The hit that inspired the McDonald's menu song
I remember Chicago radio stations WLS and WCFL dubbed “ But DubYou L S rolled me” and “But C F L rolled me” over the phrase “but the radio rolled me” in the chorus when they played that song. I’m sure other stations did that, too.
Excellent! You can always count on a radio station for some shenanigans.
Tracey Ullman also did a version of this on her debut album. I was likewise obsessed https://youtu.be/0M53VtjltTc?si=X7qllRXgyTDjLS3S
Tracey Ullman's pop music career is so interesting to me! Thanks for pointing me to this cover.
I love this essay *so much* that I don't even want to listen to the actual song. (But I probably eventually will.)
Haha! Thank you, Matt! It was a delight to realize how much of that talent show performance was still kicking around in my brain.
