20 YEARS AGO: Fatboy Slim - Praise You (Ad-Rock and Mike D Mix)

Released twenty years ago today, Fatboy Slim's massive number 1 hit 'Praise you' was the third single from his second studio album, You've Come a Long Way, Baby. This remix by Ad-Rock and Mike D of the Beastie Boys is an interesting reworking, and also below is the original single version. You can also watch a video looking at the samples used in the track.

The track is largely based around a sample from 'Take Yo' Praise' by Camille Yarbrough, with the piano hook taken from the track "Balance and Rehearsal" from a test album entitled Sessions released by audio electronics company JBL. Other samples were lifted from "It's a Small World" from the Disneyland Records-released album Mickey Mouse Disco and the theme from the cartoon series Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids.
