I believe it's just 'Make Some Noise' from their new one.
This film short was quite entertaining though. Great faces showing up respect for the Boys.

But if you're serious, you really should explore some more; it's been over 25 years of BBoys tunes! What are you waiting for?
Paul's Boutique, Check Your Head, Ill Communication, Hello Nasty. Wow, what a string of sonic art.

- Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.

It's mainly "Make Some Noise". When the dance contest starts they play the instrumental for "Too Many Rappers" and when the cops (Beastie Boys) show up they play "Say It". All the song are from the new album.

If you're looking to start getting into the Beasties you should start at the beginning with "License To Ill". "Check Your Head" is my personal favorite but you really can't go wrong with any of them (including "The Hot Sause Comittee pt 2")

If you're looking to start getting into the Beasties you should start at the very beginning with "Pollywog Stew EP", then Paul's Boutique, then License to Ill. they had a couple marginal hits after that, but it was mainly just noise.

Pollywog stew EP sounds nothing at all like any of their other albums so why on earth would that be a good start?

Just marginal hits after that? Have you been living under a rock since '89 or something. Lets see, there's "so what'cha want", "pass the mic", "sabotage", "root down", "sure shot", "intergelactic" (should I keep going, because I can). Just because you didn't like them doesn't mean they weren't hits.

If you're going to try to convince people their other albums weren't any good because of the "marginal hits" then why would you say "pollywog" & "boutique" were their best? There were no hit singles off either one of those (paul's boutique has since become a favorite amongst fans but it didn't do well at all when it was first released)

LOL @ jbsimm2

you obviously know squat about the Beasties.

[–] jbsimm2 9 years ago

Actually License to Ill was the best. The ones you mentioned were good songs. Definete stand outs on the otherwise unremarkable respective albums. Every song on Ill was good. after that, maybe one or two an album.

Pollywog was great, becuase it was so different.

To me Paul's Boutique and Hello Nasty are masterpieces but all the albums are awesome.
