it was only last month that I figured out that the backing vocals in Eyes Without A Face were
singing "Les yeux sans visage" --  which means "eyes without a face" en francais.

At the Fillmore in December, his burly bass player sang it in falsetto!


it's a famous French horror film:

the MJ imitator in the background is hilarious.  I guess "Japan" scanned better than "China"

He could have said "Sudan", but that would not have been funny.

Repo Man:

Kevin: [singing] ... feelin' 7-Up, I'm feelin' 7-up. Feelin' 7-up, I'm feelin' 7-up...
Otto: Kevin, stop singing!
Kevin: What? I wasn't singing, guy.
Otto: [Stamping a price tag on Kevin's glasses] I'm standin' right next to you and you're fuckin' singing, cut it out.
Kevin: Why so tense, guy?

I'm not gonna take it. No, really, I don't wanna hear this Twisted Sister tune.

ha!  I Wanna Rock really does!  another BOS

that silly intro got me thinking: is this Breakfast Club?  Ferris Beuller?

A bit of useless trivia:  The kid in the Twisted Sister videos is Jeremy Sisto of Six Feet Under (Billy) and Law & Order fame.

The kid at the beginning where the father (who, of course, was the actor from Animal House) was yelling at him?

Side note: If anyone sees "She's A Beauty" video, the kid on that video is Alexis Arquette.
