#3 Well, if the NKors can't offer a B side song, they can use "It's a Long Way to Tipperary". It is a good song and gets the blood flowing, and if side A is a bust, side B could carry the day.

#4 You want B side's? Here's a bunch from last week in KCNA:

"Thunder on Jong Il Peak", "Jong Il Peak is the Most Sublime", "Jong Il Peak in Morning," "Thick Forest around Jong Il Peak," 'Glow on Jong Il Peak" and other songs depict Kim Jong Il as the illustrious commander born of heaven endowed with the spirit of Mt. Paektu.
"Pledge made looking up to Jong Il Peak," "I will learn from you, Jong Il Peak," "Blizzard on Jong Il Peak," "Live with Jong Il Peak in mind" and other songs represent the Korean people's firm determination to make a long journey of revolution as comrades true to the army-based revolutionary leadership of the brilliant commander of Mt. Paektu.

#5 An "arduous march" is what your morning walk down the mailbox becomes when you've eaten nothing but boiled grass for the last year.

#6 "The Army-Based Policy"? Didn't they win a Grammy for Best New Asian Rappers?

#7 boiled? grass, mailbox?.... you're a cruel man, YankinParis. I think you and tu3031 should get together and compose the B side "Jong II Peak Medley"... you guys could make it an arduous "March" by writing it in triple meter. ;)
