Sorry random chosen comment hopefully you don't mined. Do yuu know of a type of shades that attach to the face rubber surroundings that keep light out all around the eyes like sides and front ect. I was thinking ski goggles but people might look at me wirdly more than ushel 😅. I'm a vampire really weak to day light 😄 joke but light does weaken me.

The changes kinda remind me of joy divisons change between unknown pleasures and closer. Softer tone, less abbrassive instrumentals and more poetic lyrics. I'm just glad there's both versions.
