Praise the Lord!
i found jesus.

Yeah! How'd you know? Did you put him there?
She is awesome. I did not know about the vocal cord issue, no wonder there's no new music. Her facebook posts are funny.
@dmdm - yeah, he stops by periodically and quite magnaminously, turns our ice water into beer!
@funoka - glad u enjoyed!
very nice and dam shame about the voice, I bet thats been a big shift for her
and though she doesn't let on - a heartbreaker
long tine gone my friend - I trust all is well?
All good down here mate, been a little busy of late and the computer has been going so slow I cant listen with stopping to load all the time, kinda puts you off. I hope its humming along for you
Yes, that must have been incredibly hard to hear her diagnosis at the time. These songs are really good!
I especially like His Lamest Flame
