This is the best version of this song I have heard. Also the video clip at 0:22 credits "Beach Boys" instead of "Beastie Boys" which is kind of fucking hilarious if you ask me.

Thanks for sharing.

This has its own thread but it deserves to be here, too:

Our man’s at 2:31.

Wait til you hear the lyric they selected for him. I guess it’s an obvious choice, but it’s yet to be matched in terms of impact. I must have listened to it a million times but it still has the power to make my heart stop.

MCA is the youngest on the list (bar one). Ouch.

From the article:

"Even after he was given a diagnosis of parotid-gland cancer three years ago, the idea of a world without Ad-Rock and Mike D passing the mic to Yauch seemed inconceivable. It shouldn’t have been. Rock history — human history, really — is full of evidence that we’re not here long, that we should get our houses in order and do something of value with our time. The lesson of Yauch’s life was that it is possible to make that happen."
