[edit] Remixes
The Fatboy Slim remix has the same lyrics, but more pop friendly beats mixed by Fatboy Slim. This song is also featured on The Sounds of Science which was released in the United States. There is also a Radio only remix featuring Redman, Biz Markee and Erik Sermon.
[edit] Music video
The music video, directed by Adam Yauch, parodied and incorporated scenes from the 1968 Italian spy film Danger: Diabolik. It was released in two versions: censored and uncensored, the former replacing machine gun blasts with that of a laser gun, and the latter featuring a comedic but bloody decapitation.
The video used the Fatboy Slim remix of the song. An alternate version of the video using live performance footage was also shot but left unreleased.
