Comment:

I'm not the kind of person that excepts hopelessness.I like to figure things out.Most of these songs are hopeless and sad and that is why they made it on this c.d..I always feel better after listening to this.

Ah, I wondered why I liked this so much, and then I looked at the mixer. Another classic.

Happy to see that hopelesness and sorrow is not constant, and the mix is very nicely selected.
