"Ready or Not" is the second single from The Fugees' highly succesful album, The Score. It contains a sample from "Ready Or Not, Here I Come (Can't Hide From Love)" written by Thom Bell and William Hart, and from "Boadicea" by Enya, for which Enya was prepared to sue for copyright infringement. She finally settled out of court. During his very brief stint in ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling), pro wrestler Scott Hall used this song as his entrance music.
