Ollie & Jerry

Trust me ... You know exactly who Ollie & Jerry are but if I asked you if you had ever heard of them you would look at me like I was out of my mind ... Everybody knows who Ollie & Jerry are ... They just don't realize that they know ... Take my word for it ... You really do know who they are ... Is this starting to get annoying yet ... I think it is so I am going to shut up and get on with it ... This week has been one of those weeks which seems to have been never-ending like the story and just as I was was wondering how I was going to get through the final few hours of Friday afternoon guess what comes blasting out through my speakers thanks to Apple's wonderful iTunes shuffle technology ... Yup ... The ultimate feel-good tune of all time ... Breakin' ... Ain't No Stoppin' Us ... The first thing hearing this joint did was put a smile on my face and suddenly Friday afternoon wasn't looking that bad after all ... The second thing it made me realize was that Breakin' really is an an all-time classic movie ... And then my third reaction was who on earth sung this song ... Well the answer to that of course is Ollie & Jerry but I'm not sure too many people know that so that's why I had to put it out there ... After doing a little research I found out that these guys have worked with everyone from Ray Parker Jr. to the Rolling Stones but they will always be best remembered for this phenomenal pop smash ... Most of us don't even remember them for that though which is why I felt obliged to remind everyone so you don't forget next time ...
