Is it sure?
First thing I thought of when I saw the thread title. I was listening to the soundtrack to Full Metal Jacket in my car with my 11-year old. He loved a bunch of the songs on the sound track and then got one of his teachers to play “Surfin’ Bird” for the kids at his after school program. They loved it. Did my heart good.
Papa Ooh Mow Mow.

the singer doing what I think is ‘the chicken’ was a riot.

Peter Griffin loves the Bird. But it you play it too much it makes Stewie’s nose bleed.

I was worried it was going to be a clip from Pink Flamingos.
I’ve seen the iconic picture of Johnny Cash doing “The Bird” but I’ve never found the audio...
Would have been epic though.
Iggy Pop knows the bird is the word

Unfortunately NY Post decided to cut the footage short and dub in some dumb generic rock music that isn’t Mr. Pop.
