This will decide once and for all. Is it classic Beastie Boys music, or just meh?

Feel free to justify your decision.

I don't like it as much as other songs, but in the right time and place, I guess it's aight. The video is great.(y)

TT was one of the tracks that took a little while to grow on me. But I think it's a classic now.

i had seen the video before i had gotten the cd so i guess i was already in love with the song :o

before listening to the song, i got the lyrics, and would sing along to the video until i got it exactly right. so i was always destined to find the beastie boys you see because we clicked like that *snap* :cool:

I love it, I mean when I saw the video on tv I was like "Hey that's from Sugar Hill Gang!" Then I got all excited. It's a classic Hip Hop group giving homage to another classic Hip Hop group. It brings back good memories of my steps into becoming a fan, and the video is mad entertaining. I like the up-beatness of it, and the rhymes. Classic Beastie Boys! (y)

They opened with this song on the last tour more than any other song. They must really love it to. It does bring alot of energy.


Its like the Sure Shot of 2004

Yeah, I didn't think so. It never seems to get going.

That said, I do like the cuts on the album version.

I love it!
When I heard it first time I jumpedup from my bed (I was getting concentrated to sleep....at night) and started dancing, in the dark....) then I saw the video and...that move with the shoulders that AdRock does, while he says "svens and elevens"....that made me crazy!
so...I think it's good and that's a classic... :)

Not my favourite. But I agree with others that it sounds much better live.

fun-est song off TT5B. Open Letter will still be my favourite off the album though.

yeah, do you ever get the feeling it'sjust too slow? like the tempo isn never quite right to really get a gig going. I don't know, you can''t really do much to it, maybe it isn't too slow...but it's not got the ability (in my mind) to make a crowd jump up and down or seriously move like say Sure Shot.

I like it though, but I think there's 7 or 8 stronger tracks on TT5B.
