny Vatos Hernandez 3:26 John Avila (first appearance as a member of Oingo Boingo) and... the man who started it all: 2:26 Richard Elfman Update: And apparently, the man who REALLY started it all: 3:18 Milton Elfman (Danny and Richard's dad!)
So original in style. He has the voice to be a word class voice actor. And the look, persona and, presence to be an actor. Or he could compose amazing music
I turned on a song called gratitude. spaced out listening to the song, looked back to see a man cartweel into a room with an electric chair with a no smoking sign on the wall and proceeds to continue jamming as they strap him in. I like it:)
Steve Bartek's crazy guitar solo and body spasms are so cool in front of the animated Danny Elfman So-Lo background! Gotta love the eyeballs popping out!
@@MarkKing-gd1uu I wore out "Good For Your Soul" in 83', still in H.S. 16 years old. Pumping Petrol at an old HESS Station on Atlantic Ave and 102nd-103rd Street in Richmond Hill, New York WORD to the Muthafukka!!!
Omg same. I lived on Oingo Boingo in my late teens, and grew up dancing to Tim Burton's movies. I'd ask my mom to replay the tapes to hear Beetlejuice and Nightmare Before Christmas over and over
I love how this man along with John Williams formed my childhood soundtrack and also simultaneously is a rock n roller like I am as an adult, it’s amazing
I can’t believe I just found out Danny Elfman was the singer of Oingo Boingo! Awesomeness. He’s smart and comedic in his videos. He’s fucking amazing. Hot back in the day.
I just found that out this because I was watching a Halloween thing of the Hollywood ball and he was doing some songs from the nightmare before Christmas and then he played dead man's party and then I looked up if he was really in the band onigo boingo.
(oh I'm 3yrs late but) He released an album during the plague and it has helped my soul as much as the Boingo catalogue. I hope you've checked it out (it is heavier, like industrial but also with strings and choir)
Lyrics: Life's been so good to me Has it been good to you? Has it been everything That you expected it to be? Was it as good for you As it was good for me? And was it everything That it was all set up to be? (Now, is that gratitude?) Now, is that gratitude? Or is it really love Some kind of reality That fits just like a glove Now, is that gratitude For everything I've done Or is it something else That's got me on the run? In the middle of a big tornado On the tip of everyone's tongue In the belly of a giant whale All the girls just wanna have fun In the look of a frightened neighbor In a big, warm bed at night In a broken elevator In the teeth of a dog that bites In the middle of a revolution In the look of a child's face In the silence of the dinner table In the stillness of disgrace But when I think of you And what you've done to me You took away my hope You took away my fantasy I once had lots of pride The world was in my hands I lived way at the top Of castles made of sand Ooh... I dream of you sometimes In the middle of a big tornado On the tip of everyone's tongue In the belly of a giant whale All the girls just wanna have fun In the look of a frightened neighbor In a big, warm bed at night In a broken elevator In the teeth of a dog that bites In the middle of a revolution In the look of a child's face In the silence of the dinner table In the stillness of disgrace Now, is that gratitude? Now, is that gratitude? Now, is that gratitude? Now, is that gratitude?
I remember my math theacher putting on this song on the last few minutes of class and everyone else tougth it was weird and bad while i was sitting at my desk thinking "what is that melody!?" I also absolutly loved the video clip of this (Btw this was like 2 yrs ago)
yep, this song/album is pretty much a Oingo Boingo track. from wikipedia: "Oingo Boingo guitarist Steve Bartek stated that So-Lo was "mostly a band record", but that MCA "wasn't particularly interested" in Oingo Boingo and so had signed Elfman as a solo artist. However, Elfman wanted to continue the band and convinced MCA to change his recording contract to Oingo Boingo following the release of So-Lo."
