Giving Back The Best Way I Know How |

We are approaching the 10th year since the tragic events on 9/11. I woke up to the radio announce the news, and I thought I was still in a dream. I ran to the TV, turned it on just in time to witness the first tower tumble down. I still felt I was dreaming.
Next day my producer called and said WRITE A SONG....NOW! I could believe he would ask me to do such a thing. How could I form even thoughts yet alone a song at such a time. But I went to my keyboard and through my tears wrote my tribute song "We're Not Falling From Grace". The next day my husband and I drove cross country to record it. Every stated we passed through had a bunch of flags hung out from buildings. Every person we meant along the trip held out their hand to shake ours. I have never witnessed any such Unity before.
This song has been featured, along with it's video, in New York & Paris during memorial concerts. I have never made a dime from it. I give it out free of charge via CD's to people I meet, and through downloads. I have sent 1000 copies to our troupes. This song isn't mine alone. It is our Nations. It was the only way I knew to give back.
Please take a listen, share with others, and always remember.
