The B52's Rock Lobster Reaction | Lyrics Analysis

[@scottgelb2650]

You two do some of the best reactions I've heard. And I love that you do some songs that no one else is reacting to. This is one of my favorite party songs from way back when I was young :-)

[@moodyblues108]

Love your reacction. It is art because it was original and refreshing at the time and through time. All their songs are different and yet original. Glad you love it. I always imagine whenever they would go to a say Hollywood party they must have been treated like rock gods. Any song they do is amazing. Hope you do more. They dont do overlydeep lyrics, just rocking.

[@johncampbell756]

This song is its own party.

[@BlankVideo88]

You guys are so cool for being open mindedness. Love your analysis and how the guy simply just went to the flow.

[@stevewilson9694]

Really love you guys you seem so genuine . Kirti is so beautiful and her facial expression are so awesome. You both seem to be sincere

[@dano9008]

With the B52's, you bring a sense of humor and just have fun.

[@johnnorman7180]

Met my wife of 28 years on a blind date to see B-52s. Will always be special to me. They also are made for live shows the closest thing is Marina and the diamonds

[@adammiller6606]

So groovy and so much fun. Glad you liked the B-52’s. 👍

[@charcolew]

The B52s have been a large feature of my music for 40 years. Finally saw them a year ago and it was worth the wait!

[@netzahuacoyotl]

B52s were riffing on beach party movies from the 1960s. The lyrics are just playing around with the imagery of those old movies. The twangy guitar is reminiscent of 1960s surf music. Totally postmodern art and fun party song.

[@Deborahtunes]

That makes sense. It's the same vibe I got from it, the first time I heard it back in its release...

[@freebirdtony]

Brings me back to my senior year in high school. Class of '80.

[@johnmccullough6540]

Middle school dances in the 80s!

[@bobzorn6259]

Yes! I danced myself silly to this at the 8th grade dance in 1981😂😂😂

[@kevanbodsworth9868]

But Art School version ,

[@cici7333]

Oh I love your reactions!! The B 52s are fabulous! I've loved them for 40 yrs. Thank you so much for posting this. They have so many other great songs, especially the older ones like this. ♥️

[@Deborahtunes]

This was such a crazy, but fun song when it came out in 1979/'80. My mother didn't know what to make of it. But my aunt and I loved it. All the unusual vocals were so incredible. The whole song reminded me of dances in the 1960's...

[@Seachase100]

When it comes to zany fun and funky grooves, no one can beat The B-52's. Truly a one-of-a-kind band with a unique sound. My other favorites from them are, Lava Private Idaho Dance this Mess Around Topaz Love Shack Roam There's a Moon in the Sky 52 Girls ....actually, every song on their first two albums, as well as their "Cosmic Thing" album.

[@redtailedblackcockatoo96]

another great time listening to music with Enoma

[@reaganlives8069]

GREAT reaction , your breakdown of the song was spot on

[@covenben]

in 1979 rock lobster was the first new wave song to be played in a disco and it was a big hit to dance to. their second was strobe light 1980 great memories. God to be 19 again lol.

[@yv2929]

This is a great dance song with great guitar and zany sounds accompanying the fish names 😂 An amusing song Enoma 🎧 🌀

[@Zeupater]

The B52s are their own genre. They belong in the R&RHoF. Check out their first two albums, you’ll see. The water feels great. Also, apparently John Lennon heard this song and decided he needed to get back in the studio.

[@stevechesney2498]

Another nostalgia song that takes me back to elementary school when they would play this song at school.

[@carleckert6794]

This is one of those songs, were all you know is the chorus and the music will be stuck in your head...

[@renewd]

I hope you guys watched a live performance video to get the full effect!

[@SpartanGuy83]

Takes me back to high school!!!! Thank you!

[@danielmchenry1000]

"this is art". you got it!

[@MrBill2719]

Clubs and parties dancing and rolling around on the floor. Ah, the good times. Enjoyed their reaction, but I defy anyone to "relax" to this.

[@martinmarquardt8589]

One of my favorite bands from the late 70s

[@kwcozort]

Yes!!! I get to see my favorite dance moves. I never could figure out the meaning of this song other than it is not about a rock, it's about a...…….. ROCK LOBSTER! Fun song with a guitar riff that was instantly iconic.

