Hi Donna,

Thank you so much for the beautiful compliments. You don't know how much I really appreciate that you like it.

Caroline,

This is all your doing, lol. I was a little shy for you to tell people this was my vocal, but I guess they would probably guess anyway. I had to pretend like I was someone else to do justice to it, but I do love motown and R&B and soul, and Aretha Franklin has been my idol since I was a child, so I tried a version I thought she would do.

Yes, you did write a much more simple lyric than you usually do, but I really love simple sometimes.

I had fun, and if it had some real bluesy soulful organ, saxaphone or guitar it would probably come alive more. I can't do that though, lol. Maybe you can find one of good lead players in here that would like to try their hand at dubbing in some great blues lead?

Thanks again for your interesting writing, Caroline.

Letha
