It's cool or whatever but it's basically just a collection of loops and while I could imagine this went up at a 90s warehouse party, it's doesn't hold up on a casual listen. Highlights: Right Here, Right Now (ofc)

I don't know if it's nostalgia for the time period clouding my judgement but I felt like the hits off this album held up well. I couldn't really say the same for the other tracks - not a genre I gel with.

Stopped a couole songs in because I’m not a dj rave house music type of person

Franchement bon album. Même si c'est extrêmement particulier, les samples et les répétitions marchent en réalité plutôt bien dans le registre comique. La caricaure de l'égotripe avec "Fatboy sleam is fucking in heaven", et les skits en début de morceaux marchent très bien aussi. Franchement ce fut une assez bonne expérience, avec une multiplicité dans les sonorités qui d'ordinaire n'est pas au rendez vous

Some catchy songs, a bit annoying and repetitive at times but fun for the vibes

Not a big fan of dj albums. But nice

The gimmick of making it a call in Radio was kind of cool but the songs were a bit repetitive at times.

Some Bangers on there!

A few really good tracks and several that aren’t very rememberable but still enjoyable.

I’ve heard this one before. I think one of my roommates in college had this. It was a fun party record and several of these songs were inescapable throughout 1998 and 99, you’d hear them at parties and on the radio but also in grocery stores and on commercials, which is kinda wild. Everything on this still stands the test of time but it’s also pretty pedestrian compared to everything else that was happening in drum and bass and jungle and “electronica”, as mtv tried to call it, at the time. It’s a solid album but nothing special.

This would be higher going by the sound but it’s so repetitive I can’t do it.

I grew up with this album and always thought of it as incredibly important to the dance genre. The four or five singles are absolute bangers. That said, on relisten, it’s fucking obnoxious. What’s with that extended drone noise? Sometimes it feels like Norman Cook is trolling us

Most of the album didn’t stand out to me The last 4 songs are cool though I never knew he made Praise You I’ve been hearing that song for years

Si escuchas solo una canción, no está mal. Pero no es mi estilo.

Oh yea these vibes are definitely different! I liked a lot of the songs and how they made me feel like I was a hacker in the 90s or something.

Took me back.

Classic fucking album. REMINDS ME OF MY YOUTH

Only got chance to play it once, was already familiar with the singles but giving them a listen as a whole package made them more. Bit repetitive in parts but overall, great

I probably can’t judge this album very objectively, since it was everywhere when I was younger and I heard it countless times. Much of it is built from simple, repeating phrases, yet it works surprisingly well and remains very catchy. Praise You in particular still stands out to me.

I didn't know what to expect, having never listened to a FBS album in it's entirety. There were some good bits and not so good bits so I might wind up getting a copy for shits and giggles.

Ah, the late 90s, when rock was dead and electronica was the new hotness. It's a fun album and definitely puts you in a specific time. Do I need to listen to it again? Not really.

2026.03.08.

I'm not sure club records like this are meant to be "listened to." Each of these tracks is built around one great idea/sample that gets beat into the ground. The first 30 seconds of each is great, but the remaining 5 minutes of each is a slog

Sure, he does a fine job pasting together disparate snippets of music in unexpected ways. That’s neat. But to my ears, Fatboy Slim’s output lacks the key ingredient that makes dance music appealing outside the packed, sweaty confines of the club: the soul that moves your body and feeds the heart and mind.

Better than others in this genre.

It's just *fine*. Another album that I'd classify under "decent enough listen while alone but probably way better of a listen in an actual club setting". Some catchy electric piano/organ loops are really all that catch my attention here. 7/10.

Very funny, very 1990s, with a couple of classics songs. Sometimes it soundls too much like the soundtrack of a kid's bithday party. 3.5 / 5

Bought this when it was a new release. Hadn't heard it in years and it wasn't as good as I remembered

It' good. It strikes me that, on the one hand, it seems infantile. At the same time, it also strikes me as almost avant-garde. Specifically, the repetition of human words and vocal sounds until they become abstract and lose their meaning. The effect is evocative of Brion Gysin.

the repetition gets irritating and then comes back around again somehow, you pick up on these little variations high three though

Very fun, very 90s.

2/27/26 - Listened during "work". Not sure what to think. It had me rocking out a bit I can admit, but I have interest in listening to this kind of music. Top Song - Soul Searching

great singles, but doesnt stack up as an album

Som pretty iconic songs on here. Interlaced with repetitive trance shite. Again fatboy is cool for the era but euro house and 2010s EDM is peak. Listen to this not because its good but because its a testament of where electronic music started and where it was going.

Muuuuuy bueno, muy interesante lo mucho que puede hacer con estos samples; instantáneamente, cada canción es un BANGER. Tengo demasiado que aprender de los samples y de cómo mezclarlos de esta manera tan orgánica. Mis favoritas por el momento es "Fucking in Heaven" y "Gangster Trippin" Aunque me está gustando, definitivamente no me enganchó, llevo como 5 días intentando escucharlo todo pero aunque me gustan mucho las canciones individuales tampoco lo hacen lo suficiente como para poder tomarme el tiempo de escucharlo todo, pero lo estoy intentando, lo juro. sorprendentemente mi favorita de todo el album es "Praise You", me pareció hermosa, quiero averiguar de donde vienen esos vocales. Son de "Take Yo' Praise" de Camille Yarbrough. no sé como sentirme con respecto a este album, me gusta pero no me gustó la experiencia de ecscucharlo cocmpleto, no pude y eso que AMO escuchar albumes completos, este aunque amé los tracks uno por uno, tuve que sentarme unas 6 veces a hacerlo. 7/10, en el mérito de que me está dando muchas bases para aprender a samplear y tiene temas genuinamentes muy buenos, lástima que sea un género al que estyoy aprendiendo a entrar hasta ahora.

unoffensive

sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit

Some sick ass instrumentals in the background, but I wouldn't listen to it again tbh

I'd only listened to that once all the way through when someone had brought their cassette over a million years ago. The singles are all fun and that - maybe I'm associating them with the music videos? - but an hour of that without some heavy medication is too much.

"Fatboy slim? More like white boy retarded!" - Chris Rock

There’s a reason The Rockafeller Skank and Praise You are radio hits. There’s also a reason they’re the only radio hits on the albums. They get a bit lost in their own sauce

had solid grooves but kinda forgettable

Es muy entretenido la verdad.

