"Bustin" is a song by American musician and comedian Neil Cicierega. It was released on March 31, 2015, as the lead single for his third mashup album Mouth Moods .
The song remixes Ray Parker Jr.'s "Ghostbusters", [1] heavily relying on the lyric "bustin' makes me feel good" and repeatedly editing it into various sexual innuendos and references to sleeping. [2] [3] [4] The song's melody is additionally altered and often uses the lyric "yeah yeah yeah yeah" to create a backing vocal hook. [5] The song became a viral meme. [6] OC Weekly praised it among others, describing it as "absolutely brilliant how an entirely new track can be created from the original elements while still containing its fun vibe". [7] "Bustin" was later included on Cicierega's third mashup album Mouth Moods , [8] and is downloadable for free on Cicierega's website. [9]
