| X2 Non-slang definition: Flagellation or flogging is the act of methodically beating or whipping (Latin flagellum, "whip") the human body. Specialised implements for it include rods, switches, the cat o' nine tails and the sjambok. Typically, flogging is imposed on an unwilling subject as a punishment... (from Wikipedia) Not to be confused with flagellum: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGAm6hMysTA (from the ever-entertaining youtube)

| I think of a single in "old-skool" terms, like... in 2 dimensions. Think "tocadiscos" (my favorite Spanish word). So I think the new single can only have 1 B-side.
