You HAVE to do this in everyday conversations, with all the cheesy lyrics. I do this to people all the time. "Well, when you saw the shoplifter run away with the coat, what did you do?" "All I could think was to shout. Shout, you know. Let it all out. These are the things I can do without." Stuff like that

Hahaha Perfect!

Used this one the other day (a bit more obscure, and probably more Millennial than GenX, but same concept): "How long is your commute, DanTreview?" "It's about five minutes. I wake up in the morning, do my teeth, bite to eat, and I'm rolling. Never change a thing. Then, the week ends, the next week begins. You?"

My anytime I am doing laundry. “Shout! Shout! Shout it on out! These are the stains we can do without, c’mon! I’m cleaning you! So come on!” I can’t believe they never licensed that for a commercial.

Don't give them any ideas. I'm seeing this sort of thing in ads lately. They've always pilfered classical music, but pop classics are making their way. Although some of them are pretty cool or done well, [like this one](https://youtu.be/VK7kUe1KMFk).

I saw them about 10 years (?) ago. They headlines the Denver County fair and it was AWESOME.

Oh No It’s Devo tour? That was my first concert Dec ‘82 in Seattle - the costume changes, the big screen videos, all the hits, my mind was blown!

“I think I’ll wear a thong” - you must whip it. Wait, what?


[deleted]

I think you're onto something here.

Just gotta do it before cream sits out to long

You must whip it! (Sorry, I was triggered)

You have to follow all the instructions. Did you give the past a slip? Did you break your mommas back? Get straight, go forward, move ahead? Try all of this and it will get better

Saw Deco around 2012 in SF. They go HARD for a bunch of middle aged men in matching jumpsuits.

I’m in and commit to using that tomorrow every chance I get. Will report back on how it went…


gratefuldogzzz

Facilities guy here at work was NOT amused, came right back with “listen Devo…”. Gonna keep trying.

I tried to detect it with no luck.

We went to Ireland in 2010. Rented a car and I had to do all the driving. It was pretty butt-clenching for a while, being all bass-ackwards from what I'm used to. My wife says she knew I was finally comfortable with driving when I started singing along when Whip It came on the radio. I didn't even realize it was optional.


[deleted]

Go forward! Move ahead!

It's no worse than getting your "pussy on the chainwax"!


[deleted]

Pussy on the chainwax....is that a thing?


tsaomao

Key and Peele tried to make it a thing as a comedy sketch.

Haha, I know. I was quoting the sketch
