Intro-Inspection

"Intro-Inspection" is a bastard pop song by Osymyso. It sets itself apart from other songs of its genre by putting together the intros to one hundred different, well-known songs -- all by different artists, no less -- into a twelve-minute long song. In a 2002 front page survey of the genre, The New York Times remarked on Intro-Inspection and called Osymyso "one of the most popular bootleg artists".

Intro-Inspection was never officially released, although there was a very limited number of CDs and Vinyl copies printed. It therefore never entered any official charts.
