Heywood.Musically frustrated, I turned to the internet to locate some hip hop happening new rifts. Suddenly, without prior warning, I encountered the Blind Rukis page. I downloaded the song and immediately broke into spontaneous tribal dance moves I barely suspected I possessed. I brought the entire house down in my astounding energy, and fell, exhiliarated and at once crest-fallen; that the song was now over.
Count me in for a CD...All comments (8)
