For this week’s post, I’ve brought in a guest musician: EphemeralDreamer! Be sure to check out his blog and follow him on Twitter! EphemeralDreamer is deaf and uses hearing aids, which makes his musicianship all the more remarkable. (It also makes him a cyborg, which is awesome.)

This week’s song is a rendition of Billy Joel’s “She’s Always a Woman to Me.” You can blame any timing problems on EphemeralDreamer’s agent (me). Enjoy! Continue reading Guilty Crown 18 — She’s Always a Woman to Me (WITH MUSIC!) →
