At first listen you'll hate it, but after 30+ listens and after having come to understand exactly what Ween is about, you suddenly realize how awesome this song is.
this is the song you listen to and then say i hate ween, then you listen to their more current stuff and you say i like ween, then you come back to this and say i love ween.
I put this song on when my older sister was at my place, she was born in the 80s and was around 10 when this song came out. She actually remembered this song and likes it to this day. The Boognish has blessed us on that day.
When it came out in the 90's I hated it to be honest. I guess because the range of good music we had back then seemed limitless and we were spoiled for choice. In comparison to today's music, this song is the best song on earth and I actually can appreciate it now.
what genre would you like to discuss? I like a wide range of music and can appreciate almost anything (except all this cheesy stuff that seems to come out these days). and I DJ too so I have an extensive library.
Adrián Gabriel De la Rosa Galán They are the real deal. Creative , cool freaky. Not like now. Ween doesn't have to catch your attention by looking evil, and what not. It's fun. My little 4 year old loves the bassist. She loves Ween. It made me proud.
When KFMA started here in Tucson many years ago, they introduced themselves to the public by playing this song over and over again for 48 hrs. straight. I was doing some volunteer work for a local non-profit group at the time, and I left the radio on that station for my entire shift. Ahhh, fond memories!
This song scared me terribly until years later when I learned about Ween's sense of humor... I thought 'what kind of mind would come up with such a song?' My revelation came hearing 'Big Jim'.
That's what I keep thinking of lol. Seems like there were some funny lines about that guy looking like Ashton Kutcher. When I saw it on Beavis and Butthead I started thinking, wait a minute, that's that song they used to play on the alternative rock station.... I legitimately like the song.
I remember being about 13 when this came out, I was thinking this is what older indie artsy young people were like. Lol goofy, but a throw back none the less. Love it.
Because record company executives are fucking idiots, that's why. Ween's record label decided that with all the really good songs they had, this one should be their debut release. They actually do this with most bands though. They pick the one song that sounds least like the band and go with that one. I have no idea why, that's just their M.O.
+UNIVERSAL1S This is one of the few Ween songs to have kinda somewhat gotten some mainstream exposure back when it came out in the early '90s. That probably has something to do with it.
+jdessell Record execs are idiots? Nice "middle brow rebuttal". Like Ocean Man, or Where'd The Cheese Go? That just so happen to be two of their other most well known songs in pop culture, made into videos, that both guys signed off on. Does that mean the Dean and Gene are idiots by your reasoning? Or maybe they were/are a great live band that's hard to get across via albums. Daisies is a fucking hilarious video that stood out like a delightfully whacky sore thumb in the 90's and gave Ween a career from the Beavis and Butthead episode that covered it - and this by Dean's admission no less. So, apparently it worked and execs aren't as stupid as you need them to be. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
i completely agree, i heard this song in my car and when i turned on the radio it was at the "push the little daisies and make em come up" part and i was laughing my ass off lol
This band is the absolute BEST in the world!!!! Anyone that doesn't know who Ween is must be missing a very large piece of the whole great music pie. They ROCK whether it's live or on an album.
Push th Little Daises is kind of a love song. Pushing daises, meaning to die, in this case refers to a relationship and how lies undermine the strength of that relationship." When you lie, Kiss your baby bye bye bye" By not lying, the relationship has a chance to grow. So the lyrics "Watch the little daisies grow, little daisies grow" refers to the relationship thriving by allowing each person to be who they genuinely are, warts and all.
+natalie bowman Where will you be when the adderall kicks in? For Natalie... explaining lyrics like she is the author of the song... Adderall, when you need to be At Your Alllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!
LOL, projecting a little much? Geez just trying to start a conversation and get people thinking. Any way It's just my opinion you troll. Never had an Adderal in my life.
This actually makes me miss the 90's. That was the ANYTHING GOES decade. I want to go back to the time that all we worried about was having a bad trip. Drugs were cheap and the X was good.
