Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 16:37 (twelve years ago) link

noooooooooooooow I like nothin better than a pretty girl's smile
and I haven't seen a smile that pretty in a while

love she's crafty!!

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 17:02 (twelve years ago) link

remember wanting a Fudgie the Whale cake for my birthday, but one of my friends got one for theirs and that changed my mind. Carvel ice cream was so nasty. Do they still exist?

nonsense -- best soft serve ice cream for years. Quite a few remain open in Miami.

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 17:06 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah there's a Carvel over by my office here in Folsom. i kinda like their icecream!

30. "BODY MOVIN'" (1998) [250 points, 12 votes]

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:20 (twelve years ago) link

Love the video, but not a huge fan of the song. Despise that Fatboy Slim remix.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:23 (twelve years ago) link

yeah, the prevalence of that fatboy slim remix is baffling

steel drums sample on the original pretty much makes the song for me

diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:32 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah, original version is like 500% better than the dumb remix.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:33 (twelve years ago) link

like the fatboy slim "body movin'" remix used in that video soooo much more than the album version

>:(

contrarianizer, more like

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:35 (twelve years ago) link

Body Movin is probably the best thing on Hello Nasty. or, at least, it's the one that stands out to me as the most memorable. still didn't vote for it.

29. "STAND TOGETHER" (1992) [252 points, 14 votes]

CYH's "secret weapon" as previously mentioned

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:48 (twelve years ago) link

A secret weapon I happily left off my ballot and most often skip when playing the album.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:51 (twelve years ago) link

weirdo

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 18:53 (twelve years ago) link

yeah, happy to be non-contrarian abt stand together. great song.

I gave it my #20 on a whim at the last minute when I cooled on 3 MCs. More for its potential in truth - I can imagine growing to love it.

28. "THE NEGOTIATION LIMERICK FILE" (1998) [264 points, 12 votes, 1 first place vote]

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:31 (twelve years ago) link

Now this one I can get behind. It was instantly my favorite on Hello Nasty and remains so.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:32 (twelve years ago) link

great underrated song

diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:32 (twelve years ago) link

My #3. Love it.

27. "SUPER DISCO BREAKIN'" (1998) [283 points, 13 votes]

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:01 (twelve years ago) link

here we are!

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:01 (twelve years ago) link

xp Carvel still exists.

billstevejim, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:07 (twelve years ago) link

The lyrics of "Body Movin" are totally fun and I somehow still remembered all of them when I heard it a few days ago for the first time since like 1999. I never loved its production on any specific version, but who cares...

billstevejim, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:12 (twelve years ago) link

I didn't vote for it though, but it's not that bad.

billstevejim, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:13 (twelve years ago) link

I had my hopes up for "Something's Got To Give" placin just a lil higher than that.

billstevejim, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:14 (twelve years ago) link

"Super Disco Breakin" was my highest-ranked Hello Nasty cut. Such a great high-voltage album opener.

26. "I DON'T KNOW" (1998) [295 points, 13 votes]

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:35 (twelve years ago) link

man you guys really like Hello Nasty

Roger Barfing (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:36 (twelve years ago) link

i'm not a big hello nasty fan, but i did vote for i don't know. sounds like thurston moore being a sad hippie with a bent flower.

sounds like thurston moore being a sad hippie with a bent flower.

ha! it really does.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:39 (twelve years ago) link

voted for both of these

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:39 (twelve years ago) link

Very sad Thurston. Good call on that comparison.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:39 (twelve years ago) link

I saw someone who looked like a hippie last week holding a flower and I started humming "I Don't Know."

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:40 (twelve years ago) link

"I Don't Know" is nice and all, but one thing this poll reaffirmed for me is I really prefer loud yapping Beasties to dreamy/experimental Beasties.

something of an astrological coup (tipsy mothra), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:44 (twelve years ago) link

I'm sure everyone agrees with you. "I Don't Know" is a good palate cleanser though, like Pellegrino after a night of drinking.

fuck yeah

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:53 (twelve years ago) link

Turtles' "I'm Chief Kamanawanalea" is my favorite break/drumloop ever

Roger Barfing (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:54 (twelve years ago) link

such a great opener

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:54 (twelve years ago) link

killer.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:55 (twelve years ago) link

"I Don't Know" is a good palate cleanser though, like Pellegrino after a night of drinking.

Yup. In the context of the album I like it just fine.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 21:16 (twelve years ago) link

My #1, though more for memories around it than it being their absolute best.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 21:17 (twelve years ago) link

Professor, what's another word for pirate treasure?
