Griffith
With the streak of a tear, Like morning dew
Post 'em because you love 'em, hate'em, or you just don't know!
In the latter category, this Oingo Boingo "classic" came on my radio the other day and really made me think... WTF?

I think most people have already heard or heard of this song, know the movie or TV show, but just listening to it as a song now you realize... it's crazy. There's a lot going on here, it's frenetic, wacky, eclectic, and just plain weird both in instrumentation (though not so much for the 80's) and lyrical content, yet it manages to sound cohesive and... catchy, with a couple of different hooks that'll get stuck in your head for the right reasons. Oingo Boingo man, what else would you expect from a band fronted by Danny Elfman?
Well, probably not this.