DroverChicago they are loaded. Tony hawk games, they wrote that ocean man song that was on the spongebob movie (also a meme), and a GREAT song called waving my dick in the wind.
It's funny how anyone who's only heard this song and no others by ween is trashing the band. This song is like that joke you tell that only your friends would get and it sound weird to every one else. Just a bad single to introduce ween to the world
gamblerpete not even close. I enjoy this song but its at the bottom of the list for me. Try the argus live in chicago or zoloft live in chicago. Live tear for eddie and just anything off stubbs album
They are still producing amazing music and shows. Late 80s-present. You do the math. Oh wait they probably were making money off their music before you were born and are still.
I check this board now and then just to smile and occasionally laugh. As the song plays I read all of the negative comments and for some reason, I feel really good and I just start laughing. Go Ween!
My little girl loves yall. She is 4. I'm 40. I remember buying a Ween cassette tape. Little girl calls your bass player That Funny Weird Silly Man. Yall have a new fan now.
I never linked this guy with Cartman til I read your comment, and its nearly an exact match lol. If you listen without watching the video I can imagine a music video of a south park episode.
Wow, that is one of my favorite bands and songs ever. I'm more into the Minutemen but bands like Ween are so awesome. I've seen them both once but didn't get to party with the Ween boys. But I did blog this video today at Chris King's 1st Amendment Civil Rights page, 20 March 2008. Peace. BTW IIRC Big Jilm follows this song. Sux to be 43 :)
The first time i ever heard this was on Beavis and Butthead... Some reason I had forgotten about it until yesterday when I was having a few drinks, IT ROCKS!!!
As our DJ in Chicago (Q101) says whenever she has to play this song, "This is the song that makes babies cry." Let them scream, because I love this song!
i think the better question is what drug will help get this song out of my head. I dont care for ween. sometimes ridiculous songs have better chance of being noticed due to there inherent uniqueness. oh to answer your question nothing currently but soon alcohol and Med Marj
CasualBanter well i mean personally i used to find him funny and then i matured and grew up and realised how his ‘comedy’ is just throwing offensive shit in a funny voice
Trash Can i like metallica (dont love em) but ween imo can outplay them any day. This is a bad song to compare with. Check out their live albums or shows on here. Live in chicago and the lockn set from 2016 are both amazing shows (lockn night 1 on the 25th, they also played the 26th but i like the setlist better the first day). Tear for eddie live, final alarm, lmlyp (live at stubbs version)
hackman55able Mr.skelepants here is right. Ween is great. This song is the first I ever heard of them, and for obvious reasons I didn't investigate any further. When I did, it turned out to be a very good decision.
+hackman55able I hope for your sake someday ween finds you my friend. You just gotta have fun with them. the glory follows soon after :) do do, do do do do do do do
i've stopped trying to point out to people the brilliance of this/every ween song. you either get ween or you don't. hopefully at some point in your life you'll be lucky enough to finally understand why they're so great (seeing them live is a good way to accomplish this). i feel sorry for people who don't get it, because they're missing out on one of the greatest creative statements of the 20th century. coming to love ween and everything they represent is an enlightening experience.
Southpark's Eric Cartman starts here. I remember watching this on MTV late one night in late 1992 - I totally got it. This clip is brilliant, as is the whole 'Pure Guava'. Ween RIP.
back in the day i listened to this when I was trippin on acid and the percussion sounded like it was in the foreground and the rest of the song was in the background (if that makes sense) and to this day the percussion still stands out in my mind. Weird...
At first listen you'll hate it, but after 30+ listens and after having come to understand exactly what Ween is about, you suddenly realize how awesome this song is.
this is the song you listen to and then say i hate ween, then you listen to their more current stuff and you say i like ween, then you come back to this and say i love ween.
Honestly, that's pretty accurate.