This is one of my favorite songs by Danny and the music video is just so twisted and so Danny! The part with the devil watching them play poker while there walls are jumping is just brilliant.
Gabriel Leroux The Video was directed by Graeme Whifler, who also directed music videos for the Residents, Tuxedomoon, MX-80 Sound, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Sparks. He lives in California and was born in San Mateo in 1951. He is an oddball but a goddamn genius.
In the middle of a big tornado, On the tip of everyone's tongue... In the belly of a giant whale, All the girls just want to have fun. In the look of a frightened neighbor, In a big warm bed at night, In a broken elevator, In the teeth of a dog that bites. In the middle of a revolution, In the look of a child's face, In the silence of the dinner table, In the stillness of disgrace. (GREAT SONG TO ME!)
This reminds me of moving to Los Angeles and trying to meet Danny as a teenager... half nostalgic half cringe I had a leather jacket with the back painted with m cover of his so lo album and the one sleeve skellington the other one Edward scissorhands I was such a Danny elfman groupie when I was a kid....
see, I'm 15 and none of my friends understand why I think Danny Elfman is so hot and I'm literally here just screaming "dO YOU EVEN SEE HIM IN THIS VIDEO??" and his voice always sends chills down my spine, he's so amazing hnnnng
The weird thing is that he almost always wears a "wife beater" (white tank shirt for those outside the US) and sometimes suspenders and you STILL want to jump him! I have a hard time understanding him being married to Bridget Fonda. Not that I dislike her, far from it, I just can't picture them together or picture her standing nearby when Danny has his creative sessions with Tim Burton. Wow. Just..... I can't.
Miss Who I'm 15, almost 16. I find him attractive as well, you're not alone :) I am glad I'm not the only teen nowadays listening to Oingo Boingo, haha.
I am a HUGE YUGE Danny Elfman fan! Love his voice. He is as amazing as they come. I will always be a Danny Elfman and Oingo Boingo fan until the day I am laid to rest!
I like the Lighting effects in the first min. of the vid. very innovative. seems to make his face change from evil to Angelic. [ The Ying and the Yang.] looks like the lamps are on the right [ Left on camera ] just out of frame. and another above [ out of frame ], reflecting off of the water, and then the goose neck on the desk. to his left [ Right On camera ] I will have to remember that effect, very interesting. at 1:58 he reminded me of Anne Lenex in the "love is a stranger" video at the point where she in the car singing "And I want You,And I want You, So, ITS an OBSESSION! " with that intense look on her face, shaking her gloved finger at us.
From Riverside CA; now long relocated to the East. Still love me some Oingo Boingo/ Danny Elfman. Have now introduced my five year old twin boys to this music. Gratitude is one of their favorites. Along with Stay, Dead Man's Party, and many more...
I sure do miss the 70s and 80s. The music today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
Oh man...this was such a great time! My teenage years shaped by 80's music..and this band was my absolute favorite. Seen them many times!! Awesome, and simpler times!
I know he's not an actor, but he'd have made a hell of a Joker.
He did Jack Skellington’s singing voice.
He acted in the background of a few films in the 70s, His only major role was in his brother Richard's movie Forbidden Zone. Other than that, him and his old band played small roles in Hot Tomorrows and I Never Promised You a Rose Garden.
He's more of a riddler type guy.
And remember kids, this guy created both the Batman _and_ the Simpsons theme.
...And now also the Avengers theme. Well, at least a variant of it.
Baville and if I'm not mistaken, the "Desperate Housewives" theme, as well as the sweetening in the background in the show. and maybe wrote the theme and sweetening for "beetle juice" also. a very talented man indeed.I am a big Boingo Fan.
+Baville Don't forget the Weird Science theme song!
Oh, oh...I think he did the singing voice of Jack Skellington too.
The Alexis Yes, he did.

