~Finding Juliet's House~
As most of you know it is "fair Verona where we lay our scene", tucked between two shops on Via Capello, just off of Piazza delle Erbe, heading towards Porta Leoni. To be honest, it is not hard to find - just look for the mass of tourists gathering outside the gates.

This album is very good, it contains a diverse selection of songs, there is something on here for all music tastes. It also has something for all moods from the sombre "talkshow host" by Radiohead to the upbeat party anthem "young hearts run free" by Kym more
