Heaven's Design is the best song Bobby's ever done IMO. It can stand up to the best singles of the last 15 years. I like it that much. | |

Yeah, I wish it had gotten more airplay!! Unfortunately, I think "Don't Worry, Be Happy" is still that albatross around his neck, at least in terms of general public perception..... ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

... That is a shame. But if folks want to hang onto that myopic view and not see how talented this guy truly is based on the rest of his work, that's their loss. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.
