Highlight the web address of the vid, then click on the youtube tag you see on the 'post reply' page. Paste web address between youtube tags.

He's a really cool fellow. He was in The Kaisers for a bit, too (not this clip, though, I don't think):

I don't like this as much. Not raw enough.

When I was twelve or thirteen, this was the greatest song that ever was or ever would be recorded. Hearing it again kind of stirs those feelings up once more.

Whoever doesn't think that song is great is a monster. Every time I think that maybe I'm starting to "need more" out of my music, I listen to that song and remember that I'm pretty goddamned happy with loud guitars riffs, anthemic choruses, and a hot singer. It's actually just about one of those "perfect songs" in my mind. Just hits every note it's supposed to and doesn't get old (of course, I wasn't around when it was first getting radio airplay so I've never been inundated with it).

Never seen the video before though, pretty cool.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

It's one of those songs that you immediately like at your first listen. Back in the day, the BW video was
played alot. When looking for it on youtube I was surprised to find a color video of it.
