    Awesome

    This song contains 3 of the 'holy rules' of good music:

    1. The mid song pause

    2. Cute girls and loud guitars

    3. The sudden ending.

    Its a great song, can anyone else add more 'holy rules' or find a song with more than 3 of the rules in it.

    Jay's almost right about Swamp Thing. But if we're talking The Chameleons, then the original arrangement of Tears from the Strange Times album is one of the best songs ever written.

    OK, think we can condense that as:

    4. Quiet innocuous intro, followed by full on rock out!
