Roy Zimmerman's "Hope, Struggle, and Change"

My debut album is now available: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/mollybauckham

(No Roy Z covers on this album, alas...maybe the next one!)

This may be my favorite Roy Zimmerman song to date...and that's saying something! From the moment it brought me to tears at the last concert I attended, I knew I was going to have to sing it. (Yes, I know...Roy Z covers have officially taken over my channel! Oh, well.)

Once again, Roy has used his lyrical genius to illuminate a really important point for anyone concerned with social justice to remember: there can be no "hope and change" without struggle and setbacks. This song is a wonderfully upbeat and positive (and catchy!) way to present the message; I can only hope I've done it justice.

Thanks again to Roy Z and Melanie H for their inspiration and encouragement!

Wow, Molly! Melanie and I watched simultaneously on different coasts, and said "Wow, Molly!" in unison. Nicely done.
