rdfs:comment
  • "I Got a Name" is a song written by Norman Gimbel and Charles Fox. It was first recorded by American folk singer Jim Croce for his 1973 album of the same name. It would become one of the final songs recorded before his tragic death in plane crash, but was not released until three month later. It would go on to reach #10 in the U.S. singles chart. In "Ready, Willing, and Disabled", Mort Goldman sings "I Got a Name" to a muzak rendition that plays over the loudspeaker of his pharmacy while Peter Griffin sneaks behind the counter to steal steroids for Joe Swanson.
  • Lena Horne sings the Jim Croce hit song "I Got a Name" in episode 111 of The Muppet Show. She pets Muppy while she sings, and Gonzo, Fozzie, George, Mildred, Hilda, and Brewster all sing backup. The set is a deserted train station in the mountains.
