    I can't believe nobody has mentioned this yet given all the recent media attention, but I think Pussy Riot is one of the best names ever! Worst? Your gonna hate it but... The Beatles. Think about it.

    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
