    Story Time: After I graduated high school, I worked closing shift (4pm-1am) at a gas station. The radio would always play absolute bangers, like Putting on the Ritz, Paula Abdul, and of course The Whispers and Survivor would play; almost daily. This track you put together really brings me back to sitting on the cases of beer in the cooler just to catch a break from a crazy Friday rush. We would get our weekly shipment from the supply company on Fridays, so we were always swamped with customers and inventory. Sometimes, when it's 90 degrees outside, the station is full, and you just finished sweeping up every single cigarette butt out of the parking lot, the only reprieve you had was when you were refilling the drinks from inside the cooler; you got you sit down for a few minutes in the cold.
    This track feels like when you step out of the drink cooler, the store finally cleared out, the sun is starting to set, and your boss just left for the night. The radio is playing, this track is playing. Great times, considering I was getting 55 hours a week (with overtime) while my colleagues were unemployed. This track really brings me back.

    Now that's how you do a proper double bill equivalent for mashup musical pieces, and you certainly didn't disappoint in that department, Bill, you really didn't.
    This is one of the best mashup mixes out there, and while "Eye of the Tiger" may not be one of my favourite Rocky anthems, it was certainly a stroke of genius on your part to have it meshed up so well with the other tune so effortlessly, and now I can appreciate both of them in the process.
    Need I say more of sprinkling little touches here and there, elevating the final result to new high-rolling highs that the rest of us merely catch a glimpse at best?
    My final verdict? Awesome with a capital A, and banging to the core!
