"Baby got Back" or "Fat-Bottomed Girls?"

[DungeonmasterCal]

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...

OMG yes.... I remember me and this one very cute redhead singing the parts of that song back and forth to each other while some 200 people formed a circle around us and cheered us on....

good times..good times....

It was close, but of the two Fat Bottomed Girls gets more play time in my mp3 playlist than Baby Got Back. of course, I still remember going and picking up the cassette single of Baby Got Back, and all the dances in school, so I got some fond memories of that song. But Sir Mixalot's got nothing on Queen.

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?

Beepers
Somethin' 'bout My Benzo
and one of my favorites:
My Hooptie

Of course, I have no idea if those were released as singles, so maybe that doesn't answer the question. But those are the Mix-a-Lot tunes I know (titles, only) off the top of my head.

Buddy you're a young man, hard man
Shoutin' in the street

Y'got blood on your face,

Wavin' your banner all over the place!

And that brings us around to the belated birthday gift I got in the mail yesterday, the soundtrack to the RHPS on cd. So of course I've listened to it all day here at work. I once went as Meatloaf's character in the movie to a showing of Rocky Horror.

There was another Rocky Horror reference today in the Gaming and Significant Others thread when someone quoted "In just seven days...."

ahh.... serendipity, indeed.

"Baby got BacK," because

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).

Why? Freddie was bisexual, which is really not the same as being gay.

Freddie was trisexual.

he'd try anything once. twice or more if he liked it.

Are you telling me Spinal Tap was disingenuous?

Big Bottom
The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'
That's what I said
The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand
Or so I have read

My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo
I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo

Big bottom, big bottom
Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em
Big bottom drive me out of my mind
How could I leave this behind?

I met her on Monday, twas my lucky bun day
You know what I mean
I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day
You know what I mean

My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights
Big game is waiting there inside her tights, yeah

Big bottom, big bottom
Talk about mud flaps, my girl's got 'em
Big bottom drive me out of my mind
How could I leave this behind?

Yes, my personal favorite single was his remix of Black Sabbath's Iron Man:

You could strike a match in my hand, to black to tan,
Heavy metal rythm from a one man band.
Bust my knuckle in a junkyard scuffle,
Whippin advesaries with my brass belt buckle.

And there was the less then mildly annoying Square Dance Rap as well as being featured on the Judgment Night soundtrack, teaming with Mudhoney to create Freak Momma

Oh, and my vote goes to Baby got back.
