ponyinarope replied to your video: Split Enz, “I Got You” Yep, I started I Want My… The book is so freaking good. I loved it. It’s SO GOOD! The one quote about the “Total Eclipse of the Heart” video where it becomes clear that the people who came up with the concept were just totally wasted? Worth the price of the book, right there.
