Beastie Boys - Make Some Noise

Video from YouTube (BeastieBoysVEVO). Pressing play loads YouTube's player. Watch on YouTube

"Make Some Noise" was the third single off Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, the Beastie Boys' eighth and, as it turned out, final album, and it landed in April 2011, ahead of the record itself. Mike D, Adam Horovitz and Adam Yauch wrote it and produced it themselves, with Philippe Zdar helping on the mix, and it sounds like three men who never learned to act their age: fuzzed-out beats, gleeful back-and-forth rhymes and a party that won't quit.

It gave them their best chart showing since "Ch-Check It Out" in 2004. The video went further, picking up where the 1987 clip for "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)" left off, with Seth Rogen, Danny McBride and Elijah Wood playing MCA, Mike D and Ad-Rock as the party rolls on through town.
