The music video is great too... the slow build up of the song towards the 3:10 minute mark, with him running towards you. Love it. So thankful I was old enough to be around to watc…

Yup. You can actually buy several European airlines with that kind of money. For example, you can buy KLM Air france for less than $3B. It is a profitable business that does $30B i…

It's the 25% VAT. Pre VAT, it's ~$685. With state sales tax of 8% where I live, the base would cost me $648. So not a huge difference.
