How about that guitar in The Becoming!  I need to learn how the heck Trent

Due to the total inability of Best Buy to cancel an online order
effectively, I should have a second copy of the set delivered shortly.  I
stopped by a Brick 'n' Mortar store Saturday and snagged a copy early, so
I didn't need me pre-order any more.  Of course BB couldn't just cancel my
order, nooooo...

probably "Still" which, as I understand, is being sold separately from the
deluxe CD set as well as bundled.
