"Counterfeit" is a song by Limp Bizkit from their debut album Three Dollar Bill, Yall$. It was the band's first single, and hit among fans (although it was Faith that brought the group into the mainstream).
The song can be traced back to one of the band's early demo tapes in 1996, but it could have been written as early as 1995, when guitarist Wes Borland first joined.
There were two single releases. The first was 'Counterfeit/Nobody Loves me' in 1997, and the second was 'Counterfeit Countdown' in 1999, when the group suddenly broke through into the mainstream. 'Counterfeit Countdown' contained a collection of remixes of the song. DJ Lethal's Extreme Guitar Remix of the song later made it onto New Old Songs, the band's remix album.
The song was later part of the band's 2005 Greatest Hitz compilation.