I’ll fight you for that title…!😉 Elfman has been and always will be my numero uno performer. Period.
I can understand him stepping away from Oingo Boingo for the sake of his hearing, but man he's got a golden voice

he is literaly still the same tho😭😭💔
Possibly the most underrated talent on music.
not by other musicians though
I feel like he's rated just fine, just under appreciated for sure
What makes you believe he's underrated?
No way! Every one knows The musical genius of Danny Elfman. Not everyone enjoys being in front of People. Pretty sure he’s found his niche.
Every time I hear a music score that gives me chills it always turns out to be Danny Elfman.
I am so attracted to this guy, his voice and mannerisms I love it so much
Me too 😍😍😍
LITERALLYYY
Weird
Just wait tell you see his body even for his age! Look up His tattoos!
@@jin2669 can I ask you something? Are females even attracted to males bodies ?? Or is it just their genitals ?
I need to listen to this at least once a day otherwise I'm not the same man I was before
Everybody needs it

Same!
did i catch that reference ⁉️
Anyone else want to join the church of Danny Elfman after watching the part where he's slapping the demons out of people?
yes
You can start it if you want
Sign me up
Member of the secret society ☠️
It's better than Church 😇
Hell yes. I can't believe I'm replying to an 11 year old comment, but whatever.
Danny Elfman is such a compelling performer to watch. I can't look away from him when he's on screen.
So original in style.
He has the voice to be a word class voice actor.
And the look, persona and, presence to be an actor.
Or he could compose amazing music
Yeah he is so intense and pretty good singer❤.
I love how he bends his voice, and hits all those sweet spots. Such a fantastic voice.
I also love how he's always in a wifebeater lmao
I turned on a song called gratitude. spaced out listening to the song, looked back to see a man cartweel into a room with an electric chair with a no smoking sign on the wall and proceeds to continue jamming as they strap him in. I like it:)

As a teen in the mid-1980's I crushed exclusively on BRITISH singers...until I saw this.
😹😼😻
I am still really jealous of Bridget Fonda. ;)

My aunt keeps mistaking him for British for some reason. I mean we live in SoCal, he played dozens of times at her college.

Danny is a genius.
He's Brilliant!
I agree
I love how the guy about to execute him has him sign the album first! That's so wonderfully sick and twisted.
***** It's a lot it's a lot it's a lot it's a lot it's a lot it's a lot it's a lot LIKE LIFE.
But that's Depeche Mode...
The guy who is executing him is also from Danny's band Oingo Boingo!
@@meowman45 John Avila. And the other guy is Johnny Vatos. They still perform as Oingo Boingo with most of the the other members.
They’re like the Nazis who would have secret stashes of banned “degenerate music” written by the Jews they killed.
Danny is so talented!! He needs more credit!
What a FUN song. I can't get over the coolness of his voice.
I literally just met Danny Elfman. He asked to tie my shoes in St. Louis at the City Museum
You better have tied your shoes!
You did not! 😱
REALLY WOW!!!!
oh nice
Straight up OG. That’s so cool
I love how this man along with John Williams formed my childhood soundtrack and also simultaneously is a rock n roller like I am as an adult, it’s amazing
I had a dream that I met him this young. :(
I can't believe the 80s were so long ago. They felt like they would go on forever.
If you were around during or after the 80s, this man’s music was an inexorable part of your life.
I can’t believe I just found out Danny Elfman was the singer of Oingo Boingo! Awesomeness. He’s smart and comedic in his videos. He’s fucking amazing. Hot back in the day.

