Comments for For Eli

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE, THIS PIECE IS SO MUCH GREATER THAN LAST PLACE. THE MESSAGE IS POWERFUL, REAL, AND THERE IS A NEED FOR ALL TO HEAR THIS, BECAUSE, IT SEEMS TO ME WE HAVE BECOME NUMB TO THE FACT THAT A SOLDIER DIES DAILY IN IRAQ AND FOR THOSE THAT DON'T DIE IN THE PHYSICAL, A PART OF THEM DIES INSIDE. MY SISTA, DO KNOW THAT THIS IS A POWERFUL SOUL STIRRING PIECE
