I don't care HOW you get it, WHERE you find it, but GET IT!! Omg, the guys are laughing all the way through it, and it's sooo much fun! Just thought I'd share that ;)

Lol, yeah. It's funny the way those things work out sometimes. I was listening to "James Dean" earlier, and I went downstairs and turned on the TV, and there was this odd show on that mentioned him like 2 minutes after I switched it on.

LMAO, Jenny is the best song! I think it;s one of the only ones my sister likes, because you can hear how much fun they're having when they're singing it!!

..."I'm washing my hair!!" :hahaha:

ROTFL
I know! I love it, you can tell the guys are just having a great time amongst themselves. I hate when it endsssss :( :P
Yes, I'm completely insane. I did, however, watch LIB 3 times yesterday, so I'm quite giddy and Gooey.


...Washing your hair? Wow, must be hard to type like that!  ::) :P

God darn it, I didn't realize you were quoting. Forgive my stupidity. I always thought he said "I'm washing my Hands" that's why that didn't click on in my mind. Once again, forgive my stupidity. :-[ :-[ :-[

LMAO, I wasn't sure if you'd got it immediately...but glad it;s clicked now!! :P Sorry, maybe I should have quoted more of the lines... ;D

And you never know, maybe it IS "washing my hands..." I've been known to get many a Goo song's words wrong before!! ;)

Nononono, "Washing my hair" makes more sense than "Washing my Hands" :P:P:P I haven't listened to the song that much anyhow, I only got it recently.
Hey, you aren't the only one who gets Goo lyrics wrong! In "Name" the line that goes "And now we're grown up orphans that never knew their names" I thought it was "We never called up our friends and never knew their names". I know, it doesn't make much sense, but that's me. So chances are, it's "hair" ;)

It is washing my hair. And I love when they say the line that's Jenny Jenny you make me so happy...cuz John starts crackin up right before sayin happy and you can just tell he was wantin to replace it with horney instead of happy but he was Johnny b good and left it the way it was supposed to be, but was just about to die laughin his ass off.

Don't you wonder what happened BEFORE this song though?? I mean, the guys had to be drunk or somethingggg!! I dunno, don't care, either! Sounds like they're having a helluva good time, and that makes me happy! ;)

I'm pretty sure it was back in the 93 era

Title: Re: OMFG! Jenny 867-5309! Goo Cover!
Post by nmf016 on Feb 17th, 2005, 5:49pm
There is one file floating around that says it's 96.  I always accepted that as the year it was recorded, but it just occurred to me that it would have had to be while George was in the band...

Title: Re: OMFG! Jenny 867-5309! Goo Cover!

Hmm...Curiouser and curiouser.  ???

I wonder what they would say if someone asked them about it in like an interview or something. I really would like to know what happened before they decided to record it.  ;)

Ha I second that motion... ;D

Yes, wow, Jenny is just the most fun EVER. It still makes me laugh everytime I hear it. I love all the random comments the guys throw in as they're recording it.

"I'll be out in a minute" "What are you doing in there?" "NOTHING!" *cue John laughing*

Title: Re: OMFG! Jenny 867-5309! Goo Cover!
Post by Pinky_Goo on Feb 17th, 2005, 8:19pm
Well, depressingly enough, I couldn't find any information on when why or how "Jenny" was recorded. :sad: The single thing I found out was that the Goos sometimes (used to) perform it at live concerts and stuff. I shall continue to look, but after 45 minutes of searching, it isn't looking like I'll find anything :(

I have the same version, blessed_by_goo. I've been trying and trying to find SOME information on it, but I'm thinking it's just something the guys did for fun that got leaked. There wouldn't really be too much information to find on it, would there?

I think the version most people have was the one recorded in a radio station.  I don't remember which station it was, but it would make sense.  Some radio statio recorded it and played it on the radio and that's how it has be circulated.

Title: Re: OMFG! Jenny 867-5309! Goo Cover!
Post by UpYours on Feb 17th, 2005, 9:18pm
It was recorded from a live radio broadcast.  There's other songs from that set, as well.

That song almost made me pee when I first heard it.  "What are you doing in there ? NOTHING!!"
The laugh after that bit is soo funny!
Also It think that the bit " you don't know know me but you make me so happy hahaha" that laugh kinda sounds sarcastic kinda "oh you thought I was gonna say something else hahaha"
One of those songs that the repeat button was made for ;)

It's from an old radio interview...you have to hear the whole interview cause they were making jokes before they played it and then afterwards the DJ says something about getting alot of prisoner's mails or something and then Johnny says something like if this song were for a guy it would go Jimmy, Jimmy you're the boy for me...it was hysterical...I have the interview on cassette some place...

Post by ladybugpezgoogirl on Mar 2nd, 2005, 1:11pm
I think it says, "I'm washing my head".  First John sings something about knocking on the bathroom door...then jokingly he says "Hey what are you doing in there?" and then Robby says, "I'll be out in a minute, I'm washing my head"  I always thought it was kinda a nasty joke...not talking about the head on top of his body.  Love this version, it cracks me up whenever I listen too it.  

I got this song on a CD I bought on ebay  "The songs you missed"....great CD, it has alot of songs from soundtracks and ones I had never heard before.  In fact one of the songs has been on of my favorites...don't know the name or where it orginated but the main verse "I don't understand you and me baby, I just want to to me mine, make you be mine"  Does anyone know anything about this song?  It's one song I just can't listen to just once

That's the Goos cover of 'I don't want to know'. Originally done by Fleetwood Mac, it was on their best selling 'Rumours' album which was released in 1977...the Goos version featured on the album "Legacy: a tribute to Fleetwood Mac" which also featured Jewel's version of 'You make loving fun' and the Cranberries cover of 'Go your own way', as well as Matchbox 20 covering 'Never going back again'.

John actually changes the lyrics slightly from what they were in the original...he puts his own spin on the song. The music in the original was a lot different too...it was essentially a folk song, but the Goos make it ROCK �8)

I'm a big Fleetwood Mac fan and I LOVE the Goos version of this song, I think they more than did it justice �;D

I love that cd...it's rare that both my fave bands are on the same cd lol and I agree the goos did an awesome job at covering I Don't Want To Know ...I think it has a slight country feel to it, what do all of you think? Kinda like Broadway and Think About Me have this slight country tinge to them.
