  • Danny Elfman on the Late Late Show with host Craig Ferguson.
    I rescued this video from the depths of an internet archive. First uploaded by user drwestlake.
    I believe this interview took place in 2006.

    He says, "I was in a band, Oingo Boingo." Aaaand nobody claps or responds. What the serious fuck?!? Something is very wrong with the world.

      We are getting old. Millennials are taking over. But besides that, Oingo Boingo didn't get much exposure on radio and had limited MTV video play. In fact, it was movies that got them the most exposure (theme song to movie Weird Science, the "Dead Man's Party" song in the movie Back To School). They were an extremely underrated band and he was an underappreciated musical genius back then. One of many stranded from that era until others found their talent. The sad thing now is that there ARE no more musical geniuses to tap from these days. Welcome to the Millennial generation.

      Nfarce Aww, c'mon man...Kanye West...just ask him. =)
      I agree with your take on things. You mention he was one of many who were unappreciated. Who else did you have in mind? I'm not calling you out, just hoping you will spark a memory of an artist I'd forgotten.

    No yelling or clapping when he mentions his band Oingo Boingo - what a shame. I'm listening to their live version of "Ain't This The LIfe" from Urgh! a Music War - Not too many know about that version. If you do you are hereby given respect.

      Some cheered. Honestly I feel as if many people forget he was a rock star in a band. Oingo Boingo was big, but not for an extended period of time. As soon as Elfman got the composing bug, the band kinda got dropped. But hey, Elfman's scores and magnificent so I think that trade off was worth it.

    I remember a time in the late nineties when I realized that every movie I saw in a theatre was "Music / Soundtrack by: Danny Elfman".
    It became a joke!
    Before a movie started, my husband and I would sit there and bet on whether or not Elfman did the soundtrack (I mean, he couldn't possibly do them ALL!!??) and, I kid you not, every damn time this man's name came up on the screen.

    When your family is wealthy, there is generally more room for artistic nurture, which the Elfmans were lucky to have. Not every talented person has the privilege of "18 year old world traveler to visit my brother in paris" experience.
