	i love the horns on this song. Operation Ivy rules, but sorry guys, I'd have to say Rancid is better.

	rancid is more than half the band op ivy was. but they're still not as good as and never will be as good as op ivy.

	the vocals i have on this song sound like tim armstrong from rancid, do i have like a cover version or something or did they do this song together? bc ppl seem to be mentioning rancid as well
