"Does the body rule the mind
Or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know"
I was a teenager in the 80s listening to alternative music so it sort of goes without saying how impactful on me, and how influential this album was. To this day I still try to get my mind to rule my body. The power of positive thinking.
10/10 songs: Still Ill, Reel Around The Fountain, Hand In Glove, What Difference Does It Make? [First added to this chart: 07/29/2017]
