Savanna's voice makes me cry every time. There, I said it.

the best interview I have with with them so far - so personal, so close - from germany

[@karentillotson2181]

I am so glad that the original post was organic and charming. The words to The Prayer were perfect for that dark time around the world. People were afraid, confused, scared.
I saw the post on Facebook when it popped up with views in the 3,000s. I literally got chills when I heard it and knew it was going to go viral!
I've been a fan early on and it has been a blast watching Savanna and Mat's journey.

For Savanna's sports movie, I thought of "Rocky", starring Sylvester Stallone. That was a long time ago, but the music is so inspirational! So good 😊🎉
