[talita]

i'm still thinkin which one... :confused:

[Lex Diamonds]

Wonderwall (cover)

[talita]

Wonderwall (cover)

yeah, good choice.

[kleptomaniac]

no offense, but this thead is WACK! (yeah, that's right. i said "wack")

worst bboys song?! :eek: (!)



none from me, sorry :rolleyes:

i have some that i like more than other songs...but i don't think bad about any of them. nope. :o (not even "some old bullshit", not even that)

[kleptomaniac]

Wonderwall (cover)

:confused:


oh that counts?

okay, but that's it. the rest are golden :D


edit: maybe we should ask the beastie boys what they think their worst song is. *shrugs*

[talita]

beastie revolution was meant to be a good song, it is good tough, but it's too long... Seems endless...

[paradoxx]

i love the songs, but i thought the last album was a little short. def some hot tracks on it though. maybe i just cant get enough B-Boys.?!

[beastiegirl18]

Wonderwall (cover)

[kleptomaniac]

Hands down.... Triple Trouble.

[jackrock]

Hands down.... Triple Trouble.
:eek: :eek: ... :mad: :mad:

[kleptomaniac]

Hands down.... Triple Trouble.

why, Rich, why...? :confused: :(


this is a joke, ain't it? ahaha funny...you got me. :rolleyes:

[talita]

i dont think it's a bad song, but i dont like right right now now

[kleptomaniac]

i dont think it's a bad song, but i dont like right right now now


why why not not?

[adrock14]

this has got to be the hardest question I have ever been asked. :confused: i say none of their songs are bad, every one rules!!! (!) (y) :D

[talita]

why why not not?

i dont like the sampler they use in this song... and i dont know... maybe the rythm

[ggirlballa]

:eek: hey! i like triple trouble and right right now now!!!! (y)

[Rich Cheney]

:eek: :eek: ... :mad: :mad:
Sorry folks, don't like the triple trouble y'all. Heard Rappers Delight one time too many growing up and triple trouble's like "Oh no, not again".

[THRILLHO]

The problem with positivity for positivity's sake is that it leaves you either saying very little, being dangerously sanitised, or both.

You see it a lot in this forum. People don't talk like people, they talk like tactful automatons.

The worst songs for me are:

Song for the Man
We Got The
Triple Trouble
Just a Test
Eugene's Lament.

There's nothing on any of these I feel I need to hear anymore.

When the positive message comes correct like on 'Unite' it's all good. Songs like 'All Lifestyles' really need a counterpoint, and I guess that's why they're acceptable in concert form, surrounded by your 'Posse in Effect' or 'High Plains Drifter'.

[THRILLHO]

Song for the man is a personal song.
I like Eugene's Lament I think it's a nice instrumental and Mike is into the indian culture.
Not criticizing your opinion, BTW. (y)

I feel that 'Time to build' is much more personal, if not more impassioned, and executed in a far superior manner.

'Eugene's Lament' is a loop, and a violin.

[Justin]

I cant think of any songs that i hate.

[Borat'sSon]

Very Good commentary. Where I am from So Whatcha Want is hated. Very Good I do not Know why but So Whatcha Want...good lord ladies hate So Whatcha want....very good.

[jackrock]

Sorry folks, don't like the triple trouble y'all. Heard Rappers Delight one time too many growing up and triple trouble's like "Oh no, not again".
ok, understandable

[Nerd Fight]

In a world gone mad.

I nearly fell off my chair when I heard it.

[midzi]

Everybody keep mentioning wonderwall. First of all it's only a cover. Besides nobody have the impression that it was intended to sound bad. Nobody finds this performance ironic. I always treated this as a joke.

[PaddyBoy]

All Lifestyles!

[titoratm]

the worse b-boy songs for me definately are : Shazam! and oh word? then i like all the beasties songs they've made. i love all instrumentals as well ..

[Chicka B]

I know! I thought Adrock was drunk or something. Is it bad that I found it funny? :D

[Guy Incognito]

I know! I thought Adrock was drunk or something. Is it bad that I found it funny? :D

It was supposed to be ironic but when i heard it i was still disappointed cos i think they could have done a great version if they wanted

[Rob Dogg]

Intergalactic! I hate robots (n) :mad:

[Extra Cheese]

[Chicka B]

Yeah, I couldn't tell weather they were trying to make it good or just joking. Because Adrock was just...I don't know. :D But this thread should be called "songs you skip passed" because none of them are bad, just overplayed or not my type or something you know? But the songs I skip passed usually is fight for your right and girls.

