100 down: The best talky intro to a song where the music has started...

(I love all the different interpretations of what he's exactly saying before he "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooh!")

EASE UP OFFA MY FOOT, SUCKA!

Same deal for MX-80 Sound! I submit..."Summer '77"

67. "You're the First, the Last, My Everything," Barry White
66. "Love Serenade," Barry White (the infamous "no panties" rap)

And 65. "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy," Cannonball Adderley Quintet

69. Sonic Youth, "The Sprawl." "To the extent that I wore skirts and cheap nylon slips, I've gone native. I wanted to know the exact dimensions of hell. Does this sound simple? Fuck you! Are you for sale? Does 'fuck you' sound simple enough? This was the only part that turned me on: that he was candy all over."

"The continent of Atlantis was an island
which lay before the great flood
in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
So great an area of land, that from her western shores
those beautiful sailors journeyed
to the South and the North Americas with ease,
in their ships with painted sails.

To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture.
The antediluvian kings colonised the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis.
Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.

On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends.
Though Gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new
Hail Atlantis!"

53. Eazy E - Merry Muthafuckin' Xmas

"This one's dedicated to Lupin Ada, and it's called .... 12XU!"

(O.k. It could be Lou Panetta..)

Yeah, 'sup. What's goin' on. Before we start this next record I gotta put my shades on so I can feel cool. Remember that law where you have to put your shades on to feel cool? Well, it's still a law. You gotta put your shades on so you can feel cool, know what I'm sayin'. I don't put my shades on so I can see what you ain't doin'. And you ain't doin' nothing, you ain't doin' nothing that I don't do. Let's get on with this shit anyway.

Yaa...you motherfuckers oughta let me go and finish this motherfuckin' album...Dr. Dooom! The name of this track is called "I don't want the motherfuckin' chorus"...whatever the arrangements are, we gonna go through, fuck all the laws

45. David Allen Coe -- "You Never Even Called Me By My Name" (spoken intro is in the middle of the song; really, it's a spoken commentary on the song and an intro to the last verse):

WELL, A FRIEND OF MINE NAMED STEVE GOODMAN WROTE THAT SONG
AND HE TOLD ME IT WAS THE PERFECT COUNTRY & WESTERN SONG
I WROTE HIM BACK A LETTER AND I TOLD HIM IT WAS NOT THE PERFECT COUNTRY & WESTERN SONG BECAUSE HE HADN'T SAID ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT MAMA,OR TRAINS,OR TRUCKS,OR PRISON,OR GETTING' DRUNK. WELL HE SAT DOWN AND WROTE ANOTHER VERSE TO THE SONG AND HE SENT IT TO ME,AND AFTER READING IT,I REALIZED THAT MY FRIEND HAD WRITTEN THE PERFECT COUNTRY & WESTERN SONG,AND I FELT OBLIGED TO INCLUDE IT ON THIS ALBUM.
THE LAST VERSE GOES LIKE THIS HERE:

WELL, I WAS DRUNK THE DAY MY MOM GOT OUT OF PRISON
AND I WENT TO PICK HER UP IN THE RAIN
BUT BEFORE I COULD GET TO THE STATION IN MY PICKUP TRUCK
SHE GOT RUN OVER BY A DAMNED OLD TRAIN

CHORUS:
AND I'LL HANG AROUND AS LONG AS YOU WILL LET ME
AND I NEVER MINDED STANDING' IN THE RAIN
NO, YOU DON'T HAVE TO CALL ME DARLIN', DARLIN'
YOU NEVER EVEN CALL ME
WELL I WONDER WHY YOU DON'T CALL ME
WHY DON'T YOU EVER CALL ME BY MY NAME

"Yeah, I was looking out my window when I heard this sound. Looked up into the sky, saw the moon turned to blood. Looked at my little brother - He said, "You high as hell, maaaaaan."

And, you know, pretty much all the rest of his songs.

34. All Saints - "Never Ever"

"At this moment, you should be with us, feeling like we do, like you love to, but never will again.
I miss you, my dear Xiola, I prepared the room tonight with Christmas
lights, a city of candles, fresh sheets.
We are all filled with dense clouds that have us sleep....."

Then the voices diverge into left and right channels and Perry starts up.

13. Death Grips - Beware

"He come to me with money in his hand
He offered me, I didn't ask him.
I wasn't knocking someone's door down, I was running from that
When I got out, I was in that
I was already through that, I had that
I had the studio, I went to the studio
I went to Vox Studios. I had it all, and I looked at it and said, 'This is a bigger jail', then I just got out of it.
I don't want to take my time going to work
I got a motorcycle and a sleeping bag
And ten or fifteen girls
What the hell I wanna go off into -- and go to work for?
Work for what, money? I got all the money in the world
I'm the king, man
I run the underworld, guy
I decide whos does what and where they do it at
What am I, gonna run around and act like I'm some teenybopper somewhere, for somebody else's money?
I make the money, man, I roll the nickels
The game is mine
I deal the cards."
