One more question about the Animals song.  So, the version that we hear all
the time now...is that the Brit version or the U.S. version?  I am confused.
The one I remember...I would assume that's the U.S. version..."you're gonna
die before your time is due"...vs...."you'll be dead before your time is
due".......trivial, but it bugs me!  LOL
