Wavin' your banner all over the place!

I probably hear Fat-Bottomed Girls on the radio once or twice/week. But - then - I spent A LOT of time in my car and am almost always tuned into 94.7 The Arrow: The Capital of Classic Rock ("rock without the rules").Henry said:Yeah, seeing as how both songs see so much airplay these days...

Ah, but I'm tuned every friday to a station that plays 80's and 90's pop in a music mix, and they love that song to the tune of once a week, so riposte!
I'll give you this, though - there are a heck of a lot more active Queen fans than Sir Mix-a-Lot fans, so touché.

You only hear BGB on pop stations when they decide to do something "old school." I hear FBG on the classic rock stations all the time.

I don't think liking a single song by an artist constitutes a fan. Off the top of your head, can anyone name another song he had out as a single?

"Baby got BacK," because
1) it's message seems more overall positive (as much as treating women of any sort as sex symbols can be "positive")
2) It disses the Calista Flockhart set and those who would dismiss a woman because she "got back."
3) The writer/singer is less disingenuous. Somehow I think it more likely Sir Mix-a-Lot is attracted women of that sort than Freddie Mercury was attracted to Fat-Bottomed girls (or any other type, for that matter).

... I can remember my father blocking "the MTV" just because he didn't want me seeing the video.

For me, the "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" party game worked-- everyone grab someone you don't know, and sing and dance to each other... we ended up dating for a while after that...
Otherwise, Fat Bottomed Girls is my pick...
