Fatboy Slim eating MMs and Cake riding on a Jet (minimal twang, if any)

1999-03-03 Thread Ameritwang

A few weeks back, I actually caught some of 120 Minutes on MTV, and found my
self actually intrigued/enthused by the 3 videos I did catch (one, of course,
was the new Sparklehorse).  The other 2 artists, (I actually wrote their names
down to look into) were Fatboy Slim - "Praise You" and Eminem.

Now, I hadn't heard either name for at least 2 weeks, then, all of a sudden
I'm hearing both of themAnd just last week, I heard that Fatboy Slim is
actually a former Housemartin (Norman Cook?), which caught my attention as
well (since I've always liked the Housemartins...and thought the Beautiful
South was "ok", but never got into "Beats Int'l)

Honestly, I doubt I can be sold on the Eminem camp, however,  I've noticed
jdiva "np'ing" the disc a few times.  Fatboy Slim, now there's a different
story.

Regarding CAKE:   I've always enjoyed their radio songs to a point where I'm
not sick of hearing them when they are played (maybe because they don't get
too much play (or overplayed) around these parts...at least not on the
stations I listen to).  Although, not on my "short wantlist", I may have to
add their name onto my "need to look into" list...thanks Neal.

"Jet" covers reminds me of this Jellyfish disc I have where they do "Jet",
"Let 'Em In" and "No Matter What" (Badfinger) live.  I believe the "Jet" cover
is intro'd with "This is the sexiest song ever written"...and then the singer
goes on to say, "I think you know what 'Jet' really means..."

Ok, I lied, there's no twang in this post.

I must say, I think that Fatboy Slim song "Praise You" is pretty darn great.

Not only is that a great song but the video is one of the funniest things
I've seen on MTV in a very LNG time.
