TBT SERIES - Oingo Boingo Nasty Habits Reaction, Rewind and Trip!
I don't have words for how much I love Oingo Boingo. You can definitely hear the Simpsons theme, Edward Scissorhands, Nightmare Before Christmas and Batman Returns in this song.
I was thinking the same. Plus there where a couple moments that I felt got transitioned over to the Pee Wee's Big Adventure soundtrack.
Also Pee Wee's Big Adventure.
Jesus Christ… you mentioned exactly what I was thinking 😂🍻🍻🍻💯💯
Pee Wee’s Big Adventure and Beetlejuice as well.
Omg you’re the first person I’ve ever seen react to Oingo Boingo! Their first 3 albums for sure were amazing! So innovative... this band is so massively underrated! And of course Danny Elfman is a genius. You can so clearly see the through line between the band and what he would later do as a score composer. The sound of this band is so unique to them! Their influence is seen everywhere in music today and a lot of people don’t even know about them. You just made my day! 😁👍
Yea, when I did this video I spent another 30 minutes listening to the whole "Only a Lad" album on YT - Such a dynamic project for the time and most of all I loved every bit of it! Awwwwright!
@@KeyOfGeebz Reptiles & Samurai (from the next album, Nothing to Fear) is the single greatest song of the entire 1980s.
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the account password. I would love any help you can give me
@Dominik Shepherd Instablaster =)
@Gerald Vincent thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Their debut album is all killer no filler
So many interesting arrangements and lyrics
His vocal theatrics and percussive/rhythmic 'anomalies' (and fascinatingly uncommon subject matter) were like sonic crack for our pre-adolescent early-80s mormon ears. I'm still amazed that our parents "didn't seem to notice" that it was dirty, maybe because it sounded upbeat and peppy? (My mom only realised that "Lola" was about a transvestite a few years ago, and I felt terrible to have shattered her appreciation... She was SINGING ALONG and still didn't know somehow?)
But he'd done Tales from the Crypt and the Simpsons (which we watched compulsively), and we had Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, which is just STELLAR in its brilliance.
Then came Batman, and our jaws dropped to the floor. (That and Bernard Herrmann's Vertigo are tied for my number one film score.) He was the reason I wanted to learn orchestration and study composition--I wanted to be Danny Elfman when i grew up, writing cinematic scores and dark-pop-novelty tunes.
I think I might STILL want to be Danny Elfman when i grow up :)
This was a brilliant choice for a reaction--I'm subscribing out of simple appreciation for your taste :) This was awesome.
I saw Boingo so many times! I'm 51 and still listen to them to this day. SO much going on all at once during their concerts. Horns, various percussion AMAZING
I saw OB live at least 5 times. Always a great time!
@@tdreff same here, SD local. SDSU Open Air Amphitheater
I love this! Been an Oingo Boingo fan since the early 80s - and a fan of Danny's work & creativity since the end of OB! - - - But, ...
Talking Oingo Boingo & Danny Elfman without mention of Steve Bartek misses half the story!
As a young college student, Bartek played flute with the band Strawberry Alarm Clock, before joining brothers Richard & Danny Elfman in 1975 as a member of "The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo" - a street theater troupe. In 1979, Richard Elfman left The Mystic Knights, and Danny took over - shortening the name to simply "Oingo Boingo" and focusing on music rather than the musical theater of the prior incarnation. Throughout this, Bartek had been integral in the musical aspects, and as Oingo Boingo reformed itself, he was responsible for much of the arrangement of Danny's songs, along with playing lead guitar. Outside Oingo Boingo, Steve and Danny have continued to work together in film, with Steve being arranger for many (if not most) of Danny's compositions.
I cannot see Danny Elfman’s name and not immediately think of an old MST3K bit. “🎵Danny Elfman, Danny Elfman, sounds a lot like Danny Elfman🎵”
KROQ really gave so many bands their first real taste to the airwaves. I remember when this came out and they did a concert at Magic Mountain. Did a little slam session on the top of the amphitheater.. I miss the 80’s
My very first concert was Oingo Boingo at Magic Mountain! Blew my young mind!
