You've Come a Long Way Baby

Some great songs from my high school days, but didn’t care for the rest of it.

This probably deserves a higher rating but it simply isn't my style of music.

terrible

Eh, it’s like Moby on acid

Not an album but rather a collection of repetitive singles and half-cooked club tracks, some of which capture a short moment in music history when Fatboy Slim was relevant. I award this one jump rope. You figure out why. 𓀪

I used to think that Fatboy Slim was a joke. Like a prank on orchestrated by Spike Jonze. It wasn't hard to imagine him moonlighting as a half-assed DJ / Producer. The Director has broad endeavors. He was behind Jackass, is silent partner for Girl skateboards, had a major part in the Three Kings film, and was plugged in in to the 90's music scene while making super-creative, award winning music videos. Yeah, I was under the impression that FBS was Spike Jonze who was made terrible music to pair with creative visions for MTV. It seemed totally plausible. I don't think I was the only person to believe this or consider the possibility that our celebrities have alter egos. Andy Kaufman and Tony Clifton comes to mind, and later, Andrew WK who was accused of doing something similar. Anyhow, I really dismissed that this was real music created with earnest effort. I think SJ had some great videos, was super talented and very creative. Somehow, it never occurred to me that if SJ had created music, it would've sounded a lot better than this.

Never been a fan

Area man goes on a murderous rampage after enduring Fatboy Slim's You've Come a Long Way, Baby. Is acquitted of all charges.

Fat Boy NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE!

I'm sorry, but this album was torturous. I'm not a fan of this type of music, but I did my best to approach it with an open mind. I say that even though I hate Praise You with a passion. I think my issue with this album is the constant repetition of one bar over and over again for way too long. A song would start, I would start to get into what he's laying down and then BAM, a zillion bars in a row of druggiedruggiedruggiedruggiedruggiedruggieddruggiedruggiedruggie. Nope. Pulls me right out of the groove and just pisses me off. But again, not my style.And seriously an entire song of just repeating the line Fat Boy Slim Fucking in Heaven. And that's it? I wanted to tap out on this one so damned many times.

I’m sorry if anyone disagrees, but it’s not like it’s bad for it’s genre. Like it’s cool and stuff it’s just not my style of music. I don’t like that it didn’t really contain music and no music is okay sometimes if you provide instruments but there’s no instruments either. Like I don’t really listen to this type or genre of music but I think it could be good for its genre is just not good for me.

I don't like this music, it's not for me. Sorry.

Ish, vraiment pas mon genre. Praise You est pas pire, mais that's it pour moi.

Eh boy. Je peux comprendre que cet album soit dans la liste à cause de Rockafeller Skank. À sa sortie c’était un nouveau son, une nouvelle façon de faire. Mais tout un album, c’est redondant et vite ennuyant.

I was going to give it 2 stars and then Acid 8000 came on. It’s a painful reminder that this album is chock full or idiotic repeating phrases with little else other than throbbing beats that may be danceable but not enjoyable. Intolerable.

2/10. Felt so long because very song was so damn repetitive.

Garbage

Basically unlistenable after 3 songs

Not my style

Repetitive garbage.

Je suis vraiment pas fan...

Maybe, if you give me some ecstasy and get me on a dance floor with a bunch of beautiful scantily clad ladies I'd really enjoy the hell out of this. More likely though, I would just throw up on them and it's more likely to be the music than the drugs. As a disclaimer I do like some DJ music (and am really looking forward to DJ Shadow if he's on this list)

jesus this is annoying. sorry :D - i've heard tons of snippets of some of these songs for years, and as it turns out that's as much as i can take. Most of these "songs" start out fine for 10-20 seconds and stay the same throughout, only adding more horribly unimaginative editing or absolutely terrible vocal loops/drones throughout. I do like electronic music but not annoying/repetitive noise that reminds me of old records that were skipping. In my insistence of listening to the entirety of every one of these 1001 albums I kept it on but it was borderline torture. hard hard pass.

The album feels like an inside joke. Maybe other listeners are in on it, maybe only the artist is in on it. I don't know, but I do know that I most certainly am not in on it. There are parts that I like, but there is no song that I like all the way through. "Rockafeller Skank" is probably my favorite track on the album, but it is almost three minutes too long for my taste. I probably won't listen to any of it again. 2/10.

techno is not my thing

It was really claustrophobic

Repetitivo demais...

eh
