Back in ‘83, the late, great Rodney Dangerfield had a minor (which in those days meant ubiquitous) novelty hit with Rappin’ Rodney. I brought it up to Rachel tonight while we were having flashbacks watching Beat Street, and she didn’t remember it, which made me think a lot of other people might not, either. Thankfully, it’s on YouTube. Even when I was eight, I loved that line, “I got a kidney shaped pool with a stone in it.” (via NightTracks).
Related, at least in my mind: Billy Crystal’s “You Look Marvelous” from 1985.
