do you like Scatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop)? it was sung by a guy who growing up had a stuttering problem, but managed to become a singer.

It was a big hit in late 1994/the first half of 1995, and Scatman John's story was well documented in the media at the time as well as alluded to in the lyrics.

It's a fun song, to say the least. :D I remember hearing it on the radio constantly back in the day.

Also, nice piece of trivia right there. It's amazing what you can accomplish despite everything.
