This post is to test how including music in a post works in wordpress. The song itself though, I really like all the same. It’s surprisingly, from an anime called ‘Bartender’ which centers around a homely bar in the trendiest part of Tokyo. The premise is that every so often someone would come into this bar and talk to the young bartender about a problem or dilemma they were facing in life, or a struggle with their own personal demons.

This super talented bartender would fix you a drink that would, through analogy to the history of the spirit or some other kind of logic, teach you an important lesson or help you find your way. I figured it really was a premise that was too off the wall to be dull. In actuality though, it fell short by over relying on lame anime convention, but it also had it’s unexpectedly grand and unexpectedly quiet sweeping moments too.
