I am sure a lot of Nigerians like myself who grew up in the 70's will appreciate if you can make more songs available. Songs like Wings, Apostles, etc. Thanks again.

I don't know, man. This blogging thing isn't something I'm really predisposed to do, though I like reading blogs. It's a kind of selfishness really. I'd sooner spend my literary energies composing a poem than thinking about what to blog about, and I don't really care to talk about myself personally so that shuts out a considerable source of material (well maybe not that much, its not like I live a life of high adventure). I actually thought about blogging about why I don't like blogging (the dreaded meta-blog!) but then I thought, "What would be the point of that?"Objectifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14100231729836206975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26746300.post-86910581358595712272007-10-11T12:45:00.000-05:002007-10-11T12:45:00.000-05:00Well yea that’s the issue with being a part of the...Well yea that’s the issue with being a part of the 1.5 immigrant generation.

I'm not so keen on the movie with the aspiring singers though. I have to admit when I began watching the trailer the first thing that came to my mind was Brazilian flavored Honey. Also, for a movie about music the music was kinda meh.Objectifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14100231729836206975noreply@blogger.com
