Also – the rounded Australia pronunciation of “can’t”……. @ 1:46 ie……..“you cahrn’t front on THAT”………....….made me grin. <3
Haha, agreed! Thanks for sharing

so maybe a lot of you guys have seen this now but i just found and watched it for the first time yesterday - awesome tribute video to MCA —

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBVGo...ure=plpp_video

and also, check out this new video of this guy, pretty distinct style from the Beasties, but he's singing at a lot of different spots in NYC, including a couple of the new MCA murals - check 1:50 and 3:02 for starters also the Confucius statue in Chinatown and happy dancing kids at 3:45 - there's a line or two in here that remind me of "why do politicians always want to fight?" from "we got the" from to the 5 boroughs


also i think Yauch and the guys would like the statue of Gandhi from Union Square Park in NYC (1:38)

interesting stuff



there's something coming to the surface // there's fire all around.. some day.. we shall..

um, WOW!! Thank you for the amazing video - I've been a fan for many years but learned a few things watching it... and where's the track from?

Glad you liked the other one too, the man lives on strong in his influence to others musically, spiritually, *comedically* ;-)

Aw, well thankyou for that feedback. Made my day!

The music I used in the video is a homemade mix of a few Beastie tracks. I did it in a hurry on the day he died and it’s pretty dodgy as a result. Not my best work. I wish I could’ve done better but……..under the circumstances……..whatcha gonna do?

The original track is called “A Year And A Day”. Yauch recorded it in Koreatown, LA, wearing a tricked out jet pilot’s helmet. True story. If you want a copy, call Paul's Boutique and ask for Janice. Their number is 718-498-1043. ;-)

I used the instrumental version, too, which you can find here http://www.beastiemixes.com/acappellas.php on the sensational Beastiemixes.com website, hosted by the legend himself, Silence7. He’s charming, he’s dashing………he’s rental car bashing.

BTW – it is very nice to meet you! I love to see a new username………….Beastiefans unite, aiite?
