I'm 100% OK with Love Shack being "overplayed". It's such a happy silly infectious song.
My all time favourite B-52s song is Private Idaho though.

I saw them way way back, probably 1990 or 91 in Sydney, and again ~5 years back when they toured with Simple Minds. (And I had tickets to see them last July, but fuck you Covid...)
They are great fun live. I highly recommend seeing them if you get the chance - if anything, they're better at it now than they were back when they were younger and still charting. They seem to be having more fun on stage than any band I've ever seen.
- moomin 5y agoI think Private Idaho is perfection. The album's a bit all over the place, though. :D The weird thing with Love Shack is that the B-52s are misremembered as being one-hit wonders.