@@jimmyhankins7487 It may have been my first too! It was either that or Berlin at Magic Mountain!😭
91X was the San Diego version or KROQ! I would change the radio station right after I passed through San Juan Capistrano when driving north!
I was at Magic Mountain for that concert. I waited in line for the first show, and was in the front row for the second show. Such amazing performances. I remember them opening with their own version of "Rawhide".
Yesss! Magic Mountain was awesome! I remember part or all the band going up and down the aisles. Saw them near every New Year's Eve of the 80s except for the one's I went to the Rose Parade.
4:40ish...yes, timing...and talent. If you listen to this album in headphones it will blow you away. As a brass player, I'm amazed at the triple tonguing licks, etc. And counterpoint; massive counterpoint! Love it.
I love listening to it in the car, you can hear quad channels
ELFMAN is 1 of the greatest singers in rock history.
Oingo Boingo!!!! They practically defined my high school years. There were many other bands that I was into, but Oingo Boingo was the overall soundtrack for high school.
WTH!!!! Someone reacts to Oingo Boingo!! Living in the LA area, I grew up on this band in the 80s... One of my most favorite all time bands.
Not only Danny but their rhythm section of John Avila & John Hernandez is amazing. Steve Bartek is also a great guitar player and composer. As a trumpet player i love bands with horn sections and Dale Turner was my guy!
I once saw Oingo Boingo at the Universal Studios and RHCP opened for them, and were booed off stage and Danny came out with shaving cream on his face and reassured all of us to just listen to them. And I ended up being a RHCP fan for life. Thak you Danny Elfman!
Love Danny Elfman. So eclectic and eccentric, and created some of the most iconic film scores of all time!
NICE!!! Love Oingo Boingo. And Nasty Habits is such a great song. They have an amazing catalogue of music
Your definitely hearing “The Simpsons” and Nightmare before Christmas “ for sure.
And Pee Wee's Big Adventure
Beetlejuice was the most present for me :P
Beyond tv and film, this song also inspired a little piece of heaven by avenged sevenfold. The brass sections for both songs were even arranged by the same person.
Danny Elfman's latest single "Sorry" is so good! It's a heavy song that just keeps building tension. I love it.
I will give it a go...ty.
He's got a few now. Happy is just creepy. And Love in the TIme of Covid is interesting. Different
I think "Happy" might be my favourite (so far) from his new album, but Sorry was pretty badass too :)
@@markgarber3465 And now "Kick Me"
@@Highland804 I just saw that video the other day. It’s pretty cool. I think the old timers have been enjoying quarantine, they had to stop touring and find something to do. Lots of great new music coming out. these days.
Stoked to see you doing Oingo Boingo. Boingo is one of my top three favorite bands, (Rush and Tool being the other two.) Fun note, my favorite Boingo song, "Long Breakdown" has a guitar solo outro, that uses harmonics in a similar fashion to Adam's work on some of the tunes on Lateralus.
Try listening to the demo called Did It There, or the demo called Vultures. Prog boingo!
I got to see Oingo Boingo Live on their farewell tour... so much energy, and sheer brilliance.
I've always felt like this was the most quintessentially Danny elfman song in the oingo boingo catalog
It's sort of like his moonlight sonata lol
Danny Elfman is amazing, he is an absolute legend . My favorite Oingo Boingo song has to be Insanity, sooo good.
I too was a surfer 🏄♂️back in high school (Poway High class of 1985, San Diego County). Boingo was real popular amongst the surfer crowd and me and my buddies we lucky enough to see them in concert for free at the Del Mar fair right next to the beach. They played everything they had up though the Good for Your Soul album along with a couple of new song to boot. Almost 3 hours worth. Incredible experience 🎶👏👏👍😁.
@dean I was probably there as well, UCHS class of 86
80's Geebz reactions?!?! Let's gooooo! I'm an old metal head, but still an 80's fan as well. Great choice!!
