About Me

Hello friend. Hope you like the songs I've uploaded for you!

I recorded a song for my mom to give to her on mothers day. it's an old Hep Stars song called Sunny girl (written by Benny Anderson, later in ABBA), and it was one of my mom's favorite songs in the 60s. Don't know what Benny was thinking when he wrote the line "she is property", but I don't think his english was very good at the time...
