    Loved the movie. Very well done. I loved hearing the evolution of One. Hope it's on demand so I can watch it again.

    Just listened to a few tracks from the deluxe edition back-to-back with the same tracks from the original release. Honestly I can't tell any difference between the two. I know it hasn't actually been remastered, but somebody mentioned that it's been tweaked, polished, and a bit louder. But to my ears I can't hear much of a difference at all, sonically or volume-wise. Granted, my hearing is probably a little messed up from years and years of attending live concerts and playing in bands. So maybe my ears just can't notice it. Anyone else care to weigh in on this subject?
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    I got mine on Friday. Really enjoying it at the moment, the Kindergarten disc with the early versions, the outtakes (and B-Sides) and the remixes. A nice trip down memory lane!

    I like the Kindergarten disc. One is so different.

    'Baby' Love Is Blindness is also amazing. Very, very dark. And also quite different from the released version, owing more to trip-hop than the original.

    Saw the doc and I must say, it might have been the first time I had the chills and a boner at the same time. :D
