Rude Box

[Nummy]

Robbie's new song Rudebox...the singing bit on it reminds me a song from 80's/early 90's.

Any clues?

[Nummy]

nevermind....i've answered my own question!!!

but just in case anyone was wondering...it's Sly & Robbie's "Boops (Here to Go)" from 1987.

:o)

TA- I was just wondering too

[scatty mare]

That's the one! I've been racking my brain for all of 10 minutes trying to think what it reminded me of. I'm going for a lie down.

its a blatant rip-off isnt it ?

[scatty mare]

You're right, Mattk. If I were Sly or Robbie, I'd be rubbing my hands with glee right now.

As you can see, it is a sample from that very song so Robbie has permission to use it.
