    How can you vote for the greatest Beasties song ever made?  It samples 4 Sticks and Sweet Leaf…. Haters.. all of ya…
    I can vote for them because I don’t like their music. That’s how. 
    See where I wrote “haters”…. There was no need to reply then.
    It was the haters comment that provoked me to reply to your rhetorical question. Im willing to own it. 😂

    Beasties are so much better, to me

    I fell asleep trying to listen to that.  I'll try again tomorrow.

    Here's another opener/debut that I really like, maybe more apt to keep one awake... or wake the dead, lol

    Overplayed at every wedding or dance I've ever been to. I may have enjoyed it yet in my early teens, but now, no way. Songs are so easily ruined like that.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I really like this album, but Definitely Clean would have been a far better opener imo.

    I considered that one, but as Foxy Lady was track one on the UK version. I ended up leaving it off the list.