I remember when I seen this on Beavis and Butt Head, and how hard I laughed when Butt Head said: "These guys got no future" rofl
+DoubleVisionandco yep and beavis was wanking to it lmao
I was just thinking the same shit
Lol!!!
When they watched freedom of 76 they said "Ween kicks ass"
DoubleVisionandco
"You are a loser." XD
That's my favorite line.
My old roommate once told me this band is the best to listen to when you're high as shit. He wasn't wrong.
I put this song on when my older sister was at my place, she was born in the 80s and was around 10 when this song came out. She actually remembered this song and likes it to this day. The Boognish has blessed us on that day.
Maka Laster Well said my friend.
Literally one of my favourite songs ever and I love songs.
I would pay money to hear Beavis do a full vocal cover of this.
am i the only one who actually likes this song legitimately? seriously i like it a lot...
When it came out in the 90's I hated it to be honest. I guess because the range of good music we had back then seemed limitless and we were spoiled for choice. In comparison to today's music, this song is the best song on earth and I actually can appreciate it now.
Hat Duken haha! right on. theres still some good music out there now, just harder to find.
jake andersen True, mainly small independent stuff. All the radio music is just dance beats with a girl singing in extreme auto tune.
Hat Duken well while were here, any good recommendations? always looking for some good music, new or old
what genre would you like to discuss? I like a wide range of music and can appreciate almost anything (except all this cheesy stuff that seems to come out these days). and I DJ too so I have an extensive library.
I like that guy's Yamaha.
My goshhh... I think Im falling in love with Ween! This is one of the most bizarre, smart and interesting band!
Check out 12 Golden Country Greats if you haven't already. Never respected enough imo.
Adrián Gabriel De la Rosa Galán They are the real deal. Creative , cool freaky. Not like now. Ween doesn't have to catch your attention by looking evil, and what not. It's fun. My little 4 year old loves the bassist. She loves Ween. It made me proud.
get off the drugs
Son, you need Jesus in your life.
this is the worse part... im not into drugs!!
When KFMA started here in Tucson many years ago, they introduced themselves to the public by playing this song over and over again for 48 hrs. straight. I was doing some volunteer work for a local non-profit group at the time, and I left the radio on that station for my entire shift. Ahhh, fond memories!
They need to make an episode of Bob's Burgers where Gene becomes addicted to this song.
+John Smith You have my support! lol
O.M.G. it's the real life Eric Cartman! Where were Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Butters during this trippy song? (L.M.A.O.!)
I guess the spinal meningitis kid lived...
lol
thanks max! glad to see you're still doing ok after the 80s ended
Yup Deaner lives on.
this was released before that tho
This song came out before spinal meningitis, so maybe dancing around so much gave him spinal meningitis.
Ween makes beautiful music. Just keep in mind beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This was always one of my favorite songs by them.
This song scared me terribly until years later when I learned about Ween's sense of humor... I thought 'what kind of mind would come up with such a song?' My revelation came hearing 'Big Jim'.
I never knew that Eric Cartman collaborated with Ween.
Jay Dee Bee Ween was on the Chef Aid album, so I could see it lol
Jay Dee Bee I refuse to believe that Trey Parker didn't invent that voice while doing ween impressions.
+Jay Dee Bee Well said.
Hahaha
Jay Dee Bee that is the best comment I've ever seen
Someone needs to set this up to where it repeats for 10 hours.
I agree lol
Im gonna search for a twenty year loop
Start a hippy revolution! Yea let’s go!
I'm very impressed by how good the songs Ween produce are. Not only this, but the variety of music genres they have excelled in producing is baffling.
classic rock,,,,I loves IT!!I cant stop smiling and tapping my feet to this beauty.
God bless Gene and Dean xxx
he sounds like cartman!
gotta love how uncomfortable the bass player looks in every shot
When I get married, I'm singing this song! Complete with the dancing and facial expressions!!
