The Sound of the Crowd

These past few days I Have Mainly Been Listening To:

“If my movie got made (and there was no concern about “dating” the film with music it’s 30-something creator likes rather than his 20-something characters)…the soundtrack album!”

This is fucking self-indulgent, but what the hell, it’s my blog. Links in titles lead to lyrics, links in names lead to reviews, mostly by me.
