Somebody helped me figure out what fucking song this is!

four years? Still? anyone? Google leads me nowhere.

you still offerin' that free gmail account?

ha, yeah, it's all yours if you can help.

Not Nappy Roots then?

Wouldn't the "google leads me nowhere" mean there's a lot of misheard words? So some of those lyrics aren't right. Let's see...

http://www.mp3lyrics.org/m/mack-10/do/ ("everything is everything" would have to be "do the damn thang" for this one, no Fleetwoods or chickens) ?

http://www.lyricsondemand.com/y/youngbloodzlyrics/downheyainthesouthlyrics.html ?

http://www.requestlyrics.com/read.php?1,692912,739255 ?

Not the Mack 10
Not Youngbloodz
Definitely not Trae and 3-6.
This would've come out between 90 and 94?

Pretty sure those lyrics are right. Pretty sure stone gossard was in the video or at least on stage for a live version. I want to say it's Outkast. It's not outkast. This has been bothering me for five years.

i do like that youngbloodz cut tho'.

OK, next time someone interviews Stone Gossard, we all know what the first question is going to be.

Is it Baby D, Slammin Cadillac Doors?

Nope.
It really did sound like an Outkast track, not bassy at all.
I can actually sing the song in my head and it sounds like Sleepy Brown is singing. The cadence for the chorus is:

Everythang is Everythang
It's all good
In my drop top Fleetwood
Rollin' through the hood
Everythang is Everythang
(garbled garbled), it ain't
Nothin' but a chicken wang
Shawty do ya thang

Seriously, this has been bothering me for about a decade now. It's my litmus test as "the thing I can't find out about on the internet".

I mean, I couldn't very well have made that up can I? I remember googling five years ago to find out what the fuck a drop top fleetwood was, cuz I don't know car culture so I don't think I would guess my way to that. Maybe I dreamed it.

Don't be too sure.

A while ago, I dimly remembered a Dylan style take off of "Ilkley Moore baht at", but all I could find was Bill Oddie's version which was a take on Joe Cocker's style. About a month later I remembered. It was me, one drunken evening...

Find Stone's email address (or info@pearljam dot com or something) and ask him? Promise to donate $50 to one of his charities if he answers?

The too short connection sounds likely: left coasters both.
Just listened to complete MIIS sndtrk and it's not on there.

Maybe it was a one-time live improv lyric :-(

OK, live performance on TV with someone from Pearl Jam on or near the stage: does this 1992 Lollapalooza lineup help?

Main Stage: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ministry, Ice Cube, Soundgarden, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Pearl Jam, Lush

Side Stage: Jim Rose Circus, Sharkbait, Archie Bell, Porno for Pyros, Basehead, Cypress Hill, House of Pain, Sweaty Nipples, Arson Garden, Seaweed, Seam, Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E., The Look People, Stone Temple Pilots, The Vulgar Boatmen, Truly, Skrew, Tribe, The Authority, Samba Hell, Café Tacuba, Rage Against the Machine

no, it was on MTV in the early 90's; in-studio live show as i recall though I might be crazy. I guess Boo Yaa Tribe is a possibility?

Just to be sure: which one of these people was it? (you said bassist and Gossard upthread, but those are two different people)

http://www.earyago.com/sites/dmeyer/_files/Image/pearl%20jam.jpg (big pic)

(first three: Stone Gossard (glasses), Mike McCready (used to be blond and a lot heavier, has some kind of bowel thing), Jeff Ament (sometimes seen with goatee, hat) )

wow 3/5ths of pearl jam lookin terrible these days

It was a one time watch over 15 years ago; I remember it being Stone, but I'm honestly not sure. Might be a false part of the memory, might by Ament. Mostly I remember the song.

Not your answer, but it's clear that Gossard loves being the rap king of Seattle.

Q: Steve, you've played with a lot of different people. What's the key to working with different personalities?

STEVE: I like to think I'm versatile enough to mix into any situation. I should be able to, I've had enough training.[Laughs.] I've played behind all different types of male and female singers and groups. I've gone from one extreme of playing jungles with 50-piece orchestra to doing Booker T. & The MG's with three other guys. I'm a very commercial guy, I love to listen to the radio. This Ace Of Base is driving me crazy. I can listen to it all day long.

