Whip It (Devo song) [SEP] Introduction
"Whip It" is a song by American rock band Devo from their third album "Freedom of Choice" (1980). It is a new wave and synth-pop song that features a synthesizer, electric guitar, bass guitar, and drums in its instrumentation. The apparently nonsensical lyrics have a common theme revolving around the ability to deal with one's problems by "whipping it". Co-written by bassist Gerald Casale and singer Mark Mothersbaugh, Devo recorded "Whip It" with producer Robert Margouleff at the Record Plant in Los Angeles. Although "Whip It" was released as the second single from "Freedom of Choice", Warner Bros. Records did not expect it to be a hit, due to its nonstandard tempo and strange lyrics.