I've still got my vinyl copy, well-worn from thousands of plays. Every song on this album is great. They were first called the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo. I saw them a dozen times and their annual Halloween shows were awesome. (Thanks for the reminder, JB. Edited)
Mystic Knights*
i LOVE Oingo Boingo ... so many classic 80's movies featured them ...
as for influences, what i hear is Zappa, Barnes & Barnes, and others that were frequently featured on Dr. Demento ...
loved the dr demento show
I remember when I was only a lad going to Oingo Boingo concerts at Irvine meadows every halloween. Now taking my family to his halloween shows for the nightmare before christmas show at the Hollywood bowl. In my personal opinion, their last album Boingo was his masterpiece
Jose, I’m sure we were in the same crowd at Irvine Meadows. Saw Boingo there at least 3 times. 🎃
You and I probably rubbed elbows!
@JoseRodriguez Haha--"Only a lad." I see what you did there :)
I was probably there too! Love this band, wish they would get more love on the internets…
Danny Elfman's is an absolute genius. Always puts me in the mood to listen to Talking Heads, too.
Please react to ‘Just Another Day’
You’ll see how OB matured musically over the years.
OMG probably my favorite Oingo song, the song that was in my head at the start of the COVID
There is not much for him to dissect - It is a great song but not much in music theory
DUDE. YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO HIS TWO NEW TRACKS "HAPPY" AND "SORRY." THEY ARE INSANE.
I've only really ever experienced Dead Man's Party from Oingo Boingo, but this was wild. I'll have to check out more. I hear some influence towards Mr. Bungle.
They're incredible and definitely seemed to be a Bungle influence. Their first 3 albums are just amazing
You need to see Oingo Boingo Former Members! So much better than DMP.
@@Highland804 think they just meant the song.
Pleeeeze react to Cardiacs. If you like Oingo Bingo you'll love them!
It's obvious that pretty much any Tim Burton movie has Danny, but Pee-wee Herman, Tales From The Crypt, and Beetlejuice animated tv show all clicked in after a few seconds. Didn't really occur you me that Takes From The Crypt was Danny Elfman
Liked before you even played it, lol. Love me some Boingo! This was a great choice with the devil's triad (Beetlejuice and The Simpsons predecessor here). My favorite Boingo song is still Skin, which is my go-to song for high-quality '80s vibe.
My 80's trifecta: Oingo Boingo...B-52's...Devo
And to add next level trifecta: Gary Numan...Soft Cell...Yaz
Great choices 5 outta 6. Gary Numen I'd change with Art of Noise, or Talking Heads.
CARDIACS !
Oingo Boingo, Sparks, Madness
Immediately at the very intro, I got Pee Wee’s Big Adventure with a little Simpson’s mixed in. Afterwards I got some Nightmare Before Christmas vibes going. I posted this at the 6:00 mark, so I’ll see if I pick up on anymore and which ones are mentioned at the end.
Edit: A flash of Batman when those trumpets came in and quickly fluttered.
I bought my 1st CD player in '88 & the 1st CD I bought was _Nothing To Fear_ on recommendation from the guy at the record shop... was never the same afterward 🤘😂
So many kids have missed out on the genius of Oingo Boingo
Best band ever, forever.
I've always said that if you lived in southern San Diego there were two kinds of music: Oingo Boingo and everything else.
And yes, Oingo Boingo was my first concert. The funny thing about that was I was listening to 91X at the time and I was outside a Ticketmaster just when a commercial for the July 18, 1986 Oingo Boingo concert at the Open Air Auditorium came on. Well, I took that as a sign so I immediately went into Ticketmaster and bought a ticket. The entire concert was a good time.
Don't forget that almost 2nd to none voice.my goodness there almost was no one better.his range was extremely rare.punk became new wave & new wave was very staccato.Danny was much more staccato in the beginning & then he went off.the Boingo album.& BOINGO ALIVE.Oingo Boingo is 1 of my all time bands ever.so amazing.
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice! And Nightmare Before Christmas amongst others. I love his work too, thanks for this TBT reaction Geebz!
WINNER!!!!
Discovered Boingo back in 6th grade in 1984 and still love them to this day. This song always felt to me like it belongs in Nightmare before Christmas even though this song predates that movie by many many years.
