stella_blue:
The appearance of a song on my "Least Favorite" list shouldn't imply that I dislike the track.  Take "Countdown To Ecstasy" as an example.  There are no weak songs to be found anywhere on that release, so I had to reluctantly choose between "Your Gold Teeth" and "Show Biz Kids", although I imagine you would have selected "Pearl Of The Quarter".  Consider it a testament to the greatness of that album.

"There ain't nothing in Chicago for a monkey woman to do."

That reminds me, I have to get moving on the SD lyric quiz.

Side note (also old thread bump <stirpot>): nice use of the Peg sample in De la Soul's Eye Know.
