Anyone who knows me knows that I have a bit of an obsession with round glasses. It's the only style of frames I wear. Since the popularity of Harry Potter, people think I wear round glasses because of the books and movies. However, the truth behind my love for round glasses goes back to John Lennon. I don't know what it is, but I just really like round glasses. And throughout the history of rock music, five rockers have made wearing round glasses cool.
