Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems, not problems like "What is beauty?" Because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems.

Old, Nerdy.
RDR1, Dispatch, Helldivers, and Arc Raiders also all work just fine.

I had no idea. I thought it was a Santana original.

There's a particular live version of Dave Matthews covering All Along The Watchtower that is particularly good.

Great example of doing this right is Gary Jules covering Tears for Fears' "Mad World." The original was too fast, and too upbeat for it's lyrics. Jules' cover is perfect.

And I really didn't care to fucking walk down a fucking highway and across a fucking runway to get back here to have you smile in my fucking face. I want a fucking car... right... fucking... now."

"And I really don't care for the way your company left me in the middle of fucking nowhere with fucking keys to a fucking car that isn't fucking there.

My experience with these people when they're at the front:

Red light: Antsy. Impatient. Move up a bit. Move up a bit. Move up. Move up. Lose interest.

Green light: They're all distracted now and take several seconds to register traffic is moving. Pull away very slowly
