Working out in the sun to #BrandNew's Your Favourite Weapon 🌞
I remember hearing one of their songs in a Tiger Woods video game, getting driven to #HMV & picking up their works on blind faith. What an era!

#PrizeFighterInferno - Elm Street Lover Boy 🎵
I’ve loved his music for so many years.
Found this song for the 1st time yesterday.
Unrivaled songwriting & delivery.
If you're wondering what a Piscean solo project sounds like - this is it!

#MariahCarey - Always Be My Baby 🎵
On repeat since last month's full moon 🌕
[3:03] - you'll feel the half step modulation into the last chorus
(starts in E, ends in F...)
lol take in lots of air or you WILL BE FLAT on the word 'boy'

#CelineDion - That’s the Way It Is 🎵
Can’t stop listening to this since I heard it at the grocery store!
Tremendous harmonic motion. Modulates at the bridge, again for the final chorus.
Outstanding! Aries prototype, anyone?
