Same thing in Dublin at the Molly Malone statue.

Reply to What’s a song (or two) that ruin an otherwise perfect album? by Theobviouschild11

It certainly doesn't ruin the album, but "Swing On This" at the end of Jar of Flies by Alice In Chains just doesn't belong there. Not at all. And it's enough to move that album out of contention for the best album of all time for me. Otherwise, the mood established by the rest of the album is a sheer masterpiece. But then that song comes along and shifts the whole mood. It's rough.

Reply to Books that you decided to read and/or buy because it influenced the writer/book you read previously.. by Prestigious-Dog-1090

I read some Peter Straub after enjoying a lot of Stephen King. I went to the library and randomly picked out, "A Special Place." That was easily one of the most disturbing things I've ever read. I wish I'd never read it.
