[Guy Incognito]

showing my age here - fight for your right in 86/87 - i was 13.

[HiPlnsDrftr]

Same here, "Fight for your right" in 1986 when I was 13. Riding in the back of my Mom's Station wagon.

Upon hearing the song, I immediately kicked out the back window and bolted from the car....nah just kidding. :)

[Laver1969]

The New Style...I remember asking a friend who is that? My buddy told me it's the Beastie Boys and they're WHITE! :eek: 1986.

[cj hood]

slow & low.......it was on one of those rap mix tapes kmart used to sell in the 80s........

[Friis gal]

It must be Body Movin' [Fatboy Slim Remix] (y)
But they have played Fight for your right sooo much, it could be that,
but Body Movin' is the first I can remember...

[Chad the Lad]

No Sleep Till Brooklyn, when i was nine at my cousins house, oh yeah!!!!!

[kleptomaniac]

CH-CHECK IT OUT!!!! (!)

i saw the video and i was like "wow! who are those hot guys?!" :eek: (y)
then i thought, "i'm sooo in love with the one with the deep voice" <3


but then again, at my birthday party/sleepover a few years back, i remember we did karaokee and me and my friend sang "fight for your right" but that was before i cared about who these "beastie boys" were :rolleyes: :D

[cAm]

Posse In Effect

[Chicka B]

Well, technically it was No Sleep Til Brooklyn. Because when I was little my dad would jam a bunch of music, mostly rock. But I remember hearing No Sleep Til Brooklyn when I was 4, and remember it because it was different from everything else he played. But the first song I heard, and was actually consious of them being the Beastie Boys was Intergalactic. :cool:

[BGirl]

That would have to be Fight for Your Right, most memorably being blasted out of my little brother's bedroom much to my annoyance :D

(c. 1987)

I heard it when it was first released. They were playing it on college radio at the time. I remember hearing Grandmaster Flash before that too. I didn't label it either as rap or hip hop music at the time, that's how new it was. But now it's old school and so commercial and I've heard it before. The same station who played them rarely touches rap now, except on their street beat show, that was the rock show I heard both on at the time.

[Lord Piff]

She's On It.... Friday Night Videos... :cool:

[Mr. Smacktackle]

Sure Shot

because it's first on Ill Comm...

[jackrock]

[Mr. Smacktackle]

My older bro had the album, and he said: if you want some good music, check this out!! :cool:

[mc_bunsey]

Mine was when I was like 11 and I saw the intergalactic video on mtv

it has everything - octopuses, robots and funky jumpsuits. The recipe for a perfect video in an 11 year olds eyes!

[mellow]

my mom bought license to ill in october 1988 when she was in the 5th month pregnant with me. so it was a song from LTI for sure. :p

[maggz]

[talita]

here in my ghetto the bboys took a long time to play on the radio... it was in 1990.. sure it was played before, but the "SUCCESS" came only in 90's.

[djc1980]

i saw so whatcha want on beavis and butthead

[razmatazern]

i'm not completely sure what the first song i heard was but i do remember going to my grandparents house in pennsylvania and watching mtv for the first time when i was 5. i saw the fight for your right video and jumped on the couch yelling "YOU GOTTA FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO PAAARTY!"

[LexMoon]

Ditto, I was 6 I think. it was brand new when I heard it.

[alexandra]

Intergalactic, the video, on Mtv, in '99. fell in love with all the crazy moves, and stuff i didn't get.

[ggirlballa]

[dave790]

Dope Little Song

How'd you happen to hear that one first?

[nodoubtTIF]

I think it was fight for your right or brass monkey.

[nodoubtTIF]

The New Style...I remember asking a friend who is that? My buddy told me it's the Beastie Boys and they're WHITE! :eek: 1986.

I had something similar to that happen to me. I didn't find out they were white for quite some time though.

[Bobtwi]

BeastieGroove-1985 I think.Might of been 86.

[laurie_hammy]

How'd you happen to hear that one first?

Was thinking the same thing.

[Junker]

How'd you happen to hear that one first?

I was about to ask him the same thing :confused:

C'mon dude! The first Bboys song you heard was a b-side?? pffffffff

[plasmic]

First of all, hello. Just registered. My first song was 'Fight For Your Right'. I was about 9 years old, and my sister had recorded the video. I know I about wore out the rewind button watching that video all the time.

[Shadbells]

slow & low.......it was on one of those rap mix tapes kmart used to sell in the 80s........
I remember those. I actually bought a few. The tapes I bought were called Rap Masters (whatever number you bought) and then, The Best of (The Jam, The Bad, etc.)

