Whip It

Who would have ever thought that red plastic planters would become iconic head gear?!?

Devo did!!!!!!. Such a weird and quirky band with funky dance moves yet who could deny loving this song? I don't know if words could explain what i was thinking the first time i got the pleasure of seeing this gem of a music video.... Yes, i know it's the 80's and yes, i know Devo is a kooky band but this is weirder than anything i've ever seen before!
When i first heard "Whip it" i thought it was pretty silly and catchy. Especially loved the cracking whip sounds in the background!!!!
Just throw together a western scene with some drunk cowboys and girls, hanging out watching the lead singer of the band take of a ladies clothes with his whip. You got yourself one hell of a music video! Don't forget about the crosseyed girl with the gun... random!

Whenever i hear whip it, i just dance around like a kid and crack my imaginary whip! Wish i had that red planter! hahahaha
Watch the video and have a laugh!
remember.... "when a problem comes along, you must whip it!"
