Child of War...
Hello my friends, I feel like it's been forever since I've been around here, but I'm slowly getting back in the groove, I've just had the usual elderly mom duty, but hopefully it will let up soon.:)
Anyway, I just wanted to share with everyone, this video that I stumbled across on the internet. It has my song playing in the background. The theme is the poor children of Iraq, who are so severely impacted by this recent war. The images are graphic and heartbreaking, I have a hard time watching it, but it is so powerful. I felt very honored to know that someone thought that my song was good enough for their video, but at the same time, the theme leaves me stunned and shocked. It all the more makes me feel good that we have our Project Warchild DMD going here on IAC, anything to help these innocent children, God bless them.

Take care all,

It woulda been nice if the guy had contacted you re using your music, but as it is for such a good cause and professionally done, I'm guessing you don't mind......... It sure is good to see you back around these parts again - we been missing you :)
Online Videos by Veoh.com
I put video here so peeps can just click.....
Dont forget to raise awareness of the plight of these poor children and if possible ask folks to put a link to our very own DMD like Gina says:
http://iacmusic.com/dmdcd.aspx?dmdcdid=340570
or ask one of us contributors for the code to put a banner on your webpages, myspace, etc. All proceeds go WarChild in Holland.....

There is a growing understanding across the world that "the war on terror " is in fact "the War of Terror" killing innocents in their own country for generations to come (depleted uranium )
We support you Gina and the War Child cause--------there is now a War Child
stage show performed by teenagers, to a high degree of professionalism!
The audiences have been moved to tears, and constantly give standing ovations at the finale!
The war in Iraq must be the worst PR job in history for the USA!
peace folks please--------think of the kids!!!

Thanks Eaglefriends! I appreciate you putting up the video. I agree, it would have been nice if this guy would have let me know he was using my song. I actually had it up for a free download through the Neil Young site connection, I'm sure that's where he got it.
Thanks for putting up the WarChild DMD link as well, we still need to get the word out...:)
Best to you,
- Gina

Also, thanks for commenting, Man with no band, and Silverwood.:)
That stage show sounds excellent! I've read about the awesome reception that it's getting. Sounds like the word is getting out about the tremendous impact that war has on these poor children.
Take care my friends,
- Gina

Gina ------
much respect to you for your stance, it isn't easy to stand up in your own country
and disagree with the powers that are in control!
We have put the WAR CHILD poster on THE END GAME (station)and on the slide show on our site!
Laree have a look at the axe, it's a real guitar used in the show and is half machine gun . It plays really well!
It was hand crafted by Syd Limbert (Bass player for famous NZ country band "The Warratahs") and is played on stage by Josh Logan, the kid on the Poster, (a superstar in waiting) this kid can play any style, better than the original--------many in the audience believe the sound is taped!!!
Please spread the word about this show, Gavin Richards (the Producer) has created something extraordinary, and it could be franchised all over the world!
Many of the audience are in tears, for most of the production but it has an amazingly uplifting finale!
