Video Discription |
Coming up next, we've got Devo and a song that is not at all what it seems: Whip It. For over 40 years everyone has thought this all-time hit was "Dirty." It was such a catchy ditty it became a slogan of the 80s and it was one of the first major hits where the main riff was from a synthesizer from one of the funniest bands ever.. Whip It was actually pieces of three different songs that were all in different time signatures and different tempos but Devo combined them into one composition…. the Whip It music video ruled MTV and it was made for a little over 10 grand... Today we have one of its co-writers and singers telling us the real story. Next of Professor of Rock.

When it climbed the charts it was unlike anything on radio. It definitely ushered in a new era that was more than welcome.
The iconic music video was a fixture of MTV from its infancy and the song is a definite catchphrase that still brings a smile to anyone’s face.
