It's been pretty good weather all week to be honest, not to hot but the sun has been shining, and that's when I noticed something. I have noticed it in previous years but this year I'd like to...

Of course it was! 🙂 I'm still getting into all the tracks but I will be writing a full review this weekend as well as the rest of the Transformers soundtrack review... Continue Reading →
