Critically acclaimed and one of Limp Bizkit's most adored songs, "Hot Dog", still has stood the testament of time as one of the most meaningful meditations of the human soul in the history of written word. Alongside Shakespeare, Milton, and the Bible, Fred Durst challenges our perspective on life and human interaction with his lyrics,
"We're all fucked up
So whatcha wanna do?
We fucked up me
And fucked up you"
I believe it was Pitchfork that called these "Groundbreaking lyrics that cut to the core of the listener. All hail the Chocolate Starfish!"
Few know that Fred Durst was in a very special period in his life when he wrote this. After returning home from his three year journey across Africa and India, he cited a very profound moment when he had when he swam across The Black Sea(The Hot Dog Flavored Water). In his experience he understood the true nature of man and God, and he spoke truly of our meaning in this life when he sung
"Hooo Haaa Haaaw!
Listen up baby
You.. can't.. bring.. me.. (bring me).. down"
Few will ever come close to this apex of literature and only some will be able to comprehend it's full meaning.
In conclusion, Mr. Durst stands above ordinary "fuckers" like you and me because he has a vision, something we cannot see, but we must blindly follow him as he travels on this musical adventure.
When Paul McCartney sat on the piano to write "Hey Jude" (one of the most overrated songs of all time), his intentions were no greater than to create a pleasant pop song to enjoy on a summer afternoon. However, when Mr. Durst literally humped the camera in the music video for "Take A Look Around" (Mission Impossible 2), his intentions were not for money or enjoyment (though there was much of both). He aspired not only to create glorious art, but to move us, to make us feel as if the whole world were crumbling beneath us, and only by "getting the fuck up" could we ever swing on the nuts of Fred Durst. And we did.
Farewell. God Bless.
And do it all for The Nookie.
