songs remembered from just one line

[Human without the bean]

No clue with me. Was it a song from 70's 80's or 90's?

[Jbarrax]

Only the first rap song I ever heard. It was a HUGE hit on campus in the fall of 1979.

Rapper's Delight by the Sugar Hill Gang. I'm not a big fan of rap, but this was a fun tune..and it was before "gangsta rap" came along and glorified thuggery. anyway...

FREE POST.

That can't possibly be rap ..... I can understand the lyrics and there's no fake Brooklyn accent. :P

Off Topic:

It's not a first line, but it's an 80s song, so that's not in the ballpark.

Got it, Spirit Filled Man, I mean Sharp Dressed Man.

Yes you do.

Probably ZZ Top's best known hit.
