Re: such a great year!

This is my objection too and if anything the recontextualisation of it in a Jay-Z track should have whittled some of the cuteness away but in practice it made it all WORSE.

In 1998 I hated it for those reason, now I hate it because it delayed my recognition of Jay-Z as great by a good five years.
