Yes Moose very happy to see you rep JYOCHO

 

I don't know who recommended it (maybe it was you?), but I'm happy someone did, because I adore it but would never have found it myself

 

Great thread as always, but ngl I am a little horrified by the lack of Rosalia

 

i really need to just sit down with the zach bryan album i guess
