He Liked to Feel It

"He Liked to Feel It" is a song by Canadian group Crash Test Dummies and was the first single from their 1996 album A Worm's Life. The song and subsequent video generated some controversy for the band due to the subject matter about a boy, who experimented with different ways of pulling out his own teeth.

[edit] Music video

The music video for the song was the band's most controversial. The video featured the band performing on a New York City rooftop interspersed with scenes of a boy pulling his teeth out in various ways, including tying the tooth to a car, tying the tooth to a stick and throwing it to a dog on the other side of a fence, and tying the tooth to a crane.

As a result of the graphic footage, the video was banned from being played on YTV in Canada and eight shots had to be removed before the video could be shown on MTV. [1]
