      • THE ADMIRAL FREEBIRD

         Hello there, I'm a musician, a singer / songwriter from Italy with a full time day job and I spend a lot of time online trying to get people to come and listen to my music. That's harder work than it sounds when you're unknown and unsigned so thanks again for connecting with me on here

        Sweetie!
        I get the blues when it rains...
        I sit and wait for the sun....
        To shine on me once again...
        I haven't got a fella' not even an umbrella...
        go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUblD31y95Q ;;
        Love always, Annette, "That's All."
