Actually that song was inspired by the Mel Brooks film Young Frankenstein. At one point in the movie when Gene Wilder (Frankenstein) first meets Igor, Igor begs Frankenstein to "walk this way" and he starts sidling/walking in a weird way. Gene Wilder does the same.
Aerosmith wrote the song "Walk This Way" in tribute to the film, basically.

A tribute that has nothing to do at all with the original film.
GENIUS. THEY'LL MAKE MILLIONS!!!!
Seriously calling bullshit on that. Also, I'll bet you're unaware that that song is way older than the Run DMC remix, and that their career was basically over until they did a co-tour with Run DMC. And some jerk had to go kill Jam Master Jay, what the fuck. World, get out.
Back on topic:
I actually understood most songs were about love and girls and stuff at a very young age, and eschewed almost all popular music for that reason. For the longest time the *only* "pop" (not counting classical/jazz/The Beatles) CD I owned was The President's Of The United States of America's eponymous album. It wasn't until 2002 when I got into Radiohead did that change.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
