El DeBarf

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

Hey, remember El Debarge? Well, he was arrested yesterday on vandalism and drug charges.

Hey, remember when “Rhythm of the Night” by El Debarge was your favorite song for most of your childhood?

Hey, remember when you had mono freshman year of college and you were all alone in your dorm room one night watching Barry Gordy’s The Last Dragon on cable, and then for some reason, within the movie, the music video for “Rhythm of the Night” started playing and it was the first time you ever realized that El Debarge wasn’t a beautiful woman like you’d always thought, but instead was a scary, waifish, rat-tranny? Hey, and remember when that made you start screaming? (Hey, remember it was also your 19th birthday?)

PS: Do you think it was fate that I discovered the 21st century version of El Debarge?
