Guilty.

Of course, he sounds just like every other rap/hiphop "artist" I have ever heard making a pitiful attempt at actually singing. I wonder if he has a teleprompter?

well... i just mean if we look at r&b and hip hop artists covering classic rock songs in the past... i.e. puff daddy and Kashmir. talk about destroying a classic... at least this double dried douche bag stuck true to the elton version... even if he does sing about as well as i do...

Jimmy Page and Tom Morello both played on that song, and both were happy with the end result. It's not near as good as the original, but it's not near as bad as Biz Markie's hatchet job.

His vocal performance was terrible, but I agree with a lot of the YouTube posters: He's just having fun. His band is tight as hell, though.

Edit- Just watched the youtube, it's not the version I thought it was. Says this is from the Chris Rock show. D

Nobody beats the Biz.
"Oh Baby YOU ,you got what I need.You say he's just a friend,you say he's just a friend."

Plus for Biz It doesn't hurt that you're in tight with the Beastie Boys either.

You mean that big buffoon is actually in the music business?

Only since the early 80's.

Hating on him is like hating fun. He's not trying to act like a gangsta or anything, just purely having fun. You know fun, right. It's that feeling you get when people say things like "constitution, liberty,freedom, rights, Ron Paul", except it doesn't always include an erection. Well maybe, if you'd had one of those since the early 80's you'd know who Biz Markie is.

I can get the same "fun" by going to an Altoona karaoke...

...and I don't even have to enable or support a talentless slob whose entire repertoire reminds me of a cross between a random word generator and a rhyming thesaurus program.