Honestly a little surprised at how dated this one sounds. Considering it's damn near thirty years old, it shouldn't be a surprise, but it is.

Started the morning with a little run, and this was great. Got it my car for my work commute, and it almost gave me a panic attack. Classic Fatboy Slim vibes.

Too repetitive, aged like milk.

13# Heard this one before, but its always fun to return. Starting to feel like one day isn't enough for concept dense albums like The Suburbs from Arcade Fire, i didn't have the time to fully appreciate it, but that speaks on the quality of it. Fatboy Slim is an acquired taste from my dad, it brings nostalgia to my children days when i used to move like crazy to this music. I think all of the songs should be shorter because it repeats too much or to the middle end it tries to do something new and it doesn't stick. That's the biggest flaw in here, besides that, I'm constantly bumping my head.

3 stars Enjoyable with some really nice moments. But as many have pointed out, can be very repetitive. I’m sure that’s how it’s supposed to be for purposes of dancing and the kind of music, but as an album it makes me tune out.

As a kid, whenever I played FIFA 99 (or FIFA 2000, I can't remember), the "Funk Soul Brother" song came on when I paused the game and I wouldn't resume the game right away while my sister and I jammed out to this absolute BANGER. What a classic song, still an awesome track. Decent album too, albeit very repetitive. But the repetitiveness isn't as bad here as it is in other albums (not sure why that is)

it was fine

Good songs are good. The others notsomuch.

It was alright?

okei gleder meg! Ikke hørt mye fatboy slim eller elektronisk for den del // Hhaha det er gøy men klysete. Høydepunkt: Right Here, Right Now, The Rockafella Skank, Fucking in Heaven, Love Island

He was really onto something here. I want to give this a higher rating but there's just too many songs full of repetitive dogshit.

definitely a jammer, couple of stone cold classics in here. i think the genre maybe doesn't lend itself to filling out a whole album. favorite song is Acid 8000. strong 3

Rating: 6/10 A trimmed down track list would have really served this Fatboy Slim album because when it hits the tracks can be infectiously energetic and dancey and overall lots of fun. Absolutely mix this shit into DJ sets and party playlists because a few minutes of these funky beats would slap. I really don't mind sampled repetitions in electronic dance because that's sort of the point, there's just a balance. And even here it's fine for me. This veers a bit into the "too much" range where a 40 minute album of the best hits would have made an all-timer because I honestly think this ages well. It's fun. Looking back at the track list though I already don't remember its moments outside of the ones I really enjoyed. First two tracks are obviously awesome, along with Gangster Tripping, Praise You, and the appropriately named Acid 8000 would have made the bulk of a good project as it is. This is dangerously close to 7 as it is for me.

Gostei do ritmo, porém não escutaria muito esse estilo de música.

Never listened. Expectations: Low - Verdict: Good - Didn't expect it to be my thing but this is pretty fun. Gets a bit samey but each track is definitely enjoyable in its own right.

Meh - this was alright. It all just sounds so 90’s/Matrixy to me, and not in a great way.

While this wasn't my favorite experience with an electronic album, it was at least more interesting than other music I've heard of the same style. I haven't got much to say about it, it was simply ok.

You've Come a Lone Way, Baby was very polarizing for me. On one hand, there's some really cool and catchy beats that I enjoy a lot, and on the other, there's way too much damn repetition. Most of these songs go on and on repeating the same vocal sample and drumbeat throughout the entire 5-6 minutes they go on for. Some variation really wouldn't have hurt. On some of the songs, though, the sampling was really cool, especially with "Gangster Tripping". I also liked the use of synths in "Right Here, Right Now" as well. While not nearly as "hardcore" as some of the other songs on the album, "Praise You" was nice as well. Favorite Song: "Gangster Tripping"

Debated a 3 and a 4 for this one. The singles are all great, but most of the rest of the album ranges from forgettable to actively annoying. It kinda makes me wonder whether I used to at some point think all the singles were annoying too—other than Praise You obviously—but through sheer mantric repetition I have ascended to Funk Soul Brotherhood. Each and every one of us are funk souls, brother.

I have a tough time with these DJ records. And frankly, this is about as good as it gets but these songs are too damn long. Every song is over 5 minutes...and by nature it's repetitive AF.

Decent electronic album. Gets a little repetitive, in that most songs use a short loop for lyrics, but at least it is done well. “Praise You” is really good. 3/5 Might listen again

Intermittent sounds of the 90s.

Its highlights are better than the other Fatboy Slim album on here, but its messy almost blaring production on some tracks in the second half do make it hard to enjoy as a whole.

Breezy, dayglo, hyperactive and very late 90s. The late 90s were a positive time full of optimistic vibes. You didn't need to think too hard, you just need to smile and move your booty. And if this don't make your booty move your booty must be dead.

Favorite track(s): Right Here, Right Now, The Rockafeller Skank

Experimental, electronic, fun. Sample heavy with a lot of creative elements and bangers but DAMN it’s repetitive. Handful of skips on this one (listen to one minute and you’ve heard the whole song). But i did find a groove while cleaning and it grew on me.

Oh, the fond memories of listening to this album at so many parties around the turn of the century. That said, it doesn't really hold up as an essential listen album for me. Beyond the hit songs, it is more or less a DJ set recorded as an album. To a degree, it does represent something of a vanguard in taking that approach. One could sidle up to Moby next to him in that regard. That latter's Everything is Wrong would rank as far as I'm concerned, but then, it's not nearly as much fun as this.

I've always found him a bit formulaic, but he's very good at what he does. If you're in the mood for it, it can be a lot of fun. I really dug revisiting this today.

Довольно таки интересный альбом, возможно я бы не стал его переслушивать позже, но несмотря на это альбом хорош. Драм партии вообще шикарные.

My Rating 3.2 Fun but repetitive

Repetitive, but there are a couple of all-timers here

One of the better (and most influential and popular!) 90s electronica albums, but it’s also about the 50th 90s electronica album on this list that I’ve gotten, and actually the second Fatboy Slim album I’ve gotten! Diminished returns! This is a good album! Reminds me of the 90s and driving with my dad to work. I wish I hadn’t gotten all that other garbage before getting this one! A justified inclusion on this list!

Wow 1998. It would be a 4 if it wasn't so damn long.

