"I Predict" is a song by the Los Angeles new wave band Sparks.
The group promoted the single with an eclectic performance on Saturday Night Live.
[3] A music video made to accompany the single featured Ron Mael in drag doing a striptease dance performance in a Los Angeles nightclub while Russell lip syncs the lyrics to the song.
The music video is sometimes erroneously credited to David Lynch,[4] but the book Talent is an Asset: The Story of Sparks credits the video to be done by Steve and Doug Martin in the style of Lynch.
[5] Due to the more "mature & inappropriate sexual themes" & "adult nature" of the video, MTV usually only played it during nightly hours or at midnight.
