I had a college show too. Husker Du, Meat Puppets, the Cure, Violent Femmes, The Smiths, REM were regular rotation then they'd let the DJ put in anything they wanted. I was a Clash, Bad Brains, The Police (B-sides deep tracks no hits ;), Fishbone, 24-7 Spyz, etc. Plus some industrial Skinny Puppy, Ministry mixed in for good measure.
LOVED being a college radio DJ. All of the above bands, plus Shriekback, the Damned, the Cramps, the Chameleons, Siouxsie & the Banshees, Dead Milkmen... I'm getting all nostalgic now.

Mid 80's.... nothing but hair metal around. Then there's Husker Du. I can't believe this album came out in 1985. Way ahead of it's time. They were even before The Pixies. Wow.
Saw them at a small club called The Cubby Bear in Chicago 1985 right across from Wrigley Field loved it man and then some dumbass didn't like my hair I flipped them off he followed me to the 7-Eleven around my damn ass over with his car no problem good thing I was half drunk no injuries LOL
Famously the reason kim deal joined the band was answering a classified about a band asking for a female bassist who liked Husker Du and Peter Paul and Mary, Deal didn't know how to play bass but she fit every other criteria, so thats how that happened!
I love this song because it's so critical of the listener. so often I've found myself applying the lyrics to others but each time I do, I later feel I'm missing the point. this song has to be about the listener, because you're the only one who can really see that your 'head is in the clouds'.
I was a dirty 25 yr old punk kid traveling by train from Portland to NY and was sitting outside the Chicago train station. A man that looked as if he had lived three lives of travel and partying approached me and struck up conversation about the patches of various bands I had sewn on my sweatshirt. I braced myself for yet another scam or person begging for money. But they introduced themselves and it was Grant. I was so ashamed for not being super familiar with him or his band because I was aware of their significance. He didn't really talk about Husker Du, but he was really sweet, and was just asking me about being a young punk (this was maybe around 2009) and what my life at shows in northern CA and Portland were like. When I'd ask about the band he'd give a few details but then steer the conversation elsewhere, with a ton of punk info. I guess I don't really have a point, I just wanted to share, that at that moment in time Grant made an impression on me. And I left feeling really stoked on life and proud of the life that I was living despite not always feeling that way.
@@MikeSmith-sj5bf Best song is Divide and Conquer it’s unreal how they predicted the internet and whole song is relevant today. I grew up with Zen Arcade playing I love the whole album to the day. Real world, Whatever, Diane, Never taking to you again some more
I've watched Husker Du live and they had the most intense set I've ever witnessed. It go f'n loud. Bob Mould would play straight into his amp. Those guys did not tone down the intensity at all until Bob Mould announced that the drummer (Grant Hart) had herpes and they had to leave. It was early, too, when they were still sort of obscure. Less than 100 people. I'll never forget that show.
@@fiberones2822 Then I guess you're gay too cause you're here listening to them with us. I never understand why piece of shit people like you want to be all over videos and stuff that you hate if you hate it then why are you here why click on videos of stuff that you hate? 🤔
That particular style of moustache was a somewhat common signifier of homosexuality around that time. Funnily enough, Norton was the only heterosexual guy in the band! (Mould is gay, and Hart is bisexual.)
I actually saw this on VH1 Classic in the middle of the night when I was 13. It’s the little seemingly insignificant moments like that that change your life for the better
The RRHoF hates mid-west bands. It doesn't matter how good their music was/is or the effect they had on music, the movers and shakers of the music industry loathe bands or musicians blue collar, working class mid-west bands. I would venture to say that without Husker Du, there would not have been a Foo Fighters. (And I really respect and like the Foo Fighters.)

