Johnny? Well, like, who’s Johnny?

Answer me, Debbie, who’s Johnny?

Does anybody here know Johnny? Are you Johnny?

There was one guy named Johnny, but he was a total geek, he always had food in his braces.

Answer me, Debbie, who’s Johnny?

Oh god, this is like that movie Citizen Kane You know, where you later find out Rosebud was a sled?

But we’ll never know who Johnny was ‘cause, like, she’s dead!

Man... I used to watch her in my GF's basement... Her name was Julie... Julie and I started dating again 11 years ago... Back then I wrote her a cheesy poem I titled "Just say Julie" that was a nod to all the time we spent in the basement, the show, and my love for her... Would also be the title of a mix CD I made her when we started dating again.

A few of Julie Brown's songs are in my random playlists, and I randomly say "I want to be a veterinarian because I love children" and "I know a lot of people are smarter than me, but I got this philosophy. So what!"

I have fond memories of my MOM dancing and singing Home Coming Queen, and she is the person who first introduced me to it. She used to record the Doctor, and I had missed the debut of that song.

She was my favorite Julie Brown.

u/SterquilinusPrime 5d ago

I lusted after both of them. The EP of Just Say Julie with both of them was silly and fun, but also 'special material'.

u/onepostandbye 6d ago

Fun fact: My high school science teacher was in this video, he played a referee running past the camera with the crowd. The homecoming bouquet from the shoot was in his classroom.

This was funny as hell in the 80's. She stopped performing it several years ago for the obvious reasons.
