I believe that we, as musicians, have a very special opportunity to be able to pull people away from their life even if only for a brief moment in time. Sometimes that won't lead to anything other than a brief diversion, but other times, it might lead to something more. What an incredible gift :-) <br /><br />Thank you for sharing, Natalie.

Perhaps I should open my window, invite the looks instead of shy away from them...anything to demystify the myth of inacessible divadom!Natalie Pelusohttp://www.singyourtruth.comnoreply@blogger.com
