I do too. Like, actually am in love with her. Chemo Limo makes me well up a bit too. I think I just have issues with her music sometimes... Samson makes me more happy than teary... Just cos I have red hair and my partners hair was long when we first met - It's me super cheesey life moment

Lame topic I know, but I've been hating on guitar solos a lot lately and I feel I need to give credit where it's due.


Top 5 guitar solos in prog:

Gong - I Never Glid Before (2:15)
King Crimson - The Night Watch (2:50)
Camel - Stationary Traveller (2:20)
Rush - Digital Man (3:45)
Tool - Parabola (5:40)


Well that was surprisingly mainstream...
