I have spoken before about how when people shave a bit off their song, they end up losing more than the effort they feel they saved.

While I get that some will say this is not ok, I think it is the only way to scream in the face of fashion and tyranny without becoming the very … Continue reading Said The Wrong Thing – Aeroplastic Voice
