Before that, they both were riding on the Beastie Boys ripoff express.

1567. in her senile later years, protest singer Malvina Reynolds would often write the same song multiple times without even realizing it. she'd come to her publisher with a new song called "Teensy Boxes", and he'd have to tell her, "why Malvina, this is just a rewrite of 'Little Boxes'. you wrote this 15 years ago." but it was no use, and she only got worse over time. from December 31, 1975 until her death in 1978, she wrote over 1,000 songs and poems, but all of them were titled "Don't Lick that Envelope" and all of them began with the words

it's bad enough to pay your rent,
but the price of stamps just went up 3 cents
a postcard soon will cost ten dollars
but the postmaster's dog wears diamond collars
don't lick that enevelope, it's made of gold
don't lick that envelope, it's made of gold

to this day, nobody has ever recorded it.

1596. "The Amp Got Shot in the Woofer Cause of Drugs" initially appeared as the B-side to Sly and the Family Stone's 1971 hit, "Family Affair". This edition of single was pulled within days of its October 16 release date, however, when the FDA discovered that the vinyl used contained dangerously high levels of several toxic ketone compounds. When the single was re-released on 6 November 1971, the new pressing was backed with "Luv n' Haight". "The Amp Got Shot in the Woofer Cause of Drugs" has not since been released or compiled, and the few known copies of the original single (the volatile toxic compounds having long ago evaporated) trade for upwards of $1,000.

In the village of Kapkatet, Kenya in the late 1990′s, members of the Kipsigi tribe somehow came across a few records of Sinead O'Connor. Convinced that such strange sounds could not come from a human, the voice was attributed to a centaur-like spirit they called Chenedokona. This half-man half-antelope is honored in fertility rites where young Kipsigi maidens dance seductively to the Sinead O'Connor records, begging her to join them in a leaping dance in hopes that Chenedokona will jump completely out of her clothes.
