↳ Song: "Cherry Blossom Cilnic Revisited" by "The Move"
Sadly, this song is ruined for me – it just gives me a reflexive feeling of annoyance / mild despair that Terre T is about to come on the radio and play a lot of music I don't particularly care for.

Unless it's the Astronomy Dominé cover by Voivod. That's pretty darned swell.