This Album definitely contains some bangers. And "Righ Here, Right Now" is probably one of the best openers on this list. But, man, listening through this all the way from the first to the last track is really challenging. To me this sounds more like a greatest hits compilation than an actual Album.

Yep, being 108 years old will do that to ya.

Nostalgic album for me but his use of the reverb on most of the tracks came through as annoying listening now. Still some good stuff on this though.

Probably a bit too long for what it is but some great tracks here and it is a good listen

I think this albums greatest sin is that it's ultimately surpassed by the other Big Beat bands of the time. There's nothing that drives me to Fatboy Slim that I wouldn't be able to find in a prodigy or chemical brothers record. That being said, it has its moment, and Acid 8000 is a phenomenally fun track.

Holy repetitive

Probably not something I'd stick on out of choice and quite repetitive, but can appreciate the influence. Some fun moments.

Honestly some really cool sampling amongst all of this but there’s just so many tracks that are total duds - over repetitive and not in a positive way. That said there’s some absolutely iconic tracks here.

The genre of this album is called Big Beat and it takes a few seconds into the album to understand why. You've got these massive walls of sounds and synths on the first song, coming together into this amazing beach party banger. The Rockefeller Skank is similarly awesome. The pacing, the progressions, the vocal samples are all insane. I also love the funky hip hop grooves on Gangster Trippin (what a feel good song!) and the massive bass on Build it Up - Tear it Down. I also like the summery and Haze'y Praise You, but unfortunately the rest of the album isn't really as strong. Most other songs kinda feel like remixes of the songs I like, but without that extra bang. It's hard to explain but they just lack a little something, that extra swagger that makes the best songs so exciting. It's a cool album to put on and vibe but not all of it sticks with me.

although very repetitive at times that make you skip a few, it’s kind of undeniable that this album by fat boy slim resembles a true era of the 90s. i’m a big fan of the layering in his music. i’ve heard most popular hits like right here right now etc, but my fav on full listen has to be gangster trippin’

I have no idea how to rate this album. On one hand, I absolutely adore every single song on this album. There isn't a single song (Yes, even "F*#&ing in Heaven") that I don't love... On the other hand, also in every song on this album, Fatboy Slim finds an annoying noise that he insists on repeating until he's absolutely obliterated the vibe of the track. The thing is, it's such a predictable move, that it makes the songs so much less interesting because you just know that no matter how much you might be enjoying it now... Fatboy Slim is going to come in and ruin your good time. "The Rockafeller Skank" is one of my favorite songs of all time, except that stupid freaking alarm sound that goes on for... it may be 10 seconds, but feels like 10 minutes... and then the plodding ping-pong build up that goes on for an eternity... just ruins it. I prefer the radio edits of most of the songs for the simple fact that those breaks get shortened, and therefore don't completely ruin the songs. I love so much of this album, but I also never really want to listen to these versions of these songs again. So... 3 stars? I dunno. Yeah, 3 is fair.

Right Here, Right Now Rockafeller Skank You’re Not From Brighton Praise You

It is well produced and has varied sounds. It’s just that DJ loops and beats aren’t really my thing. After a song or two it all begins to blend.

I can imagine being a parent in the late 90's and having your kid blaring this 24/7 while you slowly loose your mind and question what's wrong with today's generation. This feels like it pushed the world of electronic music forward with reckless abandon leaving in its wake a mess of repeating samples and weird music slogans... Definitely has its place in pop culture, sporting events and video games, a bit hard to listen to this whole album while winding down after a long work week. I can't pick this apart too heavily though, this music is pretty culturally significant and undeniably catchy but might be a bit lacking in artistic merit. Not a hater but hard to say I love this album.

Another electronica album that I actually enjoyed a lot more than I was expecting. It helps that I actually knew a few songs on here, like Praise You and Right Here, Right Now. Both of which are nostalgic songs that remind me of listening to Big Shiny Tunes CDs growing up. That said, I was getting pretty tired of the repetitiveness of the album about halfway through. So yeah, a few awesome songs on here, but I still don't love electronica

I never thought I'd wander over to a more Rave kind of music to review a project, but You've Come a Long Way, Baby stood out as an exception. This album can only really be broken up with the hit single, and reason anyone even knows about this project, Praise You. Fatboy Slim is a DJ and also one of those Rave party songs that just flow really good kind of artist. That is super specific but if you have ever been to a party with a live DJ you would know it could sound like this in the 90s. The music is very hypnotising if you give into it, but the transitional bits kill any sort of individual replayability in a playlist. You have to listen to it all together or not at all, there really is no in-between. It is cool for what it is, but overall I was pretty underwhelmed with the album as it was good but nothing more than that.

Favorite Track: Praise You A fun listen, but not something I’ll come back to regularly. Great collage of sounds, but not an energy I love for an entire record.

It was pretty fun some nice unique sounding tracks I’m glad it wasn’t boring and you can tell the dude loves to DJ

Fun! I love how it is based in a nyc hip hop sound, despite fat bot slim being British. Really enjoyed you are not from Brighton.

buena producción, sonidos interesantes

Fun record. Great tunes in it! 3,7

It’s exactly what it is but I would never just put it on and listen to it

Favorite Tracks: Rockafeller Skank / Gangster Trippin' / Kalifornia / Rating: 3.25 Crazy that this went 2x Platinum in the US and 4x Platinum in the UK with over 5 mil copies sold. How far EDM has come! There's a solid Pitchfork retrospective by Brad Shoup that I enjoyed reading about how this album, and how the culmination of Norman Cook into Fatboy Slim all came about. For me, it's charming in a nostalgic sort of way. I listened to the whole hour-ish straight through as a background to work emails. In that environment a lot of the songs hit as a bit repetitive and they are all about 2 minutes too long for something where the entire conceit is that you can hear 15 seconds of a track and "get it." But the bangers still bang, and it all sort of fades into a toe tapping, if a bit mind numbing, mélange.

Way harder than I expected given I only know his groovy tracks

I guess we needed the whole album to get Praise You...That said, I'd probably enjoy it more when high.

Listened on a bus to Boston, so the bit from WBCN (it's real) warmed my heart. Good bus music, some great grooves, but I probably wouldn't have listened to an hour of it in any other circumstance. But since the Housemartins aren't on the list I did London 0 Hull 4 for the rest of the ride and that was great, so the stars are for Norman Cook's oeuvre generally. 3.5

Certainly inventive and some of the songs are infectious. Praise You obviously a classic. Not really my thing, but respect for this one and I kinda liked listening to it.

