In Tall Buildings.

My brother came to visit Chicago & I took him to the Skydeck of the Willis (formerly Sears) Tower. It's 103 stories above the ground. I highly recommend it; the view is breathtaking. Looking through the glass floors straight down to the city below is... quite the experience.

Reminds me of the views from another fabulous city.

 It's the Empire State Building!

I love cover songs. Standards are set, revisited, and transformed through covers. These interpretations can all be linked together by Six Degrees of Music Separation.
