Never Enough - The Cure
There are certain people who walk into your life quietly… and somehow end up changing it completely. When we got stationed in Germany, our room was supposed to be temporary. Just three guys trying to figure things out far away from home. New country. New routines. New reality.Then one day, THIS guy shows up... Our fourth roommate. Now at first, he was just another soldier carrying a duffel bag through the door. But before getting him squared away, helping him unpack his gear… I asked him a simple question, “Did you bring any music from the States?”And I’ll never forget what happened next. He pours his duffel bag onto a bunk, and it was like somebody dumped out my entire personality out on it. Albums I loved. Bands I thought nobody else knew or liked. Songs that had already become part of my life. At that moment, something clicked.After we got all his uniforms, boots, and gear handled, we went out for a drink… and ended up talking the entire night. Music. Life. Home... Everything. And from that night forward, we were pretty much inseparable. What ever we ended up doing, good or bad... It was, "Never Enough!"Some friendships take years to build. Others happen in a single moment.And somehow… this song became part of My Life Through Music!This is "Never Enough."

Empire - Queensrÿche
This was the first weekend that we had where, as a Battery, we didn't have much going on... And, we were getting ready to go out to the field for about three weeks! So, we did what we felt was the only thing to do, and that was to PARTY!!!! And party we did. That weekend I met some more very cool people and was initiated into a cool ritual that included MUSIC!But after partying with a group of really cool guys, there was something missing, a true brother. Someone who I could experience this new country, its culture, and its people with. Someone who would get just as much out of this experience and opportunity as I would. As they say, "The Lord works in mysterious ways..." I didn't realize it yet, but that brother was already on his way there!https://youtu.be/8igvj3lrTz4?si=G09CMsI9jCdlaHNZ - "Empire" - QueensrÿcheReferenced Songs:https://youtu.be/FYX74wd6ff0?si=BvJpGHZYX2SJXqtl - "Queen of the Riech" Queensrÿchehttps://youtu.be/0DgRHUJKxVs?si=YskVcFwDs4UlCcTj - "Take Hold of the Flame" - QueensrÿcheOne Cool thing that my new friend from Prescott did was at the end of the night when it was his turn to choose a song, he said, this next one is for my new "Homeboy!" Then he played Anthrax's "Room for One More."
