Tom Tom Club

It was like pop R&B, but in a quite uncool way, said Hansen.

Hansen and his co-producer, Joe Belmati, knocked out a remixed version of the single in two hours, frankensteining instrumentals from a broad selection of samples, including everything from the Tom Tom Club's Genius of Love to Games by Chucky Booker, UFO by ESG, and a couple other songs for good measure.

While Hansen understood English, he paid almost no mind to the lyrics while constructing the instrumentals.

You can guess the rest of the story from here.

Kind of.

And I was only able to pick out.

So the one sample like everybody focuses on is the the drum line is sampled from the song Genius of Love by Tom Tom Club.

Some people will know Tom Tom Club as two members of the Talking Heads when they form their own band.

But looking elsewhere at the top 10 of that week.

Number 10, Tom Tom Club with wordy rapping hood.

Nine, Bob Marley and the Wailers with No Woman, No Cry.

Eight, Smokey Robinson, Being With You.

It's got...

Who else? Tom Tom Club, Cue Lazarus and Brian Eno.

What's the, is it from a film or just soundtrack? The

film is called Married to the Mob.

Really good, too.

So I like I like that they use fantasy because it's the song Fantasy by Mariah Carey samples music from the Tom Tom Club from the 80s.

So I think that that choice is good because it's.

it sort of bridges that gap.

I'm going to bring it from this Vanderpump.

And he was like, oh, my God, I wanted to go to Tom Tom Club and get her merch.

So we were like both aligned on Vanderpump because we're so close to those where the hospital is.

And so we're down there hanging out and just randomly Tim and Chip are talking about Six Flags.

Many different artists have sampled Mariah's song Fantasy, but funnily enough, the original song contains a sample from the 80s.

The song got its baseline from the 1981 hit Genius of Love by the Tom Tom Club.

Wow.

I can't believe I got that wrong.

Yeah.

Right? How many songs sample Tom Tom Club's Genius of Love?

Oh, I think it's one of the more...

Oh, my gosh.

after this, yeah, it's the same.

There's like a year of break time where they didn't know what they were doing.

And so Tom Tom Club happens, Genius of Love.

David Byrne gets into working on his first solo project that's for a show that's like a live theater show.

And about how they just had different names.

This one had Sinead O'Connor, New Order, Debbie Harry, and Tom Tom Club.

Wow.

So even though the movie wasn't so great, at least it had a soundtrack with all the right people, for me.

Yeah.

Mariah Carey fantasy like the Tom Tom Club because they sing don't they like what you gonna do when you get out of jail I'm gonna have some fun

yeah

what do you consider fun fun natural fun

oh yeah in

a more of a sexy way like what you gonna do when you get out of jail? I'm gonna do a remix.

Tom Tom Club have been sampled so much.
