I don't know if it has been said before. If there is another thread talking about it, tell me please.

I have read the psb interview and I'm very disappointed because PSB wanted "The sodom and gomorrah show" to be first single. It supposed to be one of the best songs of Fundamental. But EMI has changed their plans because of the word "sodom". They think this song is not going to be played on the radio beacuse of that. So that's why "I'm with stupid" is the new single.

I haven't heard "The sodom and gomorrah show" but what a pity if a good song can't be a single because of that. I hope it could be a third single or something if it deserves that because of its quality.

EMI blocked The Stonk because of its' allusions to fisting, the bloody prudes.

They could always release it as a maxi ep in Lithuania next year, so keep a look out for the import.

Yes, Lithuanians are filthy bastards.

Whats the point of releasing the best single first? The majority of people who have heard the album, think that I'm With Stupid isn't the strongest track on the album. That said, there isn't a lot of people who have heard the album but it's all we have to go on.

Anyway, whatever song you release first, there will always be that added buzz, no matter what the song is. So releasing the better tracks later on, you have something to fall back on but if you release weaker singles as number 2,3 and maybe 4, the interest could and probably will fade.

We have got a very good first single but by the sounds of things, there is better to come.

thats an argument, but I think EMI never ever will release Sodom!

The problem is, maybe "The sodom and gomorrah show" is not going to be a single because of a censorship. Which I think it's not good news.

I find it hard to believe in a day and age when a song like "its hard out here for a pimp" can win an oscar that there would be any qualms over releasing the sodom and gomorrah show.

Do we actually know the lyrics to this song? Is it just because of the title they won't release it? If so, that's proposterous.

there are so many bands which use censored language... and are still promoted
however I don't understand why all these changes... this album suffered a lot of changes, the singles were changed... it's not a good thing anyway

Stupid thread, we've never heard the sodom and gomorrah show yet.


And from all the reviews best on the album are

Integral
Luna Park


So there's no room for anymore singles, no way 4 will get released

Remember this?

LIL' KIM LYRICS

"How Many Licks"

[Sisqo]
Hold up
So what you're saying is, oh
(Niggaz got me pissed like Lil' Kim)
You want to get freaky again, aight
A-ooh-ah-ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Lil' Kim]
I've been a lot of places, seen a lot of faces
Ah hell I even f*** with different races
A white dude - his name was John
He had a Queen Bee Rules tattoo on his arm, uh
He asked me if I'd be his date for the prom
and he'd buy me a horse, a Porsche and a farm
Dan my nigga from Down South
Used to like me to spank him and cum in his mouth
And Tony he was Italian (Uh-huh)
And he didn't give a f*** (Uh-huh)
That's what I liked about him
He ate my pussy from dark till the mornin
Called his girl up and told her we was bonin
Puerto Rican papi, used to be a Deacon
But now he be sucking me off on the weekend
And this black dude I called King Kong
He had a big ass dick and a hurricane tongue

[Sisqo]
So, how many licks does it take till you get to the center of the?...

[Lil' Kim]
This verse goes out to my niggaz in jail
Beatin they dicks to the double-X-L; Magazine (uhh)
You like how I look in the aqua green? Get your Vaseline
Roll some weed with some tissue and close your eyes
Then imagine your tongue in between my thighs
[*Moans*] Baby.. ohh.. yes ohh!
Jailer.. open up.. cell, block, eight
[*sexual sounds*]
Alright nigga, that's enough
Stop, look and listen; get back to your position
Kim got your dick hard, startin fights in the yard
Hotter than a Pop Tart fresh out of the toaster
Niggaz do anything for a Lil' Kim poster
Eses, Bloods, Crips, all the thugs
Up North in the hole, they all wanna know

[Sisqo]
How many licks does it take till you get to the center of the?...

[Lil' Kim]
If you drivin in the street, hold on to your seat
Niggaz, grab your meat while I ride the beat
And if you see a shiny black Lamborghini fly by ya
(Shoom!) That's me the Knight Rider
Dressed in all black with the gat in the lap
Lunatics in the street - gotta keep the heat
Sixty on the bezel, a hundred on the rings
Sittin pretty baby with a Cash Money bling
12 A.M. I'm on the way to club
After three bottles I'll be ready to f***
Some niggaz even put me on their grocery lists
Right next to the whip cream and box of chocolates
Designer pussy, my shit come in flavors
High-class taste niggaz got to spend paper
Lick it right the first time or you gotta do it over
Like it's rehearsal for a Tootsie commercial

[Sisqo]
How many licks does it take till you get to the center of the?...

Do I need to say more?

Are you sure about that? If an album contains a lot of single potential, they will release them. PSB have always released a song if they think it will chart well.
