I feel like this song and “Groove is in the Heart” were the official start of the 1990s sound
WOTS HE LIOKE? WOTS HE LIOKE ANYWAAY?
I am not pressing play. I heard this song a month ago and it would stop playing in my head for a week.
Gigalo.
Sucka!
They played this one a lot at my local skating rink.
Does "buffalo stance" mean anything?
I love this song! My sister and I used to jam to it all the time. Her brother, Eagle Eye Cherry, has one of the best music videos ever (IMO) with "Save Tonight." It's a great song, too.
Fun fact(s)
She was once a member of The Slits
and growing up she lived in the same building Talking Heads lived in.
I remember back when it came out that my dad was certain it was a remake. I’ve not seen any evidence of that and am not sure why he thought that.
anyone have a clue why he thought that?
