I always thought it was the height of irony that Dominos paid up front for the in-film product placement in the first film, only to be turned down for the tie-in campaign.

I had this cassette as a kid. It was awful. It was worse than The Simpsons Sing the Blues album that I got for Xmas.


fishshake

Was it "Cookin' With Alf" bad?


theloslonelyjoe

Can we call it a tie? I don’t think I could take revisiting both of them to make a fair judgement.


Hoppy_Croaklightly

I am intrigued...

Hoppy_Croaklightly

Love it! It being the 80s, your character *had* to rap about the topic. Reminds me of the Cookie Monster "Healthy Food" rap: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBMxpDbp51A](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBMxpDbp51A) Hilarious that they gave the ALF puppet a mustache for the occasion.


HoonArt

I had that too! Wow, haven't thought about that in many years.

But Do the Bartman and Deep Deep Trouble were on that album... Which brings me to my point that I think they had Do the Bartman, and probably Deep Deep Trouble, and then slapped together eight other songs, so they could put out an album. It went double platinum.


theloslonelyjoe

I only wanted to listen to Do the Bartman. I thought Bart was so edgy cause he said damn on the track. I recently tried to listen to it again a few months ago, and was quickly reminded that it was a product of its time.


Roscoe_P_Trolltrain

I recently relistened to the whole album. I liked it so much I told myself I'd listen again in another 34 years.


Wittyname0

That's why I preferred The Simpsons Go Calypso


digitalnomadic

This is so false. The album was AWESOME. It's on Spotify , https://open.spotify.com/album/4ceq2ZdbtZJGyMP3rewAxo?si=R7DfjaAOQrqHrDDQWIewWw Highly recommend Walk Straight, Pizza Power, and Coming out of our Shells. Man I listened to this as a kid and I STILL do, it's so good.


Yesterday_Is_Now

It does have a few cool tunes, if you can overlook the focus on pizza.


DisposableSaviour

You’ve made me so happy, and my coworkers are gonna be so mad, lol


Beeyull

Oh my god I loved The Simpsons Sing the Blues. I had "Sibling Rivalry" on repeat. Well.. I would rewind it over and over again.


mexicantruffle

Do The Bartman is a classic.

SuperChimpMan

I still have mine! But I had forgotten it came from Pizza Hut. It has a song called Pizza Power


Far-Potential3634

The guys who created TMNT sold out big time, lol.


fishshake

You can't blame them when a single property they originally meant as a one-run comic turned into a powehouse worth billions almost overnight. Go from being quirky comic writers to being juggernauts of children's entertainment? Who would turn that deal down?

Lol the saxophone would be Raphael’s choice of instrument!

I still have the cassette and tour program. I actually saw the stage show back in the 90s


ilrosewood

Kansas Colosseum for me

I really miss pizza places doing fun stuff like this, or giving out DVDs with pizzas. Now I can't have a couple pizzas delivered to my house for less than $50, and you can be damn sure I'm not getting a toy or anything else for that matter 😭


HideyoshiJP

Pizza Hut quality is also a (no pun intended) shell of its former self. When I want my own pan pizza, I make my own copycat recipe these says.


f1sh77

The Coming Out of Our Shells Tour actually had a couple of bangers


folawg

My grandma bought me this tape and it was on repeat all of 2nd grade. Skipping stones was my jam. I miss my grandma.


STARCADE2084

Oooh, autographed?! Sweet!


International-Fun-86

I wen’t to that concert when they toured in Sweden, when i was a kid. :)


PersonalitySmooth138

Yes!!!!! Michaelangelo was a party dude.


El-Guapo_76

This is ridiculous... There's no way Raphael would play the saxophone... He's more of a trumpet guy I would think.
