How often do we end up in a situation where we are listening to a same song, for 8 times, in a row, for a few times…

Coldplay’s back with a new EP — the Kaleidoscope EP.

1月22日僕はZher The Zooに居た。
昨年末下北沢に続き2回目のリンダ&マーヤのライブを観る為だ。
少し遅れて到着したので既に開演していて、ケトルズのライブを少し観た後、リンダ&マーヤのステージが始まった。

いや、崩壊なんかしていないかの様に涙はとても滑らかに、スラスラと出てきたのだ。
