Dear Mr. Bolton, dear Michael,

if I had a chance of meeting you, I would like to ask you this question:

there is a radio station in Germany called „Radio Bremen 1“, which gives the opportunity to everybody of choosing a song, which you would like to send to other people/friends on occasion of birthday, childbirth, passing of an exam, et cetera. One only tells to the radio staff which song by which singer one would like to send to a friend + what one would like to express by this song (which message for the recipient one has) and this radio station makes the „song-wish“ come true and broadcasts it, so that all people, but primarily the friend can listen to the song.

A good (female) friend of mine, member of this forum, lost her mother some weeks ago. She was very very sad and I wanted to send her a song of yours in order to express my deepest sympathy. A song about the pain, when one looses a good friend, partner or parents. And I realised, that there was no ballad in your repertoire, which I could have sent her. A song, about how difficult it is, when one looses a loved person, about that one never thought there would come a time „the lifetime story“ ends, how difficult it is to understand the death, but one has to try to survive the moment, how thankful one was for all the joy one shared with the loved person, how much one wanted the person back again and hold her hand, how much one remembers the great time one had together, the memories, how clearly one still hears the laughter of hers, when one closes the eyes, but one have to say good bye…..

As your mother died some months ago and I can imagine how much you loved her, I would like to ask you whether you plan on composing/recording an emotional ballad about your feelings, as I am sure, many of us would love it and would identify with you and other people, who went through this tough time.

Thank you very much and wish you all the best

your fan Ivana from Munich, Germany
