I heard this song about a month ago when I watched his tourettes at Glastonbury video. Apparently 1.2 billion people heard it before me. 🤣 Cool video.

This song has been stuck in my head since I reheard it 2 weeks ago. ( I first heard it when Jeffrey Austin sang it on the Voice but never remembered that. )

I heard a song on the radio a few minutes ago called Gone, Gone, Gone. This song by John Ralston is much better.

Yeah, so... Wonder Man is by far the best Marvel show I've seen. I hope the studio keeps going in this direction. ( Shows and movies that are actually well written and don't have the Marvel "humor". )

I wish someone would make a video that puts the songs Let Me Go and Come and Gone together because they flow together and it's perfect. But until then, here's the 2nd half.

Taking Back Sunday used to be my favorite band for over a decade until Adam started singing the songs like a Baptist preacher instead of how he wrote and recorded them. Still some bangers though...

I'm a big Vinnie Caruana fan. I love The Movielife, I Am The Avalanche, and his solo albums. This song is from his solo album Survivor's Guilt.

Today's post is for the father of 3rd wave emo. Dashboard Confessional was the last concert I saw. ( With Goo Goo Dolls ).

I've always wanted to cover this song.

This is a perfect song. I love this band so much. They broke up for a while after this album and some of the members formed the band Daytrader and my old band got to open for them twice. Good times.

Of all the bands I love vocally my singing style is probably closest to Dan's. Not that I sound anything like him. Just the pretty and the hollerin I guess. This style of band would be ideal. It'd be fun to tour with them.