[Feel Alright!]

Hmm the one's I'm not inclined to listen to are:

Shambala
Mark On The Bus
Flowin' Prose
The Update

They don't offend me, but they don't exactly get me going either.

[Kid Presentable]

I wonder how the Beastie Boys feel about IAWGM, and all the hate it gets on these boards. I don't mind it, it has it's place.

[Guy Incognito]

I used to have issues with licensed to ill but now all of it makes me smile and it makes me reminisce and i think its aged ok.

If i had to pick one song i dont like its skills to pay the bills but only coz i think it could have been so much better.

[Chicka B]

Well I aint got no issues with LTI, I listen to it a lot, I just skip passed them cause they're a little too cheesy to me. They were good songs though, just that I heard them too much. The rest of the songs on there are just great though. (y)

Thats just stupid. I dont undertsand how people hate this song. I love it. The rhymes are awsome !

"WHAT AM I ON CRAZY PILLS ? WE GOTTA STOP THIS !
GET YA HANDS OUT MY GRANDMA'S POCKETS
WE NEED HEALTHCARE MORE, THAN GOING TO WAR
YA THINK ITS DEMOCRACY THERE FIGHTIN FOR !

Beastie rhymes like this make my day !

[Hello_nasty]

Bodhisaatva vow
Shambala
The Scoop
In a World Gone Mad
Dr. Lee, PhD
And then I

All tied for my least fav Beastie songs.

[Nerd Fight]

What can I say, it's an instinctual, animal reaction to the song.

First time I heard it, I thought it sounded like an educational rap song. You know, like a bunch of social science professors got together to make a 'fly' rap song for their 'homies' (students) to make learning about social reform fun !
It sounded really awkward and weak, especially the breakdown where adrock's like 'now how many people must get killed...'

After a while I got used to it and started to warm to it...

...and then cooled off again...

...and can now declare that I believe it to be the worst Beastie Boys song of all !

[talita]

Dr. Lee, PhD
i dont like that too

[laurie_hammy]

Bodhisaatva vow
Shambala

In a World Gone Mad

You gotta be joking about "The Scoop" ? Is it cause of the voice effect ? Cause I dont think its possible to not like that song. Its is the definition of Ill Communication Rhymes. Without the voice effect I think everyone wold love that song. One of my fav Beastie songs for sure ! Without the voice effect it would probably be my fav Beastie song.

[Justin]

Dr. Lee, PhD

I didnt like it at first either, but that was a long time ago. Mr "Scratch" phD is the shit. When i listen to his albums it makes me wanna go lay in the sun and sip on a tropical drink and just chill out

[blahblah4898]

Fight For You Right *ducks*

...it's just too irritating. come to think of it, most of LTI has that affect on me.

[mickill]

Girls
Beastie Groove
We Got The
Crawlspace
Body Movin


Mark On The Bus
Flowin' Prose

I enjoy these.

[paulb]

Song for the Man
Oh word? (moderatly decent, least fav on cd)
Crawlspace
And Then I (horrible! just horrible!) thank God it was a bside.

of course, these songs i fairly dislike. although do not hate.

Actually, it is in fact possible to not like that song. As for the reason, it's a combination of the voice effect, the rhymes, and the flow: they simply don't appeal to me.

[medler]

the worse b-boy songs for me definately are : Shazam! and oh word? then i like all the beasties songs they've made. i love all instrumentals as well ..

if you've seen shazam on conan with doug fresh you'd change your mind

and if you've seen the oh word computer generated video you'd like that too

[beatrix_rocks]

Intergalactic! I hate robots (n) :mad:

What?!? Oh no! How can you hate robots?!? That's just blasphemous! ;)

[talita]

Girls
I dislike this song too... It's funny, but completly unnecessary.

[Parkey]

Hands down.... Triple Trouble.
I agree mate; it's shit.

[mrbrownliketown]

A bad B-boys song?

...does that even exist?

[Kid Presentable]

Have a read.

[mrbrownliketown]

I read the whole thread. I was just stating my own opinion in sarcasm if that was too hard to figure out.