I remember this used to come on the jukebox network! I still can't get enough
What the shit is the bass player doing? Some sort of acid trip induced crab walk?
+Spencer Cowan The bass player is what makes this video worth it for me.
+Spencer Cowan bass player?
oh deaner has a bass for some reason. wut. never noticed it.
deaner's the lead guitarist lmfao..
***** yeah but why not have him with a guitar in the video? he could have been on the "Drums" and i woulda said the same thing, it's strange
+Richie Whoa its strange.... its ween lol
+Spencer Cowan the origin of crabcore
I remember seeing this video on Beavis & Butthead when I was younger and laughing my ass off.
my friends and i laughed our asses off to this on beavis and butthead too.
That's what I keep thinking of lol. Seems like there were some funny lines about that guy looking like Ashton Kutcher. When I saw it on Beavis and Butthead I started thinking, wait a minute, that's that song they used to play on the alternative rock station.... I legitimately like the song.
I'm glad I found this. My dad used to listen too this when I was younger. I forgot how weird this video was
Wow.. I remember when this came out... none the less, it put a smile on my face
That guy's wearing a yamaha
Sounds like Eric Cartman.
I remember being about 13 when this came out, I was thinking this is what older indie artsy young people were like. Lol goofy, but a throw back none the less. Love it.
Every dollar spent on a Ween album makes the world a better place.
i loved this song on beavis and butthead
Why this song out of the many better Ween songs? Why is it the first hit on a youtube search for Ween?
Because record company executives are fucking idiots, that's why. Ween's record label decided that with all the really good songs they had, this one should be their debut release. They actually do this with most bands though. They pick the one song that sounds least like the band and go with that one. I have no idea why, that's just their M.O.

So, apparently it worked and execs aren't as stupid as you need them to be. No need to get your panties in a bunch.
This song is a guilty pleasure...
this song makes me happy...haven't heard it in a LOOOOOOONG time. thanks for loading it!
@0:40 "He IS a loser, and a panzy!" - Beavis
The fact that my name is Daisy makes me feel slightly uncomfortable 😂
O.O
Haha
i completely agree, i heard this song in my car and when i turned on the radio it was at the "push the little daisies and make em come up" part and i was laughing my ass off lol
This band is the absolute BEST in the world!!!! Anyone that doesn't know who Ween is must be missing a very large piece of the whole great music pie. They ROCK whether it's live or on an album.

LOL, projecting a little much? Geez just trying to start a conversation and get people thinking. Any way It's just my opinion you troll. Never had an Adderal in my life.
Denial is the first sign of addiction... that's a conversation starter right there.
Anyone else thinks he sounds like a mix of Kyle Broflovski, Eric Cartman and Butters?
in other words, the greatest song you've ever heard. ween is the best.
This video restores my faith in mankind.
RICKY GERVAIS SHOW
If it wasn't such a high pitch it would actually sound pretty good.
+JamieVlogs Any live version with full band is recommended
yeah I know, I was thinking the same thing.
Weens live songs ate always performed in Geeners normal voice so I'd reccomend that
Try the live versions
This actually makes me miss the 90's. That was the ANYTHING GOES decade. I want to go back to the time that all we worried about was having a bad trip. Drugs were cheap and the X was good.
This song is the only reason I get up in the mornings.
I didn't know, Ashton Kutcher was in this video!
Did anyone realize that the 'No!' At 1:37/1:38 was Prince?
Wikipedia told me
Yeah ween's favourite artist is prince
This sounds like something you would hear on a flash animation from the late 90s to mid 2000s
these guys are friggin incredible. i love them
The best
These guys got no future.
one of their songs made it onto dude where's my car movie, they probably loaded with cash
DroverChicago they are loaded. Tony hawk games, they wrote that ocean man song that was on the spongebob movie (also a meme), and a GREAT song called waving my dick in the wind.
The guy was quoting Beavis and Butthead from 1992.
