I have to agree with all the other YouTube commenters who were bugged that all the historical callouts are out of order, but I'm impressed that they worked in another reference to the Suez Canal. :)--G.

>that they worked in another reference to the Suez Canal. :) I agree with both your points. The random jumping (and, let's be honest, some of the "rhyming" was aweful) was a bit jarring, but I still give them props for putting together a solid list of events. All that said, there's something about their musical style in this song that is just jarring to my nerves - I can get into screeching guitar and so forth just fine, but I think there's just a little too much (intentional) feedback for me to take. I haven't listened to them before (that I can remember, at least) so I don't know if that's typical of their music or not, but if it is then I'll probably stay away from it. *shrug* [...] in order to be a realist you must believe in miracles.
