Mexican Radio...

Here it is. Because it was such a fucking great song, and as it was released 26 years ago in the US it has bypassed so many.

Fucking brilliant and well underrated song. I think I first heard it around the mid 80s and I've never forgotten it, or loved it any less. Worthy thread.

I used to have this... Good song. Brings back memories of my childhood.

Never did really like this song - not a bad song by any means, just never liked the singing on it.

lol, i just posted this in the animal collective thread yesterday. i have been singing it for 2 days....

It is one catchy song. El-P sampled the strange noise thing you hear at the beginning (though it gets cut off in the YouTube movie) and faintly at the end.

Anyone who likes Mexican Radio can be my wife anyday.

Gotta admit I had all but forgotten it until was watching some old Seinfeld recently and Kramer is reversing the peephole to his apartment and singing it.

Here's another whacky one from a couple of years later...not such a fan, but still good memories.
