Really enjoyed this. I've always thought that a knack for legos is a sure sign of genius.

aka my kids will only ever have legos.

Oh, and what was the name of the song playing?

I just love legos, and love Star Wars, so it's just great, and as soon as I can I'll buy the Millennium Falcon ;)

Where can I get the song that was playing in the video?
