@ andyprough

I could not get your link to work. So I thought I could do a work around using YouTube. I hope this is the song you mentioned in your post.

Sure, you can take whatever is after the "watch?v=" in a youtube link and put it at the end of an invidious link and get the same video most of the time.

Vasily Akimov did a good job on those vocals. Not the easiest song to sing.

"Romantic Romance Romancer" by the Touhou doujin music circle Seventh Heaven MAXION. This is my favorite vocal arrange so far of "Peaceful Romancer" from the fifth Touhou game Mystic Square.

I'm not sure why, as it's not really similar, but it reminded me a little bit of Hiro no Tsuki by Akina Arai (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6ojLNsoi0w). Now that one is truly heart-rending.

I was listening to some music this morning while working on my linux backups on a few of my thumb/flash drives. I wanted something with a little country flair, but not too "twangy" if you get my drift. Went through my music library, chose this song and looped it.

Paul Vinson - "Empty Heart & Broken Dreams".

Have always loved Lily Allen's songs, but yesterday she was the subject of an interesting podcast that I regularly listen to.

In response, today, I am going to listen to her 4 albums, back to back and on repeat for most of the day.

When I need some energy I listen to "Sleeping My Day Away" by D-A-D.