Great song ! came out the year of my birth and just discovered it recently. It really reminds me of early Green Day stuff (gilman street days, 90-93) and I realise that GD would be nothing without Husker Du being their major influence.
Good ole days. Really miss the freedom, fun and debauchery. Bands today have no grit to them. everything is promotional shine. Really blows. Wish I had a time machine.
@@tricko8000 tarantula, mystic inane, matrix, big hog, warthog, protocol, adderall, hologram, kaleidoscope, rolex, nosferatu, electric chair, armor, jackal, warm bodies, all american punk bands that have released things in the past two years, I could go on if you want. None of these bands could ever be as influential as husker du because punk music isn't new anymore. But to say that the "scene is dead" or whatever washed up folks say is a farce.
favorite song on my favorite husker record. Full disclosure: i may be biased, since I got into the band after Sugar (because Sugar existed when I was 14), and this is the song/record from which I think the sugar sound came. But whatever ... husker is a top 10 band.
This video got played at the end of a 120 Minutes episode when I was about 15. It was my introduction to Hüsker Dü and I was immediately hooked. I had taped that particular episode and watched this video over and over. Until I picked up Flip Your Wig I thought the MTM theme cover was just part of the song.
I graduated from hardcore punk to Husker Du and IRS era REM gradually in the mid 1980s until everything else sounded like greasy kid stuff. But I haven't listened to this in almost twenty years and it still sounds relevant and fresh - the video is timeless, yet ten years ahead of it's own time. And I only just found out what the bands name means! Thank God for the InterNets...
I moved to another country kinda forced by my gf because she got pregnant by accident and she wanted some support from her family(she's from another country). I quit my job, which was netting me some good money and for the very first time I was saving some, left many friends behind and a city I adored. Now I'm on a shitty town 3000 km away from the people and places I know speaking a whole different language I'm struggling to learn, having a shitload of marital problems which makes me ask myself if its worth it to go on, not getting any job after wallpapering the whole city with CV's, quite broke after the last month of rent, with no friends nor family around to talk, and with absolutely nothing to do. It's being really hard to get some motivation to get out of bed these days, even for getting something to eat, since I'm struggling to adapt myself to this new reality. I'm feeling lost and hopeless... But I got these guys, and that makes no sense at all, but it helps.
One of my all time fave bands. I bought ''Warehouse:Songs and Stories'' as soon as it came out in 1987. Already had their other albums,all on vinyl. I was 25. Had the lp sticker on a wall for several years. Great band and great times. Still play their lps over and over. Criminal that they didn't make it really big,same with The Replacements. Thanks for the posting.
I have been a fan of Husker Du since the 80's, & just like they sang when this song was first released, the world "STILL" doesn't make any sense at all.
i'll have to check that out. thanks for the info! i've been listening to them religiously for about a year now. its too bad they're not around anymore.
Hey, while everybody else thought of the original and the Joan Jett remake, I thought of this. I'm kind of disappointed that none of the networks played this version.
Another big reason for them doing that song is that the setting for the "Mary Tyler Moore Show" is Minneapolis, and this is where Husker Du are from. So, it's a nod of sorts to their own city.
The feels. So many great shots of old Minneapolis.

Seeing them play this in early 1986 at First Ave was so satisfying!
Husker du is one of my alltime favs!
I've listened to them a million times but they're still one of the most amazing bands ever.
How to write a Foo Fighters song
1. Listen to Husker Du for 20 hours
2. Some melody will appear in your brain
3. Write song
on some unknown level that is comedic genius

Me also : (
Hey, while everybody else thought of the original and the Joan Jett remake, I thought of this. I'm kind of disappointed that none of the networks played this version.
Another big reason for them doing that song is that the setting for the "Mary Tyler Moore Show" is Minneapolis, and this is where Husker Du are from. So, it's a nod of sorts to their own city.
We'll all miss Grant Hart. Thanks to SST Records we got to live their music.
Hell yeah! Flip Your Wig was the first Husker Du album I ever bought. Damn near wore it out the CD on the first day
Best band since creation of earth.
Set my heart on fire! One of the greatest Punk Bands ever ♥♥