Maureen Cerni I haven't watched that since I was a kid lol
yeah me too. Great music and funny stuff. Back when MTV played music.
Totally mental......I LOVE IT
Great song, great video, great artists
I remember when it was on Beavis and Butthead too! Butthead said,"Hey Beavis, this guy sounds like you." LOL
It's funny how anyone who's only heard this song and no others by ween is trashing the band. This song is like that joke you tell that only your friends would get and it sound weird to every one else. Just a bad single to introduce ween to the world
Theres ocean man
+lobotomy pop been a long time fan and your right they only know the one song when they have so many other better ones that are great
This is their only cool song
gamblerpete not even close. I enjoy this song but its at the bottom of the list for me. Try the argus live in chicago or zoloft live in chicago. Live tear for eddie and just anything off stubbs album
Huhuhu. These guys got no future.
They are still producing amazing music and shows. Late 80s-present. You do the math. Oh wait they probably were making money off their music before you were born and are still.
I saw gene on the 3rd of july. Packed show.
Steve Meyer 2018 and they are still selling out shows
I check this board now and then just to smile and occasionally laugh. As the song plays I read all of the negative comments and for some reason, I feel really good and I just start laughing. Go Ween!
My little girl loves yall. She is 4. I'm 40. I remember buying a Ween cassette tape. Little girl calls your bass player That Funny Weird Silly Man. Yall have a new fan now.
Beavis and Butthead brought me here.
+Max Headroom "Push th' little pansies"
+Max Headroom Beavus and Butthead had "Push th' Little Daisies!? :O
+Gray Ninja yeah and they said that ween has no future
Why does his voice remind me of Eric Cartman? Have I just been watching too much south park or does it actually sound like him? Opinions please.
Because he did this entire album high on carpet cleaner.
I never linked this guy with Cartman til I read your comment, and its nearly an exact match lol. If you listen without watching the video I can imagine a music video of a south park episode.
That's hilarious! it does sound like Cartman. Now I want to see a South Park parody of this video.
Rikki Tikki Tembo This came out before South Park was around.
They were featured in South Park they played homo rainbow in one of the earlier seasons
Matt Stone is a big Ween fan. I can see him and Trey getting ideas from these guys!
Wow, that is one of my favorite bands and songs ever. I'm more into the Minutemen but bands like Ween are so awesome. I've seen them both once but didn't get to party with the Ween boys.
But I did blog this video today at Chris King's 1st Amendment Civil Rights page, 20 March 2008.
Peace.
BTW IIRC Big Jilm follows this song. Sux to be 43 :)
That dudes wearing a yamaha
Punk's Not Dead he is jewish
What's wrong plebs, 2 deep 4 u?
this song gets better and better the more i listen to it
The first time i ever heard this was on Beavis and Butthead... Some reason I had forgotten about it until yesterday when I was having a few drinks, IT ROCKS!!!
Why the fuck do I like this song?
+Adrian Estrada
Because it's unique and was made outside of the suffocating musical constraints of normality.
Eric cartman
this song has been stuck in my head for 3 days
Two things I love about this video: The John and Yoko bed-in scene at :49...and the bottle of Maker's Mark Kentucky Bourbon on the shelf at :57
Still better than Justin Bieber!
No shit its Ween, they are gods
sons of a God, actually. Hail the Boognish!
Miles, son.
tfw the bassist was the og pink guy...
That's Dean Ween. Show some respect.
*lead guitarist
This might just be the greatest song of last century
I had the episode of Beavis and Butthead this song was on on a VHS used to watch it all the time...RIP awesome VHS
Pink Floyd at :55
0:56 for Pink Floyd
good catch. impresed. the piper smiles at you.
fuck yeh, I never would have noticed that if you didn't say something
Noticed that pic immediately --- Love Pink Floyd!!!
Anyone think its a connection to their bag of "mushrooms" in the vid?
