      Arianne Montemayor tbh that was a real jerk move yeah, but there were countless great things he did for his people, his country, his family, his friends, his society, and overall, the people around him. He wasn't a bad person, he was just an idiot who made a big mistake. But he never meant too much harm, and he really did do great things in his time of being alive

    You can tell they have practiced this song to complete perfection. They know not only when they sing, but when the other sings, and how to play off of eachother, not to mention their vocals are both 100% on point during this song. By far one my favorites to see live.

      @@CarlsCozyCorner that's the sad thing? After all this time, things should have progressed, and they haven't. Just because it's been worse before doesn't make the present better, just because it's not as bad doesn't mean it won't reach the point where it's a disaster.
