John Fogerty wasn't "Born on the Bayou."

You'll never get an exact explanation of any AFI song.

Yeah that's right. I said AFI. I cop to liking them back in college.

Oh and Rammstein songs have double if not triple meanings.

I would like definitions of "chooglin" and "hoodoo" though.

But all 2 if not 3 are "tentacle rape."

Perhaps. But when they sung in Spanish. It was strangely hilarious.

Rammstein inspires the same feelings that gangsta rap does in me - "what? They're serious?!?! Get the fuck outta here!"

I never took those guys for being ultra serious. I took it for extreme fuckin around. And besides German is perfect for that kind of music.

When your stage show has involved combining pyrotechnics and dildos, it's doubtful that it's being taken all that seriously.

And them singing in Spanish about banging a whore is great.

I always get that feeling from Slipknot.

Now that I can agree with.

Don't call this a music thing I just noticed. Rather, call it a music thing that only sunk in on Friday afternoon while sitting in traffic: it isn't enough for the Divinyls' lead singer to proclaim repeatedly, "When I think about you, I touch myself." Oh no, to underscore this, during the fadeout she repeats, "I honestly do." Y'know, just in case there were any doubters out there.

Dildos that actually, you know, squirt. Live. So awesome to watch.

I can't believe that I: 1. knew that fact and 2. admitted that fact on the boards.

Michael Jackson's "Heal The World" stole its melody from John Williams' Jaws End Titles theme.

Hoodoo does have a definition, but the jury's probably still out on chooglin.
post #66 of 69
Hoodoo - 1. An folk magic tradition, a mixture of Voodoo and folk traditions with its source in the Deep South. Usually involves charms, potions, spells, etc.
2. A person who practices this type of folk magic or Voodoo
3. Often used to mean the same as Voodoo.

Choogle - To have a good raucous time, as defined by the following Creedence Clearwater Revival lyrics:

"Maybe you don’t understand it.
But if you’re a natural man,
You got to ball and have a good time
And that’s what I call chooglin’."
"Here comes mary lookin’ for harry,
She gonna choogle tonight.
Here comes louie, works in the sewer,
He gonna choogle tonight."

I don't think Creedence (Fogerty, whoever) meant this:

To cheat by using google to look up information and then pretending you knew it all along.


I've learned so much from Urban Dictionary.
post #67 of 69
Huh. Having grown up in the Dirty South, I never heard chooglin used in a sentence, but heard hoodoo lots of times, mostly from people who had a mojo tree in their front yard. Fogerty's a madman!
post #68 of 69
I always imagined "chooglin'" to be the act of impersonating a choo-choo train. The line "a just a chooglin' on down to New Orleans" from "Born on the Bayou" has new meaning for me now.

I witnessed this on the first Family Values DVD. A big dildo attached to a hose, just spraying the audience with water. Pumping his hips all the while.

They also had their keyboard player on a leash. Led him around like a gimp.

Very odd.
