Fingers crossed that they are finally getting their due and going into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year. They have earned it! The best party band to ever come out of Athens,Georgia!
The B52's totally deserve to be nominated and accepted into the RRHOF but who knows with an organization thats a total farce & bad joke?
Totally agree! Even if the Rock and Roll of Fame is pretty wack. They 100% deserve respect!
they are everything the hall is suppose to be about, absolutely spectacular band that are also absolutely unique and individual and the creativity is suppose to take precedence over the mainstream success and popularity. but we are well past the point where very mediocre but successful bands keep going in while the really interesting bands with big loyal followings get ignored. i fond Cindi and Kate two of the most under rated vocalists of all time.
Totally agree!!!🎶🎶
@@newwavepop every word of your commentary is gospel. Can't add a thing. Especially representing cindi & kate
Still one of the most played bands at night time beach parties in the surf culture of Western Australia! A couple joints, a fire pit, pretty girls in bikini's and The B52's is all you need for a party in the west...RIP Ricky. :)
This explains a lot with machine gun felatio's sound
I used to catch them at the milestone in Charlotte nc for 4 bucks as a kid in the early 80s. REM for same price. Great memories
This is heaven!
Best reply.
If you didn't hear Cindy singing, listen to it again. She and Kate were singing harmonies throughout. Now listen to "Roam."
If you want to...
That album is all killer no filler
Roam and Planet Claire
roam around the world?
Yes, LOVE Roam!!!
They sound like a parody band but are actually extremely talented. They could make any type of music they want but decided to jump into and stay in their own unique lane.
It fun and dance music. Pure and simple
They keep their tongues firmly planted in their cheeks.
Parody? really? a parody of who?
This is real Punk Rock, not the bullshit Sex Pistol marketing garbage.
When they hit the scene, bands were either disco or classic rock like Tom Petty, Pink Floyd, or The Who. You just listened to them. When the B-52s sang, you moved and just had fun. They were a breath of fresh air.
“Planet Claire” is another great B-52’s classic. 👍
The vocal harmonies of Kate Pearson and Cindy Wilson are one of the defining sounds of the B-52s. Kate had the big hair and was playing keyboards. Cindy had the white dress on and joined the vocals mostly for harmonies. You've heard this and Rock Lobster, Time for Planet Claire.
It's bloody choice keeping this music alive with a new generation getting into it I've been a fan of the B52s since i was a kid in the 70s got to see them when I was around 18/20 years old 1988/90 can't remember exactly what year I'd love to see them react to Iggy Pop and Kate Pierson CANDY
Yes, Planet Claire!
& Give Me Back My Man…. If you think you missed Cindy Wilson, this one showcases her!
"Give Me Back My Man" -- "I ain't no limburger!"
Yes! Planet Claire
Brad&Lex, you'll love their "Roam", "Dance This Mess Around", and "Planet Claire". Roam was as big a hit as Love Shack, and the other 2 are wild and fun at like Private Idaho. Welcome little Bro!
Don't forget about Quiche Loraine and Party Gone Out Of Bounds and the 52 Girls. So many great songs
80s new wave influences, 60s fashion and style, and the secret weapon - a 50s era approach to guitar.
B52s prove you can have fun and still make seriously great, original music. Cindy & Kate have some of the best harmonies of any genre.
The B-52s and REM were the main staples of the Athens, Georgia alternative music scene in the 80s. They got big by playing college parties throughout the south and finally got noticed by the record labels.
Don't Forget Pylon. The members of REM thought Pylon was a better band.
All the indie bands loved Pylon and yet I only know of them via those other bands' hype. I think REM covered one of their songs. "Fireplace"?
@@johncampbell756 It was "Crazy."
@@johncampbell756 Stipe helped Pylon produce "Chain," in 1990.
@@johncampbell756 I did not know who pylon was until "Chain." I worked my way back.
If you can't dance to the B-52s, you either can't dance or don't like to have fun.
Good one again.
I graduated from high school in 1983. Whenever we needed to get a party rockin', it was the B-52's that never failed. I remember so many pool parties on summer nights with the B-52's blasting on the outdoor speakers! Another great one from them is "Party Out Of Bounds" and "Dance This Mess Around"! Also, I'll never forget the night I saw the B-52's open up a concert for The Who!
Absolutely! 1984 graduation from high school,!
Our time
Omg was that in Florida when they had stuff thrown at them??
I think "Give Me Back My Man" with Cindy Wilson on vocals is my favorite.
like davids comment so they do this one.
Yes I agree, one of the best songs of the Eighties featuring Cindy's incredible powerhouse vocals, gives me shivers.
Live The B-52's go all out, guns blazing to have fun, but musically I think they are incredibly creative & Arty.
