Queen the last track is called lost in hollywood and i love BYOB
the one thing that blows about mezmerize is the fact that the title of the cd is longer than the cds content in another words it is short as hell and i am angry just as my name implies.
not many peaple know this but i use to come on to this site as stoner but later changed my name because i became angry soon i may change my name again because i am trying to quit smoking because i prommised my girl friend i would sorry did not mean rammble
any way i perfer the first album to toxicity in fact i think there first album is there best album.
as for lost in hollywood even though it is pretty melow it is one of the best tracks on mezmerize.

angrystoner:
I agree that "Lost in Hollywood" is definitely one of the best on the album, I also really like "BYOB" and "Violent Pornography", and you're right about their first album being the best.
And by the way... you should definitely quit smoking-- your girlfriend is pretty smart. You know it could make you infertile??? Well-- good luck with that!
