Two million copies. That's a lot of cheese. I still have this from my childhood. My brother and I played it so much that it sounds like, well, a stylus dragged through cheese. We just couldn't believe so much excellence could reside in one record. Wow. Two million copies. That's a lot of cheese. I still have this from my childhood.

I probably thought this was the best song ever when I was four years old, although I've never heard this version before, unless it's the same one Jason posted on his site last year. Meco's theme for "The Empire Strikes Back" isn't bad either. Anything “Star Wars”-related when I was a child was wonderful to me.
