Okay. The Humpy Dance has reminded me of another.. My Mind's Playin' Tricks On Me.. Who sings that, Roem? I forget! Also, the guys who sang, "Strobelight" had another big hit around that time...

P.S. Okay. I remember. The Ghetto Boys sang that song.. They had a few good ones...

I think Stroblite honey was by Blacksheep. They also did "The choice is yours". Lines from it can be heard in Fatboy Slim's new song. "you can get with this or you can get with that"

The Choice Is Yours. Yes.. I loved that song! What at cool time for music. I know, it was a little bit into the 90s - but the style was still 80s. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

I actually think that is a line from a Whodini tune. May be wrong. Roem will know for sure. Kind of thinking it was either "Five minutes of Funk" or "Friends". Roem???

Shhh. Don't say the "Sampling" word. Remember the heated discussion that took place last time that was mentioned? <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

The Geto Boys (that's GETO BOYS, by the way) sang My Mind's Playin' Tricks On Me.

The Geto Girls (yes, that's GETO GIRLS) sang a parody of that same song--My Man's Playin' Tricks On Me.

That is "Weapon of choice". I'm not sure off hand if they say anything else. :confused:
