Austria: The Gift that Keeps On Giving!

It's my favorite time of year in Michigan: the leaves are changing, the cider's chillin', and the good vibes in the autumn air are plentiful. So, I hafta ask, how do you follow up a record setting week for 'Walk of Shame' at #1 on the Austrian radio heavy-rotation playlist? Hit #2 with 'Pretty Please' the very next week! I think I should now print up a bumper sticker reiterating the signature phrase from 'Field of Dreams'..."if you build it, they will come..." If you really put your heart into it and create some great tunes, folks will find 'em (and I couldn't be happier)! Enjoy the crisp autumnal air, y'all, since we know Old Man Winter planning his comeback. Ironically enough, so is my Christmas tune 'Save Your Cookies for Me' (but that's for another blog)...

Thank You, Austria!

Geez Louise, what a wonderful surprise to wake up to! There I was, enjoying a quiet moment with my dear friend Mr. Grande Non-fat Cappuccino, when up popped my inbox with a note from Country Radio Carinzia in Austria. Seems as though "Walk of Shame" has just been voted #1 by the listeners for the week of Oct. 10-16! THANK YOU, AUSTRIA! I will now use Google Translate to express my gratitude...heh hem:

Wir danken Ihnen, das schöne Land mit viel Geschmack in Country-Musik ... und danke für Arnold Schwarzenegger, too!

(Thank you to the beautiful country with great taste in country music...and thanks for Arnold Schwarzenegger, too!)

...what? Come on, you know you still love Kindergarten Cop...

Lovely Line Dancing...

Thought I'd share a couple of great vids that were just sent to me! As you know, I cut my teeth in Detroit's biggest honky-tonk where line dancing and two-steppin' were part of the gig 5 nights a week, so the dance floor always has a special place in my heart. Just knowing these fancy feet chose the 'Walk of Shame' to showcase their talent rocks my ever-lovin' world! Kudos, ladies...yeee haaaw!
