[@gilbertomadrid8066]

I wish I was there

[@ajtmv7]

I was born 40 years too late

[@DarlinJacq]

I will face it and I will fall on my face again & I will take it and accept it

[@4554massimo]

❤️❤️ Grandi...

[@DarlinJacq]

❤I was going to turn My phone off and cry, and then you had to play one of mY songs (Barbarisim Begins At Home) so I thought I'd find a way to make My transition easier. It is easy NOW, but I AM unsure of the unknown so, whatever happens because this town is full of people who are great that I do not know, happens...I AM not wanted (disliked?) in this house 🎉

[@DarlinJacq]

Well, I AM NOW free for the picking because, I AM moving home tomorrow aNd I would like to stay at mY house of peace tonight

[@getalowkun]

A little fast-tempo

[@TheSmithsLiveOfficial]

I've occasionally noticed they play a show (or just some songs) at a slightly faster tempo which makes for a cool unique recording. I can assure you it's not an editing error on my part!

[@getalowkun]

I fully understood！

[@ajtmv7]

This is sped up a bit, I remember it being slower.

[@johnpoblick8848]

Bands typically play faster live. Might it be the adrenaline, excitement, or both.

[@davidmcdonald6804]

Very very fast...I was there

[@DarlinJacq]

God's Greatest Gift saw that mY bank account is overdrawn is because I have donated to people who I thought were my friends because they talked good about YOU...but they were just demons eating my life and my happiness up. This is killing mE but you need me to suffer for you your glory and I will because I have nothing else. I have no friends becaue I gave them all money, and got nothing but their smile and My broke bank numbers...
