W." Subject: Re: News: The word on Indonesia, album progress, etc Hello all, sorry for not replying ASAP cause I was out of town in the last days. -- About the news that Basia will not go to Indonesia, I have guessed it. I believe that she has the best reason in taking the decision. It is not easy: if she went, she would get a lot of new things in music but the new album would have to wait; besides she has not had many new songs to sing yet - though nobody here would mind with it. If she did not go, the album would be on time but she would not get a lot of new things (e.g. various Indonesian musics). Well, there will be next time for optimistic people, right? :-) -- About her next album, at least we know that one of the songs is Clear Horizon. The other 9? Who knows? -- About Basia doing a car commercial in Japan, it reminds me to the topic of Basia sound alike years ago. At that time, I said that the vocalist in the VW Phaeton commercial sounds like her. I never thought that she would sing in a car commercial but she does it! Got to listen to it! ---- Czesc, Desianto F.
