Eddie Murphy, Eat Your Heart Out!

Sunday afternoon, I saw a wrestling show, and on it was the debut of a wrestler from Georgia known as Austin Creed, who as you can see as an Apollo Creed gimmick, which is awesome beyond words. Unfortunately, the sound guy was a real dumbass and played the wrong entrance music for him. I can only assume that he was supposed to come out to "Living In America" by James Brown, from the Rocky IV soundtrack, since it was the song performed with Apollo came out for his exhibition fight vs. Ivan Drago. It'd be awesome to see him again and this time come out to the right entrance music.

You may have heard the song on the radio before during a radio station's "80's night" or what have you, but you most likely have not heard the full almost 6 minute version of the song, and maybe not the random line where James sings, "Eddie Murphy, eat your heart out!" If you don't know the story, I'd have to assume that James is taking a jab at Eddie due to the James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub Party and especially the spoof of him done in the all-time classic comedy movie, Eddie Murphy's Delirious, a show that thankfully was finally released on DVD earlier in the year. If you haven't seen it, you really need to; it has to be the best comedy routine I've EVER seen, no lie. Anyway, I imagine that James was PO'ed with Eddie's comments, although admittedly, he CAN be hard to understand when he speaks in a normal conversation (there was a VH1 show about him, and he was subtitled!)

I know that there are many awesome and funky as shit James Brown tunes to upload and this is more of a song where James somewhat spoofs himself, it's perfect after seeing Austin Creed on Sunday afternoon.
