Also, when I think of Prodigy, I think of the old song "Firestarter" which brings me to a funny memory from this summer. In my time spent in London, one of my cousins flatmates was Scottish, and was a raging alcoholic who worked for customs, whereas he is the one who never should have been allowed into the UK. Anyway, the other 5 people in the flat hate him, because he's basically just a mean-ass bitch. One night there (four of us were in 1 large sleeping room) and this guy, Marc, starts pounding at the door, and stabbing at it with a huge ginsu knife, smashing plates on the floor, and screaming that we're all going to pay tonight, and that he's come to kill all of us...of course they'd suspected his mental instability and locked the door. Anyway, he disappears for a few days while we're all living in fear for our lives (not really, but we checked over our shoulder time to time) and talk to the landlord to get this psycho ass out, which happens.
But the referrence to Firestarter is that we hear him blaring that the night he'd come after us all night long, and in talking to a neighbor whos view is into his window, we find out that Marc had set fire to the curtains in his room, then considered burning the entire building down to get at his flatmates and I (my being there really pissed him off), but soon after they went out, and never flamed much, and he couldn't get them started again, not that he tried long, or too hard to do so.

So when you hear firestarter, think about me nearly being burnt to that song
