I assume you'tr talking about Braver/Draussen ist Freiheit, 'cause I just dug up "Something of the Masquerade ...", and I can't quite figure out how the Starker/Say a Prayer-section is a reworking of that. Okay, I'm about as musical as a dead cactus, but still, I don't hear it. What should I listen for?
