Make that "Loops of Fury" on the Nissan commercial, not "Hoops."

stash and I were listening to satellite radio earlier and we heard something by the Beatvandals called 99 Problems. It was some guy rapping over Leave Home, rather amusing and would like to hear it again. I was too engrossed with hearing the Chems on the radio to pay attention to the lyrics. X-D

I forgot to post before, but a few months back visiting my girlfriend at the University of Oregon in Eugene, I heard "Block Rockin' Beats" coming out of one of the dorm room windows. I thought, great, another freshman got his hands on a classic single. Then I heard Dig Your Own Hole come on...
I had to smile that people younger than twenty are still picking up on Chems albums.
Oh yeah, I also heard Hoops on a car commercial the other day... Nissan I think, though someone undoubtedly already posted about it.
Actually, I'm younger then twenty :o And, on the page before this one I mentioned about that Nissan commercial. Its really cool that they use a b-side for it I think :D

I just stumbled on this:
(10-05-2006) The Song They Wish They'd Written -- U2.com*
The Song They Wish They'd Written
Larry cites Block Rockin' Beats by The Chemical Brothers. Adam cites Back to LIfe by Soul II Soul. Edge cites Wonderwall by Oasis. Bono cites ... er... seven tracks by seven artists.
To mark twenty years of Q Magazine the band are on the cover of the British music monthly (one of twenty covers with twenty artists) and looking back over two decades.
In 1986 Larry recalls driving a green Land Rover, Edge an 'ivory 1969 Triumph Herald', Adam ' a Maserati Ghibli... or it may have been my Golf' and Bono had 'just bought a hearse for spare parts'.
Adam thinks the first album he bought on CD may have been 'Songs to Learn & Sing' by Echo & The Bunnymen, Larry recalls buying Aja by Steely Dan, Edge bought Midnight Love by Marvin Gaye and Bono can't remember the first CD but says Santana's Abraxas was the first album he bought.
As for the songs he wishes he'd written, Bono lists: 'Brownsville Girl, Bob Dylan and Sam Shepard; Unfinished Sympathy, Massive Attack; Live Forever, Oasis; The Last Song I'll Ever Sing, Gavin Friday; Lucky Man, The Verve; Almighty Love, Emm Gryner.'
More on Q at 20 here.
By the way, voting is still open in the Q Awards - your chance to nominate the 'Best Live Act' and 'Best Act in the World Today'. Who might that be then? Vote here.

Heard Block Rockin' Beats being played during a stoppage in play at the XCel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN while I was watching the Minnesota - Anaheim playoff hockey game.