that eyeliner tho on point sis
Boingo cleanses my fragmented soul at 2am. This quarentine has been so hard But rewatching these vids bring such joy to me.
playing this past midnight currently, never got into Boingo until this month and love this video as well !
(oh I'm 3yrs late but) He released an album during the plague and it has helped my soul as much as the Boingo catalogue. I hope you've checked it out (it is heavier, like industrial but also with strings and choir)
Is no one talking about danny Elfman cartwheel in the video
The part of this video when his record cover comes to life and the eyes get all crazy is so rad.
Feeling Gratitude to have found this!
+Opus Quark #ohyeah
Hints of Danny's obsession with hands in this video.
Love Danny so much, such a great singer/composer and just overall really cool. I hope to meet him in person some day!! 💕
Now this is gratitude
i'm so happy that i finally got my so-lo vinyl
Danny has the most fascinating eyes I've ever seen, they're hypnotic almost :)
i have a crush about 80s danny elfman
Lyrics:
Life's been so good to me
Has it been good to you?
Has it been everything
That you expected it to be?
Was it as good for you
As it was good for me?
And was it everything
That it was all set up to be?
(Now, is that gratitude?)
Now, is that gratitude?
Or is it really love
Some kind of reality
That fits just like a glove
Now, is that gratitude
For everything I've done
Or is it something else
That's got me on the run?
In the middle of a big tornado
On the tip of everyone's tongue
In the belly of a giant whale
All the girls just wanna have fun
In the look of a frightened neighbor
In a big, warm bed at night
In a broken elevator
In the teeth of a dog that bites
In the middle of a revolution
In the look of a child's face
In the silence of the dinner table
In the stillness of disgrace
But when I think of you
And what you've done to me
You took away my hope
You took away my fantasy
I once had lots of pride
The world was in my hands
I lived way at the top
Of castles made of sand
Ooh...
I dream of you sometimes
In the middle of a big tornado
On the tip of everyone's tongue
In the belly of a giant whale
All the girls just wanna have fun
In the look of a frightened neighbor
In a big, warm bed at night
In a broken elevator
In the teeth of a dog that bites
In the middle of a revolution
In the look of a child's face
In the silence of the dinner table
In the stillness of disgrace
Now, is that gratitude?
Now, is that gratitude?
Now, is that gratitude?
Now, is that gratitude?
I played this song on my 80s boombox so many times that it's not even funny thanks Danny Elfman for a song that speaks to me so much.
Awww...they edited out the "I used to eat people like you for breakfast!! " part. Damn!
opetke lol
That was on the Oingo Boingo version, this one was done for Danny's solo album... They're slightly different and I appreciate them both 😊
Couldn't place how he looked to me, who he reminded me of. He's like a talented Carrot Top.
This video epitomizes the 80s.
i'm shocked that this song doesn't have millions of hits on here..... this is awesome. very underrated.
I remember my math theacher putting on this song on the last few minutes of class
and everyone else tougth it was weird and bad while i was sitting at my desk thinking "what is that melody!?"
I also absolutly loved the video clip of this
(Btw this was like 2 yrs ago)
He was also amazing in Oingo Boingo
yep, this song/album is pretty much a Oingo Boingo track. from wikipedia: "Oingo Boingo guitarist Steve Bartek stated that So-Lo was "mostly a band record", but that MCA "wasn't particularly interested" in Oingo Boingo and so had signed Elfman as a solo artist.

The instrumental sounds like one of those retro SNES or Sega Genesis games, awesome song.
Forget Jack Nicholson. Danny should have played The Joker in Tim Burton's Batman film. This song is fantastic by the way.
Maff Skywatch I agree! on both counts
I think he should be the joker in a musical version of batman
Maff Skywatch or carnage
Maff Skywatch he voiced jack skelington so it's still close to joker
Watch Gotham. The kid playing The Joker looks just like him.
Danny Elfman is a genius of symbolism!
This is one of my favorite songs by Danny and the music video is just so twisted and so Danny! The part with the devil watching them play poker while there walls are jumping is just brilliant.

Probably one of the best Vocalist/Musicians form the 80s. Even though he technically started in the later 70s

2:26 Danny's brother, Richard Elfman.
His co-conspirator in The Mystics Knights of The Oingo Boingo.
I laughed when Danny was looking at Richards cards, lol!
And also, I'm wondering who the little boy was. Was trying to see if it could be Bodhi.
They are so much alike
He do be living up to his name sake he quite dose look like an elf
He looks like a leprechaun to me.🎩🍀
This guy is a beast. Seems like almost every movie I watch has his name in the music credits.

such a underrated performer.. yes even now
i cant stop singing

I met Danny Elfman and Oingo Bingo back in 1994 at their concert. It was so awesome. He is an incredible Artist/musician/winter.
Criminally underrated track. Brilliant song.
Danny Elfman is the craziest singer and more sympathetic to know
I came from Cleveland and was a Michael Stanley fan Then I moved to Southern California I heard Oingo Boingo I never looked back They are truly unique
god this man can sing

He is as much of a delight to watch as he is to listen to ☺️☺️
great singing
2:48 it looks like the mural is about to vaporize Steve
This man is a mf genius
that song is one of the best danny has ever written.
Danny Elfman was hella hot back in the 80's! He is especially yummy in this video! Oh...and the man's got some talent...he is definitely gifted!
This is the first time ive heard this song and i cant stop
I know I'll be in hell when I see Danny Elfman and John Malcovich ordering drinks at the table across from mine, and I'll be okay with that knowledge.
Count me in! I adore them both!
But it will be so much fun........

One of the GREATEST musicians AND composers of modern time!
Oh man...this was such a great time! My teenage years shaped by 80's music..and this band was my absolute favorite. Seen them many times!! Awesome, and simpler times!
