привет дружище, я плохо говорю на английском, поэтому напишу на своем языке, переведи пожалуйста, хочу чтобы ты прочитал это еще раз привет, я из Севастополя, Крым у нас тут очень жарко, и зима приходит поздно ( надеюсь на английским это слово переведется правильно, LOL) как по мне, эстетика эмо, особенно midwest emo, очень даже кстати в россии играю мидвест, в последние пару лет, заметил значительную популяризацию этого жанра. но знаешь, российский мидвест эмо, какой то обычный и неинтересный может я ошибаюсь, потому что понимаю о чем поют русские, и мне нравится слышать английские крики в треках по типу boy problems (одна из любимых групп) я хотел сказать вам всем спасибо лично тебе, другим американским ребятам, которые пели мидвест я как о вас узнал, моя жизнь поменялась и последнее, можешь дать советы какие то для меня, вплане кого слушать, чтобы научиться круче играть на гитаре, кого ты слушал, вдоховлялся? и может мы с тобой сделаем какую то вместе песенку?) я был бы очень рад с тобой пообщаться, хотя мой английский примитивный, но я попытаюсь понять тебя, и сделаю так, чтобы ты меня понял мирного неба над головой как раз таки я бы сделал песню, где мы поем про дружбу не дружелюбных стран :) люблю тебя твой маленький фанат из Севастополя Егор
