THE LEE CORSO SLO JAM: LC FREAKS YOU LIKE BEANO COOK CAN'T.

PrintLife must be understood backwards; but... it must be lived forward.
---Dreary Scandinavian guy.
Dreary, but accurate; sometimes, riding along in the headlong chaos of life, we lose track of the paths we didn't take mostly because we had no idea where we were going.
Everyone makes choices, Lee Corso included. Just after the folding of the USFL, Corso faced a choice: become a commentator for ESPN, or pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a slo-jam mogul. His 1989 Arista Records release, ...for the lover in you, may not have sold more than thirty copies in the United States, but it did do two things:
1. It hit #34 in Turkey, mostly thanks to the daring cover art and Corso's resemblance to a prominent cleric.
2. It shows us that all of us, at one time or another, try and fail in the name of love.
For the lover in you.
Listen if you dare to Lee Corso's take on Teddy Pendergrass's "Love T.K.O." Ladies, our lawyers would like you to know that we hold no liability for pregnancies that may spontaneously occur during the sexy listening of this song.

I know it sounds like Barry White… but it’s Lee Corso baby.

A singer we know who can’t hold a job thanks to some pesky “sexual assault” charges. Whatever. We paid him seven dollars and a bottle of Midori to do it.

oh my god… my ears are bleeding, i’m blinded now… the aura of big LC has destroyed my senses. please for the love of all that is good and holy… put a bigger disclamer before people see the web page at work!!!!

I’m predicting that Deadspin links this and causes another crash. Hope that server is ready!

Holy shit piss and fukk that’s hilarious. I’m unable to say anything more without knocking it down.

Beautiful.
When does the 2nd single on the album drop? There’s a rumor that it will be “Su Su Sudio” by Lou Holth…

I have a free lunch on my desk here in Raleigh if anyone wants it.
I won’t be needing it now.
Thanks.

Slo Jam Lyrics Dept.:
The dude who sang that song and the background singers sounded legit. Great job. My favorite lyrics:
“…ain’t talking about Beano Cook, though I heard he is some kind of debonaire fellow….”
I never thought I would hear Beano Cook & debonaire in the same sentence….

Perfect concept and flawless execution: dare I say even better than the Orgeron song, the previous standard of lyrical excellence?
That has to be the best use ever of $7 and a bottle of Midori that did not involve the use of condoms.

Thanks a lot Orson…
That crap knocked the Orgeron and Ms Peachez songs right out of my head…
only now I can’t stop thinking about 2 Lee Corsos…. shudder…. ewww

Which once again proves my theories:
Germans Love David Hasselhoff
Turks Love Lee Corso
and Corso has a Baby’s Arm!
Great stuff!

Hilarious. Now we can just wait for Rece Davis to drop a reference to it this weekend.

“Mascot head don’t lie now, baby…” — sheer, unalloyed awesomeness. Soon to be co-opted by mascots everywhere.

If there is a God in heaven he will answer my prayer and this solid gold hit will be played on College Gameday Saturday morning

Waiting on the requisite YouTube video featuring this song…

Lee Corso… too freaky baby! Bet Lee gets a kick out of this…
Keep the funny stuff coming.

This should replace Big and Rich as the new College Gameday opening song.

you know, you’re a real jerk for making that song.
by fat lenny on Oct 18, 2006 10:51 PM EDT reply actions
That song’s greater than the Orgeron song. Orson’s the heir apparent to the deceased Barry White and insane scientologist Isaac Hayes.

This song is stuck in my head for the forseeable future. Thanks a lot.

It’s about time…this song is going to be #1 in the hood!
Mascot head don’t lie baby!
