"The Rubberband Man" is a song recorded by American vocal group #theSpinners. The song, written by producer #ThomBell and singer-songwriter #LindaCreed, originated because of Bell's son Mark, who was being teased by his classmates for being overweight. Intended to improve his son's self-image, the song eventually evolved from being about "The Fat Man" to "The Rubberband Man". The last major hit by the Spinners to feature #PhilippéWynne on lead vocals.
