Because I am working on downloadable content for Rock Band I get to use the Audio Dept.'s Rhapsody account to listen to stuff I might not otherwise have access to. This morning I found a playlist put together by Sara of Tegan and Sara. One of the tracks, The Big Ship by Brian Eno, had this comment on it "I cried while listening to this song on the ( Read more... ) -
