      relax & connect to your heart again - nothing is gone . These songs just bring me back to 1985 when i saw Lloyd Cole live .....and feeling alive ....happy to be who i am in 2022 . Remember , its your ego who thinks u have lost your youth ...but actually , if u truly wanted to be back in those times , u would know its possible ....so go for it or lament - Your choice

      @@streetcleaning711 You can get back to your best feelings and cleanse the body deeply _ u have just never put in the deep work & experienced profound consciousness shifts . Why ? because of your ego limitations , attachments to false concepts sold by society / TV News / your siblings . WHAT about the SOUL infusing ? have u experienced how amazing that process feels like ? probably not ...or not yet . I do not re-create the past ( misunderstanding by your mind ) , i practice a specific Yoga that brings back some of the easy flowing feelings ( from the heart and from the body too ) i experienced when i was 14 /17 /19 / 25 or 29 years old . I know it's possible because i live it every day . Do you know the real power of ancient yogic practices ? i am not talking about the gymnastic like yoga so many spread on their yutube channels that feels really limited and identified only with the body's health ....but the Real Profound alchemical practices & philosophy . Never tasted it ? u should give it a try .....it could change your life around within 2,3 years . I could help u get a taste of it .... 🙏Namaste

    This album tuned my ears into proper music, the 80s was so diverse so I could of easily missed it. But thankfully I heard rattlesnakes and I had to get the album. Which by the way for me had a full albums of no 1s. Forest fire and 2cc being may favourites. This vinyl was on continuous play on my little deca 45. Then I got big country vinyl which was equally amazing then I got sledge hammer roughly all about the same time, and still I can't split them
