    I remember 6-7 years ago I couldn’t get anyone to go and see this guy with me. Same with The XX. I’ve had such a varied music taste and due to other people I’ve only seen a few bands/artists. Maybe I should start doing everything alone

      Oh how I know how that feels. But I was lucky enough to have a daughter who was born in '92 so I have a best friend who goes to every Pearl Jam concert I can go to. And so she trusted me w Ben Howard. 😁

    The most of us have not that sense of beauty in our lives. We may be great artists, respectively expert in various things, but in our own daily life, with all the anxieties and miseries, we live, unfortunately, a very disordered life. It is a fact. You may a great scientist, you may be a great expert in a subject, but you have your own problems, struggles, pain, anxieties and the rest of it. We are asking, is it possible to live in complete order within, not impose discipline, control, but to inquire into the nature of this disorder, what are the causes, and to dispel, move away, wash away the cause. Then there is a living order in the universe. THANKS BEN!

    Black flies on the windowsill
    That we are, that we are, that we are to know
    Winter stole summer's thrill
    And the river's cracked and cold
    See, the sky is no man's land
    A darkened plume to stay
    Hope here needs a humble hand
    Not a fox found in your place
    No man is an island
    Of this I know
    But can't you see, or
    Or maybe you were the ocean
    When I was just a stone
    Black flies on the windowsill
    That we are, that we are, that we are to hold
    Comfort came against my will
    Every story must grow old
    Still, I'll be a traveller
    A gypsy's reins to face
    But the road is wearier
    With that fool found in your place
    No man is an island
    Of this I know
    But can't you see, or
    Or maybe you were the ocean
    When I was just a stone
    No man is an island
    Of this I know
    But can't you see, or
    Or maybe you were the ocean
    When I was just a stone
    So here we are
    Ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh
    I don't wanna beg your pardon
    And I don't wanna ask you why
    But if I was to go my own way
    Would I have to pass you by?
    I don't wanna beg your pardon
    And I don't wanna ask you why
    But if I was to go my own way
    Would I have to pass you by?
    Ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh
    Ooh, ooh

    Beside from a great love that I had, I felt like a stone, while she was the ocean; An ocean of love, of purity, of beauty, of honestity.
    But I don't wanna beg her pardon, I did it, a lot, but she took a decision, I cannot change the things, her mind, the past, the present. I let the comfort entry to my life, and that was against my will.
    I cannot be an island, I'll be just a stone. A traveller.

    Life Is Strange foi um divisor de águas em minha vida, difícil de acreditar que um jogo com gráficos ultrapassados e mecânica simples, mas a dublagem e o enredo é tão foda que me conquistou de uma maneira inacreditável, me deixou com um vazio enorme, aquela vontade de quero mais, tanto o primeiro como Before The Storm, são jogos maravilhosos, enfim, o que me resta é essa trilha sonora maravilhosa.
