Yeah, as well as "Breathe" and "Firestarter," two of their other recognized songs.

And to say "only a couple" people have heard of The Prodigy is a bit of an understatement, even on VGC. They seem to be one of the electronica groups that the average music fan associates with the genre, and it's also one of those names that people are able to name off the top of their heads when they think "electronica" or "techno", with the likes of Daft Punk.

Nonetheless, they have some great stuff. I'd really recommend getting their new(er) album, AONO: Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned if you can find it. Music For the Jilted Generation is also good, and Fat of the Land is a must for some of their classics.

I said a couple people not only a couple.
But I guess I didn't know they were that popular.

This reminded me, are you still up for sending me some electronica and the like, Corrupt? I'm actually interested in hearing it.

That's okay, I didn't know they still made music.

Well, do you have MSN? If so, go ahead and add the name I have on my profile.

I just remembered how funny that video for "Smack My Bitch Up" is, too. I wish it got more airplay. It was voted as the most controversial video ever on MTV.

Done.
