If you talking about hate, then I need to talk about RWTW for exaple. Second worst Prodigy track ever if you ask me. Fuck you Dave Ghrol, I wish this one was never released.

And worst is that one with Twista on AONO. Jesus Christ Liam!
what???

on the contrary... Run is savage! a bit lazy i admit, but on the other hand as said by liam it was finished in the last minute and therefore not overpolished. a banger is what it is

get up get off is dope. i remember hearing it in a club next to all the cheeky usual shit and it was so heavy.. if you hate a prodge track dont compare it to prodge tracks. and what has jesus christ to do with this? get up get off is liam all over it. hip hop and heavy beats

but its opinions, i know


Of course for opinions! And noting with Jesus. I also can say "For God's sake Liam", and nothing with God of course. :P

But technically, RWTW is last minute track, nothing new, nothing good, just beats, DIOYY samples, drums and something like guitars. Veeeeery bad vocals, terrible lyrics which repeating one strophe over and over and over and over.

Get up get off is like mix of american diarrhea and british puke. With terrible vocals by Twista, bad vocals by Juliette Lewis, stupid and unnecessarily vocals by Shanin Badar. There are SMBU alike beats as one and only little good thing in this track.


And come on guys. We are all HC prodigy fans, they are our favorite band and their music is one we like the most. We will not talking anything against them nowhere around. But this is the place where we talking among themselves, and we need to criticize sometimes.

For some of you everything is alwas great and if Prodigy make last shit it will be greeeeat! They are great band, but they aren't perfect and they have bad stuff, bad tracks and many bad decisions in their career. So...

Are you sure Juliette Lewis is in Get Up Get Off? I thought she was only on Spitfire and Hotride...

Anyway I really like Get Up Get Off, I've always liked it. It has a lot of classic Prodigy sounds and tuffness, and yeah it is dope.

Run With The Wolves is ok, not a fave of mine, but it's alright. It's hard, has nice bass and dirty synth line. A bit punky, but one of the weaker tracks off IMD...

Yes! She singing "You can not get up if you wanna get off" line.

I thought it was "you gotta get up if you wanna get off"

This is a solid Prodigy track.
I would love an instrumental version of this track as well
Too bad, Liam never reworked it into a live idea.

Wow...8th?

Cafe Del Mar is 1st? Sure, it's a nice track but it doesn't hold a turd up to SMBU. I wonder what sort of demographic actually voted? I mean, Daft Punk seem to be flavour of the month right now...and it shows.

8th is respectible! Dont forget this poll was voted for by the Ibiza loving commercial bullshit listeners that religiously buy every MOS compilation album plus the DJ's that wouldnt and couldnt mix in a Prodigy tune to the rest of that shite in the top 20! Also SMBU isnt a Radio One friendly tune and got banned from being played! Did Pete Tong play it on his show last night?

btw. i looked for that interview (from 2004) and found interesting quote:
Quote:
It would be cool to have bands that are like, electronic bands with leather jackets on, but with no guitars, no drum-kits, just raw electronics. If there's any fucking kids out there, I'm up for producing you, because I'm into the idea of creating an army against the DJs.


well, it seems like he has forseen popularity of Justice :)

Quite an expected list, club kids and some of the older generation seem to have voted en masse. 8th is pretty respectable considering the heavyweight tunes in there. But it is one of these lists where position is not that important, some will argue if a song justifies 14th or 6th and vice versa.

This top 20 shows a brilliant reflection of dance music history.
