As promised, here’s my second chunk of utterly delightful B-52s multi-media for your listening, viewing and dancing pleasure. This selection covers songs from their second album, 1980’s Wild Planet, which picks up right where their debut left off with more tales of parties going off the rails, trips to Venus, speed demons, and private Idahos.

“Private Idaho”—“Get out of the state, out of the state you’re in!”
 

 
“SURPRISE!” Insanely great live version of “Party Out of Bounds” from the Rock in Rio festival, 1985
 

 
“Give Me Back My Man” another key Cindy Wilson number from the early years: “I’ll give you fish, I’ll give you candy, I’ll give you-hoo everything that I’ve ever had.” This is my kinda torch singer!
 

 
“Dirty Back Road,” a rather sweet-sounding paen to anal sex…
 

 
“Devil in My Car,” from 1978.
