Push th' Little Daisies

"Push th' Little Daisies" is a song by American band Ween, appearing on their third album, Pure Guava, in 1992. It was released as a single in 1993. A music video was released, featuring Dean and Gene Ween eating various foods while fooling around (with cuts to a beautiful girl) and interspersed with them performing the song. The video (which replaced the word "shit" with a sample of Prince squealing—taken from his song "Alphabet St.") and the song gained exposure after being critiqued on the MTV show Beavis and Butt-head.[2]

Critical reception edit

The A.V. Club said, "there's something undeniable about the madness of "Push th' Little Daisies", with its roots in alternative-nation open-mindedness, pop subversion, and lots of drugs. It's crazy catchy, too, even as it's deliberately annoying."[4] The song is mentioned in the book 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die.
