Famous

Music – It’s All Part of The Plan

I find that music is very important to mood. It can make or break it so you better well bloody know what you’re doing with it. I find it weird that certain music can elicit one feeling one day and a completely different tone on another day. Perhaps it is just the Gemini in me [...]
