‘Radio’ by Rammstein You can rest assured, this is a decent song by Rammstein. No sex or violence, just a story of what the radio meant to the members when they lived in the communist times in East Germany. I chose this song because of how it’s set up musically. …

It was a hard find this week. I went over several options, considered several other songs, but not one I really liked. Until I saw this song had ‘forever’ in the lyrics. Finally, I had the answer on what to post this week! ‘Paradise by the Dashboard Light‘ is one …
