That was cool. I never heard it before.

On a somber note, My daughter knows that this is to be played at my funeral.

OK - sorry, this one might break the thread... but if you want awful...  >:-)

I actually listened to that a couple time over the last few days. Never knew it made it in Australia.

I think this one qualifies, not sure though.
