OMG! I just logged in to Esnips for the first time today and saw that you favourited more songs of mine than I can count. Surprised

Thank you, thank you, thank you² for that and for your comments! They are most appreciated!!

Last week I have downloaded a truckload of your songs and put them on my mp3 player. Now I have thoroughly digested most of them and I will leave you a comment on them as soon as I find the time.

best wishes,
Flux
