I Am Strong
**Disclaimer:** The song featured in this post was created with the help of AI tools. These tools provided the instrumental and vocal elements, while I wrote the lyrics and developed very concise and intricate prompts as guides in both the lyrics and prompts fields. This process gave the song its unique and layered depth. The melody is a blend of the rhythm conceived from my lyrics and the output from the AI tools, resulting in the final composition.

My Discogs Shop Is Shrinking
Introduction I have a lot of CDs and a growing collection of vinyl and quite a bit of digital-only music because physical copies are so damned expensive. I have a pile of CDs that I have not played and so am fine to sell them on Discogs. Sometimes I get far more than I paid for them, but most of the time it is around the same as what I paid.

Why One X is Three Days Graces' Magnum Opus
Introduction: The Emotional Resonsance of My Childhood I remember my first encounter with Three Days Grace well. I was only 9 at the time and had no idea the profound impact the day I spent with my cousin would have on my life. We were in the garage talking to my uncle as he worked on some car-related task. The paint-splattered boom box playing a CD I first mistook for a generic rock group. It was the One X CD which had just come out earlier that year.
