A good single

"While not the most boldly original title for a release, Fun Lovin' Criminals "Sing the Fun Lovin' Criminal" is a good single. The Hee Haw version of 'the Fun Lovin' Criminal' is a light-hearted country version. This proves that the guys have a great sense of humor. The 20 MG version of 'Scooby Snacks' sounds great. Compared to the LP version, it features a melodica and the mood is very dark. With the exception of some brass, the Rockamental version of 'Scooby Snacks' sounds identical to the version featured on "Come Find Yourself." While short, 'I'll Be Seeing You' is a good sentimental song. The single finishes off with the official release of 'Scooby Snacks.' In total, the listener gets three good new tunes out of this single. I paid around $15.00 for this when it first came out, so my jaw dropped when I saw versions going for one cent by Amazon's marketplace sellers. If you're a Fun Lovin' Criminals fan, you'll want this single.



In case you're confused, the band released a different single by the exact same title the previous year. The cover artwork was even identical. The other version of "Sing the Fun Lovin' Criminal" features the Stephen Lironi 12" Mix of 'The Grave and the Constant' and the Live BBC Evening Session of 'Come Find Yourself.'"
