Saw these guys on the second stage of River Rave circa 2001. They played this song and pacman came out during the pacman part and then they pushed pacman into the audience and he crowd surfed.
@@cjackdead I went to the 2000 and 01, coulda sworn it was 01 but ill take your word for it. I remember Weiland came onstage in a dress and screamed into the microphone which created such feedback my ears are still ringing today. SOAD was great, too. I remember that GA became a warzone of mosh pits. Great show.
Falco (real name: Johann Hölzel) was a big well-known austrian singer and musician. Some of his biggest hits were "Rock me Amadeus", "Jeanny", "Out of the dark" and "Der Kommissar". His songs were often frank and critical. They often sounded like hip-hop. Falco died in 1998 by a car crash in the Dominican Republic. He was only 40 years old.
The song is like what happens when both the 80s and the 90s decades had a love child! Let's pass this baton of a song to the new generations to come! 🤟😎
This song is chock full of metaphors. What made me laugh the very first time I heard this was the Tori Spelling line because my dad was a huge Beverly Hills 90210 fan so when BH Gang shouted her out all I could picture was her face with those buggy little eyes.
brian pitts damn this post is old af. Any ways, bo jackson (football player) broke his hip and ended his career prematurely. Check out some of his old highlight reels. Guy was a beast. (Edited spelling)
My dad refused to buy this for me after hearing bad touch and also the cover of the album, so I just bought it myself at my local Hot topic because they were relaxed about children buying albums with parental advisory stickers.
I have listened to this song since I was in the 7th grade this was like 2001 it was not untill tonight I was like wait I know that riff and ran to the comments to confirm lol crazy.
@quinnfap Falco was a great austrian 80's-singer and songwriter (real name: Johann Hölzel). One of his greatest hits "Rock me Amadeus", by the way, his greatest hit in the USA, is sampled in this song. If you search, you can find a lot of his songs on TH-cam.
there is a part of me that wishes they would do a skit of Pac-Man getting arrested for buying crack from an undercover cop, the Pac Man bit is my favorite part of the song.
Send a letter in the mail in braile to johnny quest. Send me back my etch a sketch! Absolutely love this song. So random and just lol throughout the whole song. Remember listening to this on repeat when it came out on CD.. thise were the days. Now i just listened to it drunk.
this BAND IS SO GREAT BECAUSE ITS SO FUNNY WE ALWAYS LISTENED TO as like 10 year old year olds and as i am german talking, never had any idea that this had so sick lyrics
@locustsymphony You're right, beside one little thing: Falco was an Austrian, not a German. He was born and he lived in Vienna, but he spoke German ;-)
This came on one day when I was driving my new subi me and my wife had bought , I just put a single 10" apline type R and that thing pounded , anyways I'm revoked to drive for 10 years , I had to drive myself that day to get to work.....this song came on once I made it into my neighborhood (my safe spot) holy shit I was jammin 😂😂😂😂

How did you get the idea that the "african american voiced" dude took the crack when he clearly said "nah, can't help you there?" I'm genuinely curious.
For all of those asking what this song is about, it's about being bored. So bored to the point where you wanna grow a mullet, listen to Journey, watch Cops naked, all while smoking crack with Pac Man. Im talkin Bored liek Luciano Pavarotti on a treadmill.
@klb2000000 XD that's what kept me here LOL I was about to go check out another video when all of a sudden, it got outrageously epic in ways no man can express.. I'm not really a metallica fan, but I AM a huge fan of freakin awesome guitar..
@gerudodragon1 He's not wrong. There IS "such a thing as" a German speakin musician, well actually a singer and songwriter, named Falco. His real name was Johann Hölzel. And if you still don't believe me and all the other users here, you can reseach, like on Wikipedia, there is an article about Falco and about "Mope", where every reference is explained. And look up here: watch?v=s7uFIBZchUY It's the video of Falcos great hit "Rock me amadeus", that was used at the beginning of the song.

Are you saying that this is the 90's kids version of We didn't start the fire?
I swear while they were writing this, they just went "Fuck it" and threw the Pac-Man part in

"Less hip than Bo Jackson" thats just brilliant right there.

@@SuttonSantiniPaulo oh ok. yeah i know who he was. just didnt know about the injury. thanks
RIP Falco, you were a real one.
My parents bought me this album when I was 12 years old, in 1999.
I was 11 and it was grandma
My Dad and I would blast this song in his RX-7 / subwoofer at random fast food drive-thrus when I was 15.
‘99 - ‘05 were some magical years.
My dad refused to buy this for me after hearing bad touch and also the cover of the album, so I just bought it myself at my local Hot topic because they were relaxed about children buying albums with parental advisory stickers.
This song gave birth to the mashup, I believe.
I didn't know you could rap to Metallica
Jimmy Pop found a way.
I have listened to this song since I was in the 7th grade this was like 2001 it was not untill tonight I was like wait I know that riff and ran to the comments to confirm lol crazy.
And it sounds amazing
This is part of what got me hooked on these guys. I mean, they're awesome alone, but I was so stoked when I heard that riff in the chorus.
Love this one so much, reminds me of childhood with my daddy
This whole Album is fire.
