The Gift of Music Update

Many, many thanks to each and every one of you!

“Global Gifting Day” —  aka the”Gift of Music Day”– was more successful than we ever imagined and kept us busy fulfilling gifts of music up until…well…pretty much now!

A big thank you to all of our wonderful street team donors, workers and cheerleaders!  And thank you to all the recipients for signing up and for your patience as we worked to fulfill the demand.

In case you missed it, “The Last Song I’ll Write for You” quickly bounded up the Amazon singles chart on Wednesday as “#thegiftofmusic” trended #2 worldwide on twitter!  And, as of late, last night (Friday), “The Last Song I’ll Write for You” continued to chart in the top 100 songs and was listed as the #2 top rated single on Amazon!

Way to go TEAM!

Again, thanks to you all.
