Band Name Origins:

  • The members of the band used to live near "Shepherd's Bush" in London. They were also formed in 1991, when the elder George Bush was President of the US. Submitted by: Alan the Ottoman
  • I heard on Howard Stern's show that lead singer Gavin Rossdale said it was a reference to marijuana plants. Submitted by: loki10

Why the Name is Stupid:

  • Naming your band after a typical shrub is kind of dull, and more importantly, I can't look at, or hear, the name without thinking of George W. Bush (or his daddy, for that matter). Submitted by: Jonathan S.

Story about this misheard lyric by: Mel

My best friend and I were in 8th grade when Bush was popular. No one knew who they were at our school really but us. We used to listen to this song on our discman and try to figure out what the heck he was saying. We knew this was not right but we honestly had no clue what he was saying so we just pretended that he was in love with some woman, strangely named Straussie, and laughed about it a lot. Ahh, the days before being able to check the lyrics on the internet.

The Funny Lyrics:
Micky Mouse has grown up a cow

Why They're Funny:
It sounds like pure randomness, but it's a reference to the David Bowie song 'Life On Mars?': 'It's on America's tortured brow/That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow./Now the workers have struck for fame/'Cause Lennon's on sale again.' I laughed out loud when I discovered this.
