I saw themā€¦ I believe it was 5 times while they were on tour just for Siamese Dream. At the Nashville show, in the Vandy gymnasium, they actually played this, the b-side to I Am One. I was pleased.

I agree with @anon61221983 repeats are goodnesses.

Was it Walter Benjamin or Sting who said, ā€œDude, we can never truly repeat a song anā€™ shitā€?

Bothā€¦ it was probably both! :wink:

So are we still stopping at 1000? I kind of liked the idea of no repeats and having an upper bound. I find I am more creative when working within constraints.

Hmmmm ā€¦ no procedure for checking consensus. I think itā€™s fair to say there could be continuing agreement to stop at 1,000 despite the repeats and covers.

Based on @anon61221983ā€™s and other covers and repeats, we might consider the issue of whether a song repeated or covered by multiple versions in the thread should be gratuitous? Or counted toward the total?

Iā€™m being far more knit-picky than needed. Itā€™s your game. Do as you will. :slight_smile:

Games are more fun with other people. :slightly_smiling:

And I will confess to liking (some) knit-picky questions (too).

I like the idea of stopping at 1,000. Unless thereā€™s an objection, I propose that anyone can claim the 1,000 target was reached subject to challenge based on counting or related questions.

oh, man. I may as well just post the whole catalogā€¦
no, OK, Iā€™ll limit myself to one Gangstarr post. this one not only has the def rhyme and the def beat, but the video is superlative, particularly given the era:
