10!!! Rockabilly style done perfectly! I love it! And I love the whole 8 of your 9 lives line. Its great. I'd love to hear them do this song live! :guitar:
 
A real favourite of mine especially the lyric "well you dont have to look so pleased!"
 
10! Awesome track to open Your Arsenal ...and here I am!! Moz has arrived...with authority!

This song has teeth-I love the loud, crunchy, hair "tommy gun" guitars :guitar: what a great back-to-back w/Glamorous Glue.

It's the perfect stage invading song. Everytime I hear it, I'm reminded of my valiant attempt :cool: and subsequent failure :tears:

I prefer the live version on Beethoven Was Deaf, it's amazing live.
