When the music is so lame that it can be accurately reproduced with balloon sounds, your pop culture is officially substandard:
[99 Red Balloons – played with red balloons] (Viewer #2,333,858)
For the record, I found the balloon version far more clever and entertaining than the original.

I’d gladly wear oversized shoulder-pads if it meant we could have another Reagan in the White House or that chick do another song.
Harvey, I hope you’re not suggesting today’s music is any better.
How can the decade that gave us Ronald Reagan and The A-Team be considered ridiculous?
Besides, there is a Captain Kirk reference in both the German and English versions of the original.
Don’t forget Huey Lewis and the News and Mike and the Mechanics!
Oppo, I checked out Nena on YouTube a while back. She is still performing and recordind, and looking as good as ever at 50 plus. And not a lot of extra padding anywhere as I recall. Haven’t played that album in years though, like almost all of my old vinyl

im trying to fathom the logistics of him doing that at a live show.
