    Two things: 1. a lying dickbag ruined it for me somewhat. And 2. It was the soundtrack of the 1991-92 UK season, and the picture faded out when Laettner released the shot. So it's almost taken on a cartoon feeling to me. But it is a good song. I just like the others better.

    "It's Still Rock and Rock to Me," Trey? Haven't heard that one. Two cuts off "Glass Houses" ... both superb, but I usually find "All For Leyna" when reaching for that CD.
