Any Oingo Boingo fans here?

I love Oingo Boingo, there's just something so beautiful about their music, no matter how weird and quirky it gets, Danny Elfman is a accomplished composer, but his work with Boingo shows he is much more, he is also an accomplished songwriter (His work on Nightmare Before Christmas shows this also), and although some might disagree, he is a great singer, plus, he had to have been one of rock's greatest frontmen, if you ever see a video of one of their Universal Ampitheatre performances, you will surprised at how much energy he has on stage

I recommend the following songs for the Boingo beginniner:
Little Girls
Only a Lad
Grey Matter
Private Life
Gratitude
Just Another Day
Dead Man's Party
No One Lives Forever
Stay
Weird Science
We Close Our Eyes
Insanity

These songs are for those who want to start to slowly delve into the bizarre world that is Oingo Boingo, songs from the bizarre, but strangely beautiful, imagination of Danny Elfman

Sure. They're a fun band. But, of course, I love a lot of bands from the 80s. And, yes. Elfman is quite talented. But don't forget his work with Pee Wee Herman! hahahehehe
