Wow, I didn't know that one YET.

"Hypnotize" actually samples from the longer version of "Rise" found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5RJ-GlMsW8 @ 3:23. How do I know this?...You'll hear the same laugh in the background that is heard in "Hypnotize".

True, which is weird considering it was a Billboard #1.
