Crazy Facts About Music Everyone Should Know (Pt.178) #musicfacts #musichistory #musicshorts #shorts

Did you know? "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day is about lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong's father, who died in 1982 when Armstrong was 10. Steve Harwell of Smash Mouth began as a rapper but switched genres after realizing hip-hop was evolving. CeeLo Green recorded the vocals for Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" in one take, and at Woodstock 94, Primus stopped performing "My Name is Mud" after being pelted with mud by the crowd.

Primus don't throw mud!. Same fest. Green Day. Throw mud!

[aaronburratwood.]

Primus is great in concert. At least they were 15+ years ago, but probably still.

I met Steve Harwell shortly before he passed. My daughter who has Down syndrome just went up to him in a restaurant and sat with him. He and his family were so gracious and nice. We chose not to post any pics or the videos out of respect for his graciousness. We were very sad when he passed. My kid listens to all star all the time now. Cheers RIP STEVE

My Dad passed on September 2, 1998. I know how Billie feels. It breaks a sons heart when the Father dies. Thanks Billie, for saying how it feels.

Les says that at every concert ive ever been to, when people throw something on stage. "The man who threw this shoe has insignificant genitalia, " is what he said back in 1998 when i saw them on the Sno Core tour

I love that song Crazy. And Ceelo is pretty amazing too.

I remember the mud throwing @ Primus. It was raining mud. Im from Saugerties & lived on the festival site, MTV rented out our field it was one wild weekend.

Gnarles Barkley singing Crazy in one take isnt all that impressive. Freddy Mercury sang The Show Must Go On in one take just months before he died, severly ill and reduced to little more than a living skeleton because of AIDS. He never sang it again.

I watched Woodstock 94 with a bunch of friends on PPV.
I lost all respect for primus that day. They cut from less Claypools diaper rash to Billie joe catching a mud pie midair, put it in his mouth and kept playing.
Thats what I'm talking about.

Bro I'll never listen to Wake Me Up When September Ends the same way again

[Xiphos]

by stopping the crowd proved the singers point.

The lack of a father figure explains why bja is so weird 😂

[executenwordusers]

Everyone does it in 1 take...so sick.of that lie

[WarriorCatOfficial]

I remember laughing at the fun fact that Paul McCartney would get the girls attention by dressing in all black, sit in the corner of a room with a guitar, and play it while singing in made up french😂😂

[thgr]

I hate Primus, but Les Claypool is a cool guy.

[EmperorTokugawa]

"What album is this?"
Its called The Chronic
"OH SHT! Im gonna quit rapping because this is how rap music is going to sound!"
...LMAO!!! Bruh.

[mrlimpett]

How did (c)rap music ever get bunched in with rock music?

[GeradBarron]

That means only little dinks go to Primus

[AbeFroman-je]

And billie still cries to this day. Trump did stuff!!😂

[Norbert]

Green Day is a joke bubble gum kiddy crap
