Beastie Boys – Sabotage (album: Ill Communication 1994)

This song is by Beastie Boys. Such a cool song, I love it. The music in this song is just awesome and I already told you I’m not into hip hop music but these boys are quite cool and they make the kind of noise that I like. When this song came out in 1994, I couldn’t stop listening to it!

I’m not sure what this song is about and I couldn’t really find the meaning anywhere. They do mention the Watergate scandal that led to the resignation of Richard Nixon in 1974. Maybe it is just a metaphor to all of the government conspiracy theories out there. Not really sure but I read in songfacts that this song was an instrumental only and the vocals were added two weeks before the album was completed so maybe there isn’t any meaning to the lyrics after all. Check this really awesome song...
