Right, knew I was spacing on something.

Smells Like Teen Spirit is way better than American Pie and Piano Man combined.

There's really just one way to resolve this. Stay tuned to the Music forum....

I ONLY JUST NOW REALIZED that every parody on this album that isn't SLN... is a hip-hop song.

NKOTB and Milli Vanilli are hip-hop?

Depends how broad your definition is I guess.

I guess your definition of hip hop is VERY broad.

Yeah all the other parody targets really did suck. Great parodies though, but the originals really stole the show on Off The Deep End. Sucks only one has ever been done live, to our knowledge. They were supposed to do I Was Only Kidding but it got scrapped before the tour apparently.

On the MF tour? Wow, interesting! That would be a fun one live! Maybe it'll be brought out next year...

OH NO, that would have been AWESOME! Steve said it was supposed to be on the OTDE tour. They really did need another killer original in the set this year, along with Dare To Be Stupid.
