How can you say “Goin' Down to Rio” is almost identical when it's got those crazy wah-wah effects? That's like saying “Ice Ice Baby” is almost identical to “Under Pressure”, and we all know Vanilla Ice's position on that:

“Theirs goes, 'Ding ding ding dingy ding-ding.' Ours goes, 'Ding ding ding ding dingy ding-ding.'”

Was it? You don't have to lie to me, Davy.

I had the same reaction as you when I stumbled across this single at an old record shop. What th—? How was THIS covered up for so long???
