SL B. Says:
Jun 12, 2008Sometimes when I listen to "ammature" music (singers, writers and muscians) I think how clearly they are -- and how un-selfaware they are of their talents. This guy is different -- if I heard this song on the radio it wouldn't be misplaced -- and I might want to buy the CD.
Lori F. Says:
Jun 13, 2008What a beautiful song. I'm just a casual music listener, not a performer, but I've listened to it about 100 times now. Would LOVE to hear it on the radio or better yet, a whole CD of his music!
Maria P. Says:
Jun 15, 2008Rick, you never cease to amaze us!!! Awesome!!!
Andrea D. Says:
Jun 16, 2008I agree with SL B, you could totally picture hearing this song on the radio! The melody is catchy and the vocals are full of feeling. Love it!