First album I ever bought and will never forget riding my bike home from the music store to listen to this gem. Met the band a few years later at the same record store for an organized event and had them sign my Nothing to Fear album cover. Wish an old tweaker friend wouldn't have stolen it a couple years later. Would love to have it framed. Such a unique band. Gotta love the 80's, the last decade of truly unique awesome bands from so many different genres.
Thanks for doing this brought me right back to being a teenager in SoCal in Huntington beach listening to KROQ
I have always wanted Weird Al to do a parody of this song called Nasty Hobbits. That said everything Danny has done has been incredible. His work gets me through all the hard times.
Still Here. GEEBZ you can here a lot of SKA and AFRICAN drums. You can also here some CAB CALLOWAY Influences. ✌🤙
De-Composer Danny is awesome. I grew up with Oingo Boingo. I've seen them in concert 4 times. ✌🤙
Without looking anything up (and without any of your hints), and in the order that I heard them (and some repeat later in the song), I heard:
Pee Wee's Big Adventure
Nightmare Before Christmas
The next "spooky" sounding part sounded so familiar, but I didn't know that one.
The next kinda "western" sounding part didn't remind me of anything.
And after I looked both those up and YEP, Danny Elfman. I mean when I heard him singing I instantly heard Jack Skellington.
Ok, so after looking at his IMDB, maybe the first part wasn't Pee-Wee, but Beetlejuice, although they both have the two-tone piano beat.
Definitely a Beetlejuice-esque vibe to this song. Really, you can definitely hear how Elfmans early Boingo stuff makes its way into the Tim Burton movies. I first discovered this album going through my older brother's vinyls in the early 80s (he would have been in his mid to late teens then, also). I was in early gradeschool at the time. I remember dropping the needle and hearing the first few notes of Only A Lad and was hooked. Have been a HUGE fan of Danny Elfman ever since (mixed in with bands like Type O Negative, Cathedral, Metallica, etc).
Ahola! I've been waiting to ask you to check out a killer cover of Oingo Boingo's song Dead Man's Party(in the style of Iron Maiden) released on the channel "Two Minutes to Late Night". I guess this is the perfect time! That channel's lead, Jordan Olds, composed the cover and it features Nili Brosh(Elfman's newest guitarist), Rody and Mike from Protest the Hero, Pete Griffin(too many bands to list) and Jordan Olds aka Gwarsineo Hall. The concept and quality of this Boingo cover is top notch. Thanks for doing all these videos, they are part of my daily routine now. Mahalo!
Love Oingo Boingo!Danny Elfman, great composer of OST.
Wasn't his family Vaudvillian? Too cool to see you Stoked!
Thank you for this, Geebz! I love that this song specifically is part of your history (didn't think I could love you much more) and that you just want to gab on how great Danny is as a musician and composer (choreographer?) on whole. I just came from watching your Faith No More "Slow burn" and hearing you compare Mike Patton and Danny Elfman made my heart fly! If you ever have interest in doing a Danny Elfman or Oingo Boingo "slow burn" I would LOVE to see either of those videos. (And I would be more than happy to suggest some stand-outs!) Though, from the sound of things, you are more than familiar with both bodies of work, so maybe it wouldn't be as exciting as discovering something for the first time.
Oingo Boingo is hands-down my favourite band of all time. There's just no one like them, before or since. And Danny Elfman is such a talented and insanely diverse composer, it bums me out to see many fans only know him as "Tim Burton's composer" or "the guy who does spooky stuff." He's one of a kind! I love that you love him, and loved getting to see you geek out over this and share a little of your history with us, too. :)
"How to Disappear Completely" by Radiohead please! I'm still here!
Hey Mike - I see you dropping much love for this track - promise it will be the next one I do from them - need to get through this week with my list - hang in there! Awwwwright!
@@KeyOfGeebz Ahh! You are the best! Keep being you.
I get a Kurt Weill influence in his music. Maybe review Alabama Song - The Doors or Richard Butler perhaps.
Early Boingo is life. The drama. The taboo. The creeps. The beats. The energy. It doesn’t get better than this for weirdos like me.
