      His name is Taco Ockerse. He did a cover of Puttin’ on the Ritz in the 80s. That’s it, that’s the whole joke. sigh I’ll never get those 5 minutes back.

        You say that now, but some day you’ll be at a social gathering with a bunch of GenX-ers and Boomers, and you’ll need an anecdote that they will both relate to, in a way that won’t infuriate either of them…and you’ll have this particular musical trivia fact, in your back pocket.

        You can go ahead and thank me, when that happens.

      If I tell you (especially in the title or the meme itself), it still won’t be funny to you. But it would also be less funny to the people who DO know. So the math just doesn’t work out, for me to mention his name.

      So do a reverse image search or something, then come back.
