I had no idea Oingo Boingo was so obscure.

It depends on the age group and interests of op friends. I can see current high schoolers not knowing Oingo Boingo.

Hell, I had a friend in college who didn't know who the BEATLES were.

I'm so used to trying to convince my parents of the opposite, that stuff from more than a decade ago hasn't been completely forgotten.

I don't really know anyone where I live (Iowa) who's familiar with them. They might know the song "Weird Science" if you played it for them, but they wouldn't know the band's name. If I understand it right, I think they were really big in California and maybe had a light cult following elsewhere in the U.S. at best. My dad was the one who got me interested in them in the first place...and he was originally from California.

Then once I found out that Danny Elfman was involved in so much stuff I liked as a kid (the aforementioned "Weird Science" song, 'Nightmare Before Christmas', 'Beetlejuice'), that just made me like and appreciate his work even more :D.

It sucks that more people don't know about Oingo Boingo. They're a damn good band. Very fun.

I figured it would be a secret in case people knew who Oingo Boingo was. (The Youtube comments on "Little Girls" are amazing.)

"Little Girls" itself is amazing ear worm material. Well, amazingly creepy, at that...

(Anonymous) 2015-10-11 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahaha, yeah, I remember reading through those once. Everyone was basically like, "...wtf am I watching and listening to here?"

I love Dead Man's Party and Weird Science.

Though those are the two most popular songs, I still know who Oingo Boingo is.

(Anonymous) 2015-10-11 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Oingo Boingo is awesome and I am very glad to see a secret about them!

Ironically, I have no idea who the dude with the spiky hair is. He looks like he could be the frontman of a early 2000s pop punk band.

He's Axel from Kingdom Hearts.

I can see the resemblance!

heh, I'm in the same boat. I saw OB multiple times in concert as a young thing but have no idea who that character is. Still, awesome resemblance.
