I do agree it is a classic. Great song! To bad it was not a single. | |

How about this big old hole in the ozone?" to lyrics like "In France a skinny man died of a big disease with a little name." There's no contest. [Edited 8/28/05 15:39pm] well yea if ur gonna compare it to a weak ass line like that than yea there IS no comparrison, there are weak lines in sott y'kno (like this: Some say man ain't happy unless a man truly dies) how bout this comparin these lines: "aint nothin fare about welfare" comepare to "in france a skinny man died of a big disease with a little name" or "sister killed her baby cuz she couldn't afford 2 feed it" compare to "who told me mr man that workin round the clock would buy me a big house in the hood" It just still seems really banal. SOTT was inspired recorded music to me. DMM just isn't. I'm not even sure it was supposed to be. I'd put it behind even "Welcome to the Rat Race" or "America" -- none of those tracks have really mindblowing lyrics, but they all seem superior to DMM as a "message" song. | |
