I'll have to agree and disagree with Rijko on that one. Bach Street Prelude is on of my favorite that make my top 5 VM list. I find it to be a very playfull and engaging remake of that classical piece. She did not alter the origial spirit of the piece, she simply improved on it, extracting its full...

Hummm ... I would tend to agree with Arioch ... It is true that chat rooms conversations are utterly unorganized, often pointless (heck, i m the king of pointless arguments) , and you can bet that most of the conversation will not turn around VM.
