Song #29- A Song From Your Childhood

Sir Mix A Lot "Baby Got Back"



Yes, you read that right. "Baby Got Back" is a song from my childhood. When I was 6 or 7, I was getting into a van with family friends from Minnesota. When the ignition started, my sister and I were settling in our seats when we hear "I like big butts.." on the radio. We immediately get into a fit of giggles. We thought it was funny that a guy was rapping about his love for big butts (you also have to take in the fact that my sister and I were very young... and I bet you all remember that at that age, anything that had to do with butts was comical). Now that I'm older and wiser, "Baby Got Back" is not giggly-funny anymore. But I will always be reminded of the first time I heard it and how it made me laugh.
