The B - 52’s (The Band) (2 Viewers)

[St. Widge]

Well whenever Beaver Productions was involved, chances were Zebra were close by lolol

People never believe me when I tell them this. But, I grew up in Da Parish and didn't hear a Zebra song until I was in my 40s. I had heard the name growing up, but never heard one of their songs until many years later.

I don’t appreciate you thread-jacking my B-52’s thread for your Jesuit High School flashbacks and Jell-O shots. (Kidding)

I'll admit I remember their popular radio songs. I was into metal back then. I wore my Judas Priest and AC/DC albums
out. Heck, I'm still into metal,but no longer listen to it on 11. I'm old now lol

Off the top of my head Total Eclipse of the Heart and She Blinded me with Science are both above that song. Give me enough time and I’ll get it out of the top 50.

Omg that was amazing....the best bit was when real life crazy genius super scientist Magnus Pyke jumps out and does a bit of the vocals...insane

You could get them out of the top 50 with Grateful Dead songs alone.

Well the 80s wasn’t their best song writing phase, but at least 20 or so.

Yup....My friends and I thought they were better than Uriah Heep....

I saw them for the first time was I was 15, at some CYO gym....was totally blown away. They did a bunch of covers (mostly but not all LZ), Passage to Bankok (Rush), Ride My Seesaw (Moody Blues).....

Zero Grateful Dead songs played at prom
But that’s not the main reason they suck
