Like a Shello.
19
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:36.519
That's why You. Sun Brooks and Down had the number
20
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:38.400
one country song with that Ain't no Way to Go?
21
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:47.480

30
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.120
on the bus. Dennis Hopper, he's the bad guy. He's
31
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:26.919

00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.800
See they're only like six cars in Paris at the time. Now,
41
00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:01.000
if you read Georgia O. Willi's book nineteen eighty four, yeah,
42
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:03.960

86
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:17.040

created the TV show in Living Color. Now, Keenan he
172
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:33.519

Rob Platis. He was born in Munich, West Germany in
180
00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:10.600
nineteen sixty five. Now Rob and Fan Morvin are Fab Morvin. Yeah,
181
00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:12.360
they were working as models and they had their own
182
00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:14.840
band out there in Munich. Now they got signed to
183
00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:17.399
a record deal. They got a really big advance and everything.
184
00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:19.759
Then when we went to record that first album, found
185
00:11:19.799 --> 00:11:21.440
out they wouldn't be singing on it. No, they were
186
00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:24.480
just the face of Millie Vanilli, Charles Shaw and Tommy John.
187
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:27.320
They'd be doing the singing. Well, Robin Fab they weren't
188
00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:29.000
gonna put up with that, so they stormed out of
189
00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:31.799
the studio. Problem was, though, they'd blown all that advanced
190
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:33.240
money and they had no way to pay it back,
191
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:34.879
so they had to go ahead and go along with it.
192
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.399
That worked, I mean they did sell ten million albums
193
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:39.360
in the one in Grammy. Of course, it blew up
194
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:40.679
in their face when it got out that they were
195
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:43.799
just lip syncing. Nineteen ninety eight, Robbie died from alcohol
