1993 single by Crash Test Dummies
POPULARITY
Brad Roberts, the unmistakable baritone behind Crash Test Dummies, is one of the most unique vocalists in alternative rock history. Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, Roberts initially pursued literature and philosophy before turning to music full-time. His deep, resonant voice became the centerpiece of the band's sound—so distinctive that it set them apart immediately. What started as a small Canadian folk-rock group evolved into a global sensation, largely thanks to Roberts' offbeat lyricism and unorthodox delivery.Crash Test Dummies gained international attention in 1993 with their breakthrough album God Shuffled His Feet, which featured the unforgettable single “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm.” With its oddball characters and haunting melodies, the song struck a strange and perfect chord in pop culture. The album itself, filled with introspective yet whimsical tracks like “Afternoons & Coffeespoons” and “Swimming in Your Ocean,” went triple platinum and earned the band Grammy nominations. The blend of wit, depth, and surrealism set the Dummies apart from their alt-rock peers and earned them a lasting legacy.Now celebrating the 30th anniversary of God Shuffled His Feet, Crash Test Dummies are back on tour, playing to longtime fans and curious newcomers alike. The tour is a celebration not only of that seminal album but of a musical journey that never really stopped. Despite not dominating the charts as they once did, Roberts and company have continued creating music, including recent singles like “Sacred Alphabet” and “Way We Are,” which show that their sense of melody and lyrical oddity is still wonderfully intact.The band's early folk-rock storytelling roots—especially in their debut The Ghosts That Haunt Me—have gradually evolved into an eclectic catalogue that includes elements of gospel, pop, and even Eastern spiritual music. Roberts, who also released a solo mantra album, has always embraced the unexpected. That same spirit fuels the band's new work, which, while quieter in mainstream circles, remains vibrant and artistically rich.Crash Test Dummies continue to prove that thoughtful, quirky, and emotionally resonant music has a home in any era. With Brad Roberts still front and center, the band offers a truly one-of-a-kind experience on stage and in the studio. Fans can find tour dates, merchandise, and new releases on their official website, follow them on Instagram, Facebook, and Spotify to stay connected as they continue their unexpected, enduring journey through the musical landscape.

Giv mig bandet, som fik et hit med en sang, hvis titel er fire ord, som ikke betydernoget - men som bare er en lyd. "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm"? (1994). Det første spørgsmål vi skal have snor i er: Hvad hedder sangeren med "You Give Me Something"? (Quizkampen - 00er ballader). Hvem synger "Somebody That I Used To Know" (Musik med G). Det er en dansk gruppe fra Silkeborg (De 4 ledetråde). Hvem hitter med sangen Kiss i 1988? (Brætspilsquizzen). Vært: Kenneth K.

Pieter Koning vertrok in 1994 met de Luchtmobiele Brigade naar de oorlog in voormalig Joegoslavië. Met Dutchbat I bivakkeerde hij maandenlang in en rondom de enclave Srebrenica. Aan de beruchte poort van Dutchbat in de enclave van Srebrenica sloot Pieter vriendschap met de lokale bevolking. In deze aflevering van Mee op Missie toont Pieter zijn meest dierbare foto uit die tijd, een foto met de toen 14-jarige Elvis. Pieter: 'In mijn ogen waren we daar om jongens als Elvis te beschermen.' Of Elvis de val van de enclave heeft overleefd is voor Pieter tot op de dag van vandaag nog altijd de vraag: ‘Na de oorlog ben ik nog op zoek geweest naar Elvis. Via Facebook. Gewoon om te weten of hij nog leeft. Tot op de dag van vandaag weet ik dat niet. Ik zou ook nog graag een keer teruggaan. Samen met mijn plaatsvervanger van toen, die inmiddels een goede vriend is, en onze partners.'Inmiddels is Pieter alweer jaren werkzaam bij de Politie Amsterdam-Amstelland: ‘Werken bij de politie vind ik ook eigenlijk veel heftiger dan wat ik op uitzending heb meegemaakt. Bij Defensie weet je wat je te wachten staat. Bij de politie neem je 's ochtends afscheid van je vrouw en hoop je dat je 's avonds weer heelhuids thuiskomt. Als veteraan tel ik ook mijn zegeningen, ik ben blij met de erkenning & waardering die ik vanuit de samenleving krijg. Bij de politie ligt dat echt gevoeliger. Wij zijn er om onze burgers te beschermen, maar ook om te straffen.'Tips van Pieter: Peter van Uhm: Ik koos het wapen.Andy McNab: Bravo Two Zero.Wil je het verhaal van Pieter nog eens rustig teruglezen, dan kan dat hier en als je het integraal wil terugzien kan dat ook op YouTube.Pieter's keuzenummer is Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm van de Crash Test Dummies en dat kan je hier helemaal luisterenAndere verhalen van veteranen vind je op Instagram en Facebook of meld je aan voor de VeteranenMail.In gesprek met veteranen over hun uitzendingen en ervaringen.

