Ed, I understand and appreciate your dedication in tracking down every song to reach the top 40, but this song is execrable. It's perhaps the worst record to ever reach the top 40. Did you ever hear it? It was written and produced by the same hack-for-hire who created "Friday" for Rebecca Black, which sounds like "Stairway to Heaven" when compared to "Chinese Food". lol If you can't get it, consider it a blessing in disguise.

The video is... well, insipid and racist are the first things that come to mind. ;-)

Enjoy! or not.

It does indeed appear that the digital single was pulled, and fairly quickly, due to the charges of racism in the video. But, you know, this song ONLY charted because of video views -- the week it charted it only sold 1,000 copies, and it didn't get ANY airlay at all... all this according to a Billboard article the week it charted.

Another one to add to the list of songs that hit the top 40 and have disappeared never to see a CD release or be available commercially beyond the one or two weeks it was available. A one hit wonder if there ever was one.

Another sought after exclusive in the quest to collect every top 40 hit.
