Back when MTV played music videos, artists would do elaborate videos like this because a good video got more airtime so people heard the song more. The actor in this video (the Dad) played a similar character in the movie Animal House.

The actor playing the hard-nosed father played a similar role in 'Animal House' as military cadet commander Neidermeier. At the end of the movie, his character outline was 'Killed In Viet Nam by his own troops. And to add another link, the movie 'House' includes a group of GI's who've gotten hopelessly lost in the jungles of Viet Nam. As they trudge past, one of them says "I told ya we shouldn't have fragged Lieutenant Neidermeier."

I suppose this was their most popular song, but I was always partial to "I wanna Rock!" Of course the most complete realization of any Twisted Sister song and, just possibly, the best cover of any song, ever, would be of course "I'm a Goofy Goober". If you've heard that, you know.

This song was on the Stay Hungry Album, I believe in 1984. Probably their biggest album. If you want a better feel for TWISTED SISTER" the first 2 albums, can't kill rock and roll and under the blade are a little more raw. The second single (video) from this album " I wanna Rock" (which is what the kid says to the father before the guitar chord blows him out the window) was also a funny video. Twisted Sister is often referred to as an 80's band, which is probably because this song being their first major label hit. But on Long Island and the rest of the NY tristate suburban area. Twisted was huge since the 70s, they were the biggest club band, had concerts played live on local radio. They actually had also built up a following overseas, their first album was from England. People who only know them from the 80s lump them in with the hair metal genre. But they actually predate hair metal, they were more like a mixture of garage/biker band/glam /theatrical rock. They were more like KISS, Alice Cooper and the NY Dolls. Infect the founder and guitarist JJ French had auditioned for the KISS predecessor Wicked Lester. As others have commented the "Father " in the video is based on a character in the movie Animal House and played by the same actor. Twisted Sister obviously has a few Movie influences in some of their songs. The clinking Glass Bottles and chant on the song "Come Out and Play" is based on a scene in the 70s gang film the warriors. on the "Stay Hungry Album " is another multi song piece called the "Horror-Teria (The Beginning)' it has 2 sub parts " Captain Howdy" and "Street Justice" which bears a lot of resemblance to the plot of How the Freddy Kruger Character in "Nightmare on Elm Street " came to be. As hard as Twisted Rocks, they also have some really cool ballads; "Your Not Alone" is a love song Dee Snider wrote about his wife, but what is cool is that the other ballads are more about personal feelings when striving for goals , in "the Price" or I believe in You". Obviously Twisted Sister is probably one of my favorite bands , I find that a lot of their songs are about believing in yourself when trying to reach goals. ("Were Gonna make it", The Price" I Believe in you, " I am I'm Me" Stay Hungry) Also their music is great workout music , especially weight training, the rhythm of were not gonna take it is perfect for doing Clean and presses.
