Nice to meet someone with ears. Its true, its the most stupid thing they ever did. I remember, when i first listened to sy and someone entered my room, i felt embaressed caus i knew he/she/it would be pertubed about the noise. Now i feel the same, but because of the stupid melodies - as if someone would see me dancing to Christina Aguilera. But i like to see how they enjoy playing it. And i DO like almost 1 Minute of Walkin Blue, 30 Seconds of Malibu Gas Stations, 10 Seconds of No Way - and some of Massage the History too.
