Summary: The Secret of "Butterfly" that no one knew.....
Comment: This song has made the band an incredible amount of money and here is why:
The awesome little bass line combo with the guitar stylings of the song sounds awesome right? One has to admit the rapping is EXTREMELY sub-par. We all know that's not why this song got popular. The first time I heard this song, I thought the groove was great and that it was just a plain well put together song with two good parts weaved together that worked perfectly: guitar and bass. It sounded really talented.
Here's the truth:
THIS SONG IS A COMPLETE COPY FROM A PART OF A RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS SONG.
That's right. Crazy Town COMPLETELY lifted the Bass and guitar part from the song "Pretty Little Ditty" by RHCP which can be found on Mother's Milk. There is only 1 note difference (I believe the rule of plagiarism is 3-5 words before it becomes stealing another's ideas) You can even hear the exact rip off from the 30 second snippet on ITunes. Go ahead! Listen to it! Look up the album "Mother's Milk" by RHCP and then the song "Pretty Little Ditty" I'm very angry that Crazy Town made so much money on a song that was based on all-out theft of talented musicians.
I had a feeling that that "crazy" bassline could only have been concocted by Flea and that only John Frusciante can create such a simplistic but heartfelt guitar part. This theft only describes the state of music today. Too bad.....Find your own talent you frauds!!!!

Summary: Excellent
Comment: This has to be simply the best I have heard in a while. I can't understand why this band is getting bad reviews? It has to be Jealousy. I have listened to this cd over and over again and I can never get tired of it. I can't wait for Crazy Town to produce a 3rd cd,their 2nd cd Darkhorse is great also. This is the first band that I enjoyed every song on both their cd's. Perfect would be my review. If you can't appreciate their music you have no taste at all for good quality music. I love Crazy Town, I have lived these songs out. I can't describe it but it seems like every song is about me. Unbelievable!!!! I want to see these guys live WOW.

Summary: Its not even metal
Comment: I remember hearing that after people bood them off stage at Ozzfest. This band was only popular with girls. If you have ever seen the Orange County movie you'd see why, because that song was idolized like other [...]thay year. Butterfly was unbearable and corny. thats why I no longer bother watching MTV. Hell, just to borrow something off Kommisar's playbook, if anyone of those fans listened to Sepultura, they would start to die a cold death in agony because the shock to their toxified pop music bodies would destroy them instantly and render them helpless. I recommend you stockpile some Slayer, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Pantera, Lamb of God, Tool, Sepultura and some Danzig instead of crazytown
RIP Crazytown (2001-2001)

Summary: the spice girls of nu-metal
Comment: Some kid just told me that Crazy Town is the best metal band. I would have killed him but that would be illegal and I dont want to go to prison for killing a kid. Anyways I looked them up on here to write a review and someone is selling this for 1 cent. That says it all. I was subjected to hearing it a long time ago in school all they are is a bunch of limp dick impersonators. They couldnt play a guitar if there life depended on it. They cant even rap for that matter. I dont want to sound racist (...) (...) Real rappers just laugh at this or they exploit white rappers like Feminem because they know that millions of braindead mtv addicted welfare wiggers will buy it up.
Bottom line is this is a complete waste. I hate rap but Id rather listen to real rap than sink so low that i would listen to this crap.

Summary: Great
Comment: Crazy Town broke onto to the scene with a rock rap mix unfortunately the world isnt quite ready yet for such a mix let alone back then so not surprisingly Crazy Town didnt do too well. However look at all the reviews from every person who has given this CD a bad rating and you will find prejudice in that they either favor nothing but rap or nothing but rock and therefore there opinion is biased and should not be credible. if you are really open to different kinds of music and you listen to this CD and still think its bad then by all means write a review on it but don't write a review trashing a type of music you don't understand because the song "butterfly" or the Band Name led you to believe otherwise. - Magik

Editorial Reviews:
|
From Run-D.M.C.'s unlikely courtship of Aerosmith to Anthrax's union with Public Enemy, seemingly polar opposites have spawned a whole musical genre popularized by the likes of Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Kid Rock. Crazy Town's The Gift of the Game neatly slots into the rap-rock category. They obviously carry some clout, amassing an impressive guest roster for a debut album, including godfathers of the scene Red Hot Chili Peppers on stand-out track "Butterfly" and KRS-One on the storming "B-Boy 2000." As debut albums go, this is about as accomplished and cocksure as you get. --Helen Marquis
