Hey Glen,
Your music is amazing! I loved 'FREE'. You remind me of an Australian artist - Mark Lizotte or DIESEL as he is now known (previously Johnny Diesel)...

That's a big compliment as he is also awesome!
Kind Regards
Rachael

This is the song of amazingly high and also light energy! Your owning an acoustic guitar is awesome! Either sound or skills are very good! So "good singing - good playing!"... PS: I'm not able to estimate your lyrics. :D
