This was my favorite song back then. I was 7 years old and kept calling into the highschool radio station trying to use different voices to request them to play it over and over. Still love it. RIP, Falco, we lost you way too young.

RIP. More of my childhood heroes dying this year.
Ryno was a Hall of Famer on and off the field whose love for the game inspired baseball fans everywhere. His legacy will live on in Chicago for generations to come.
May his memory be a blessing.
