I've told this story before it's funny so I'll repeat it... It was the early 2000s and I heard a song on the radio where a man made a bunch of funny sounds with his voice and the only lyrics I remembered were "I'm the scat man". I was interested to see what else he made...
I went on to kazza and search "scat man", found a video I assumed was a music video and downloaded... Several hours later (56k modem)...
My childhood was lost forever.
