No Picture Chuck Average	#1 by Chuck Norris at Apr 25, 1971 at 12:44 PM EST
	woohooo....hella good song chaps! robb rox the world fuck yea!

No Picture John Rhythm Player	#2 by John McElyea at May 14, 1971 at 1:37 AM EST
	FUCK. YEAH.

No Picture That One Guy Musical Genius	#3 by That One Guy at Mar 23, 1973 at 12:30 PM EST
	I think this song is Robb Flynn saying that the reason they have succeded as a band, is because of their will to succeed and the fact that it is all down to the 'blood, sweat and tears' they have shed. I also think it is a reply to people who were calling them sell-outs, saying that "the reason we are here, is because we worked so hard for this".

No Picture Doolittle Lead Player	#4 by Doolittle at Dec 21, 1986 at 7:26 AM EST
	Brilliant song..

No Picture cody Rhythm Player	#5 by cody watts at Oct 18, 2000 at 9:03 PM EST
	I think that this song is about the effort and pain they put into getting to were they are today, and how u should push yourself if u want to suceed in life.

No Picture chris Average	#6 by chris jenko at Feb 25, 2003 at 9:45 AM EST
	I agree with all of you!!
