(JK) and it will just encourage Norse to become even more prolific with the obscure references.

I personally think it is just a catchy song that I had no mind listening to. Hey, to each its won, eh? Good article and thanks for sharing.

To me, there wasn’t a lot of good songs to choose from because before they were to have one of the musical scores from MAG and I would remember this one song that was played to death. Granted the song wasn’t bad but it was too stagnant for my taste, where there were other songs that was better. Chain Swing was somewhat similar but I felt that it was a catchy song that was about “letting loose and let your Chain Swing” i.e. “having a good time and go crazy!” versus other songs that didn’t catch my ear.

Other songs that I felt that should’ve been played more were…

“Reborn” by Jax f/ Cage
“Raekwon” by Raekwon
“Don’t Front Mix” artist unknown (Sony, I assume)

And this one more that I can’t recall. But those songs were great but was taken off the list for no apparent reason. I understand how the Chain Swing song could be annoying at times. This is why I have it on my PSP Playlist so I can listen to it at my own leisure.

Good lord, I listened to that song *constantly.*

Because, I’ll be honest, Chain Swing is nowhere near quality song writing.

As far as Chain Swing goes… meh. What can we do? When users keep choosing it over and over, and cry and moan to bring it back after its removal, it was obviously wanted by the Home community. Just because most of the “mature” users hate it, doesn’t mean the majority does.

Everyone *always* danced around it. So much so that when the advert was removed people requested it back for the music.

I heard a lifetimes worth of this song in a couple of days of Home, hated it the first time I heard it and would get violently angry at hearing it now. Of all the millions of songs in the world why did they choose this? Then you think they’ve taken it away and it comes back. Then for the kicker they throw it at you for an April Fools day joke as the only song, so that it plays non stop.

Personally, I can’t listen to that song all the way through even one time -- not even close. I think I’d rather listen to Justin Bieber, lol.
