As I was rehearsing the song, I found out that most radios edit out part of the last verse of the song, "The Show" with Doug E. Fresh. The part about "Michelle" is always skipped. Well, I looked it up and I found out that he actually speaks French to this girl in an attempt to woo her. That part of the song goes,
Michelle, ma belle.
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble,
Tres bien ensemble.
Now, that part of the song translates to: Are words that go very well together, very well together.
I don't know about you, but I was buggin' out when I found out the man spoke French. I mean it's not that far-fetched being that he was born in South Wimbledom, England which is only about two hours from France. Another thing about Slick Rick is that he wears an eye patch because he was blinded as an infant in his right eye, so he began wearing an eye patch at an early age. Just flexin' my knowledge on Slick Rick...