Couldnt remember what this sounded like, but I like the style better now then when I first heard it years ago. Still, it's more being impressed than pure enjoyment as it becomes a bit too much for me with some grating parts.

have to praise you like I should

decent workout album but not much going on

Beautiful voice. This will be getting a few more plays when there’s a long drive to be done

Some very cool licks but also some very cool licks over and over and over again.

I still have a soft spot the "Right Here, Right Now", and a couple other tracks still hit, but the rest of this album sounds like a bunch of meh 25 years later. I mean, it's not Clapton levels of "meh" but I'm not sad that big beat has been relegated to the dust heap as a genre. Right Here, Right Now - this still hits, if not quite as hard as I remember it in highschool. The Rockafeller Skank - I feel like this may be the only track on this album that is more than just a big beat experiment. Put differently, it also still sounds good 25+ years later. Fucking in Heaven - in retrospect, it doesn't feel like this should have made the album cut. Besides the sophomoric lyrics, the song itself is pretty forgettable. Gangster Tripping - the more of this album I hear, the less I like. Build It Up – Tear It Down Kalifornia - maybe it's just the big beat hasn't aged that well imo, or more likely that I was never a huge fan, but I can't find anything to appreciate about this track 25+ years later. It feels like another b-side that shouldn't have made an album. Soul Surfing - again, feels like we're repeating the same schtick. You're Not from Brighton - its just shy of 5 min runtime was 3 mins too long. Praise You - somehow this song feels like it never quite gets going, like a perennially repeating bridge Love Island - have already forgotten what this sounded like. Acid 8000 - this may actually be the most interesting track on the album.

Lots of nostalgia, but waning respect. This era of popular breakbeat feels formulaic. Introduce a sample for 4-8 bars, drop in another sample or switch the break for another 4-8, then remove the first sample. And the samples have this overall kitsch feel; a post-Odelay irony. “Isn’t this funny/cool?” Rinse and repeat. They generally lack musicality and feel. Rockefeller Skank is the best example; it’s just so annoying by the end. IMO probably the most enduring song is the closer, Acid 8000, precisely because it has the fewest samples. Down with Friuty Loops sampling in the 90s; up with 303s.

4 liedjes kende ik al! Ik vind het best een leuk album, maar bijna alle nummers duren te lang en zijn herhalend. Dan ben ik er na een half nummer wel klaar mee

I was enjoying it at first but it started to get a bit boring. I’m sure this is great if played at the right event though. Although Praise You has been ruined for me. I immediately thought I had gotten an advert before realising it was the actual song.

The shirt on the album cover might be the hardest thing about this entire project. The music is very repetitive. I get that this is intentional and part of the style, but I can’t actively listen to it on its own. It works well as background music while working or staying busy. I understand why it appeals to people, but it’s not really for me. There are some fun highlights, like “Gangster Trippin,” but even that starts to wear thin after about four minutes. 7.5/10

The opening one-two of Right Here, Right Now and The Rockafeller Skank is like a one-two punch to the nostalgia gut, and at the beginning, I had a feeling it would feel as if the rest of the album would drag on and be a chore, but it's quite the opposite: a fun album, full of playful rhythms and passages that reveal more than meets the eye. Other than the first two songs, Build It Up - Tear It Down rocks, and Praise You is a beautiful song that almost feels like it belongs in Madchester.

3.5* first 3 songs very good on here not too keen on the rest.

Every song is way too long. Iconic album and definitely is good, just not something I would sit down and re-listen to - I would re-listen to certain songs off the album.

#32 Banger singles but repetitive as hell

Very 90s I like it

As usual for Fatboy, cool cover & title, repetitive music.

Catchy første låt, mindre rap enn jeg ville tenkt. Mye trivelig musikk, noe litt slitsomt. Noe fester seg lett. Er en stemning. 3 til 2.

Wish I was hearing this for the first time in the 90s again. Just a bit overplayed to the point where it’s hard for me to judge fairly now.

This would hit so hard on a roadtrip. Not really the same effect when doing the dishes but it's ok

Some good songs, bit dated.

Some bangers. Many would-be skips.

I was working out while I listened to this which was probably the correct environment to enjoy it. Catchy beats, very repetitive

Some really fun tracks, but totally different level than Shadow.

I don't think I've ever sat down and listened to this whole album, but I feel like I knew the whole thing. This was really everywhere for a while. Still a lot of fun.

Some great beats, used to listen to this a lot back in the day. It hasn’t aged as well I would have hoped for me but still some really good stuff.

Maybe it’s just too overplayed but this felt very repetitive

Some good beats and good songs--"Right Here, Right Now," "Praise You"-- but, boy, do some of these get tedious. Lots of empty calories on this one. Still, as beat-heavy electronica goes, you could do a lot worse (see Basement Jax).

Actually enjoyable British techno

30 words across the entire album. It's pretty good despite the ridiculous repetitiveness.

A lot of these songs were so ubiquitous around the millennium that I can't really judge them, they are too familiar as background noise. However, the middle tracks I had not heard and I enjoyed them, so I'll extrapolate from that that I would probably enjoy the more familiar tracks more if they were new to me also.

Álbum bem legal de música eletrônica. Possui passagens bem variadas. QKZxHBB Khan.

It’s OK, not bad, not as good as I remembered. Definitely the kinda thing that’s better live.

Heard it said that a man's favourite word is his own name. That's certainly true of Fatboy Slim.

A weird album to have kindergarten field day memories attached to.

Generally not my preferred style of electronic music. Rockafeller Skank is fun, and I've had Praise You in my head for a few days. 2.5

It’s fun. But not one I’m inclined to go back to anytime soon.

Seminal big beat; you've heard a lot of these song somewhere, probably in 15 seconds chunks. Too repetitive for my tastes though.

Starker Anfang, konnte das Level aber auch aufgrund der Eintönigkeit leider nicht halten.

