someone for the love of god help me. I am very wet behind the ears when it comes to ween. Has the song that starts near the 9:40 mark ever been recorded by them other than this? It might be my new favorite song but I can only find it in here.
people like Ween too much man, they're good, but theyre not really creative or groundbreaking enough to have such a huge cult following behind them imo
They are so fu**ing weird that i cannot not like them. They make me question what I think is good. And I'm a Stones, Floyd, Yes and Zeppelin fan at my core. So beautifully strange....and committed to their craft. Luv em.
LMAO that list line by that record store guy was so ween, and it wasn't even said by the guys. "They'll be playing the banjo or something at an alzheimers convention when theyre in their 70s or something like that." Hahahahahaha wtf thats absurd and hilarious
James Young from 3RRR in Melbourne Australia, and Angela Catterns from Triple J in Sydney got Ween to top 10 in Aus, it was marvelous watching my parents expression when Push the little Daisies came on the radio lololol
"Playing a banjo at an alzheimer convention" would be a nice song for Ween to play at an alzheimer convention, on a banjo. "I've got a banjo! I'm at a convention for alzheimers..." It writes itself.
Can't believe I haven't seen this before! I was introduced to Ween when Push the' Little Daisies debuted on MTV and was "mocked" on the next episode of Beavis & Butthead. I knew IMMEDIATELY I loved this fucking band - what a bold move to put that tune in front of a national audience! A few years later in my senior year of high school, me and a friend hosted a weekly 4-hour evening set on our local pirate radio station. Our time slot was *always* Ween-heavy (also Primus and whatever weird shit we could dig out of the crates). Half the time we'd override call-in requests with something from Pure Guava or The Pod if people asked for anything we thought was lame. "Aaalllrrright that was Tool with Stinkfist, and thanks to Julie for calling in! Just for you, here's the Eagles with Hotel California, comin' up on pirate radio 94.9FM..." [Cues up Pollo Asado] The ratio of love to hate from the community at large was hard to measure, but we made sure to broadcast the hate calls live and I still think we were on the right side of history.
How does the creator of this channel not have more subscribers?! This is awesome! I love learning about the history of music that I listen to and I've only just started listening to ween in the last year or so, so this is just phenomenal stuff imo.
Of what I can figure out with a story behind this trippy song, These 3 pumpkins were wandering the forest And enjoying the new Scenery. But they came across this small old man that said, You aint never been in my world, And basically told them to get out. It reminds me of how southerners yell and how they treat The people from the North. You're different from me so you don't belong in my world, That's basically what the old man is saying to these poor pumpkins, It's all part of tribalism honey.