You gave me a flashback of mixdowns before automation! All hands on deck! LOL
I remember almost having to fight a table full of guys in the Enlisted Club at Tinker AFB, Ok. We were talking about most talented bands and I wouldn't back down from Boingo. And I didn't. But chairs were backed up and we were all standing.
This is awesome; lets see more Oingo Boingo!
I love Oingo Boingo!! 🖤
Amazing song. My favorite Boingo song!!
For some reason when I listen to Oingo Boingo, I have to listen to Men at Work and Jethro Tull. I think would be interesting to see Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick reacted to. Love these vids, and love to hear someone so passionate about music. Keep rambling :D
Interesting! Boingo was my first concert and Men At Work was my third! Both feature brass (of course Tull had flute...)... you could say all three had a flair for the dramatic and I think both Boingo and Tull had relatively complex arrangements for relatively accessible music... someone make a Venn Diagram! Haha
Jeez that piano stomp at the beginning is straight up 'The Simpsons'. Crazy tune lol ✌🏻
Oingo Boingo was an incredible band! Every musician was truly a master of their main instrument and they all played multiple instruments.
Nasty Habits is a perfect song to talk about with composition, arrangement and recording. Some of those horn runs are amazing!
I also think Steve Bartek deserves recognition as arranger, helping Danny realize his vision.
Thanks for doing this video! Love your stuff here on RUclips. I always takeaway something really useful!
Hey man, love the videos, I'm a musician/producer myself and you have been inspiring to focus on the small details and soundscape in my work, I'd love to see you break down some frank zappa
This song has an almost Klezmer feel to it. It's amazing the genres that Danny would blend together back then.
Let's not forget, "Grey Matter"! One of the greatest tracks from him/them EVER!
And live! Soooo good.
It's interesting that you brought up the keyboards because the keyboardist was Richard Gibbs, and he is a composer in his own right and did work for the reboot of Battlestar Galactica. As for Danny Elfman arranging... That is almost always done by Steve Bartek, he was lead guitars for Oingo Boingo and did the arranging for the group and followed Danny and still does the arrangements for him today.
This is their first full length album and they sound so crisp and clean, but many of them had been working with each other for years, as part of The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo. A performing arts group that did a lot of comedy jazz. Their swan song was a movie named Forbidden Zone. It was directed by Danny's brother Richard, he has done some other movies since then and Danny composes for all of them. I have to assume there is a family discount because they are all super low budget productions. They wanted something to remember their work as the Mystic Knights and decided to make a film. It's ultra low budget, we're talking about sets you'd find in an elementary school play.
Boxing them into a specific genre is really tough because they have elements of ska, punk, jazz, even gospel (the sound, not the subject). And they evolved over time, with each album. I joked that they broke up too soon because the swing revival occurred shortly after they broke up and they could have owned that scene because... well they actually had practice with some of the old standards. They were known to break out into Minnie the Moocher in concert, and you can find audio files of them performing St. James Infirmary.
They are my all time favorite band, thanks for doing a video and for choosing a song that isn't one of the more well known pieces.
Ahhh I just mentioned Oingo Boingo and Type O Negative on your latest video, scroll through to find you've already touched on both bands! Danny Elfman is a beast, and Peter Steele (TON) is as well - but their last album is truly a masterpiece. I still recommend you check out "September Sun" by them, absolutely beautiful and intricate. And of course, "Insanity" by Oingo Boingo! Although it looks like you've already enjoyed quite a bit of Danny
Boingo has their own musical genre, It is simply Oingo Boingo
My DUDE! Love Oingo Boingo! Man, you gotta watch the live video of “Insanity.” Heck, react to it, it’s one of the best songs Danny Elfman has ever put together.
Richard Elfman got into street performing and in 72 he and his brother Danny formed the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo.... there is a video here on RUclips where they are on the Gong Show, and that street circus sound remained when Danny took over the group and took it from street performance to new wave.... you should watch Dannys rendition of Cab Calloway's Minnie the Moocher from those early days, also Richard's movie that featured The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo ( Forbiden Zone ) is well worth a watch
this in the farewell concert Halloween is a great version of this song. the whole farewell concert is awesome.
