[@MrPolythenepatrick]

Wiki says - The chorus of the song "$300" is a sample of a Chris Rock joke; singer Mike Doughty heard the joke which is backmasked on Rock's Roll With the New. Curious, Doughty recorded it into his ASR-10 sampler with the intention of simply reversing it and seeing what the joke was, and wrote the song around what he found there. The song was used in the House episode "The Softer Side" in 2009.

FWI--the voice-over "how much would you get for 300 dollars a week" is Chris Rock...deepened down in pitch. cool.

No, it's played by frontman Mike Doughty

[@Quantumtalesxx]

The song begins with 100% musical chords.

[@defaultusername123]

That is VERY close but Tom Waits version is more of a scale from down to up while this is more of a loop of what sounds kinda like a low tuned mandalin.

[@Manman3872]

I liked the song more when i didn't know the lyrics. The "how much, she said for 300 dollars id do it" sounded much better when i didn't know what it said and it just sounded like caveman gibberish.

The "How much? She said "For $300 dollars, ill do it." is a clip from a Chris Rock comedy special about how he said if hes gonna pay a hooker 300 dollars to have sex she better paint his house too. I guess Mike thought it was funny enought to write a song about.

Love THis song. I even heard it on HOuseMD(tv show) though it starts to su(fore me) at 2:05. im gonna make a home made version with the bad parts(for me) starts. you can do it yourself with most audio apps. if you're broke u can use "Audacity" its a free audio-editor/multi track recorder.

the band Soul Coughing consists of a singer/frontman, a drummer, an upright bassist, and a sampler. consists entirely of samples? you could say that's an overstatement. you could say it's ignorance, misinformation. you could say it's trolling. or you could say it's a LIE. which one are you?
