[Cm].
Well, I guess I was wrong.
Jack [Fm] and Kyle went back into the studio that day.
[Bb] 75 minutes later, they came out with a new album.
[Ab] However, it was awful.
75 minutes [Cm] isn't really enough time to record an album.
That was incredibly dumb [Bb] on their part.
But they played it for some friends and got good constructive [Fm] criticism and tried again.
When they [Cm] emerged, they had made the [Ab] greatest album ever recorded by [C] anyone.
[Cm] That's not opinion.
That's fact.
