    But Manny, has Pink Floyd ever loved you back?? Did they ever look into your eyes and say Manny I want you to have my kids, I want to grow old with you, I want my girlfriend to join us. I didn't think so.

    Yes just as much as Korn covering Floyd.

    I'm still looking for it. ABITW is on Korn's greatest hits (snicker) album.

    Let me know when you find it - I have a feeling you will find the Holy Grail first.

    However, if Korn ever did do that, then that would instantly be the best song they ever recorded (even with their godawful vocals).:p

    Well ****ing ****, you weren't kidding after all about that being on their greatest hits.

    Well I still stand by my statement of that song being the best Korn song ever.

    Oski you're a little late, I've been telling Manny that the Korn cover is better than the original for a while now.