The farewell concert is NEXT-LEVEL!! Seeing him in action is magical--he's somewhere between 'possessed' and 'intoxicated' and he just pulls you in... the whole band has this primal energy, and when that's paired with technical excellence, you get magic.
Nasty Habits sounds like the direct inspiration for Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, as a matter of fact, I could swear that parts of Nasty Habits are actually used in the movie. Now I need to rewatch it.
Love the first first album.!!!! Danny has relesed his firs solo record in 30yrs, "Big Mess"!!!! Please react to "Happy"!!!!!
Oh hell yes!!! Finally some Boingo
One of the few bands with no bad albums
Aaaand another musical fact I learned just right here. Never knew about Oingo Boingo. Thanks again. Keep on decomposing!
Pee Wees Big Adventure popped in my head right away
Tchaikovsky was one of Dannys early influences. His trip to Africa also had some influence on percussion instruments, marimbas.
Anyone else can't help but think of Katchaturian's Sabre Dance whenever he hears certain motifs in Elfman's compositions?
Oingo Boingo gave us the theme for The Simpsons, Pee Wee Herman, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas and the first Batman movie! They were all over the 80’s.
Funny thing about this song, Avenged Sevenfold have a song called "A Little Piece of Heaven" that Boingo guitarist Steve Bartek arranged the strings and the song borrows a lot of the melodies from this song.
Also the Only A Lad album is getting remastered btw!!
I graduated HS in 85 and this was my best and my favorite band. the nightmare that was Phil Collins "arrangements" for horns wasn't close the horn section here. who would you rather play with?
I got to know the name Danny Elfman in relation to Oingo Boingo before any of his other works and it absolutely blew my mind when I realized that I had heard both his voice and compositions in so many movies throughout the years.
Danny played with a small orchestra, and sings at cochella recently. Did film scores. Oingo boingo, and new stuff. Watched it on youtube
I'd say Cardiacs (England) were the most likely contemporary to Oingo Boingo.
Just found you. This song- so amazing. thanks for covering Danny.
Yes, I did get Batman, Simpsons and Tales from the Crypt from this and didn't even know why, at first. Wow...this blows my mind, actually. I never realized that this very particular "ta-da-ta-da-da-ta-da-da-ta-daaaa" pattern and its derivations is apparently all due to his work. I have seen his name many times, but never connected all the dots.
Can you also hear the Mark Mothersbaugh scores in early DEVO? That would be fun to try too. I saw Oingo Boingo at Perkins Palace in Pasadena on New Year's Eve, 1980-81
Ok, 1, still here🤙🏼 and 2, I'm about a month late on this comment. Life, man. ALRIGHT!
Beetlejuice, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Batman, Batman Returns, Edward Scissorhands, Nightmare Before Christmas... the list goes on, but those are all the bits I hear listening to this track. All of which were childhood favorites.
Could be some Frank Zappa influence there for Danny Elfman, which would include Igor Stravinsky influence by default.
I actually "reverse engineered" myself to discovering Oingo Boingo from falling for Elfman's movie scores. Now every album has Jack Skellington putting on a concert in my head. Also, Eugene Levy on bass? YES!
A hero, and the reason I read the credits on shows and movies. Tool and Primus inspired me to get an Audio Production degree, which brought me back to all the old passions like Danny Elman.
LOVE your videos, keep on keeping on😎🤙🏼(jumping to 7empest now!)
MOAR OINGO BOINGO! Specifically, Just Another Day - Oingo Boingo. Please, thank you. :D
Great song to react to, I was hoping for some Oingo! Thank you thank you thank you!
Love them!!
Oingo Boingo was a big influence on Mr. Bungle. You should do them some time.
MB is on the list for sure!
Loved the interview on Spotify. Keep up the great work, my guy. 🤘🙏💯
Wow David, thank you so much. Awwwright!
Certainly influenced by Raymond Scott and Carl Stallings' Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons. Some shades of Sparks in their also, at least lyrically...
Criminally underrated and nearly forgotten(?) band.
Not if I can help it! :)
If anyone has never heard Oingo Boingo's Full version of the song Weird Science you should check it out. Only heard it myself a few years ago. I had no idea there was a longer version of the song.
