For a song with less diversity from one version to the next, this one is better than most, and rare coming so late in the show...

^It sounds to me like they abandoned ship because someone shouted for "something sweet"

^Couldn't have said it better myself, Carrion_Crow! Ego death is an experience you can't possibly explain, but a great "Black Peter" like this sure comes close...

Keith really shines on this one, followed by Phil playing wingman in Pig's stead heading into intermission...
