Mel - Congratulations on two outstanding songs...both captivating. The guitar and vocals on the first one delivery a great message...and I'm sure everyone will love "On The Up". You're a gifted and talented guitarist and vocalist. The video techniques were also very enjoyable with great transitions and fades with a terrific message by Einstein at the end. Continued success..your songs are inspiring!

thanks for sharing

[beachfrontal]

Have you heard of celtic thunder,they would love to sing dreams of eden,sounds so much like their songs,how you get it to them NO idea, but MEL try & find a way of getting it to them,there are many videos on YT, I think there is a fan club too the instrumental is very much them too.

At last I have figured you out, thinking about it most of your songs if not all of them would be great given the Celtic thunder treatment.you should compose for them,they're Irish check them out,very big in the USA.

[amazongift]

Hi David, I've seen Celtic thunder and I'm very impressed..It may be worth a try getting the songs to them..I'm glad you think they're good enough...All the best my friend....Mel
