X-Ecutioners feat. Mike Shinoda & Mr. Hahn: It's Goin' Down
Song of the Day: February 1, 2023
“ It's going down
The logical progression on the timeline
The separation narrowed down to a fine line
To blur the edges so they blend together properly
Take you on an audible odyssey “
Additional Thoughts: I was really hoping for a big Meteora announcement today but we didn’t get it. Oh well.

Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice
2001
The song features a lead vocal by American funk musician Bootsy Collins. On the album version, Collins's normal vocals are heard through the right audio channel; the same vocals, distorted to a much deeper pitch, are heard through the left.
The song features a prominent sample of Sly & the Family Stone's 1968 song "Into My Own Thing", as well as samples from "All Strung Out Over You" by The Chambers Brothers and "Word Play" by The X-Ecutioners.
The lines "Walk without rhythm/and it won't attract the worm" quote the science fiction novel Dune, while the line "tone of my voice" may be the titular weapon, as used by some of the book's characters. The line "halfway between the gutter and the stars" refers to a line in Oscar Wilde's play Lady Windermere's Fan: "We are all of us in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars", and was also used as the album title.
The music video features actor Christopher Walken Dancen dancing around a deserted hotel lobby. It won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Music Video, six awards at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards, and Christopher Walken was awarded one of MTV's Moonmen for Best Choreography.
I think it's safe to say that the video is one of the truly greatest music videos ever made, and needs to be watched by everybody. Your whole life will be vastly improved by having this video in your life.
Check it out now, funk soul brothers.

Listening to an everynoise generated playlist and I guess it fucked up trying to put the artist General Patton vs. the X-Ecutioners in here so it instead put an actual recorded speech by us army general george s patton and i listened to the whole thing like "huh this sure is a long sample but its kinda cool wonder where the song goes from here"
