Nothing bad ever happens to me - Oingo Boingo

[@Nethrezar]

I love how in the third verse, the biggest concern is not about someone killing themselves, but rather how their suicide "ruined everyone's day".

[@TheJunkieBox]

+Cracked Dagger It's not even his concern. He doesn't care.

[@JustinLevine123]

He doesn't even mention the suicide until the very end of the verse. It was an afterthought.

[@EuroThemeParkArchive]

That's irony for you! A song about careless attitudes and people's blissful ignorance to troubles going on around them. I love Oingo Boingo for this, always making a point with a great tune and an air of mystery that made you think!

[@ingridfong-daley5899]

It feels like the psychological post script commentary on a culture of passive Narcissism. :) But mostly it just makes me realise that i watch way too many serial killer/true crime documentaries--i can identify with that bizarre 'left out' feeling way too well... but that's okay. i have awesome music to console myself with. ;)

[@IDONTLIKEMONDAYS-w2h]

My son's suicide ruined everyone's day

[@cecilyerker]

To me this song is genius because while it condemns being detached from other people’s suffering, it also kind of acknowledges that it’s a necessity to do that to survive in this day and age, especially if you can’t do anything about it.

[@rubbykibress7808]

@@we7034 "todays age" may be vastly easier on humanity as a whole, but because of the large scale communication that exists today you not only have to worry about your tribe or your village but you have to worry about the entire planet and every one of its 7 billion human residents. I think what the original commenter meant is that the message of this song is that it is hard to worry about anything on that scale without just detaching completely, but that it is also possible to worry too much as this could result in feeling inadequate.

[@orfeo793]

@@we7034 10, 100, or 1000 years ago, the sentiment would be the same. but especially with how connected we all are today and the amount of tragedies and atrocities we're able to learn about with just a tap of our finger, it rings especially true. if one were to get all worked up over all of it instead of focusing mostly on their own life and social circle/community they would go insane.

Yes. I used his song Grey Matter for my adv. English Lit. Class. We brought recordings of a song 🎵 that had meaning to us and play it to the class and do an oral report on the song. Teacher loved the song and I got an A. I was NOT an A student. Not until my 2nd year of college anyway. I had ADD and didn't know it (it was 1988 and I was born in 1967) 😉. My teacher was a surfer and kinda a rebel. He wod show movies in class like the Terminator and other popular R rates movies even though he knew he would get in trouble. He also was a coach of the surf 🏄‍♂️ club (I was a surfer too). Everyone loved this guy. Sorry for the long text but just kinda took a nostalgic trip down memory lane and wanted to share with the class 👋😎.

[@MissNovemberTuesday]

Think of it this way: all the music is out there. Listen to what you want. There IS good music out now, but if you want to just listen to older music, that's totally cool, too. I listen to a lot of stuff that came out decades before I was born. All music is to be enjoyed, no matter what year or how old someone is.

[@xilitla.]

based asf im really happy someone in the past made this comment

[@danwest3825]

I kinda think that everyone missed the point of this song since I see comments like "I need this video to survive the horrible things in the world because I can't change them." Which is exactly the point that Danny Elfman is trying to make, we are ignoring the suffering around us because it doesn't affect us directly. And what most people seem to forget is that the horrible things happening to others eventually happen to you

[@Wiseman108]

Danny Elfman's dance moves are so transcendentally good. Like why is anyone else even dancing when it was already perfected years ago

[@eqsheiky]

My strongest memory of this song was in about 1984. I was a kid and comic book collector. There was only one comic shop in my town and when I showed up one Saturday morning, this dude who worked there and always dressed in karate gi pants with some band t-shirt was playing this song behind the counter. It stuck with me right away, it was a great morning, I had enough money to buy a back issue or two (maybe 3 or 4 bucks, they were cheap then), and my Dad was away for some reason so he could'nt scream me awake and shit on me all day. When I hear this song, I feel like the day is free of worry, which is kind of ironic but fitting.

Am I wrong to think that this is a critique on society for not caring for one another, rather than an anthem to enthuse about not caring?

[@OuroborosChoked]

It seems likely that that's the intent of the song, but the case really isn't made why one _should_ care. It's just reveling in irony without advancing any ideas of its own. Ironically, the song's wallowing in irony ends up making the song an anthem for self-concern, rather than a sharp criticism of it. It's the equivalent of someone going: "Ooh, look at me! I don't care about other people!" "Uh... okay. What do you recommend?" "Um... well... Hey! Look over there!"

oingo boingo brings back great memories of KROQ.106.7

[@mozzerianmisanthrope406]

It makes me sad that I'll likely never see an Oingo gig or see Danny solo due to being in the UK, and that absolutely sucks.

[@davidbaumgarten8339]

Seen Oingo Boingo 2 times,fun fun concert

[@octaviocarusoguitarra]

awesome danny elfman

[@donnajpro]

I owned an Oingo Boingo VHS. I am sick that they change the technology on us - we lose all of this stuff. Nobody knows how important Danny's work is because Ophiuchus is so new. Danny is Channeling straight from Alpha Ophiuchus through his Moon aligned with the Eye of Ophiuchus on the Zodiac Belt. Revive Oingo Boingo videos - they are important vibrations and sounds TRULY!

we got it easy fear not

[@donnajpro]

+Heath Archer :) Thank you for the TLC

[@RiceReaper]

Apparently Danny isnt particularly fond of his oingo boingo days

[@cecilyerker]

That's kind of interesting because I read a lot of people joking about how he's an alien including myself, but yeah, the guy is definitely a channel for something. He's hearing the music of the heavenly spheres and nailing them down on paper. There's a lot of ancient lore about redheads being gods or aliens. Is he a starseed? Almost certainly, since all our souls originated somewhere in the universe.

[@HadalStreetlights]

So much crazy in these comments. xP

God's angels are watching over me, so yes, nothing bad ever happens to me. Philippians 1:21 For to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.

[@JamBear]

Oh man, nice use of the kalimba

[@alexandratronic7793]

Cool bass line and rythm, and Danny! 🖤🖤.
