I just think that this is pure class as a song. The male vocals are really good. They are passionate and have real emotion after what is quite a steady start to the song.
It is a song that you need to give a little time because it does warm …

This album is a fantastic work of musical art. There are some moments that clearly have weak spots. Some songs should have been on the album from my point of view because they are not consistent and high quality enough, but the main course, the central piece of the …
