True, we asked if you had this track, to please not share or post it yet; we'll put it here soon enough. But that doesn't mean you can't tell us what you think of it!

Anybody here in Queens on Sunday? What's your take on 'his building'?

Being from Atlanta, I had never heard this term nor had any idea what this was, but had been curious ever since I read WB's lyrics, just hadn't bothered to look it up until now. Apparently, a Classic Seven is a a seven-room apartment floor plan one can find in buildings built in New York City prior to 1940 consisting of a formal dining room, living room, kitchen, three bedrooms, maid's room and two or more bathrooms. There's also a Classic Six, which has one less bedroom. Learn something new every day!

Give that man a Kewpie Doll!

[and being from <1940 it's also going to have another highly-desirable NYC real-estate feature -- it'll be in a "pre-war" building: solid old-style construction often w/ high ceilings, good stone or marble, maybe tall windows, fireplaces or other architectural ornamentation, etc]

Thanks as always. I really enjoyed this one. Additionally, I really want to go watch the Back to the Future movies again after hearing "So hows about you make like a tree and get a move on."

"God bless you Chandalur Singh/Thanks for next to nothing."

For any who didn't immediately catch the little reference.

And a quick nod to Eric "Rudy" Schuttler who designed the graphic on that SD page, along with many of those that made the site so special. Rest in Peace, Eric.
