A little wiki:


You've Come a Long Way, Baby is the second studio album by Fatboy Slim and was released in 1998.

The album has a Parental Advisory because of the third track "######ing In Heaven" (titled simply "In Heaven" on the North American edition of the album) which has DJ Freddy Fresh repeating the words "Fatboy Slim Is ######ing In Heaven" 108 times. The track was re-named and re-edited to "'Illin in Heaven" for the clean version of the record. The UK album cover, which featured an obese man (identified in the CD inlay as Mark Johnson), was changed for the American release to a cover featuring shelves of vinyl records.

The title of the album is a marketing slogan for Virginia Slims cigarettes, similar to Fatboy Slim’s first album which borrowed DuPont’s Better Living Through Chemistry tagline for its title.

In 2000 Q magazine placed You've Come a Long Way, Baby at number 81 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever.

"The Rockafeller Skank"



"Praise You"
