Rockin' Funnies: Deep, Deep Trouble (1990)

One sure sign that Matt Groening's The Simpsons had become a pop culture phenomenon was the release of the album, "The Simpsons Sing the Blues", released during the winter of 1990-91. Two singles, "Do the Bartman" & "Deep, Deep Trouble", garnered heavy airplay on MTV. The CD featured guest appearances by Joe Walsh (The Eagles), B. B. King, Buster Poindexter, and, on "Deep, Deep Trouble", though not noticable when you listen to the song, DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince (Jeff Townes & Will Smith). And, so, here's  "Deep, Deep Trouble", an attempt by Bart (Nancy Cartwright) at some serious rapping. The lyrics are on the screen for the karaoke crowd.



Haven't we all had bad dreams like that?
