There is absolutely no reason why “Decisions”, the debut single by Charles Cleyn, couldn’t become one of this Summer’s big hits.

Anna Aaron, musician from Basel, Switzerland, is having it: “Why not suck at the most basic human decency?” In her 3:10 minutes rant, she bitterly complains about somebody’s inability to so things the right way.