Just describing them as some sort of party novelty act is way off the mark. Just listen to 'Ain't It A Shame' featuring Cindy on vocals again, so heartfelt, one of the most beautiful songs ever.
"Give Me Back my Man" has great vocals by Cindy. Watch the live version at the Capitol Theatre.
Music is so crazy. I grew up being a huge Zeppelin, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Van Halen fan and not really a B52 fan, BUT...Private Idaho is one of my favorite songs ever. It never gets old and it always sounds awesome. I truly love this song
Same. My sister used to play b52s when I was growing up and I never really paid attention. Lately got tired of listening to the same crap and one day at work just put rock lobster on RUclips and went from there and holy hell this hits hard in my headphones when I want to get something done that I really don’t want to do.
They are singing about a potatoe....it doesn't get any better than this. Rock on B52's. Rip Ricky.
"Like he was joking, but he was not joking." Oh, he was definitely joking! The big hair and retro '60s look was a big part of the B-52's image; they did it to be weird! They were a little bit punky, a little bit kitschy, and part of the Athens, Georgia sound that came out in the late '70s - early '80s. You would always hear some of their music at every college frat party, back in the day.
Well, considering they were part of the "College Radio" scene back in the day, that's no surprise at all. That label applied to some fun, quirky bands in the early to mid 80s which included them, R.E.M., They Might Be Giants, The The, and Violent Femmes (that I can remember, there's probably others that I can't); their music was very popular on various college radio stations throughout the U.S (which was kind of odd in a way, since none of these bands were anywhere close to the mainstream at the time, although B52s and R.E.M. did have commercial success in the late 80s and early 90s).
The big hair is called a Beehive.
@@briandeeley1599 NIcknamed a B-52, hence the band's name.
@@LynnThompsonAuthor I always wondered why they picked the name B-52's so it is not because they liked WW2 bombers! LOL!
In this episode of Brad & Lex & Berto, Berto seems to enjoy the B 52's sound from the jump by broadcasting a mixture of Big bro Brad's "side to side sway" and Lex's frontal bop.
B52s are your party band of the 80s. Drop an umbrella in your drink and dive in!
Beehive hair, 1950's style, two singers with that style = B 52's. That is where their name came from.
The B52's, out of Athens Georgia, were part of "the new wave" music scene, along with Blondie, Talking Heads, GoGos, and so many others that were a tad more musical and less serious than the contemporaneous punk movement...
The B52's look was early (pre-hippies) 60s (my older sis wore a beehive do back in the day).
The thing to understand about the B-52s is that the energy is the music and the music is the energy. It isn't any more complicated than that.
I always get that "Beach Party" vibe when I listen to the B52s. Still love em to this day.
“Roam” and “Love Shack “ are probably their biggest mainstream hits! Back in the 80’s this was party music!
" has anybody seen, a dog dyed dark green? With sunglasses and a bonnet, wearing designer jeans with appliques on it, she's about nine inches tall, with a strawberry blonde fall, the dog that brought me so much joy, Quiche Lorraine "
B52s dance this mess around,it is sublime.
Definitely some 60s surf music influence in that one, and 60s influence in the fashion style, but also late 70s and early 80s New Wave in both the sound and fashion, with a bit of punk thrown in.
In any case, there's something about their sound I've always liked.
B-52's were everywhere in the early 80's, you couldn't walk down the street without this song or Rock Lobster coming out of a window somewhere. Ah, the old daze.
Or Love Shack.
@@3DJapan
You couldn't hear that one in the early 80s, as it came out in 1989...(although it was their biggest commercial success).
I only heard their Wild Planet album because my brother had it when it was fairly new. "Private Idaho" is the only song I heard on the radio back then, but that was maybe a couple years later, and I didn't hear it often. It probably wasn't until the late 80's when I heard their first album. Can't recall if that was before or after Cosmic Thing was released. I remember hearing a profile of them on Brave New Waves, and shortly after that they were more popular than ever with "Love Shack" and "Roam".
So, behind Cindy in the white dress is Ricky, her brother. He passed away from aids back in the day.
So if you also look at the drummer in this video, he later took over guitar duties to this day.
Director Gus Van Sant titled his 1991 film My Own Private Idaho, starring River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves, after The B-52's "Private Idaho". The movie is good, but the song is more fun. Also check out The B-52's "Give Me Back My Man" when you can. It complements "Rock Lobster" well. Their songs "Lava" and "Planet Claire" are fun too.
The B-52s were such a unique band. I can imagine how the student gigs were when then started out! 😁😎
The girls are top notch singers, they nail harmonies every time - 'Roam' is a truly top vocal joy....
