Today’s Sounds of Saturday is the brilliant Oingo Boingo with “Dead Man’s Party”. I’m a little embarrassed that I haven’t yet featured Oingo Boingo on this series yet. I had two fish in college, Oingo and Boingo – no joke.
Danny Elfman’s been a little busy scoring films since Oingo Boingo disbanded in 1995 but this is a band that you was amazing live! I’m featuring “Dead Man’s Party” because it was performed in the classic movie “Back To School” and because it brings back great memories for me. Enjoy and I’ll see you Monday!
Have you ever seen Oingo Boingo live? If so, where and how many times? What’s your favorite Oingo song?
Unfortunately I never got to see them live and they are one of my favorite bands. It’s so difficult for me to pick a favorite song, too. It’s a tie between Dead Man’s Party and Just Another Day 🙂
I happen to be partial to “Mary” but Oingo has soooo many good ones, right?
