Hell, they'll do all that and more! Some places will even write you a song and film a music video with their equipment: [VIDEO] Now if you'll excuse me, I need to find a bowl and some cereal.

I'm pretty sure bankers hate this song [1] by now. On a more serious note, this was to be expected, I was basically asking the same thing on here a few days ago [2] and I'm not an institutional investor handling billions of dollars/euros in investments. I do wonder though when it will all stabilise? Will it stabilise? Is there anything stabile left to stabilise, so to speak? [1] [VIDEO] [2] [LINK]

Did you listen to Kim's music. It is an interesting combination of Rebecca Black [VIDEO] and Justin B. I like it. My life is precious. I get to choose who I am. Words to live by. I wonder why he isn't getting more attention for his music...
