What's really terrifying is that I caught myself singing Teasa- Louise as I was scrubbing the kitchen floor the other day. This isn't funny anymore, somebody's gonna get hurt!
LOL! I was sitting in the back seat of a car and we were all waiting for the signal change when this big boobed chick walking on the crosswalk with this great tude and I started singing Teaser Louise and my friends are going WTH? LOL.
So awesome to see Sheila Falcone giving out FREE haircuts at Villa la Paloma in Perry Caravello's apartment. Definitely helps during these hard financial times!
Lololololololololololololololololololololololololololololol…..sharing her talent…pull the other one…she had none….and when your dead…you don’t Rest In Peace…your dead….the dead could care less….we all become food for the worms…grow up.
Maybe it resonates with you because she's a display of what everbody craves for......being authentic and genuine and don't give a fuck about the thoughts of others concerning your person. Peace ⚘ 👋🇩🇪
I've got a limited edition 7" single of this masterwork. Pressed on virgin vinyl. It will be in my casket when I'm finally buried. It's my most prized possession.
I had to listen to this because I thought there might be some innuendo, allegory, metaphor for something. Nope. It’s pretty straight forward. It’s a song about asking for a haircut and then going on an incoherent rant about the hairdresser. I love it!!!
I don't even have this as a guilty pleasure and have been passing on the gold to twitch for streamers. I love it for every part of its corny nature but it's also heartfelt and it's incredible to see not so talented folk not being utterly ridiculed. My missus will kill me if I sing this again mind you 😂
I know that a lot of folks think simply of Lucille and this song as a joke. While a lot of its value is certainly in the totally unexpected musical and lyrical elements which do make it unintentionally comedic to unexpected proportions, I have to honestly say for the record: I admire her intensity, uniqueness, and zeal. And though the song is not conventional in structure, she's not off key (contrary to some comments), and she's got a lot of feeling in her voice. From the little I've seen online of her in recent years, I gather this moment in time isn't something she necessarily relishes; but I hope she owns it proudly and knows that she's added a lot of color, vibrancy, and demonstration of the power of individuality to many music lovers' lives!
@@skyDN1974 She passed in the summer of '22 at only 69 years-old. Wild because I thought she was in her 40s when these taped. Rest in paradise, Louise. ✨
Have been obsessively watching all Stairway to Stardom videos for several days, and this is certainly one of my favorites. Amazing song. Best lyics ever: "...all the guys call it 'Tease-a Louise". Brilliant late-70's forced rhyme.
This might be the best RU-vid video I have ever seen EVER. I am laughing so hard that I am crying tears. God bless Lucille and whomever posted this video. Everyone I know is getting this for Christmas.
Yes but it isn't the exact recording of the one playing in the background here. Sounds like a demo or something. There are prominent male backing vocals you can't hear in the one on Amazon/Spotify...the background track here sounds much more raw. Especially during the Tease A Louise parts and for the last minute and a half of the song... I wish I could hear it better. Sounds more folksy with the male vocals in there.
I also think it could be a bad performance because she gave them the wrong tape OR they're playing the the wrong take. If you listen with earbuds, this makes sense. She sings it more like the one on Amazon/Spotify.
I'd honestly love to know if she meant this as a medley of Hairdresser & Tease-A-Louise, or if the Tease-A-Louise segment are just some lyrics with a totally different melody that she thought would go nicely in the middle of this four minute long pop song called Hairdresser. Also, I recently caught myself singing this song while pushing my cart through the supermarket, and I was PISSED.
Learning this just turned my whole life upside-down. I lost my job, my wife left me, my dog moved in with my neighbor after he bit me. Don't if I'll ever get back to good.
This is like the Beatles song 'A day in the life' in that it's two songs in one. The Beatles needed both Lennon ("I read the news today oh boy...") and McCartney (Woke up got out of bed. Dragged a comb across my head"). This musical genius of a lady meanwhile produced both "Hairdresser. Oh oh." and "Teaser Louise..." all by herself.
The problem with our American society is that instead of applauding people with the courage to put themselves out there, people mock it. At least she put herself out there, moved by creativity and love of music. We now have this platform to bully behind a computer screen with anonymity.....why would you want to? It spreads like weeds throughout our society. Instead, try digging internally to find the courage to do something that is meaningful to you out of vulnerability. I bet you people laughing and making such negative comments don’t have a fraction of the courage Lucille Cataldo had when the camera turned on and she gave her all to her music. Sad commentary about this society. I will pray for you all.
That's what happens when you change the lyrics to your own song halfway through you end up with a minute and 36 seconds of the words hairdresser over and over again
OK. So the main issue with this video is the sound processing. It appears that there is a "ducking" effect - probably a compressor that engages whenever she sings. Everytime she sings, the music practically drops out entirely. The performance would have improved if that were not happening.
This has to be the worst piece of music I've ever heard, she needs to be punished. It's just all over the place, with no melody to speak of. It's like my brain is protesting, after listening a couple of times I still can't really remember a line to hum or whistle.
It would be brilliant with better production actually. The likes of Madonna, Beyonce and Lady Gaga wouldn't sound much better in similar circumstances.
A platinum winning song written by Steve Porcaro for Lucille Cataldo. Steve wrote this while on a cocaine binge in the seedy Neighborhood of Puras Vergas, San Francisco.
Tease a Louise doesn't have hair or a face? Did she suffer an industrial chemical accident? Perhaps this is why she can't drink beer from a bottle. She is physically unable.....it's tragic really
