A comment elsewhere in a discussion of effective ammunition planted today's earworm in my head.

 I bet you can figure out what the comment said.

This extended cut video includes the original video, which was edited on MTV, with live concert shots.

One thing I didn't know until I was doing the usually-inadvisable reading of the comments is that the song "Twilight Zone" was inspired by the original Jason Bourne novel.

Also, I can confirm that the extended cut is an excellent driving song in the middle of the night when there are no others vehicles out there...

The day... The music...

It was such a Big Deal when it came out.

This probably my favorite by Pink Floyd. I tried to get it played at my retirement party ("Hail and Farewell"), but hey had it at one of the "clubs" in Ko Song Dong, outside of Camp Stanley, and ajashi didn't have any Floyd on the shelf.  I'm not sure he had any rock, certainly not any classic rock.

When I first heard the fiddle I thought the radio was going out...
