When this song came out in 1991, my gut instinct was not to like it because it featured country singer Tammy Wynette. I'm still not a fan of country music, but when I was fourteen it was near the top of a short list of most terrible things in the universe. After continuous airplay on pop radio, Justified and Ancient grew on me though. I didn't really pay much attention to the lyrics, other than the fact that they kept singing about some strange place called "Moo Moo Land." And I have to say I'm pretty glad I didn't, because right now when I Wikipediaed (if that's not a word it should be) "The KLF" it made me more confused than ever. I'm not even going to attempt to summarize or explain any of it, I'll just say that they were some weird dudes.
