    Popular song at Halloween parties! Just a fun song about werewolves out and about in London having cocktails, eating Chinese food, - "And his hair was perfect!" 😆 The riff is very similar to Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama". Thanks guys!!

    Warren Zevon: (from 1983 “Off The Record” interview with Mary Turner): Actually, Phil Everly said, in the course of one of these albums he was making, he said, “I need a dance song. Why don’t you write me something. Like “Werewolves of London.” … you have to understand that, if the song is about anything it’s about the kind of friendship where you don’t question what your friends say. Waddy and I have been conversing that way for over a decade, and so we were at LeRoy Marinell’s house in Venice, CA. And we were playing and I was strumming 3 chords. Waddy walked in and said, “What’re you guys doing?” and we said, “We’re doing the Werewolves of London.”
    Waddy said, “Ah-oooh, that’s easy.” I said, “That’s great.” We just rapped. Waddy said, “I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand” and I’d throw something back.. Crystal wrote everything down… she had this notebook … steno pad she always carried around, for occasions like that, I guess … we’d come up with lines and she’d write them down. It went very fast. ✌from California

    Love this song, really catchy tune and I've certainly heard it a lot over the years. You can't help singing it after you've heard it! Another good song from Warren Zevon is Lawyers, Guns and Money (1978). By the way, a film you might like to react to sometime on your movie channel, George, is An American Werewolf in London (1981) directed by John Landis. This might be the one you were thinking about. It's got the best transition I've ever seen in a werewolf film. Also got the song Bad Moon Rising (CCR) in it too! Thanks so much for your reaction to this song, guys, take care now, all the best and stay safe.👍❤

    Lon Chaney is mentioned as well Lon Chaney Jr., both were icons in classic horror movies, Lon Chaney Sr. was called "The man with a thousand faces", he never wanted his son to follow in hos footsteps but Lon Chaney Jr. wanted prove himself to be as great as his father, I guess. Lon Chaney Jr. was the first actor to star as "The Wolfman" in 1941, he also replaced Boris Karloff in one of the 'Frankenstein' movies. This was great, thanks!

    Fun song and lyrics. I believe Mick Fleetwood and John McVie played the drums and bass in this tune as well. It has been said that it is about a well-dressed ladies man, often like a gigolo who comes out at night looking for women. It was very popular when it came out - constantly playing on the radio in the US. Thanks so much guys for posting this one!🧡

    Warren Zevon was one of the greatest singer-song writers to emerge from the 1970's. Many of his lyrics are dark, and introspective, and have been covered by other artists. Unfortunately he died of lung cancer in his mid 50s. I suggest you listen to his "Play It All Night Long", and then dive down the Zevon rabbit hole to "Desperadoes Under The Eaves", "Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner", "The French Inhaler", "Mohammed's Radio", "Carmelita", and so much more..

  • @MrMinuteman69

    This was written on a dare.
    Someone had just watched the movie Werewolves of London. And dared warren and other band members to write a song about it.
    With in minutes they had each shot out different phases for the lyrics. One of the wives of the group had written it all down. They hap hazardly wrote the song.
    It ended up being set aside.
    Years later when warren was putting out another album he dug this up and came up with the song.
    The guitar solo took hours and hours looking for the right take.
    They eventually settled on the very first rift they laid down as the best. So the guitar solo was first attempt.
    Warren really didn't care for the song. He didn't like the idea of it being one of his greatest hits.
    He was always ask to play it at every talk show he was on.
    He died at the age of 56.

    "Werewolves" refers to slick guys getting all decked out and going out on the town, "prowling" for women. That's why you see one at Trader Vics (a famous restaurant) whose "hair was perfect." and another says "I'd like to meet his tailor". He's a part of the nightlife crowd looking for brief relationships.

    There was also a campy horror movie of the same title. It is notable for the all makeup FX in the change from human to wolf using a stop-motion editing/filming technique instead of computer graphics. The slowly decomposing secondary character has some good makeup FX, too.

  • @KandKs_GG

    I don't know, maybe the song was about gigolos. But as a kid who didn't know of such things, I always took it as a commentary of how the unusual and strange (werewolves) was becomming more and more commonplace in society (grabbing Chinese food or drinking at a well known establishment.)
    But not that it was a negative commentary or direction for society. Just an observation set to music and lyrics.
    I could be completely off though.

    The idea for this song originated with Phil Everly who, after watching the movie Werewolf of London (1935) on late-night television, suggested to Zevon that he adapt the title for a song and dance craze.You have to give credit to Warren Zevon for some of the lyrics such as " I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. " Just a fun song.....

    I'm not sure there's any deep meaning behind this song. It's more about how werewolves do normal, everyday things, but they also kill people. Zevon had a particularly warped sense of humor.
