That song still has my favorite backstories. I guess the writer was in a store equivalent to a Best Buy at the time and just started writing down a workers conversation about the dumb junk on the display tv and that became the actual lyrics. And then had to cut some major royalties just to have Sting sing a few words in the chorus

I always laugh at the “Smiles his Blacktooth grin” part. I feel like Dave should’ve been cast in a cartoon as a goofy villain type character and he would’ve fit perfectly.

Pantera had their vulgar video with some funny sketches made by the band and I’ll never forget the black tooth grin sketch making fun of toothpaste commercials of the time and Megadeth. 
 

I don’t want it to sound like I don’t like the band, just sometimes Dave’s singing makes me laugh uncontrollably

I always gotta give that duo some credit for making such a big sound with mostly songs played by two people. It’s tough to come up with other great examples of rock duo’s. I think the only other one o listen to is Death From Above which is a Drummer that sings and a bass player that uses effects and heavy distortion to cover for the fact they don’t have a lead guitar or even a rhythm guitar, just drums Vocals and bass. There’s also Simon and Garfunkel, but I really don’t listen to them often

I’m a few days old in discovering that these are the original sources for some very famous hooks 😳:

Specifically, the 2:10 mark:

Dah-dah, duh-duh-dah. . .

That David Mcallum one was always great for an inner city shakedown movie scene.

I remember back when they first hit it big and a guy we knew referred to them as “angry monkey music “. I laughed because it kinda fit
