MrSquiggle	What's up with the track "Tokyo"? What a strangely atmospheric and beautiful song! This is a light, chillout sorta jam with piano, sax and a sprinkling of electronics and bird noises. Prince sings one word, "Tokyo". I can just see the neon lights of Tokyo at 2am. I heard this on NewPowerRadio.tk so presumably it's an official release of some sort. Where's it from?

monte	absolutely beautiful. i love it so much. it somehow reminds me of bjork in a way. i think there's no other song like it and empty room live is one of the most emotional performances

Really? I always assumed C-Note was instrumental, so I didn't bother.

Do the other songs have vocals, too?

Mendes is joking.....the only lyric on "Tokyo" is "tokyo". Empty Room is the only cut on there with a full set of lyrics.

Actually, I'm being serious--garganta is joking. How do people like C-Note? Is it worth borrowing somebody's PC so that I can actually burn it if I download?
