No Picture Nick Average	#1 by Nick Serpant at May 11, 2006 at 12:39 PM EST
	this song is about a motherfucker who was giving phil hell at a show so he said he was gonna kick his ass.the kid went and told his dad and his dad said u juss give me five minutes alone with that phil anselmo guy. this is in the book that comes with the new greatest hits thing.

No Picture Graeme Wanna Be	#2 by Graeme Cook at May 15, 2006 at 4:04 PM EST
	fromhellview is right. And you can bet your ass that Dimebag is beating the fucking shit out of nathan wherever they may be.

No Picture Joanne Average	#3 by Joanne Mackenzie at Aug 27, 2006 at 12:24 AM EST
	RIP Dimebag

No Picture owain Wanna Be	#4 by owain pole at Sep 3, 2006 at 1:26 PM EST

No Picture AnToNiA Wanna Be	#5 by AnToNiA at Dec 17, 2006 at 2:10 AM EST
	it is a song about killing the people who put you down like a kind of columbine thing

No Picture gemma Average	#6 by gemma o'neill at Dec 23, 2006 at 8:13 AM EST
	When you say, I want 5 minutes alone with you. That simply means you wanna kick their ass. I don't think there's any deeply hidden message here.

No Picture Scott Average	#7 by Scott Reihlmann at Feb 1, 2007 at 9:09 PM EST
	This is the exact text from the booklet inside The Best of Pantera: "There was a guy in the front row in San Diego who was heckling Phil. Phil finally had enough, so he incited the crowd to jump this guy's ass and beat the shit out of him on the spot, so he sued us. And when his dad called our manager, his exact quote was, "You just give me five minutes alone with that Phil Anselmo guy and I'll show him who's big daddy around here." Phil's response was, "You just give me five minutes with that cat's dad and I'll whoop his ass." That's where that song came from."

No Picture Camilo Wanna Be	#8 by Camilo Singer at Feb 12, 2007 at 5:40 AM EST
	from hellview is correct.... one of the best songs from this bunch......

No Picture Jesse Professional	#9 by Jesse Garcia at Feb 14, 2007 at 9:43 PM EST
	It does have to do with the guy at the concert...but Phil said on stage for the crowd to kick his ass...and they did. So the father of the kid said 'just give me 5 minutes with that ::insert insult here::...directing towards Phil. So, Phil felt the same way and wrote a song about it. It describes it in the bookelt for their greatest hits CD (I'm pretty sure)

No Picture Thorsten Average	#10 by Thorsten Budelmann at Feb 21, 2007 at 2:19 PM EST
	RIP Dimebag

No Picture Collin Wanna Be	#11 by Collin McCabe at Feb 22, 2007 at 8:53 PM EST

No Picture Dan Average	#14 by Dan Johnson at Jun 5, 2007 at 1:32 PM EST
	goddamn it man...phil was the one who died and if you listen to the lyrics, does it really sound like a brush with death song? 10s is more of a death song.
