HI,
MY NAME IS DEBBIE AKA D-HIPS. I ENTERED THE AMERICAN IDOL SONGWRITER CONTEST. PLEASE GO TO MY PAGE AT www.MYSPACE.COM/DHIPS AND LISTEN TO MY SONG. THE LYRICS DESCRIBE THE JOURNEY THE FINALIST HAD TO TRAVEL. THAT’S WHY IT’S SO IMPORTANT THAT WE HONOR AND “REMEMBER THE JOURNEY” THE FINALIST ENDURED JUST TO GET TO THE END OF THE COMPETITION. THAT’S THE NAME OF MY SONG, “REMEMBER THE JOURNEY”. I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU OR SOMEONE WOULD LISTEN TO MY SONG AND DON’T JUDGE THE SINGING QUALITY, BUT THE LYRICS WHICH ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE CONTESTANTS.
THANKS,
DEBBIE AKA D-HIPS www.MYSPACE.COM/DHIPS
I hope their will be more songs to choose from.
I FOUND THAT SONG QUITE BORING. BUT YOUR WEB PAGE LOOKS GREAT. GOODLUCK
STEVE