Gutes Album. Mich persönlich stört der ständige, repetitive Einsatz von Sprach-Sampeln. Beats sind toll, lockere Stimmung ebenfalls.

fatboy slim is fucking in heaven/5

Starts of great, familiar bangers, but just is so drawn and slow. Still, great fun and praise you comes in clutch at the end

Rockafeller skank is legendary

Some really classic hip-hop songs on here. Pitchfork: 8.5 Rolling Stone: n/a Best Songs Right Here Right Now The Rockefeller Skank Praise You

voto com os relatores desconhecidos desse site dolorosamente repetitivo, mas não é ruim

de fato, ruim não eh mas é repetitivo demais. mas é repetiti- mas é repetitivo demais. mas é repetitivo demais. mas é repetitititititi- mas é repetitivo demais. *breakbeat noventista intensifica*

Pretty average

nicht meines ...

Kaksi kovaa klassikkoa heti kärkeen ja yksi vielä myöhemmin. Muuten ehkä hiukan toistavaa ja tylsänpuoleista. Sopisi paremmin taas taustamusiikiksi jonkun asian taustalle. Muuten kyllä ihan hyvän henkistä kamaa. Tulee semmoinen positiivinen olo ja hyvä viba. Parhaat: Right Here Right Now, The Rockafeller Skank, Praise You

I don't knooooow

Fun album but depends on my mood. Have conflicting feelings about it much like the album cover itself.

quirky and interesting, which is rare for albums on this list! some song were pretty annoying though

Fukin in Heaven....hieno kielikuva Itse levy jäi junnaamaan m8nessa kohtaa

I am living proof that being in your very early 20s at the same time Fatboy Slim was hitting big whilst totally totally ignoring Fatboy Slim will not seriously impair your future. Praise You is good though.

This is technically my first real electronic album, and it’s coming from a very familiar name Fatboy Slim. I’ve always known the name, but never actually listened to his music so this felt like the perfect chance to do so. This album is pure late 90s electronic chaos. Apparently the style is called Big Beat / Acid House? Interesting. Norman Cook basically took big beat and blew it up into something massive with breakbeats, basslines, goofy vocal samples, and huge festival sized hooks. The whole thing reminded me of an influence on Daft Punk and The Prodigy, that’s the closest artists I’ve heard that matches this style. It is repetitive, but it builds on that repetition in a catchy way, and it stays fun all the way through while still having plenty of standout songs. The sampling work is insanely creative: drum n bass touches, chopped up pieces of funk, soul, hip-hop, rock riffs, random spoken word bits and a lot of things that shouldn’t work together but somehow do here. The music is very drum focused and has a goofy, vibrant energy overall. The sound choices are quirky and playful, and I can imagine how much fun this would be live. Every track feels created to hype you up. I actually knew “Praise You” beforehand, but had no idea it was from this album, thats a banger. I don’t think I’d listen to the whole album daily, but I know I’ll enjoy it whenever I’m in the right mood. The album cover is crazy too honestly represents the artist name pretty well. Favourite tracks: Right Here Right Now, The Rockafeller Skank, Fucking in Heaven, Gangster Trippin, Kalifornia, Soul Surfing, Praise You.

una parola: swag

I probably should’ve enjoyed this more, but idk I was just annoyed mostly. Not for me

A big beat classic, enjoyable.

Very repetitive but I could listen to again

An instant classic electronic album. The sampling and transitions were really fun, lots of catchy tracks. I wasn't too familiar with Fatboy Silm, but turns out I already knew like 3 songs on the album.

I listened to this album twice. At first I was impressed by the high-quality production, and even on a second listen I still appreciate how clean and polished it sounds. However, what didn’t stick with me was the songwriting itself. Tracks like "Right Here, Right Now", "The Rockafeller Skank", and "Gangster Trippin" are undeniable classics; they showcase how well Fatboy Slim can take repetitive samples and make them feel exciting, which is genuinely impressive. But those (and "Praise You", which doesn't do it for me) are also the tracks I already knew going in. Beyond them, the rest of the album didn’t really compel me to explore more of Fatboy Slim’s catalog. The remaining songs sound good from a production standpoint, but they felt repetitive and ultimately not memorable, which kept them from making a lasting impression. Ultimately, great production couldn’t save songs that simply didn’t stay with me, and while I can still understand why it's on the 1001 Albums list, I find myself listening to The Avalanches now.

I understand I might be off on my own here but this album is great fun. One of music's primary functions to make your body move and that's here in spades. It drags a little towards the end but that's a criticism of electronic dance music in general, my endorphins and dopamine have a time limit. Hilarious album cover too. Someone do a where is he now with the little fella wearing the t-shirt.

Fatboy has an excellent sense of when to throw a hook in before a sample becomes too repetitive. Beats so big, you gonna be banging your head on the ceiling.

Few undeniable classics on here but gets boring after a while.

Enjoyed the music, the “lyrics” were a little droney/repetitive but id listen to it again!

some tracks great, some meh

This is a fun album, it a bit of a brain rot kind of way. Incredible mixing from a largely pre digital time. The beats are funky and fun. Electronic has never been my favorite genre though. Favorite track is the titular you've come a long way

Fun play with repititions. A bit much as an entire LP and slightly dated.

It was just ok nothing to write home about 5/10

whoooaaaaaa I had completely forgotten about this album but I did in fact buy it in 1999 and listened to it on repeat on my boom box in my bedroom to draw comics. and OMGGGGGGG the WBCN clip to start out Rockafella Skank "who's your fahvorite ahtist?" has there ever been a more Boston moment in the history of Boston?? I cannot objectively review this album because it is apparently, somewhat embarrassingly, integral to my self hood.

This album isn't necessarily bad but I do question on what merits it made this list? Rockafeller Skank and Praise You are decent radio songs. In Heaven was a good laugh if nothing else. The album cover with the fat kid is way better than the American version.

Praise You is the only song worthy of eternal fame. The rest of the album has moments, sure, but it's more of the same electronic nineties stuff and I would take The Prodigy above Fatboy Slim any day of the week.

This is not my favourite style of music. This one has a bit of a spark that a lot of British electronic music does not. Extra point for Rockafeller Skank, which I heard a lot playing FIFA 99.

Day 77 This was every house party from the year I turned 18 and for about 3 years afterwards. Every song burned into my brain even though it’s not one I’d choose to listen to often 7/10 for the happy memories. Highlights Kalifornia Acid 8000

Very fun! How can you not wanna bust a move to "Praise You", "right Here, Right Now", and "The Rockafeller Shank"? Favorite track: The Rockafeller Shank

oh hell yeah tracks are little too long for my liking, but this is still pretty rad

What a time to be alive. These songs are pretty good, and one of the sounds of the era, but they're way too long.

