I can't even believe that. Am I just getting old, or has the entirety of post 2000 time blurred together into one big indigestible mass?

it was a radio hit before the remix dropped. it's on The Chocolate Factory directly before the remix. it's a fucking awesome song, and I hate that the remix has so totally eclipsed it for most people.

I saw Will Oldham and Matt Sweeney cover the original "Ignition" in 2004.
― jaymc, Wednesday, 23 January 2013 17:14 (eleven years ago) link
It's not a bad song, but I've been disappointed when I've come across "Ignition" but not "Ignition (Remix)" in karaoke books.
Almost disappointed that there was an "original", it'd be a bit KLF if it didn't though.
Will have to hear it.

yeah I was DJ'ing for some kids one time early 2004 and I accidentally played the original version. they were like literally teenagers though so i think i cared more than they did.

There was no "Sex In The Kitchen" (orig mix) though, was there?

jesus christ if you had to vet the personal history of every musician before playing their song at a fucking party.

http://www.gq.com/story/r-kelly-confessions
Kelly then tells me a story about “Ignition (Remix)” that is so bizarre and counter-logical that I'll get him to repeat the whole thing tomorrow. It makes so little sense that I assume I have misunderstood. What he tells me is this: that he wrote the basis of “Ignition (Remix)”—including the lyric It's the remix to “Ignition” / hot and fresh out the kitchen…—five or so years before he wrote the song called “Ignition.” (It stayed on the shelf because, initially, he didn't think much of it.) That's really what he's saying: He wrote the remix of a song, with lyrics identifying it as a remixed version, five years before he wrote the “original.” In other words, the song called “Ignition”—which was presented to the world as the song that “Ignition (Remix)” was the remix of—was actually an R. Kelly-style remix of the song we know as “Ignition (Remix).” I talk this through with him, again and again, increasingly mystified, but he really does seem to mean this. “It's ass-backwards,” he admits contentedly.

Hey John, do you still want to piss on me?? I might not be as big as you as a writer, but type my name. I might be googleable enough for you to rethink your public opinion.

Hate to break it to you, but I just checked your post history and the relevant threads, and JD never said that to you. The fact that you're fixated enough on a seventeen year old mis-remembrance to come onto a thread and make vague threats is a little worrying to me.
