Inspired by my lovely "ungirlfriend" who... had a lot of feelings. Ahem!

1. X Japan - Say Anything (Acoustic Live)
Just tell me all of your sweet lies...Taken from an X show from 1995, when everything was peaches and roses and Yoshiki serenaded Toshi on the piano like a goddamn lounge singer. Things went to hell in 1997, but Yoshiki emerged, and ( Read more... )

My crazy life sucks sometimes. How is everyone? Give me a short update on your latest obsessions. <3