Сложно слушать сидя дома. Мозаика звуков, подходящая для веселья.

There's some really solid parts of this album but also elements that drag on to the edge of annoyance. Pretty likeable overall

Definitely liked this one more than the other fatboy slim record, praise you is a classic. Even more experimental but this time with the flow feeling more in place. Still not totally my genre but I respect it

Catchy club music from the year of my birth

Repetitive techno synth in combo with (is that) raps not my fave in the least, so the opening track put me off. Later tracks turned right round, so all in all I am a neutral fan of this selection. Listened before? N Saved to library? N Favorite track(s): Praise You, Rockefeller Skank -- if I have to choose ⭐⭐⭐: Liked it well enough.

Electronic music is not my favorite, but Praise You is great. So '90s. I'd save some other tracks to my favorites list to shuffle if they were shorter, but a few did get saved to themed playlists. Listened before? N Saved to library? N Favorite track(s): Rockafeller Skank, Gangster Trippin, Praise You, Acid 8000 ⭐⭐⭐: Liked it. Saved some tracks.

it takes a level of talent to make music this aggravating it’s not bad I just hate it feeling kind of kombucha girl w this one actually…

Ok, dragged a bit. 3 stars

Good album

Very 90’s x feel

There are 3 classic songs on the album, the remaining songs are lackluster. Hard to listen to with kids 😂

Loved a lot, but not Fucking in Heaven's duration.

Funk Soul Brother, Check It Out Now 1001 Albums Generator 144 (10/21/2025) You've Come A Long Way Baby is an album that makes me sad because some of the ideas and sample flips are so genius but others are so annoying. This may be the album thus far that has the highest standard deviation in quality. Songs like the hypnotic Right Here, Right Now, the iconic Rockafeller Skank (which gets way weirder that I imagined it would), and the great turntablism on Gangster Trippin' is interrupted by the obnoxious In Heaven. Some of the songs here are also experimental in a slightly unpleasant way, like Kalifornia and You're Not From Brighton. I was also slightly disappointed because the only other album I've heard that is in this style of Big Breaks is Prodigy's Fat Of The Land, which I think is great, but Fatboy Slim, while obviously having the production chops to run with the best of them, sometimes doesn't know when to stop himself from doing something annoying. But again, some of these songs are absolutely genius, so I guess this is a 3/5. Favs: Right Here, Right Now Rockafeller Skank Gangster Trippin Least Fav: In Heaven

An electronic album that stayed appealing, though not impressing.

It'd be great at a party, too repetitive at home though

Too repetitive, but 3* for the singles that came out of it.

I like Fatboy Slim's music, but many of the tracks get repetitive and go on for way too long.

Strong singles, the rest a bit meandering

2/1001 First listen. Fatboy Slim. The Praise you guy. Neve liked the song. The rest of this album however, I did enjoy and will come back to. Catchy. Fun. Druggy druggy druggy druggy druggy druggy

Great album

The opening four track salvo is like a best of Fatboy Slim for sure! It does tail off in the middle with three or four tracks that just don’t do much for me. I thought this would prove to be an album “of its time” but it has held up so well! Great album full of great big beat dance tracks!

Incredible instrumentals behind catchy samples, a bit repetitive but alright overall.

Not bad, but not particularly good. Not what I would want to listen to normally. 3/5

Praise You was on repeat junior year in college. Right Here Right Now was on repeat in every tv ad.

The first track was played to my old RE class on a lesson about evolution/ the Rockafeller skank I definitely know from somewhere (well not the ending) but I know the start- really should be called ‘funk soul brother’. They work and then fucking in heaven sounds like something they’d use to brainwash someone. Then I genuinely stop caring about this music… praise you is a good pop song though. So yeah good hits just not entirely for me 3/5… generously

Classics. Wasn't really a fan then, and I'm not now.

the tracks start to sound formulaic after a while - but why change the formula if it creates a banger after a banger

Meh...

Some big hits that I really like, but I wouldn’t choose to listen to the rest of the songs again. I must have heard The Rockafeller Skank a million times because of FIFA 99 on PC Praise You is genuinely a great song

великий альбом, мощная музыка, даже в 2025. Но пара треков вызывают недоумение и без них было бы лучше

I love my '90s electronic but I did in theory think the hits on this album were going to have more power than they actually ended up having in practice. They also kinda have their one central recognizable part (funk soul brother check it out now!) and they don't really know exactly what to do with the, like, six-minute average runtime of each song As they say; if you love a '90s electronic artist, don't listen to their full tracks Still a good, fun album

Didn't hold up very well. It gets repetitive and annoying quickly

Not a horrible album. Couple of bangers, but not traditionally my thing.

Huge nostalgia for this album, and I prefer it to Better Living Through Chemistry. Both are masterclasses in big beat repetition, but YCALWB has more bounce. On more critical listening today, this album comes out swinging, which makes it very front loaded. It’s also very long and plays longs, there are a few tracks in the second half that could be weeded out to make this more concise album with more punch. As much nostalgia as I have for this, it’s an album that sounds better when you are in Ayia Napa, or Amnesia.

This is a great album for dancing in a club. But for general listening, it gets too repetitive for me.

Мені 9 чи 10 років, я вмикаю FIFA 99 на PS і звідти після пафосної заставки починає грати The Rockafeller Skank. Супер кайф) Давно не слухав цей альбом повністю. Багато супер хітів, які було приємно згадати. Іноді потрапляються відео Baauer, де він розбрає його семплінг і завжди дуже цікаво дивитися за ходами. Не сподобалось, що багато пісень довгі, репетативні і часто хочеться щоб вони були в якійсь радіо версії та коротші.

Sampling and splicing are art forms that need to be more prevalent and Fat Boy Slim put them on the radar for most. Not really the kind of music I would listen to all the time, especially some songs with uncomfortable amount of expletives in them but, it makes for cultured listening.

if you know the singles from way back then you know this is a perfectly executed lesson in sampling and repetition so this is a perfectly executed rating between 1 and 5 stars

I liked it but the last two songs are horrible so that brings the rating down.

Contrary to popular belief, I think that Rockafeller Skank sucks and every other song on this album is waaay better. I'll give it 3/5 cuz it's definitely groovy and puts you in a good mood, but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to listen to this.

brighton have the worst gulls and the best fries. and decent music. although i consider this as a club classic and pretty good its not something i would listen to every day. 3.5/5

Out there, very left of center hip hop.

