To Freedy Johnston
Music makes the world go 'round. Someone said that, and we here at Nice Magazine agree whole-heartedly. NM is a fan of singer / songwriter, Freedy Johnston, not only because his music rocks, but because we happen to know that he is a pretty great cat. We caught wind of this letter written to Freedy's fan club recently by a devoted Israeli fan and we thought you'd be inspired by his devotion:
Well I'm not sure if there's anyone left at this address but I'll figure I might as well try anyway...
I got an e-mail from a friend 4 months ago with the exciting news of the promo/demo cd but according to the new site info the cd is gone
I feel kinda bad about missing it but unfortunately I was pretty much unavailable to the world for the last couple of months.
As bad luck happens I happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time (which is not a very hard thing to imagine, as I live in Israel)
I was one of the relatively-more-lucky victims of a terrorist bombing. spent the past 4.5 months of my life learning to walk again after several spine operations and somebody up there must have a soft spot for me as I am alive and (almost) kicking and ready to go back to University and resume life..
All this aside, just to explain my tardiness, I really can't accept a total loss here - any chane you have an extra copy lying around? I have been a Freedy Fan for years (I bought Live at 33 1/3 from the site a coupla years back and I have been playing "never home" and "this perfect world" (my personal favorite cds) to death (or pain as it was) over the last months. I could use a freedy injection. If you 're in touch with Freedy please let him know his music literally got me back on my feet again.
If you still have one or if one turns up please let me know! I will gladly post whatever sum required.