[@moodyblues108]

Better to watch them live, they are so funny. Love love loved this song in the late 70s 80s. So so many hits. It's totally original. They have hits throughout the decades.

[@brianjomansenstinesmith5132]

you should find a video of them preforming this.

[@cheesesandwich1236]

Oh man, dancing to this at a wild summer lifegaurd party in the late 80's !

[@haydenochoa1681]

I first heard this song when I was In a bar about 38 years ago.

[@dankewillcommen]

I consider this the funnest song ever recorded!

[@Noobshire]

This song is fun incarnate.

[@65Bardy]

Yes, allways good Party-Stuff. I own 4 Albums of the B52s. Loving it. Music that makes you smile.

[@rowdyron4111]

Awesome!

[@trevorleggo1777]

Check Planet Clair B-52's....

[@arthurimhof2427]

I love your reaction. FYI all the sound effects are human done by the two ladies in the band Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson... There fun and it's what everyone should have.

[@sanddab]

Great band!!!

[@nelsonx5326]

Fun song.

[@stevechesney2498]

You always know when Savio is really enjoying the song. 😃

[@richardsingh5827]

Nice moves 😂😂

[@stevenrice8439]

Sometimes the best message is just to have fun.

[@bobbyboykin5671]

Request how about doing history repeating by Shirley Bassey you might like her

[@susannewitt6112]

I was sooo young when this came out. Kate Pierson

[@incarnate3362]

Such a fun song....lol

[@nerdymetaldude]

It's the only song that makes me want to dance...

[@AudiophileTubes]

Why did you change your channel's name? Just curious.

[@andrewgarin2486]

Please do 'Lava' from the same 1979 album.....more slower catchy...the best from early B-52's IMO.

[@Seanriver316]

High energy college party band!

[@dennisjohnson7943]

The funnest rock band,ever! Private Idaho.

[@mrsullyrox]

hear the Yoko Ono influence......

[@marksmith-zk1ly]

I hope you know when I give a dislike it is because I don't like the song , I think you guys give awesome reactions & ignore the haters they are probably just jealous because you guys seem very intelligent and happy and a beautiful wife and get to react to videos most likely things they wish they had or could do.

[@marksmith-zk1ly]

@@bloodyfishheads3316 you must really b a total a-hole with nothing better 2 do then troll people what a loser

[@johnj28]

A dumb but fun song!

[@zzrydr]

Let's see Kirti with her hair down please

[@exeuroweenie]

Cuter couple than any of those royals or movie stars.

[@dontletherspeak7575]

b52s - private idaho

[@kevanbodsworth9868]

Its all about Party fun and no sense. art ..

[@YLS8763]

I’d love it if you guys could react to And Justice For All by Metallica. Very relevant lyrics and awesome musical transitions.

[@briancarnival6916]

Has anyone seen Captain Kirk !?

[@bugvswindshield]

heavy metal head in HS when this song was released . No one wanted to like it. Its " new wave" its got too much "digital" … crazy femimale band. But!!!!!!!!!!!! I forced this on my fellow metal head friends . "listen to it then judge muther %^&&&%" …..and ...a delighted fk ya! That's a great song!!! Every die hard agreed. This is one of the my fav rock and roll songs of all time.

[@kiserdurden5867]

I watch your vids a lot (Kirti is still a cutie!). I know you love Rush and so do I. I also love the B52's. Totally different music. One very thoughtful and sublime music, the other just fun no deep meaning dance party tunes. There is a place for both. You just have to be in a different mood, just be open to both. One can exist and be enjoyed with the other. You should try some R.E.M. they combine soulful music with nonsensical (mostly) lyrics. Here start you of with one they did with the B52's. kzbin.info/www/bejne/onuVqnSkj5l4j8U But explore more from that band. You will enjoy.

[@mpkelley20]

I couldn’t stand the b52’s back then. And still can’t. Lol.

[@Easelgames]

Great instrumentals, with catchy chorus, but the rest is nonsense lyrically haha. (not in a bad way)

[@thefirstmonkey3156]

punk rock vibe not pop
