They played almost the whole song and I'm sure it's no piece from any of her regular albuns. It's probably been aired in the US some time ago, but has anyone also caught it ? It was a typically Shawn-ish song, and i'd love to get my hands on it. Thanks, Rodrigo - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@smoe.org with 'unsub scribe small-repairs' in the message body.
