For the first time since starting this project, it was one song that I couldn’t quite place my own personal spin on since it lyrically focuses on things that I couldn’t possibly relate to. Well, one lyric, anyway, and sometimes it’s just one … Continue reading Jaimee Eat World Release: Something Loud
