    I knew when you said shaking your butt, that it was going to be EU. This sing still gets me on the dance floor at the club...

    Happy OSF Marvalus!


    Girl, you had to take me back there didn't you? That song was the JAM! Every time that song came on I had to stop whatever I was doing and move. That groove was pumpin!

    LOL!! My daughter asked me about this mess last week because it was on TV on one of those One Hit Wonder shows!!
    They were a HOT MESS!! especially Spike trying to shake what he did not have!

    LOL! But that song just had "party" written in every beat and note, didn't it? I think we'd all be surprised at just how much our mamas did know about what we were doing away at college. Just in case, of course, I still--even today--keep my mouth closed about quite a few things....


    Happy OSF!

    When I was on the radio last year, I used that instrumental all the time. Sometimes I would say something over the air like, " Yall it's getting good to me, let me crank this up, we gon jam for about 10 seconds!" I'd crank it up and count down to 1.
    People would call in out of breath like, "man you got me over jookin and sweating and all that!."



    That was so much fun.

    I was out of college when this came out, but remember laughing at the video and the movie School Daze too. Thanks for a laugh today. :-)

    They got us good with this song. It was an easy way to get a party full of females on the floor showing off our assets. ;)

    Happy OSF! As the state senator in The Wire would often say, 'Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit' ... I'm so ol' school that I still break out and do da Butt out on the dance floor (smile)! Great choice that brought a smile to my face.


    I'm certain that I would never want my mama to hear, see or associate 2 Live Crew with her saintly son!



    peace, Villager

    ::doin the butt...sexy sexy::


    Now that's a good one. Although a tad after my college days, this cut always reminds me of my days at PSU (Party School University) lol. Them were the days!
