Music was my first love and it will be my last. Music of the future, and music of the past.
Finally sent off my 45 HMs for #THETWEN2IE5.
While all 45 have at least one pick, I'm not sure that many will change the results as a lot of them don't have much backing.
Anyway, here is a thread with my picks. (1/10)
