that's ok, it's worthy of enthusiasm!

I've driven all my friends crazy with the original Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep since I found it.

Pulled out Lush's Gala recently. Enjoyed it about 50% more than I thought I would. Classic and not a bad track on it, really. Not sure now why Chirpy didn't end up on there.
