NO BUNNY MAN


I don't think that is the Buffalo Stance.

I am pretty sure a Buffalo Stance is where you're standing around with your arms folded and looking cool. I'll bet Youtube has the answer. I should probably look before posting, but I don't really care what a Buffalo Stance is.

All I know is that I heard this song every Saturday morning for about a year at the roller rink. It taught me what a hi-hat and tambourine were and what a DJ did. It was also the first time I was aware of British people rapping. As this was only a few months after discovering that rap music existed, this was a major revelation for me. This song, along with Bobby Brown's "All On Our Own" from the Ghostbusters sequal completely ruled my world for a long time and confused my little mind.

Listening back to it now, I'm pretty sure I was mostly just drawn to the super fat keyboard thing before the choruses and repeated at the end with that chorusy guitar line. Also, the chorus is undeniable (and does not actually say "bunny man" but I always remembered it as such as a tie-in to the Ninja Turtles and Usagi Yobjimbo.)

I don't know about just giving all that credit to Tambourine when Triangle is so making that part happen.

Fucking Tambourine.
