    It is a great song.

    But that song is already 22 years old. That’s like calling the Beatles contemporary to the 1980s. And, I’m pretty sure it’s already being used in soundtracks and stuff similar to sports events if not actual sports events.

    EDIT: Steven Strasburg of the Washington Nationals uses it as a walk up song.

      Jeez, and here I thought Alban Berg was still contemporary. He died in 1935.

      My buddy and I were outside a sports bar over the weekend for another’s birthday, and that song Sail by AWOLNATION came on. It was quite the trip realizing that song is now 15 years old.
