A Cup of Tea & Biscuits

I've been reading quite furiously of late. And watching a lot of Sherlock Holmes and Peter Wimsey movies. Sherlock Holmes, here, refers to the 2010 BBC miniseries with Benedict Cumberbatch (ah, the voice) as Sherlock and Martin Freeman as Dr. Watson . I loved it! The new, updated Sherlock Holmes is as every bit enjoyable as the Edwardian detective! Rupert Graves , who plays D.I. Lestrade, soon became my fixation. And so, being the fan girl that I am, I went on to YouTube and while browsing through fan videos, came across Skillet , a band whose name I was familiar with, but knew little about their music.

I probably should add here that I would term the present genres of dance, pop and whatever sub or mash-up genre artists like Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Kesha, Nicki Minaj, Bruno Mars (I liked one song of his, 'Grenade', but can't listen to it more than a few times) and whoever else is the big thing right now, but that would make me list almost WAY TOO MANY tracks that I would NOT treat my ears to, hence sticking with The Reason.