Maybe a bit formulaic but some good hooks and great grooves

Repetition rules but an hour of it can get a bit tiring.

Ok never a big fan

Reasonable 90's electronic music. I didn't like this stuff as it came out, but I've grown to appreciate it a bit more.

I’ve never heard of Fatboy Slim before, and so didn’t have any idea what to expect going into this album. I thought it was very unique. Some of the audio techniques I’ve never heard from any other artists, and a lot of it was very catchy. The different tracks were very repetitive though, I would have a hard time telling them apart.

Have you read the Big Beat Manifesto? Big Beats are the best, get high all the time. Fave Tracks; Praise You, Love Island, Acid 8000 3.1/5

Wow. Other reviewers weren’t wrong. Each song is very repetitive. Perhaps too much. I enjoy some. Repetition drops it from like to meh.

Really enjoyed listening to that for the first time in years ! Rockefeller skank still banging.

Great & novel in ‘98 but now seems repetitive

-mid -nice sounds though

I like a few of their songs but the rest of this particular album reminds me of the 80’s when we used to go to disco’s. Not sure as a kid I would spend the money to buy the CD.

Wish I was engaging in vegetable eating and hitting the pen stiller while listening instead of working.

This album kicks ass. It makes me want to go to the gym and rip the elliptical HARD for an hour. Which is the 40 year old equivalent of doing molly and dancing til 3am at the club. Still Not my favorite genre, but will probably jam this record again…. At the gym.

Probably a better album to take drugs and go dance to than to just sit down and listen to. That being said, it ain’t bad.

Fun listen overall, but very repetitive. There’s points that are really good but then just keep going on and on. The worse parts do the same. Some of the samples were really good. I just don’t think this is the type of album you sit down and listen to. Maybe one you play in the background because it’s got some great energy.

A clear idea well executed

Ugh! More electronic music again!

Literally me. I debated just leaving the review at that. Unfortunately, this sick ass album cover is not recorded by Spotify. Devastating. The easy confidence of this individual combined with the sassy t shirt stretched over ample torso girth makes for a truly memorable snap. Gets me ready for what will assuredly be an overly repetitive slog. Right Here, Right Now - I don’t love being right all the time, you know. I wish this wasn’t another dance music situation where we have to endure an hour of noises meant to be enjoyed in a nightclub with other things going on. Rockafeller Skank - This reminds me of huddling around the GameCube and skating around virtual Barcelona in the 2004 video game, Tony Hawk’s Underground 2. Played the living bejeezus out of that one. Should play it again. Anyway, this song is actually really great. So much more variety, and while it has that constant spine as many electronic songs do, there is enough variety around it to keep me interested. Especially that heavy breakdown around 4 minutes in. Hell yeah. Way to go, Fatboy, if that is your real name. In Heaven - Fatboy Slim is doing what? This is back to the repetition stink pile. A dumpster of annoying sounds that I’m sure was very difficult to put together, but it was arguably more difficult to endure for 6 minutes. Gangster Trippin - Ahh see this one is really fun. Just an undeniable groove. Shave a minute off for the dopamine addicted generation and you’ve got an absolute “bop” here. Build It Up, Tear It Down - Alright, the word that I will use again and again here is “fun.” There is a really exciting energy to all of this at this point. Kalifornia - Ditto the last track review. I’m losing interest in the track review formula, but I want to comment on individual moments still. Uhh. Well. Uhh, this is fun again. Soul Surfing - We’ve got swamp noises. I don’t know how else to describe those synth stabs, but they’re sick. You’re Not From Brighton - How did you know??? Praise You - An imperious megalith of nostalgia rises from the murky brine. The brine wasn’t all that murky, but hey, the megalith still rises. Is megalith even a word, or is that just death metal album knowledge rearing its ugly head. I love this song. It’s still fun to this day. The gentle singing is super camp, and the beat remains funk Love Island - A song as entertaining as the show that shares its name. Which is to say that it’s kind of entertaining in a “can’t look away from the train wreck” sort of fashion. Acid 8000 - About time we had some more drug innovations. For too long we’ve been friggin’ around with original acid. What is this, the 60s? Get with the times. This drug is super cool, you take it and just immediately fucking die, BUT you get to kind of feel pretty good for 2.8 seconds right before. It’s all the rage. This was a lot of fun. It takes a special artist to be able to instil this much personality into a record where you don’t even appear. It’s a collection of borrowed sounds and clips mashed into a digestible format that somehow has excitement and musicality in spades. Was it too long? Yes. Was it overly repetitive? At times. But not as bad as I thought it would be. Now that the “asking myself questions I know the answer to” portion of the review is out of the way, I can say that I had a good time with this. Not as good as whatever kind of time the man on the front cover is having, but I have a similar smile after listening to this Fatboy Slim project. 3-3.5 HIGHLIGHTS: Rockafeller Skank, Gangster Trippin, Kalifornia, Praise You

this had some bangers but was a tad repetitive

It's the best big beat album, it's got some of the sounds of a time and it's also unfortunately wholly repetitive, as all dance music ultimately is. It's not for listening, it's for experiencing.

I was familiar with Right Here, Right Now and The Rockafeller Skank since I've heard them in movies/tv over the years. It's a fun album, though I did start to tire of it toward the end. I have the same issue with instrumental beat/electronic music where the looping of hooks and music starts to get a bit repetitive.

que buena forma de conectar con la nostalgia entrando suave la primera cancion, me ganan los instrumentos de oriente medio. Cuando va pasando el disco se va haciendo un poco pesado pero reconozco la calidad

The majority of Fatboy Slim's most popular songs are on this album (apart from Weapon of Choice). And they are all bangers. They work better as singles, but it's still a really fun album. Overall, might be worth a listen.

good techno

Though I do dig two of the songs, even those two became irritating as they carried on and on and on. But FSB keeps this 3 instead of the 2 I'd have given it.

Ah, Fatboy Slim--the sound of 1998. While I didn't love the singles at the time, I did appreciate their music videos (especially Spike Jonze's dance troupe in the "Praise You" clip). Listening to the album as a whole, I can appreciate the FS vibe, even if it is not something I would actively choose to put on.

It's good dance pop. I'd never choose to listen to it nowadays but it has its place in the ecosystem, as it were.

Pretty fun, but not a 4.

