JOE doesn’t have the exact figures at hand but if we were to guess the exact number of views that the classic Will Ferrell/Christopher Walken ‘Blue Oyster Cult: Behind the Music’ SNL skit has on YouTube then we would say it’s close to 1,372.,943,001.

We all know that legendary producer Bruce Dickinson has a great ability to find “what appears to be a dynamite sound” and that he puts his “pants on just like the rest of you, one leg at a time…….except, when my pants are on, I make gold records.”

We’ll never question Bruce Dickinson because he knows that this dog is going places.

For the two people in the world that haven’t seen this skit then here it is.
