yes, 9 na friends ko, haha.
92834 plays ka (as of now) O.o Nakakahiya nman, ako pa yung nagtuturo about Last.fm, haha, last month ko lang nalaman yung lastfm e, and i cant believe something as amazing as this one was existing behind me.. kung alam lang ng mga tao na may ganito...

ganda ng lastfm post mo O.o magkakasundo siguro kayo ni pat.. musical person din sya =]

If you'd ask me, Click 5 at BLG lang din ang irerecommend ko sa first time mag ta-try ng pop-punk.. sila yung relatively 'safe', more pop, less punk