I absolutely love The B52's!! They are so much fun. You can't help but be happy when you listen to them!
John Lennon said that The B52s restored his faith in music.
My own private Idaho was a movie made in 1991 staring Keanu Reeve and River Phoenix . the title means to be in a Utopian world of your own imagination. (the ultimate comfort zone).The song is about getting out of the comfort zone and face reality.
Fred's "singing" style, he primarily uses sprechgesang, a type of singing in which the song is not sung melodically, but rather spoken in rhythm and less melodically.
Sprechgesang... That is a fucking awesome word. I listened to someone say it over and over and read the def and examples and the dif between spechgesang and the other cool word that 'goes' with this.... I LOVE new words¡! I gotta go back and copy it lol
I first saw the B52's on German television on July 7, 1983. It was a live show recorded a few months earlier in Dortmund, Germany. It was only a 30 min set, but it changed my life. I was 15.
B52s are great, a weird mix of 50s rockabilly, 60s stuff and 80s new wave
B52s are untouchable man. Glad people are recognizing this band
1980. Early new wave, over the top, wacky. Yes the girl in white was singing background the whole song.
B 52's are so very fun to see in concert...I've been able to see them on 4 separate occasions !!
The B52's were all about doing want they wanted and having fun.
B52s are a real group but they are just a fun group and sometimes silly
"ROCK LOBSTER" is another must by the B52's.
Dude! You mentioned Cake so that's an automatic sub! Much love and respect!
The band is from Athens, GA, home to the University of Georgia where they were students when the band was formed. Don’t figure them out - they are just FUN. Also from this little college town: R.E.M., Widespread Panic, Drive-by Truckers, of Montreal, Neutral Milk Hotel, Azure Ray, Pylon, the Glands, Vigilantes of Love, Vic Chesnutt, Reptar, Apples in Stereo, Olivia Tremor Control, Dead Confederate, John Barry, Ravenstone, Danger Mouse, Love Tractor, and so many more. Just an amazing little town that The NY Times said is the birthplace of indie music.
First music I bought with my own money - 45 rpm record with Rock Lobster on side A, and Private Idaho on the reverse. Maybe 1979 - I’ll put it on tonight when get home!
I have been to well over 100 live concerts over the years! After the B-52's I was never so exhausted from a show in all my life! You cannot stop dancing, bouncing, jumping up and down, on and on. From the very start until the very end! Even my dates each time I saw them were excited and all revved up! Unbelievable, unless you have been there!
Ricky Wilson sure could lay down a groove with a four-string guitar! Gone waaaay too soon.
Agreed...
And using duct tape to hold his strap on because the strap lock broke (in this video anyway)! All joking aside, I've always loved his riffs, so sublime and in your face at the same time.
Awesome pick guys! Such a great song. Your brother looks like a cool kid btw. Good to see family
What a great band they were. So talented and creative. They loved the 60's obviously...Lol...
I went to the University of Georgia in Athens in 1981. God, what a magical time. I remember seeing them at the Mad Hatter club. They put Athens on the map which was then basically a college town. They and the Swimming pool Q's will always be etched in my mind. They were the party.
Dont forget the mighty REM
Tell you what, Berto has been a great addition to the team! He really gets a lot of these tunes!
Lex is NAILING this as usual; definitely 80s but with a SERIOUS 60s flair with the hairstyles and costumes....
A little bit earlier, 1978.
@@KGP2010 Sorry Kevin, Private Idaho is DEFINITELY 80s; it came out in late 1980.
Berto understands how much fun the B52s are.
The B-52s were VERY serious about their humor !!!!
The B-52s are the most amazing concert party band. I saw them twice. So good, spiritual & fun. Private Idaho was the first song i ever heard off Wild Planet. Then I bought the yellow album & i was hooked still to this day!! Brads brother is so cute.
The B-52s,came out of Georgia and were friends with REM, I always took this to mean your life is a boring as a potatoes.
This is why I fckk with y’all. You really love music and take chances.
Love this song!!! I was waiting for your reaction to this song. This was a banger in the 80s in Peru. I remember as a kid watching my older cousins dancing.
I loved this song as a 16y.o when it came out, I loved most of their music and still think its good today, I'm glad you guys like it as well, some music is timeless some is bet to be left in the past. lol Peggy form married with Children had a career it seems, before he met Al, lol that hairstyle reminds me of Peggy lol
Wow, I haven't heard this song in probably 30 years. That said, you absolutely MUST listen to "Quiche Lorraine," which is possibly their funniest song.
I remember having a big crush on Cindy Wilson (white dress)…right behind Stevie Nicks and Debbie Harry.
