Samples

  • "Legend in My Spare Time" - "Do What You Want to Do" by T-Connection
  • "Mama Say" - "Goodhumor Man" by Blue Mitchell and "Save a Prayer" by Duran Duran
  • "One Way" - "Boogie Shoes" by KC & The Sunshine Band and "Theme from Sanford & Son" by Quincy Jones

  • "Rang Dang" - "White Lines" by Grandmaster Flash and "Not to Touch the Earth" by the Doors

"One Way" contains a sample from "Theme From Sanford & Son," and initially, according to the band's website prior to 2004, resulted in a cease and desist from Quincy Jones (it was ultimately resolved - Jones received co-writing credit, and the song remains on the album. The band has described the album as "the one that resulted in the most cease and desist orders in the band's history.").

"She Ain't Got No Legs" originally contained a sample from The Cure, but frontman Robert Smith refused to grant permission.

"Coo Coo Ca Choo" originally contained a sample from "Sunshine of Your Love" by Cream, but guitarist Eric Clapton refused permission, so had to be replaced with a live guitar part (played by Lüpüs Thünder).

Famous quotes containing the word samples:

    Good government cannot be found on the bargain-counter. We have seen samples of bargain-counter government in the past when low tax rates were secured by increasing the bonded debt for current expenses or refusing to keep our institutions up to the standard in repairs, extensions, equipment, and accommodations. I refuse, and the Republican Party refuses, to endorse that method of sham and shoddy economy.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