As our DJ in Chicago (Q101) says whenever she has to play this song, "This is the song that makes babies cry." Let them scream, because I love this song!
This song is kinda appropriate today, since it's the first day of spring. Everybody have a good year and years to come.
295 people are Undertale fangirls.
The hell does undertale have to do with this?
+Reedster 0:08
Austin lol ok
Such a shitty song, but their later records are amazing.
Things WERE kick ass in the 90's. I gak, moonshoes, skip-its, and fraggle rock. Them was the days.
Why am I watching this shit?
because ween is the greatest band on the planet
what drugs are you on?
PonAdidas FUKING REKT M8 LOL
i think the better question is what drug will help get this song out of my head. I dont care for ween. sometimes ridiculous songs have better chance of being noticed due to there inherent uniqueness. oh to answer your question nothing currently but soon alcohol and Med Marj
PonAdidas This is Ween. You must have meant to put your shit comment on an Eminem video.
These guys remind me of filthy frank and pink guy
me too except ween is actually funny and talented
super friend but so is frank
fuck you. ween are actually good.
Flying To Learn Since when is Frank not good?
CasualBanter well i mean personally i used to find him funny and then i matured and grew up and realised how his ‘comedy’ is just throwing offensive shit in a funny voice
This is one of the most bizarre things I have ever seen. I love it. Bizarre is the best possible way. Fun stuff.
that is by far the funniest reaction i have ever witnessed to anything
Even if it's meant to be a joke, it still sucks.
That's what make it so good
Or I just think this music is shitty because it is
Look, if you happened to not like Brussel Sprouts, would you go to the vegetable stall and write "This sucks" on it?
Who would have even recorded this crap?
The fucking gods of music, that's who
+dinospumoniify Metallica didn't make this
+chance hull >Metallica
>Good
how's it feel to be 15?
Because they understand what sounds good unlike you? Producers who are aware of good music...?
Trash Can i like metallica (dont love em) but ween imo can outplay them any day. This is a bad song to compare with. Check out their live albums or shows on here. Live in chicago and the lockn set from 2016 are both amazing shows (lockn night 1 on the 25th, they also played the 26th but i like the setlist better the first day).
Tear for eddie live, final alarm, lmlyp (live at stubbs version)
Ween: the only band whose music videos tend to revolve around food.
kind of almost forgot about this for a while until I opened the door again this past a.m.
This is the worst song in the history of the universe.
so is your face
Says the guy who 'likes' pokemon shit, and has no music among his liked videos.
Zombie By The Cranberries is
This is Fucking dank son
boy this song sucked when it came out and now after 15 years it sounds even worse. Total garbage.
hackman55able Mr.skelepants here is right. Ween is great. This song is the first I ever heard of them, and for obvious reasons I didn't investigate any further. When I did, it turned out to be a very good decision.
Sorry you think this is great? Good for you. Personally I think this is junk.
+hackman55able I hope for your sake someday ween finds you my friend. You just gotta have fun with them. the glory follows soon after :) do do, do do do do do do do
+hackman55able That's like your opinion man.
+hackman55able 15 years ago? Try 23. Feel old yet? :)
i've stopped trying to point out to people the brilliance of this/every ween song. you either get ween or you don't. hopefully at some point in your life you'll be lucky enough to finally understand why they're so great (seeing them live is a good way to accomplish this). i feel sorry for people who don't get it, because they're missing out on one of the greatest creative statements of the 20th century. coming to love ween and everything they represent is an enlightening experience.
Awesome band! Straight outta New Hope, Pennsylvania! The chorus part, he sounds like Cartmen from South Park, I love it!
I don’t want this song to end
Hell, I even loved it before I knew what Ween was about.
"hey beavis this guy sounds like you" "shut up fartknocker!"
Southpark's Eric Cartman starts here. I remember watching this on MTV late one night in late 1992 - I totally got it. This clip is brilliant, as is the whole 'Pure Guava'. Ween RIP.
