The track opens with a sampled line of dialogue by Salvatore Corsitto as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amerigo_Bonasera Amerigo Bonasera] from the 1972 movie ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Godfather The Godfather]'' (a movie also sampled on [[Thirteen]] and [[Sixteen]]). The song also contains a repeated (Fairlight) sample of [[Susannah Melvoin]] saying the phrase "baby doll house", first used in the track [[Baby Doll House]]. |
