FURANKENSHUTAIN NO KAIJU: SANDA TAI GAIRA (War Of The Gargantuas) - Kipp Hamilton - "The Words Get Stuck In My Throat" (1966)

We know you've been waiting for this one, one of the more famous monster movie songs, and probably THE best song of 1966 altogether, seems like yesterday kind of, when "The Words Got Stuck In My Throat" with the oh, so appropriate ending. From "War Of The Gargantuas" with music by Akira Ifukube, and vocals by Carol Burnett's sister-in-law, Kipp Hamilton. You gotta see it, to believe it!! On everybody's Top Ten and easily found on Youtube!!!

  1. DEVO did a cover of this tune, and, when you think about it, it makes perfect sense!

  2. RIGHT ON! It only appears on bootleg records from the early Eighties! Mark Mothersbaugh played this version on the Doctor Demento show back in the day!

  3. OH!!!! CRAAAAPPPP!!!!! HA! HA!!!
    Everytime that song came on when I was a kid, I freaked out laughing (especially when Kip "gets it" from Nakajima-sensi at the end). My father (rest his soul) used to laugh his butt off and run to the john to PEE afterwards!!

    Now, some 30 years after first seeing it in the '70s, I ALWAYS have a 6-pack of BUD ready for when it comes on.

    PARRRRRRTY!!!!
