Thanks guys! I'm honored. Thus far all your themes have been more on the scary/violent side, what with all the bar fights, nightmares and robot invasions. Don't get me wrong, I've loved them all :) (even though I can't listen to the bar fight one when I'm driving...it makes me want to run people off the road). But I would like to see y'all put together something a little more upbeat, hopeful, maybe on the sensual side. I'll sleep on it and let y'all know.
 
I listened to this as I was falling asleep and I didn't have a nightmare...I want my money back.

:D

Seriously though, great job you guys! It did actually make me afraid to fall asleep. Gotta say my fave was Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. :yeah:
 
Those are the seven I was going to go with. According to Wikipedia, gluttony and sloth replaced two older, slightly different ones, but yeah the modern seven are the way to go I think.
 
I think that's why I liked it so much too...brought back memories of my riding between my parents in my dad's old pick up truck, with them belting out "Wake up little Susie" and me begging them to stop. lol. I look back now and realize how much fun that really was.
 
That's interesting. That's not what I would've pegged the difference as. To me the most noticeable difference was that you had more variety on yours, both in terms of feel and in terms of style, while mine pretty much just stuck to a sleazy and clubby thing throughout.
