      I think Scott singing The Final Countdown would be funny.
      Europe has a lot of other great songs though. Especially the ones on the Hot Rod Soundtrack.

      the new version of beer was done 'cause Aaron loves the song but hates the production on the original version (hates it on all of TTRO, actually)…. otherwise it would've seemed pathetic…. but in this case it's understandable….
