Sarah Spencer new Album with Steve Morse."AngelFire."
I have had the honor of working with Sarah since 2001 when I heard her amazing songs and a voice that is pure "Heaven sent."
She is in my opinion the best singer songwriter of her generation and I am so looking forward to adding Sarah's new version of "My Desire" in the English language.(Will be on my music player / page by the end of January)
Please see to http://www.angelfiremusic.com/ listen to extracts of Sarah's new album "AngelFire” which is co written with the brilliant Steve Morse (Deep Purple / Dixie Dregs). Also there are tour dates, pictures and more information on the album release.

"Beautiful is the moment in which we understand that we are no more than an instrument of God; we live only as long as God wants us to live; we can do only as much as God makes us able to; we are only as intelligent as God would have us be." Archbishop Oscar Romero, from his last homily, March 23, 1980.
I hope you like my Christmas card and poem and additional card / pictures. May your love “glow.”

“Candle in the window.”
“A light as pure as an Angels Glow A gentle breeze sparks a flickering light to Heavens Path. Through the open window flies a brown majestic Moth He dances round the table cloth Fluttering flirtatiously enticed to the flame Like water to a cloud and flowers in the rain.
An aura of starlight Glowing embers of radiance so clear You take away the darkness The hopelessness, the fear.
Calming, graceful, romancing, dancing on the window sill A light for my memories Inspiration for my dreams A candle by the open window God Bless the Grace you give me A moment so serene.”

Once again I have a favour to ask of everyone out there in the MySpace world, and I’m sorry because I know these things can get a bit annoying, but every vote counts, and I am happy to return the favour if you need me to vote or rate anything of yours, so… if you get the chance could you please rate my new song “Million Miles Away” on Triple J Unearthed?
“I should get a normal life, but I don't really want one, so will stay who I am” (A quote by some daft fool setting up Paul Weston Arts! See links below.)
Thank you so much for all your support and please feel free to enter my crazy new world!
Hope you like the card and have a wonderful weekend.
Peace love and happiness.

“Dance”
“The expression of love, grace an elegance A movement of intimacy, empowerment, romance Riding the crest of an ocean wave Gliding through the air on a breezy day My body on Earth my soul reaches away To Heaven. The religion of rhythm A moth to a candle A key to a slave of Pleasure and pain I take my first emancipated steps Freedom This is my chance. That’s where I go When I Dance.”
