Everybody and their dog around he knows how far into Devo I am. I tried to invent this but they did it first. We're through bein' cool. I can't even understand the words of this song but the gist of it is eliminate the ninnys and the twits. Way rad.
Did he really say "I saw Jesus swimming in my stew" ??? That's pretty ballsy for live TV in 1981! I think Jesus should make a come back too. And give us praise for how devo-lved we've become.
I mean really! Talk about taking the piss out of Jesus Freaks. Out of all the devastatingly funny lines uttered by Jerry, that is truly the most wicked.
Fridays and DEVO were a better match than Filet Mignon and Lobster! I'd love to see Disney TV (the current owner of the old Fridays episodes, I believe) release DVDs of each season. It put SNL to shame!
"I Saw Jesus/Through Being Cool" "I Saw Jesus Through Being Cool" Anyone else notice that? Any time I hear "Through Being Cool" I can't take it completely literally.
Here we have Devo's crowning media achievement: the space-age spiritual, I Saw Jesus into Thru Being Cool, a Mcluhanesque rejection of all we idolize(d). What an act!! Don't make them like this anymore...

This is my favorite Devo song :)
I also laughed at that "I Saw Jesus" part :D
HAPPY NEW YEAR ! 2018 great DEVO FANS !
Happy New year 2020 !

Jerry is too much! I shudder to think what type of world we would live in without G.V. Casale.
What people did not realize about devo is,
that they were extremely talented!!
This is their live performance? Wow... good stuff

"I Saw Jesus/Through Being Cool"
"I Saw Jesus Through Being Cool"
Anyone else notice that? Any time I hear "Through Being Cool" I can't take it completely literally.

@hintysen
That's called vocoding, it's different to auto-tuning
@sharikmarius I could be wrong, but to me it sounds like the only thing that was preprogrammed is the bass line.
Pacific Northwest DEVO-T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kewl
Appears that most of the song was preprogrammed (because I KNOW Bob 2 isn't playing all of those keyboard parts).
Jerry Casale s Moog Bass is !
Christopher Hitchens must love Devo with their irreverent Jesus stuff. Post more if you have it. Devo was ahead of their time.

0:16 kraftwerk "radio activity" est baisé profond !!
Barbie Chêtif Devo started the same time as Kraftwerk...early 70's
yes I know, pre-kraftwerk was called "organisation" by the way.
+wes holley thank you! DEVO was right there with, not influenced by
Dig the Rod Blagojevich plastic hair!!
