Papercuts - Do What You Will

Dear Tumblr
I watched the first episode of US Skins. Maybe it’s not as good as UK Skins. Let’s all agree. Ok awesome.

it made me love, it made me love.
“Love More” was easly one of the prettiest songs of 2010. Our newest artist Yellow Ostrich did an equally pretty cover. Check both.
