I can see you like deep and emotional music and that's pretty good, because it shows that you FELL music. Shows you truly have a heart!

Thanks for the feedback, i recently joined to BEA, so I'm slowly discovering new music,maybe I tend to stick with a few bands but i'm trying to broaden my tastes. Will try with something more rough then!
