Question
I was listening to I know Jack when I got The System Has Failed.
I was listening to it and I was amazed by the guitar riff. I expected Dave to start singing, but instead it ended...
A ton of my friends (including the non-Megadeth fans) seemed to be disappointed. Is there a specific reason why it ended all of a sudden?
And do you think you can ever reuse that riff for another song?

This week's Scorpion is part one of three about Megadeth songs. Stay tuned for more questions about "Dawn Patrol" and "The Hardest Part Of Letting Go...Sealed With A Kiss."
I passed your question along to Dave, here's what he had to say about "I Know Jack":
"It ended because the song was over. I have no plans to regurgitate riffs under new names. I was already embarrassed enough when I was told that the record company was changing the title of A Tout Le Monde to Set Me Free, so no, there is no intention of re-recording that."
