“Weird Science“ is a song by American new wave band Oingo Boingo. Written by frontman Danny Elfman, it is the theme song to the Weird Science film and television series. It was released on the film’s soundtrack, as well as Oingo Boingo’s fifth studio album, Dead Man’s Party (1985), in a longer mix. The song reached No. 45 on the US Billboard Hot 100, No. 21 on the US Dance Club Charts, and No. 81 in Canada. It is Oingo Boingo’s most successful single.
Recording
The song was written spontaneously by Elfman in the car, while driving home to Los Angeles, after a phone call from director John Hughes asking him to write a song for his movie of the same name. Elfman claimed to have “heard the whole thing in [his] head“ by the time he ran home to his studio to record his demo.
