Wyclef Jean's remix of AOBTD

I hate it. They made the song about being a 'gangsta' and robbing people or something...
It's absolute crap. Infact, it's criminal.

"Haven't heard any hip hop song using samples of some rock classics that was good...
Actually- I'm still to hear ANY good hip hop song...;)"

I'm with you on that.

I can tolerate Eminem sampling Aerosmith (I actually like it because it's the first time Eminem is not just trying to draw attention to himself) but I can NOT stand Wycleff's version of this. As far as GHIII, nothing but fillers. I think they just needed something as an excuse to release music videos. And because they don't have enough Quee, they have to use 80% of Made In Heaven, some solo tracks, and a BAD remix (AOBTD). I try not to listen to GHIII at all if I can help it.

Judging by the response, the Queen crowd is generally not a group that would diversify their music interests to include hip-hop...and that's ok (although I'm not sure why some people take its existence so personally). I love Queen, but I'm also into some rap/hip-hop (OutKast, Beastie Boys, etc.)...it's just that Wyclef Jean and Queen are WAY too divergent to even produce a "so-crazy-it-just-might-work" result. Whatever...I'm still just surprised that quite a few people took the time to reflect on what must be a painful memory.

And GHIII...it's not exactly "all fillers" IMO: a nice tribute to Freddie and a collection of all that was harder to find or overlooked by the causual music fan. The MIH singles on there actually charted well in the UK; it added glaring omissions like Las Palabras de Amor, Princes of the Universe, and TATDOOL; and introduced a wider audience to such wonderful but tucked-away gems like No-one But You and George Michael's version of Somebody to Love. The title "Greatest Hits" may be a stretch, but it's definitely a passable album.

[QUOTE]Well, it's a similar situation for Aerosmith fans on how Eminem sampled "Dream On" in one of his songs[/QUOTE]

Oh yeah, "Sing For The Moment" - I like that song a lot
