This music that you play over this video is amazing I keep finding myself humming it

The Sears Tower/Willis Tower is still to me the most beautiful building I've ever seen. All of them are beautiful and unique in their own way. I guess because I was born and raised in Chicago. But it's just a beautiful architectural wonder to me.🗽🗼
