Charm City Devils slows their version to give time for the

Music is a must for writing and working out. And it's cool when a band can remake a song even better.
ReplyDeleteit's a great song. Sadly, I have trouble writing to music most of the time:(
ReplyDeleteit's got to be instrumental or soundtracks for me to concentrate on writing. Like the soundtrack from True Blood or Master and Commander, Pride and Prejudice.
