oh, oh, oh, oh!
you gotta treat a woman rough
you gotta treat a woman tough
be a caveman (oh, oh, oh)
and keep her in line

oh, oh, oh, oh!
you gotta pull her by the hair
hold her tighter than a grizzly bear
be a caveman (oh, oh, oh)
and keep her in line

you gotta show a woman who wears the pants
if you want her to stick by you
you can have her eating right out of your hand
heres what ya gotta do..

show a woman that you're a man
you gotta show her where you stand
be a caveman (oh, oh, oh)
and keep her in line

oh, oh, oh, oh!

be a caveman!

I'm also including a YouTube link with a funny video to go along with the song.  Enjoy!

Hank williams "Dear John" is pretty funny all together but my favorite part is:
"Now my gal's short and stubby, She's strong as she can be, But if that little old gal of mine, Ever get's a-hold of me, That's all she wrote, Dear John, I've sent your saddle home."

Whats the funniest lyrics you've heard?

My choice is two howlin' wolf songs.

1) I was built for comfort, i wasn't built for speed.(admit it it's hilarious)

2) I am 300 pounds of joy.

I was gonna guess this was from Family Guy.  I also agree with Ray that it's very cool that this is happening, but it doesn't seem to be because anyone thinks it's cool.  It's all part of the joke from the TV show.

And for the record, Family guy is absolutely hilarious.  Definitely not appropriate for young children.

I don't know if you are aware of why this has happened? It's a reaction against a TV show called 'The X Factor' [same bullshit as American Idol] assuming they will have the [much desired] Christmas number one spot in the 'Top 40 Chart'. Someone set up a Facebook page last year and got Rage Against The Machine's 'Killing In The Name Of' to number one instead.

I think Surfin' Bird was chosen because of the skit on an episode of Family Guy. I've never seen the show personally [as I think cartoons are for kids and that it's just a mass media attempt to dumb us down]. Ultimately, yes, it's cool that people are rallying against the assumption that some bullshit pop wannabe is guaranteed a number one song because of their success on a TV show. I do think it's a shame that people aren't buying the song because they think it's cool.

You probably knew all of this anyway - So forgive my rambling...

When every other song on the list is forgotten Surfin' Bird will still be blasting away somewhere. It's timeless!

Boppa OOUU MAU MAU Boppa OOUU MAU MA MAU!!   Awesome.  I hope this ain't a joke.

My god! Never EVER thought I'd see Rhianna's name next to the Thrashmen! Surfin' bird is my all time fav tune!

Woah!

The strange and mysterious musical visionary passes away *captain beefheart*

http://pitchfork.com/news/41062-rip-captain-beefheart/

the best white blues singer just passed away....i do not know what you guys think about him but when i first listened "diddy wah diddy" my brain just blown away!

Great work! What keyboard do you use?

And my two penneth..

The Real Kids first album

V2 - Vibrators

I'll take the first 2 Saints albums as well

X-Ray Spex album

and not a punk (or any kind of rock -except kraut) La Dusseldorf  - a fine album!

I bought "Station of the Crass" in LP vinyl in the beginning of 1980, and I used to listen to it near the end of 2010. It's my favorite punk album, a little bit sharp maybe ....

That's exactly what we do, only with four songs. Straight in your face, motherfucker. We once tried opening with a slower song to give people time to come in, and they didn't, so full force now.

And I'd also never open with a cover. This looks like you ain't got the guts to show your own material. Fuck it - you're on stage, so your stuff is good enough to open the show.

Besides, we do no covers at all, we just steal and "quote" as much as we can - the fun is even bigger when in the middle of your own song you start singing some well-known tune or play some notorious riff, and you see people's faces going: "Hey, I know that! Well, that's barefaced!"

I'd play 3 (short) fast songs in a row, no talking in between, no break longer than it takes to count to 4, and after the third take a break and greet the audience. I'd NEVER start with an instrumental. Did that and it didn't work. Unless you play in a Surf band, of course.
Songs? Maybe something like a Sonics medley. That should get everyone in the right mood.

I really like to end our shows with a couple of covers, usually Gloria and Little Latin Lupe Lu. Maybe starting it with a cover isn't such a good idea but I admit that I have thought about opening a show with Rumble.

Ha! We open with a fucked up version of Pipeline and it's always all downhill after that!! Classic!!

my old band used to open with Pipeline.. great song to start with - but all downhill after that!!

We normally open up with a little bit of "Creeping Death", but it quickly turns into a slide blues/punk song.

That's very cool to hear that. I make diddley bows, cigar box guitars, and cigar box ukulele's, too (among other things).

The possibilities are almost endless. If you search online, you can find plenty of sites that show off people that make some very cool/functional music gadgets out of nothing but junk and pride themselves on not actually buying anything to put it together. It's artistic, functional, practical, and cool, so lube up those handy craft skills and get to work!

Thanks alot everyone.  This is for a present so I may or may not order a kit.  I'll be back with my decision.

 

I've made a couple of diddley bows but that's about it.  I had a dream about a thing that's a cross between a diddley bow and a hurdy gurdy (diddley gurdy?  hurdy bow?) but my fabrication skills have gotten rusty and were never that sharp in the first place.  I believe I'll make one out of Legos.

Johnny Thunders, Iggy Pop, Stiv Bators, Johnny Rotten, Sid Vicious, Richard Hell, Handsome Dick Manitoba, all of the Ramones.

First time writing on this forum and I must say it's interesting how you can see so much snobbery here. Some people have already decided it's going to suck because Little Steven, apparently a sell out who doesn't know what Garage Rock is, is involved. Personally, I love Garage Rock, I play in a Garage Rock band and my favourite artist is Springsteen. I can imagine pieces of brain scattered all over some keyboards and computer screens as some of you read this.

I think the movie has potential but I won't judge it before I actually see it.


P.S. - Springsteen's song "Fire" was not written for Robert Gordon. It was written for Elvis but then Elvis died and Bruce ended up giving it to Robert Gordon.

Check out the cutie pie who's going to play the lead female role...

UPDATE: Panasonic is in fact ceasing production of the SL-1200MK6 model specifically, while other Technics turntable models will live on. Phew! Sincere apologies for the misunderstanding.
