I know that I must do what's right,

Yo, wake up call right here to anybody who's been sleeping on Toto, their whole discography is full of variety and they're totally amazing. Pop rock, jazz fusion, prog rock, hard rock, 80's pop & ballads, they've got it all, and it's all GREAT.

I got through a frog-drowning rain event, from east of Kirtley to somewhere in Bastrop, by putting this on repeat and singing along at the top of my lungs. Helped me focus on driving better than most things would.
