Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your article seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue resolved soon. Cheers albanische musik

Yes Soudcloud is really growing to say the least. I have watched them just skyrocket and its very interesting to see. I think every artist should make an account and display their music. This was really fascinating. UpYourPlays.com
