    I will play this for my husband of 62+ years. He now has advanced stage Parkinson's disease with dementia. This was our song, and I believe that he will respond. First I need to stop crying. [I called it!! He watched the whole time, and he even sang a bit! Thank you!!]

      Thank you for sharing this testimony. What a blessing you shared with your husband, watching this clip! My beloved wife was diagnosed w/ PD about 6 years ago... She just turned 67; five days before retiring. Twenty two years ago we watched PD take my dear father; after 10+ years' of steady decline... So we both know what may lie ahead. But God is good. And we're alive today by His grace. May we all rejoice in the beauty of His love & moments of simple grace.

      Austin Brown, I listened to The Righteous Brothers & Elvis Presley last night, just to compare, & You Are Much Better Than Both!!! I partly feel so strongly about that, because a lot of noises bother me, & I don't feel so dumb for hurting myself when I listen to you sing. I enjoy it much more. If you could do a bunch of songs with Just Your Voice, I think you'll find a small but devoted market for it.
      I was asking Jim Cramer, this stock guy, if he could buy the Taco Cabanas in San Antonio, so that I don't lose money on the stock, & I mentioned that one of the Taco Cabanas had seriously BAD, noisy music. I then mentioned that your music would be Much better. I think he already owns 2 restaurants. I don't know if he ever has live music in his restaurants, but you might ask, & just give him the link to your music. You can Google him on RUclips, & he has an email listed there. It's really to ask about stocks, but I'm sure he'd love your "Unchained Melody", & maybe Christmas music, at the least.

The movie was to show a low security prison where family and friends could visit prisoners in a more social setting. It pretty much failed, but is still exists and has both high and low security sections.

      because we take form in your act of drawing us,
      and we take life in your painting us,
      and we breathe in your singing us.
      But only for so short a while
      have you loaned us to each other.
      Because even a drawing cut in obsidian fades,
      and the green feathers, the crown feathers,
      of the Quetzal bird lose their color,
      and even the sounds of the waterfall
      die out in the dry season.
      So, we too, because only for a short while
      have you loaned us to each other.

Wow, what a pair. Only the late Whitney Houston is on this level, imo.
