I say that because after listening to the first few measures of music, I was actually alarmed by what I felt was a downright despairing tone, or feel. "My god!" I said to myself, "This sounds like a musical suicide note!"

But then...but then, by the time I arrived at the chorus, the chord changes opened up suddenly to let in just a little light, and Ms. Prince's poetic and transformational lyrics turned the song right on its head:

Can we move through time?
Find the sublime
In every given moment?

Can we openly release?
Change war into peace
Live life with enjoyment?

And, even more:

Is it impossible to fly?
Or is it just that we deny
Our ability to do so?

Ms. Cooper, through the clear waters of your voice, the lyrics end up corresponding to the change in mood by inviting introspection on the part of the listener to consider what answers they might offer to the beautifully worded questions.

Ladies, your song, "Impossible Things", is something that I think should be listened to in a solitary space with no distractions. It could be anyplace from an echoing cave to a clearing in a quiet forest. That's how important your "message" is, that it shouldn't have to compete with anything to be heard.

Most sincerely,

LOREN


Oh my goodness Loren, what an amazing thing to say! You have me with a small tear in my eye. To invoke that kind of reaction through a song is a true privilege and one that I am always grateful for. "A musical suicide note" I can see it now.

Do you mind if I post your comment on the 50 90 forum? I am sure Cindy would absolutely love to read it?
