Man, there's some amazing music getting posted here, keep it going fellas!

Here's a re-post of the REM song I tried to upload to Youtube last week, which got blocked due to a copyright claim. It appears the claim has now been relaxed, and the video can be broadcast with compulsory ads.
I did the visuals myself because I truly hate a black background
Here's REM's song "First we take Manhattan", which is a cover of the early Leonard Cohen song.

To fade away so young
With so much left undone..."

Shell stares into the Badgers eyes searching for that tell tale twinkle which would reveal a sign of weakness. "Is he bluffing , sure that Tom Waits Traubert's Blues looks awesome but what else has he got?"
Nothing was revealed, Badger just sat there staring at some other fixed point in space and time.
The pot was huge , too big to walk away from , it was decision time , all in or nothing.

"OK Badger, all in"

Badger smiles and lays down his hand.
Five of a kind! (Slowly he drags the pile of peanuts to his side of the table)

Nice John Hiatt curtis , thanks and keep em coming.

Manwhile back at the saloon ...

Badger smiles and lays down his hand.
Five of a kind! (Slowly he drags the pile of peanuts to his side of the table)

Shell was in shock, he couldn't believe the hand that Badger just played. Badger was clearly cheating , no way is that Shrek track in the pack , not even as a wildcard.
Something had to be done and quickly. By this time Badger was greedily scooping huge pawfuls of peanuts onto his already massive peanut pile.
Shell's mind was racing, "what shall I do? perm ban him , temp ban him , kick him or what? What would Gib do? Ah I know what Gib would do , it's obvious - kill him and kill him now"
Shell reached down for his concealed 400 shot 20mm automatic Deringer that was hidden in his left wellington boot. This little baby was a spoil of war taken from some poor player on a custom map monday battle and now was the time to use it.
Shell drew on all his BF42 experience , pointed the gun at Badgers head and quickly discharged the entire magazine in what seemed like an age but was in reality no less than 20 minutes. Badger was not to be foiled, he knew that Shell was going to be mad and he had already thrown himself into a hUTchie like dance routine. Shell was mesmerised and even considered awarding badger a 5.9 , 5.9 for technical ability and artistic impression.

Badger was down to eighteen health bars and covered head to foot in peanut dust when Shell said "Youv'e got a lot of nerve , to say you were my friend..."

"Guns? you bring a gun to a music fight!" Badger replies while jumping to his paws and swinging the Gibson J-200 in an extended arc over his head bringing it crashing down on Shell skull. "Kloooong!" Now that's music.
