How to do a four point roll? Whap, stop, whap, stop, whap, stop, whap, stop, 
whap, stop!  All this while Karen Carpenter sings ...

Err, I don't wish to be picky, but haven't you just done a 450 deg 5 point roll,
ending up in a 90 deg bank? (unless you started off at 90 deg, of course).  It's
a nice manoeuvre anyway (or I quite like a 270 roll right to turn left & vice 
versa)

IMHO, the greater issue here is the choice of music, if it has to be 
Carpenters, why not "Calling Occupants..." (with guitar solo performed by 
Karen, BTW); but better by far (SIMO) would be the Intermezzo from 
Cavalleria Rusticana (Mascagni) aka the bit from Godfather III (or the 
Kleenex TV ad to the Brits) -- actually, lots of classical stuff fits the 
bill v. well.

All IMHO of course.