Shit, sorry.

:o

[mrbrownliketown]

It's cool ;)

But if I had to choose a worst song, it would probably be one of the ones off of to the 5 boroughs. Most of the beats just didnt do it for me :rolleyes:

[Laver1969]

I generally skip over what the Beasties used to refer to as "The Sexy Songs"

I do like them though and will just pop in the In Sounds when the spirit moves me.

[talita]

I generally skip over what the Beasties used to refer to as "The Sexy Songs"


Which songs are called "The sexy songs"?

[Rock]

Girls
Song for the Man
Flowin' Prose
I Don't Know
All Lifestyles
Crawlspace

[Laver1969]

Which songs are called "The sexy songs"?

The stuff on In Sounds.

[Kid Presentable]

Crawlspace
Girls
Alive

[kleptomaniac]

i can't believe it! :eek: (!)

[talita]

The stuff on In Sounds.

Really?? They call that "The sexy songs"??
ahahahahahahaha oh my!

[Chicka B]

Whoa I never knew that! I always thought those songs were sexy too, but I just thought that was my dirty mind. Well atleast I know they were intended to be. :D

[Laver1969]

Really?? They call that "The sexy songs"??
ahahahahahahaha oh my!

That's just the way they introduced the songs in concert a lot. Alrighty...here's another sexy song for ya.

[talita]

:eek:

[kleptomaniac]

Everybody keep mentioning wonderwall. First of all it's only a cover. Besides nobody have the impression that it was intended to sound bad. Nobody finds this performance ironic. I always treated this as a joke.

i was just saying that because there's nothing else to say. i don't think any of the beasties songs are bad; that's why i was like, "let's all just say wonderwall and end this thread now." :o


btw, what everyone's reason for the songs they put? :confused:
alive? flowin' prose? crawlspace? (etc)

what the heck?!

[talita]

let's build a BBoys church for those who think they are perfect, they are god....

they COULD make bad songs and they did.
that's all.

[kleptomaniac]

yeah, they're not perfect, but in my opinion, they at least didn't make bad songs :rolleyes:

IN MY OPINION. (y)



and if in your opinion...they made some bad songs....that's....fine... :(

[Kid Presentable]

Flowin Prose is sick.

Crawlspace is not. Adrock's verse is a nice novelty, but the rest of it is meh. It would never escape the shadow of 3-minute rule without some serious effort, and then it would sound too contrived.

Just not my cup of tea.

[madchild]

pretty much every song on TT5B i hated except for Ch-check it out and open letter......
You guys can stick up for that album all you want. The fact of the matter is, that album had the worst rhymes the beasties have ever come up with, ever!

They fell off a little, but it's still a good album. It just can't compete with some of their other stuff.

It has its place.

[talita]

they take 6 years to make TT5B and the album seems like was made in 3 months...

[kleptomaniac]

maybe sasquatch had 'em for 5 years and 9 months, so you can't blame 'em then.


TT5B isn't my favorite, but it's a good one nonetheless. ;)

[Kid Presentable]

The crazy thing is you'd have a much harder time making that record with all the software than you would with instruments and samplers.

Good on them for trying something new, though. (y)

[talita]

i think they could make it better, but TT5B is a good cd, not that good, but still good.

[laurie_hammy]

God, there are some trippers in here !

[funkdoc2005]

I love the Beastie Boys but I HAVE to say "Girls". And I think by looking at other peoples post its going to be the winner.

[Guy Incognito]

Cant believe that "Alive" is getting so much stick on here - its a beltin track, i thought it would be a big favourite. Got some great rhymes in it.

[Weezman]

I wouldnt go as far as saying, "worse song".....maybe least favorite?! :p

I cant think of any at this moment. There so many favorite ones. :cool:

[talita]

beastie boys church

[kleptomaniac]

beastie boys church

a.k.a. beastieboys.com ?

[talita]

beastie boys church is for those who think they are perfect and they are god, I said it before.

[talita]

church to praise their love and mercy.
*sarcasm*

[talita]

yeah, they made mistakes.

[BroomHead]

In a World Gone Mad is pretty shitty

if we're counting B-Sides here.

they take 6 years to make TT5B and the album seems like was made in 3 months...

I think most of that time was to live their own lives, and have families and such.
