Hmmmm....
Your rainbow is shaded brown.
What is says about you: You are a deep thinking person. You appreciate the roughness of nature. You feel closer to people when you understand their imperfections.

Remining myself why I'm such a big fan....
Absolutely love this guy's voice. I think I'd marry him tomorrow, just so I could hear him sing every day of my life. ;) I did splurge and by his semi-new Outside In album, which I cannot wait to hear in full! -
Stupidity in Purple
