What is your Oingo Boingo song?

I have to think about this one for a while. I will say this. Having spent High School and College in Southern California, I know more people with Oingo Boingo as their favorite band than any other band.

I don't know a whole lot of their material, but for a favorite song, I might just have to go with "Little Girls," even though it makes me feel like a creep for enjoying it. There's just so much interesting stuff going on in the melody and instrumentation, and none of the complexity distracts from the manic, bouncy momentum of the song.

Imposter.

Saw them live at the Warfield in the mid 90s, great show.

Wow, I don't think a know a single frickin' Oingo Boingo song. My eyes are lowered in shame. But a quick google shows me that Danny Elfman, of all people, was in that band! So it may be a bit of a stretch but I'll go with the themesong to Batman: The Animated Series.

I'm gonna have to go with Little Guns, mostly for sentimental reasons. But all the songs that made it onto this tribute album are wonderful.

So much for Spud bait.
My pick will be:

Who do you Want to Be

But that's kind of a whimsical choice, there's dozens more I could pick.

I don't know Oingo Boingo very well, so I have to go with the song that introduced me to the band.

I was confused by that one myself. Did he just misspell bait or he was hopin' for some strokin'?

Embarrassingly, just misspelled. Typing when tired, and unfortunately typing a real word so there wasn't a little red line to keep me from looking stupid.

Too many to name.... Dead Man's Party, Weird Science, Private Life, whatever was played in "Back to School" with Rodney Dangerfield...