My first Beastie song was "She's On It". Unless I heard them before that and didn't realize it.

[KevG]

It was 1984. My friend Victor Rodriguez gave me a tape that had "Beastie Groove" on it. Or was it... It is the one where they kick DMC and Burzootie out of the studio. "Your just fessin' man, I don't even wanna hear about it, you're just fessin'..." Anyway, I found the tape last year and put it on CD. Other songs on it were "King of Rock" and "You Talk Too Much" by Run DMC, a couple "Roxanne Roxanna" songs, some Inspector Gadget song.. I actually listened to it the other night. It's hard to believe I've had it for 22 years now.

[Shadbells]

"Roxanne Roxanna" .

That just brought me back.

[titou lapraline]

Probably body movin' or maybe...intergalactic...

[Dedos]

My first B-Boy song was either Girls or Egg Raid...cant member it was so long ago...Holla!!

[wrongwayandugg]

I was high with my bf who was, at that time, my bff.

[Weezman]

SHE's ON IT!!!

:cool:
Krush Groove, movie!! They should have played the entire song,...haters!

[Randetica]

[AdRockGRL]

Uh Damn!!! It was Fight For Your Right....and I was 4...clapping my hands for King AdRock (thinking "GO ON SHOUTING!")!!!

[wrongwayandugg]

i did the same thing with dope little song. that was my first.

[Funkyfreshgrape]

sabotage!!!:cool: :D i heard it when i was like 3 or somethin'!!!

[chickinwhite]

Thought it was intergalactic but it was really fight for your right to party. Heard it on the way to baseball game when i was 12. We got the coach to play the song probably 4 times in a row. At that time I thought they were just a one hit wonder, then I saw Intergalactic and Hello Nasty changed my life.

[AdRockGRL]

then I saw Intergalactic and Hello Nasty changed my life.

I love your way of talking!!!! :D (y)

[ggirlballa]

without knowing it was them : brass monkey

knowing it was them: 3Mc's & 1 DJ

[Videodrome]

Paul Revere, hanging out at the basketball courts with older neighborhood kids in 86'

i was 8.

[chechina]

No Sleep Til Brooklyn when I was five.

I remember thinking, "Why are they making fun of Run-DMC?!" and I hated them so. My hate has softened over the years, though.

[Justin]

unlike some of you who are lying:mad: ..(i heard ffyr at age 2)..common.

Id like to say something from lti or pb...but i wasn't exposed to alot of music until the late 90's (tv sucked where im from)

I got hooked when I heard Alive. I remember i was watchin trl with all these crappy pop videos and they debuted the video one day on the show....and i was like "woah"

Ever since that day in 99 I have listened to the beasties everyday. If there is a day in there that i didnt listen to them im sure I at least sang a lyric during the day.

I think I need professional help im so addicted.

[Pootytang]

My grandmother used to sing "Boomin' Granny" to me while rocking me to sleep.

[liberty_a320]

The first Beastie Boys song I remember hearing was "Sabotage."

[titou lapraline]

sabotage
and i hated it!

lol...personnly, body movin'...and I hated it too...:D

[laurie_hammy]

Hmmm Fight For Your Right.

Then Intergalactic, then 3 MC's.

[enree erzweglle]

I guess it was Fight for Your Right although I didn't really take notice of it. It was a song that had radio play time and I'd keep it on if I didn't feel like changing the station. But it wasn't a song that I enjoyed then or now.

Now, it's sometimes good to watch that video to see how much they've changed (not just physically).

[cabojohnny5150]

paul revere. my cousin played it for me when i was in 7th grade (1986) i thought the album was 'licenced to kill' i couldnt remember the name of the band so i called record stores in town looking for it and nobody had it (since i was asking for the wrong title) i bought it finaly and played it everyday for over a year. i bought Pauls Boutique the day it was released and was very disapointed (i was a kid who wanted a cookie cutter cd of licenced to ill) it wasnt until a few years later i really started likeing this cd. (now it is my favorite Beastie cd) johnny

Intergalactic in 98 because my brother kept singing the robotic part.

[M.C. Guevera]

"(You've Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party!)" on the radio while I was in the car going home from Hershey Park back in July 1997. I thought it was funny, but that's about it.

The first Beastie Boys song I *liked* was "Intergalatic" back in 1998.

But the song that turned me into a fan was "Sure Shot", and this was back in 2004.

[laurie_hammy]

Intergalactic in 98 because my brother kept singing the robotic part.

hahaha

[Sirius Black]

^ I heard Intergalactic on the radio prior to that, its just that it sticks in the mind because my older brother kept singing "Intergalactic planetary, planetary intergalactic" for days after it.