Entertaining, but repetitive at times.

211/1089 - Eh, it's music. I liked Praise You.

the rockafeller skank alone samples i fought the law, david bowie and jay-z. this man was operating on another stratosphere with this came out

some songs i'm familiar with and ended up still really liking! kind of repetitive and stupid at times so i was starting to get annoyed and then a song i did like would pop up and make me like it again LMAO. the song with 29268373737373 fucks needs to be banished for life tho. would probably like this more if i was drunk at a festival lbr

This album probably would’ve been better if I listened to it in a club/dancing setting. Alas, I did not. It’s not a terrible album by any means but it’s so repetitive, not good when you’re looking for how long is left til the next song. Could’ve been worse, from someone who isn’t the biggest fan of electronic music.

Previously rated: Better Living Through Chemistry (2/5) ******************************************* Because we really needed another album from this guy. I suppose we had to squeeze the funk soul brother in here somewhere. I could certainly have done without "In Heaven," which I'd certainly skip if I heard this album again. The repetition is here definitely, but wasn't as annoying as the other album, so I liked this one a bit better. +1 star

Some good stuff for running or dancing g but I can’t quite call it 4 musically.

I knew the name Fatboy Slim, but didn't connect which songs that I already knew were theirs. It definitely is of a time and makes me feel a bit nostalgic. Much better recommendation than the previous album.

Nostaglic. But overall DJ albums aren't my vibe

Special boy

Very repetitive but I liked it overall. It’s nostalgic and fun - I enjoyed the listening experience!

I mean, what is there to say about this album, a wave of sonic electronica moves over you from song to song, but are distinct enough to keep you engaged and not feel like it is really just one meandering song. Also, I love the fact that he produced the album on floppy discs.

I didn't hate it. But I didn't love it, either. As a fan of later electronic music, though, I have to rate it on the more generous side.

imagine being arm in arm with the boys listening to Fatboy Slim drop Praise You in Butlins swimming pool, 2025. What a moment, and what a way he's come from this records release

Kinda nothing but a nice nothing. I don't think i'd listen again.

Interesting, but not my style.

Some big hits and a lot of repetition

can't give every album 4

76/1001. Is this album a lot of fun? - He'll yeah. Would you consider this to be one of the 1000 masterpieces of popular music? -...

This is the top result for the term “repetitive”. Unfairly so, in my opinion. The songs use a lot of repeating patterns but the album is pretty varied and doesn’t get boring. The hits on here are great, I fondly remember Funk Soul Brother and Right Here, Right Now, so it was nice to hear the album they were from. That said, the hits felt like they were a cut above the rest. The other songs were fine but not nearly on the same level.

Rating: 2.9 All I was thinking the whole time was that this sounded like the music of Crashbox (which I am aware came out after this album did), FutureCop LAPD, C + C Music Factory and Insane in the Brain all smashed together. If every song didn’t repeat itself for nearly its entire duration this very plausibly could have been a weirdo masterpiece.

The first few songs are absolute classics. I wish the same could be said about the other ones. "You've Come a Long Way, Baby" suffers from repetition. This is also the case with other '90s electronic albums. It seems that Fatboy Slim is only capable of a very limited number of great songs. 3 stars for "You've Come a Long Way, Baby".

I have this on CD from back in the day. It was hugely popular when I was younger but I'd go with an overall 3 now.

It was ok but pretty repetitive, which made the album feel even longer than it already was.

• 3/5 • A bit uneven, with some monotonous tracks, a few fun grooves and, of course, the one track that elevates it all: Praise You

what did i just listen to

Franchement sympa on enchaîne bien Et surtout énorme classique en intro ça fait plaisir

Its a classic for me at least. Like even in the intro to Rockefeller skank that guy is singing it to get his point across. I feel that in my soul. But as I get older I see too many flaws in things like this. At least flaws to me. Its alot of the shit I hate in other electronic music. its repetitive but it does a better job than most mixing it up. Praise you is a sick song but do I really like it or is it nostalgic? That's where im stuck mostly. Its good but am I just thinking it's good because it was good back then? It gets a positive look but I won't be the funk soul brother anytime soon.

Idk, another mid album. Beats started decent but then got noisy and repetitive. I dont even remember if i finished this one

Album 831 of 1089 Fatboy Slim -You've Come a Long Way Baby (1998) Rating : 3 / 5 It’s well known that electronica isn’t really my genre—I’ve just never connected with it. That said, this one was a bit more tolerable than most I’ve heard in that space. It had a few moments that caught my attention and managed to keep me engaged here and there. One could possibly even argue that the “electronica” category doesn’t quite fit this album—it leans more toward big beat party energy than moody synth landscapes. While it may not be one I'll return to, I can understand why it made the list. For fans of big beats and club energy, I’m sure this one’s a classic. Honestly, I can’t believe I rated an electronica album this high… but here we are.

Got bought this album when I was a teenager as a gift and enjoyed it so got a bit nostalgic when I saw it - in saying that, it has not held up to my changing music tastes and I struggled to keep it playing through

lotts of great tunes in isolation , but doesn’t stand an albums worth . 3.5

It’s a tricky one to rate, because at the right time and in the right place (ironically NOT ‘right here, right now’) this would be a banger album!!! Outside the context of a nightclub/rave or a Mitsubishi/volvo/toyota car commercial, the album can be pretty fucking repetitive and irritating. It’s a solid 3 from me. I had never heard the song fucking in heaven, but after just one listen, I managed to learn the whole thing. That track is such an ego wank. Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fucking 'n fucking 'n fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fucking 'n fucking 'n fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fatboy Slim is fucking in heaven Fucking 'n fucking 'n fucking

Very fun. Nothing absolutely blew me away, but good background music.

Uneven album with a couple of standout tracks.

7/1001 Fatboy Slim - You've Come A Long Way Baby Heard before? ❎ Would I revisit? ❎ I've heard the singles before and they're decent, but this sort of thing is so far out of my comfort zone. One of those where I neither liked nor actively disliked. I can obviously appreciate it's influence on the dance/rave scene.

Catchy thx!

Of course I knew Praise you. To my surprise the rest is not bad either

I mean, I don’t even think Fatboy himself would recommend sitting down and listening straight through while sober, but I did it and regretted not having spent my time doing pretty much anything else. Right Here, Right Now and Praise You kick ass and I like all the peacocking throughout though!
