I found it and I’m not going to let this song leave me again. It got me at the first “La, La” feel with a bit more crude words here or there.  It’s such a fun summer song that once you found it you’re not going to let it go until it’s #1 in the pop charts then you’ll probably hate it.  Then it will soon fall off the charts until you have got to back to you or at least this song.

Wow the trailer for Stranger Things is amazing! It grabs you from the 1st shot and doesn’t leave you till the last with a soundtrack that is truly a “thriller”.  Of course you have to experience some stranger things your self to feel the impact of the 2nd seasons trailer.

As Justin Bieber has suddenly cancelled his tour for unknown reasons we have to wonder what is truly going on and who really will step up to help?  Will his managers who make monies on each performance convince him that it’s time to receive the help it appears he needs or will they put him in a quick recovery only to bring on additional pain and difficulties?  Can his family and loved ones step in to make a difference or have they been sidelined by too many years of looking to reap his benefits no matter what the costs?  The truth is Justin Bieber might have to hit his own rock bottom to see that he truly must accept the steps to full health and recovery.  For too many teen idols never had the counseling and support needed to deal with a sudden rise to fame and the consequences it can bring to ones body, mind and even soul.  G-D willing Justin Bieber will receive the help he needs and be able to perform again health and happy with life itself.

I was ready to give up on “Snowfall” after episode one but decided to give it one more crack and now I might become addicted. For although the story is less then believable and the characters appear ruthless they are developing into people who I can relate too even if it’s from my dark side. I’m starting to feel for these individuals even though I’d never walk their path or even look in that direction in the same way I feel for the characters in “Godfather”.   This is compelling me to drop my wall of disbelieve and even disgust with what is going to happen as an addict keeps taking for the quick high of entertainment.  My addiction though surely won’t have an serious consequences to me, my family or neighborhood as the crack epidemic truly did.

We mourn the death of Chester Bennington a man who’s huge talents gave us eerie picture of the pain that was burning inside him.  If we had listened more carefully maybe we could have done more to help him escape from this pain. While many musicians use the sounds they make to escape from a painful reality it appears that Chester Bennington let it build up until it was too much for him to take. May the death of such talent let us make a greater effort to listen to the cry’s of those suffering from mental health problems and take the steps needed to help them toward recovery.

When the Punk Rockish (not fully Punk)  XM channel Faction channel was put out for some Guns & Roses it decided it needed to end their way. With a song that will problem is the Anthem of this music movement.  Mr. Blue Eye’s might be banging his head in his grave when he hears this version of his song but it’s a good bang.

FOOTNOTE- After reviewing the full video I was disgusted with the ending and would never have put it up if I had watched it fully. Yet feel that all my posts should exist uncensored even if they are wrong after further evaluation.
