Okay, this song is melting my face off! LOVE!

omg 'bring in the katz'

i feel like i'd really love "bring in the katz" if i'd heard it in a club anywhere last year

hahahah this is great

this makes me feel like kinda how I wished death grips would make me feel

I don't use "epic" much, but everything about this track is epic imo and I want it to last for an hour.

If you're going to insistently say "bring in the cats" then I WANT CATS, goddamn you. Where are they???

Probably the best reaction to an unknown track regardless of crowd anywhere/context I DJed this, really teaches you how to dance/appreciate it over the course of under 4 and a half minutes. You gotta vision it, you gotta see it.

i just want to go outside and scream "BRING IN THE KATZ" at the first person i see

that sounds pretty cool. weird juxtaposition of machine gun stabs and very relaxed parts. i really like it. something different.

the kats are brought in as the song progresses. they're nuzzling against the dude's ankles. somehow he doesnt notice and he keeps screaming "bring in the kats"

lol

i am listening again, the katz do not come in for like 30 seconds

i listened to this song a bit too much this year but i was so blown away first i heard it, something really mysterious and beguiling about it which is weird to say since it's just a big banger. if british people named a silly genre after stuff that sounds like bring in the katz i would read the ilx thread about it

30 other songs are gonna have a hard time topping this one, really.

btw, bring in the katz youtube dance vids are essential:

30. M.I.A. "Bad Girls" [314 points, 11 votes, 1 first place vote]

Spotify / Youtube

this song was cool for like the 3 days that i cared. nice production tho

A+ screen grab

lol i COMPLETELY forgot mia released a single this year!

is this the one with the gingers?

"bad girls" is okay but i forgot this song even existed until EOY time.

i guess bcuz MIA wasn't doing press for an album or anything she just totally slipped my mind and when i saw this song show up on all the EOY lists i felt like michael bluth being asked a question about ann veal

A+ screen grab

yeah, fun video

This needs more katz imo

now i am playing bring in the katz again but this time in youtube and spotify simultaneously but like 4 measures apart, this is the best experience of my life i think.

I love this song tons, the groove is just butter

also yes, M.I.A. chilling on the car in that video is badass

the creation story for katz (via some dude) is excellent

H.E.R.?

It all needs more katz

Put some katz on it.

one of my more liked m.i.a. songs which is not saying much but

Le1f & KW Griff = booom AND I still quite like the MIA too

i have no idea if this is right but as i said the night they first did the song on the radio it was raining buckets outside, so i always heard it as in "it's raining, better bring the pets inside for the night"

i was listening to 92q the night chop started goofing w/ griff on the air and they came up with this -- it was a super heavy rain that night, like a torrential downpour, and i was like fuck this is the greatest thing i've ever heard, he seemed to go on for like 15 minutes straight

when they did it live on the radio lots of other animals were eventually brought in, did any of those versions make it out there?

Whoa yeah "Bring in the Katz" is the first one today that has got my little head bobbing. I love that drum sample. What's it from?

i was kinda hoping that zebra katz would follow "bring in the katz"

Team More Katz + also some Zebra fucking pls

the katz callout reminds me of "UTAH SAINTS!!"

i was kinda hoping that zebra katz would follow "bring in the katz"
