End of the summer 1978 I walked into Wherehouse records On Sahara Ave. Las Vegas NV. I was intending to buy Van Halen 1 Which dropped months prior. I had just turned 10 Years old. The lady cashier was also working the audio being played in the store. It started with Too much Paranoias then melted into this gem. I approached the cashier to find out who the artist was. Her response was something like, I don't know, new band, Devo, arrived YESTERDAY. I continued to listen to the remaining side 2 And was pretty floored. Needless to say I bought, Are We not Men, instead of Van Halen 1. I'm still in Vegas, I still think I very well could be the first to have bought this record in Las Vegas.

I remember hearing this song in college in 1979 and wondering wtf it was about, but liking it a lot. Devo always had earnestly urgent beats and lyrics. And now, listening to a song like Gut Feeling 40 years later, I can hear just how much of a bridge their style and compositions were between punk and the emergence of early new wave music---that is, 'new wave' before it was swamped by synth and all that slick studio production work of the early 80s. I bet the Fleshtones must have liked & been inspired by Devo - they had the same honest lyrics paired with garage band rock sound. I like all kinds of music from the past 500 years, but the musical ferment & creativity of that period between 1977 - 1983 was pretty exhilarating to have lived through.

They were every bit as prolific and talented as say, The Talking Heads, but they never get talked about being of the same caliber. Its a shame sort of, because they deserve all the same recognition.

No one was ever like DEVO and they are still around thanks to genius movie directors that know Mothersbaugh is a damn genius . You have a band that were and still way overrated with a horrible overrated song ( Freebird) vs. A band that never got much respect but has a solid anthology if you sit down and listen to it .

It is nice to know the other bands watched them and had respect . I bet those booing them have most likely heard Mark Mothersbaugh on a soundtrack or heard his music in a movie and were actually liking what they heard . I am still appalled that Devo gets called One Hit Wonders because of Whip It . They had many great songs and Whip It still makes people sing or causes younger people to ask who is that .

So nice to blunder around the late 70s and early 80s here on KZbin, and every so often run into some fine song like this, and hear it for the very first time.

This could so easily have been a Sparks song. I bought this album in 1978 and still listen to it now.

This is my favorite song ever. That piano part just gets me every time. Even though the words themselves remind me of people I'd like to forget, the music itself reminds me of the person I love above everyone else. Love this, love this, LOVE THIS!!!

Eu já havia ouvido alguma coisa do Devo, no final dos anos 70 e início dos anos 80. Mas, apenas em 1984 eu acabei comprando o álbum Oh, No! It's Devo. Foi uma das melhores experiências da minha vida. Sou um grande fã, desde então.

Around 1978 I was in 8th grade and was into The Sex Pistols, Elvis Costello and the Cars. There was a dude who was in charge of the ice rink at the local park who had a Cheap Trick satin coat, a big ass boom box and played Devo in the warming house. This twenty something guy was king shit to me and my friends and this is where I learned to appreciate and got into this song and Devo.

This song is extraordinary!! Devo seem to be under recognized for their greatness! What an amazing musical experience to listen to and enjoy! I believe this song and Devo’s sound spawned so many great bands that came after and were influenced by this awesome music! I can’t help but hear Devo’s influence in so much music that has followed them!

'Something about your taste makes me wanna clear my throat'. Awesome opening line after that incredible intro. Bought this in '78 when I was 19 because I was already a huge Eno & Bowie fan. Still regularly play it.

And since that day Charley have been nervous and introverted. Even with mom and dad. Teacher was fired from school. There is something about the way he moves nowadays... We never knew what happened in the locker room after class. But we all have a gut feeling of what it really must've been like. Poor Charley.
