[tunnelends]

it will surrender, it will succumb

to the land

of the rising sun

I am so glad to hear your song voicing shimmers of light to all people who might be giving in to darkness. I have such faith in the Japanese people to find out, do, and demonstrate, what the rest of us can hardly concieve of, what needs to be done, that whole populations require, to change every basis, structure and impact of our combined efforts with no more interference confusing the criteria for health, safety and prosperity

[telenestix]

respect man you have great voice !! nice one

[Luv2livlife]

This so beautiful, there are no other words I can say

Great song, you can sing very well

[sadiengo]

Just awesome JC. Truly a master piece of work from the mind and heart of a talented and passionate artist in our generation. JC by far this is one of your more passionate songs in a long line true hit wonders. But I feel in my own opinion that the chorus needed a little more spark or fire ignited underneath it to give it more luster and shine. But either way it is a stand out amongst others you have done. Congratulations on a well deserved applause from myself and your fans who love you.

[jcvanluyn]

@sadiengo too Kind, Kel. hope school is doing great for you...one more month to go!

[ScarletLetter62]

Perfect <3
