[grellimichael]

@TrueBrothers666 42 street in new york is called forty duece, it used to be all peep shows and nude establishments. nyc cleaned it up and it is now time square.

[toddster812]

I been stuck on this for months. It don't get no better than this. Damn, look at them they are a team. I found this song on a CD I bought a few years ago. Had it put away. When my neighbors were keeping me up with their noise for a month I got to looking for something with some bass so I could wake them up in the morning. Now I'm not so mad at my neighbors because I found an awesome song. I gotta say, this is one of the best tunes ever! Beasties do rock well, I must say!!

[RupertsNanny]

@toddster812 HELL YEAH!! best band ever and phenomenal performance. always gives me chills when i watch it. so glad you discovered it!!!

[easydp]

@RupertsNanny ah, its like guitars have pedals for tones, distortions, wah's etc etc and etc some more- vocals are so unquie to the vocalist. everyone of use has a different one. the great instrument that not all of us realise we have. get recording people. daveyP

[nickleporno]

@fighterace34 THEY AINT LIP SINGIN

[treenut999]

@fighterace34: I was thinking that, and hoping they weren't....but if you listen at 1minute 45 seconds 'the best I caaaaaaaaan'....now the 'can' should be shorter in the original, but think he longed it out there, making it live!

Awesome Live performance. Love the lyrics and the message behind the song, by some of New York's prodigal sons. Thanks for uploading!

[treenut999]

@fighterace34:soz i mean from 1min 43seconds to 1min 45 seconds....'the best I caaaaaaan'