This week's guest hardly needs an introduction. Crash Test Dummies was one of the most successful Canadian rock bands of the '90s, with off-beat--even morbid--hits like Superman's Song and Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm built on Brad Roberts's unusually deep voice. Roberts--who was touring with the old band to celebrate the 25 year anniversary of the 1994 smash hit album God Shuffled His Feet before a certain pandemic ground things to a halt--joined me to talk about differences between Canada and the United States (where he now resides), Archie Comics and his new quarantine adventures in learning the piano.

The fact that Crash Test Dummies got to the top of the charts with a song that is literally called "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm" is just about the most 1993 thing ever. But when you have to write a song about Michigan, a school that frequently calls itself simply "M", what better starting point than a song with the most Ms per capita of any song ever recorded AND a song that was still sorta popular the last time Michigan was relevant after October 1?
Das charakteristische Summen im Refrain, der Bariton von Sänger Brad Roberts und der eindrückliche Text über den Umgang mit Außenseitern in unserer Gesellschaft machten „Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm“ 1994 zum erfolgreichsten Hit für die kanadische Band Crash Test Dummies.

I catch up with Ellen Reid of Crash Test Dummies. The original lineup announced in September that they would be reuniting to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their album God Shuffled His Feet, which has sold more than 5.5 million copies worldwide. The hit song, "Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm", went to number two. Ellen sang lead on their version of XTC's "The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead", which was featured on the Dumb and Dumber soundtrack.
“Dulcinea” by Toad the Wet Sprocket This fourth album by Toad the Wet Sprocket takes its name, “Dulcinea,” from Don Quixote's love interest in the Cervantes novel. “Toad the Wet Sprocket” was formed in 1986, and takes ITS name from a Monte Python sketch. Consisting of Glen Phillips on guitar and vocals, Todd Nichols on guitar, Dean Dinning on bass, and Randy Guss on drums, Toad the Wet Sprocket was one of the flagship bands of the alternative rock movement of the 90's. While the group broke up in 1998, they began limited tours in 2006, and returned to a full working band by 2011. Dulcinea has a great mix of songs with strong lyrics which tend toward the introspective and spiritual. “Fall Down” The biggest hit from the album. "When will we fall down?" “Inside” A deep cut from the album which highlights the harmonies of the group and great dynamics throughout the song. The band members met in their high school drama club. “Stupid” Another deep cut that scales down to the basics of the group. Guy sees girl, wants to impress her, feels stupid for making an assumption kind of thing. “Nanci” "I can't believe you - you bend your words like Yuri Gellar's spoons." This is a folksy track about meeting Nanci and Loretta. "No, I changed my mind - I'll take Nanci, for you Loretta's fine." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK: “I'll be there for You” by the Rembrandts The theme song from "Friends," which premiered in 1994. STAFF PICKS: “Flaming Heart” by the Meat Puppets Wayne cranks up the energy with his staff pick. With guitar licks reminiscent of Molly Hatchet, the Meat Puppets were around for many years before they settled into their sound which some have called "cow punk." “Streets of Philadelphia” by Bruce Springsteen Brian tones things down with this Grammy award-winning theme to the movie "Philadelphia," for which Tom Hanks won the Best Actor Oscar. “Spoonman” by Soundgarden And the volume cranks up again with Bruce's crunchy staff pick. This song propelled Soundgarden into mainstream popularity, and features Artis the Spoonman playing spoons. “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” by the Crash Test Dummies Rob's pick swings back to a mellow and surprisingly low vocal range song. LAUGH TRACK: “Brothers” by Yngwie Malmsteen. An instrumental neo-classical metal piece finishes us off this week.
It's time again to Toast and Jam! This time we travel to the majestic land of Canada to break down the Crash Test Dummies and their single Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm. Join us as we have too much fun repeating the song title and unleash our most ridiculous accent to date!!

1994. En ukendt dansker får et verdenshit, og britpop begynder at markere sig på hitlisten. Mød Whigfield og Liam Gallagher fra Oasis i Den Store Poptur 2, hvor Prince igen bruger sit efter navn, Wet Wet Wet slår rekorder og titlen "MMM MMM MMM MMM" er svær at undgå. Vært: Niels Fez Pedersen.

Leigh Ann Diefendorf and I are talking about nonsense words as we dissect Crash Test Dummies' Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm and Kid Rock's Bawitdaba. My guest opens up about her embarassing taste in showtunes, watching VH1 instead of MTV, and we also discuss Brad Roberts' bad poetry(?) and Kid Rock's dad owning a dealership(s).
Wal*Mart comes under fire for selling "fat girl" costumes on their website, the creator of "Operation" can't afford surgery, and we take a look at obese crash test dummies. Special Guest: Steve Marek (smcomedy.com, haikumusicreview.net)
Once there was this girl whose favourite player was captain for many many yearsand when they had to sign himshe found that he had left for the red teamShe couldn't quite explain it, he'd always just played here Once there was this boy whoswore one day that he would become captain of the teamand when he finally made ithe saw some other team that was betterAnd so he asked to leave to the grass that seemed greener But both girl and boy were gladFor one kid had it worse than that 'Cause then there was this kid whoseparents made him cheer for the Toronto Maple Leafsand when they watched their team playthey shook and cried all over their rec roomHe couldn't quite explain it, they'd always just sucked there
