Also known as the Pink Panther theme. Might be cooler in Saxophone Hero... but I think I'll take one.

Huh? That's not the Pink Panther theme. Henry Mancini did the Pink Panther theme:



Brian Setzer was an 80s icon with Stray Cat Strut.

Interesting. Because, I saw this when searching for a Brian Setzer Orchestra version, and not a Stray Cats version:



Jump to 2:45. It sounds like they just did that during that one live show for some reason, so I was mistaken.

That's a great live version. Yeah, he just inserted it. It goes well with that performance, though.

Otis and The Chemical Brothers in the same week!? I requested Let Forever Be, but I didn't think we'd ever get it. It's going to be interesting...

Well, Otis Redding is certainly not something I expected, but it is something I might be buying.

Fantastic news, tho I was a little disappointed when I saw this song wasn't on the track list.
