   The lyrics to GV are some of the worst of any BB song, in my opinion. I just   
   think at an auto racing event a car song would have ben more appropriate.   
   And those lame shots they showed of someone surfing had nothing to do with   
   anything. I'm sure Brian could have plugged the words to 'Shut Down' or 'Car   
   Club' into his teleprompter and given the audience something they could   
   relate to. Hell if he had to play some old chesnut, why not 'I Get Around'?

   No. Radio hasn't ruined it yet.