The B-52s are an art band hiding under a facade of campy dance party music, 60s clothes, and silly lyrics. Yes, the other woman (the guitarist's sister) can sing. Check out "Give Me Back My Man" for a great example. Also, being from Athens myself, I can tell you that the song "Deadbeat Club" totally captures the vibe in Athens back in the 80s.
Love to see someone mention Give Me Back My Man! One of my personal favourite B-52s songs- largely because it showcases the ladies' voices so beautifully. I grew up (in the 90s-00s) listening to my parents' best of album, but only discovered this one recently as it wasn't on it.
THE B-52'S ARE A COLLEGE PARTY BAND AND ARE FABULOUS
Berto knows what is up 👌 This is a Classic 🔥🔥🔥
Y'alls smiles is what makes the B-52s so great
One of the many great tracks from the B-52s... Ricky Wilson (RIP) was killing it on the guitar. Next, check out "Give Me Back My Man." 🙂🙂🙂
When ever I meet someone happy in their ignorance I think of this song
Well put, it could apply to many today. I'll have to keep this in mind.
New Wave. Cindy (in the white dress) is an excellent singer and they have dozens and dozens of hits. React to Cindy singing 'Give Me Back My Man'.
Their first two albums are beyond genius.
B52S For Rock n Roll Hall of Fame 2022. Nomination through 🤞
I saw them as the opening act for the Talking Heads in Boston. Each band had just released their first albums. 300 capacity Club Paradise. 😎👍
Saw them in the 80s. Most entertaing thing I've seen. Crowd dressed up like their favorite ban members
OMG!!!! I looooove this band! They are a huge party. Songs are tongue in cheek and so much fun to watch live. The hair is wigs. lol Inspired by 60's Go-Go style.
The band's even named for a hairstyle - the B-52 was a type of beehive hairdo in the '60s.
DM, now B-52s. Love it. Early new wave music
America's favorite party band!!!
I was at Magic Mountain Valencia CA 1979 at the giant jutebox which was an outside dance party and the B52s Rock a lobster came on. All the valley girls were bopping and frugin and these tourists from the Midwest with their kids were standing around with their mouths open. It was priceless.
This is funny that your watching this retro 80's video but back then the B52's were nostalgic about the retro days of the 50's & 60's. My high school years were in the 80's. Good Times to the B52's.
One of my favorites is not one of their big hits but it's really funny. "Quiche Lorraine"
Very seriously talented, and very serious about not being serious. The B52s are their whole own genre, there's really no other band like them.
And they have *so* many great tracks. Goes way deeper than the three or four songs that pop up on first search.
Love you guys!! The naive nature of your musical acumen is great! It's awesome seeing genuine reactions for the first time! Kate Pierson (the keyboard player) is a musical genius. Look it up dudes. Love your channel!!!
The B-52's were songs we danced to years ago when we went to clubs. Always great dance songs from these guys.
You were bouncing along ..secretly you guys loved it :)
An awesome song! Music back in the day is much better than today!!
Welcome aboard! My brothers and I saw The B-52s perform at an outdoor concert in downtown Los Angeles some years back and they had the entire crowd dancing throughout the whole concert. It was a wonderful experience!
The musicality of the 80s still amazes me. It must cause a lot of confusion in the minds of the new millennium.
The un-official song for my state of Idaho.
This is one of the songs I play when running my AR-15 at the range.
40+ years of B-52’s kickin ass!
I have to say my favorite song from the B52 is Give Me back my Man. I thought that was there best song.
They are fun, and artistic, and daaaamn serious when it comes to PARTY
Loved watching Lex enjoy this one
The B52's are so fun, they seem like fun people to hang out with.
"This can't be! But then it was ". I can't think of a better reaction to the B-52s.
This is real Punk Rock. This is a statement, it's not a joke.
They're named after the hairstyle the girls are sporting. B52 = Big Hair that looked like the engine on the B52 bomber plane.
They're emulating the surf/garage bands from the mid to late 60's. I love this band.
Yes,Yes,Yes to the B52s. 🤘😎 Great Reaction from Brad & Lex, and Guest star Berto
Simple music played so well. This band is in the pocket! Artistic and funny at the same time. Like satire.
If you haven't lost a pound of sweat after dancing to the B-52's, you're not doing it right.
You nailed it. It's 60s mainstream culture on acid
New Wave was music by Baby Boomers who grew up listening to the radio and buying vinyl and going to concerts.
They had appreciation for what had come before and weren't trying to make music that was entirely new of distinctly different.
They put their own personalities into their art and saw every aspect of musical entertainment as something that could bring out their creativity and individual spark.
They weren't afraid of being drafted and forced to fight an unconstitutional war and if a nuclear war happened wouldn't you be glad you had enjoyed your life?
