Thursday 14 February 1991 — Valentine's Day, and Psygnosis release DMA Design's Lemmings on the Amiga. Lee and Mark dig into the day: The Simpsons' Do The Bartman at number one, shop prices in…
Mark WebbHostFirst, though, what was on the radio? Top of the singles chart that week was a cartoon.
"Do the Bartman," uh, by The Simpsons, uh, had climbed from two to one and pushed the KLF's "3 AM Eternal" down a place with Nomad's "Devotion" at three.
Most of us hadn't even seen the show yet because it was mainly on satellite over here, but Bart was on every pencil case going.
Have a listen.
Yo.
Hey, what's happening, dude? I'm a guy with a rep for being rude.
Terrorizing people wherever I go.
It's not intentional, just keeping the flow.
Tips and test scores to get the thing moving.
Oh, I love that because it's genuinely a decent tune and not just a novelty cash-in.
It's also very funny that a yellow cartoon kid is keeping the KLF off number one with a dance routine nobody could do, and on Valentine's week of all weeks, Britain's big romantic gesture was Bart Simpson telling everyone to eat their shorts.
