Fred singing > Fred rapping. Just like Kid Rock, Everlast, Uncle Kracker, and pretty much every other white rapper except Eminem.

I've seen Behind Blue Eyes listed as one of LB's greatest songs in here about 12 times. How many of you are unaware of that song's original artist? derrrr ummm da whooooo???// Moron. I realize who the original artist of "Behind Blue Eyes". But I prefer Limp Bizkits version because the lyrics seemed to fit Fred quite well considering everyone trying so desperately hard to look as though they are not "trying so desperately hard" seems to hate him. Along with Eminem, Korn, Kid Rock, and anyone else who seems to become extremely popular. I hate people who always seem to have to point out the original artist of a song. It is like when I would come here and somehow bring up that I like 311's -"Love Song"... then sure enough, some dick would come along and be like "You know the Cure sings that song right?"

I was really into them a few years ago, I bought their CSATHDFW album and enjoyed it, and some of their later stuff, I haven't really heard a bad song from them, but I'm not the biggest fan.

There is way too much labeling in music. There are too many sub-categories(labels). I can't stand the people who base their taste in music on the label that the band has been given. "I can't listen to ______ because they are nu-metal (what a ing stupid name), and I can't listen to _____ because they are a gangster-funk-polka-fusion band." It's ing stupid. You people (and you should know who you are) should learn to think for yourselves and not simply enjoy something that someone else told you to enjoy. With that said -- and being a HUGE fan of both Korn and Slipknot -- I will say Limp Bizkit has become one of the worst bands ever. Fred Durst cannot rap, he can barely sing and I can't stand the fact that he feels the need to spell the band's name in almost every one of their songs. Plus he just comes off like a piece of ****. Like he's one of those "I'm a big shot celebrity so you" kind of guys. I admit that I like 'Three Dollar Bill Y'all" and a few songs from 'Significant Other' but I ing hate everything else. I'm surprised that they have lasted for 9 albums, well 9 if you count foreign exclusives and clean versions of albums, but still. Dunno if it was aimed at me, but if it was, let me assure you I don't use labels to determine what I listen to. I listen to pretty much anything, from acoustic to hardcore to pop-punk to rap to even classical. I just don't listen to Atreyu or Korn, anything else is fine. It was only aimed at you in the sense that I was agreeing with you. The labeling in music is bull ****. Why can't we just enjoy what the artists put out?
