![]() That's a really good and borderline obnoxious imitation of ad-rocks's vocals. But a very fun cover regardless.

![]() ^ haha yes!!
i think that knowing the story of the song makes the way adrock sings it much funnier. was it, basically, he's mad at mario c in the booth for fucking with his takes? instrumentally the most interesting Sabotage cover I've heard. I really like the keyboard in place of the bass/guitar ![]() |

![]() i thought he was mocking mario because mario was freaking out over certain hardware not operating correctly. he even unplugged something and threw it out the window at one point, i think.

from the Beastie Book, Adrock said "I decided that it'll be funny to write a song about how Mario was holding us all down, how he was trying to mess it all up, sabotaging our great works of art," "So one night I went to Mario's house, and he recorded me screaming words into a microphone over that track, all about some mysterious thorn in my side. The ubiquitous biters and the haters." |

![]() aaah yes, now i recall. the bit about mario throwing the power strip out the window and proclaiming "god bless america" was included in the Sabotage chapter, but not directly related.
mario was growing more and more frustrated with the boys' indecisiveness and would constantly push them to 'finish something, anything'. so Adrock joked that he was trying to 'sabotage their works of art'.

- A member of the Beastie Boys rap group pleaded no contest Tuesday to a misdemeanor battery charge in an attack on a television cameraman. Adam Horovitz, 27, was sentenced to two years probation and ordered to perform 200 hours of community service, pay a $200 fine and make restitution to victim Herbert Goebert. Horovitz was accused of attacking Goebert, a cameraman for the television news magazine “Hard Copy,” during a Nov. 2 memorial service for actor River Phoenix. The service was held across the street from Horovitz’s Mt. Olympus home. Deputy Dist. Atty. Theodore Loewen urged Municipal Judge L. Jeffrey Wiatt to sentence Horovitz to 30 days in jail. He said Horovitz and an unidentified man confronted Goebert and beat him when he refused to give them videotape he had taken of people arriving at the service for Phoenix, who died of a drug overdose. |
