I have a song I would have picked, but it’s a acoustic radio show bootleg. I still love Amy Lee’s voice.

@kvn Bluegrass works so well for some reason, my favourite Bluegrass cover is Thunder and Rain - Sweet Child o’ Mine (2018)

Dark and moody opening, and heavy finish. I’ve loved this since it came out.

@jcit878 Big US cities have big airports, international travel. You are no longer competing with just the local area.

@captaincoupi Play this one LOUD!

@Tom @alternativenation I dug this, loved all the little bits of Toronto in the video.

@ren Good times, in the 90’s I used to hang out at a goth / industrial bar in Toronto. And when I’m lucky the same DJ spinning the same stuff does Twitch every once and a while.

She bought the album the next day, and it blew us away.

I am so deeply in love with this album, it’s my #2 personally most influential album.
