Speaking of Punk

There's a song I'm going to post on my birthday (Friday) that just seems so right. It's ironic for me, because it just shows how powerful a slightly different arrangement can be -- a different chord here or there (I lack the language to really explain it, it's all intuitive, but is so different, so much better). It's a wonderful tune, one that I had historically maligned -- not the version I stumbled into (which kills), but the better-known one (which I still loathe). Just funny how much power a song can have, if done slightly differently. I'm chomping at the bit to post it, but I'm waiting until Friday. It's hard to be patient.
