like it matters that i mention this...the "A Dozen Roses" and "Roses in the Car" are the same lyrics, just different styles. I prefer "Roses in the Car", it's very un-Braid like and electronic sounding, and i haven't met anyone who could answer why they are different for me.

the picture doesn't have much meaning behind it. Just showing how the mainstream has warped the true meaning of Emo. I typed emo into google and came up with that haha

Radical. A lot of my faves on here. I think the Braid song you used is actually called "A Dozen Roses". It could have used some Rainer Maria (Something from "Past Worn Searching" or "Look Now, Look Again"), Maybe some Still Life or Giant's Chair as well.

Good luck on the race for first place!