STONE: You're not into the new Snoop Doggy Dogg, though?

STEVE:[Frowns.] I don't think so.

STONE: "Gin And Juice," the baddest groove in years. Lately I don't listen to rap that much but I did when NWA, Public Enemy, and Ice Cube came out. That's probably where I got my funk grooves... My playing is either second generation via Jimmy Page ripping off black artists, or it's rap grooves that are sampled from the '70's and '60's.

Oh Stonepaws

dude you made this verse up in a dream

def in the mood to listen to outkast now

Another shot in the darkness of your subconscious: Pearl Jam/Cypress Hill, "Real Thing," off Judgment Night?

Because apparently they performed this as part of the 1993 MTV New Years Eve special.

no, thanks though. Man that Judgement Night album is so so so bad.
I feel like the Pearl Jam thing is a red herring.

I have a song I've been trying to find out what it is it goes "bom bom bom BOM BOM bom bom bom -bup-pup- BOM *huh* d'goh BOM wakka BOM BOM BOM".

It's driving me nuts. Anyone?

Sorry no more drunk posting for me. Back to your Fleetwoods, mac daddies.

THAT'S IT!
no, actually it's not.

This is one of my favorite raps.

you have to give us more of a clue.

Seriously thinking about getting a Ten Club membership to get an insider's perspective.

It's $20 dollars - maybe in the New Year.

Still would love to find out what fucking song this is.

haha, is this the biggest ILM success of all time, or the biggest failure? 7 years is just amazing!

wasn't there another long-running thread where someone was trying to ID a movie about a dude with a magician's hat or something? did that one ever get solved?

wow, really feelin this love

Holy crap. Well done!

AIN'T BUT TWO WAYS TO GET SHIT
RUN UP AND GO BALLISTIC
OR GET WHAT YOU WANT
THROUGH PERSISTENCE

Great new screen name, Forks! I remember selling a few Breed records in my retailing days, but I don't think I ever heard him. "It's All Good" is indeed all good.

yeah
be like rocky and run up the stairs you know
put my hands up in the sky
b... big winner shit winner shit

i was just weighing out the pros and cons of not posting to ilx anymore and the tipping point in favor of staying was this thread.
so thanks again.

The first time I ever heard Outkast was when Stone Gossard played "Ain't No Thang" on the radio when I was 14.

"Alright. That was - that was Weapon of Choice and they're out on Loosegroove records, which is a label I'm starting here in Seattle. And right now we're gonna listen to something else - we're gonna be playing some more Loosegroove stuff later in the night - but right now I really feel like we need to go to Atlanta and play some Outkast. This one goes out to Dirk and Lonnie. See ya."
http://www.monkeywrenchradio.org/spr/19950108.html

that radio show is def downloadable.. perhaps it holds the answer

oh wait i missed the part where someone found it

I know I might be late but I too have been trying to figure out who sings that song for almost the past 10 years. I first heard the song maybe my sophomore or junior year in high school. It went like "Anything you wanna do, it's all good ridin drop top fleetwood thru the hood, everything is everything....(something,something) nothing but a chicken wing,shorty do your thang". To me it sounded like Jazzy Phae was on the track singing that hook. So I too would like to know & I'm a big music head...been that way since birth. But um yeah the hook keeps playing very clear in my head & it does sound like a down south song similar to Tela's "Bring em out" song.

Ntash916, it was identified a little bit upthread as "It's All Good" by MC Breed. Happy listening!

Thanks!!!! This made my day guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sock or no; i'm appreciative of any excuse to replay this

this is the best thread on ilm. it's like watching the birth of your first child.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnGXAUbqb2g

Still need to track down the Stone Gossard performance though.

If anybody ever interviews him, ask him if i'm insane?

a reminder that even when all looks lost, hope springs eternal

big winner shit

was thinking about this thread listening to the Reply All "Case of the Missing Hit" podcast.

heh, that's why i bumped this

holy fuck there is a video. prominent jazzy pha!

this is not what i remember it from. still positive there was a live performance that i saw. video captures the energy nicely tho'.
