A Song For Granny (Soul) |

Track Comments
MLII featuring the voice of my Granny Pierce. This song is dedicated to the woman who raised me. She will always be with me. This song was very difficult for me to sing. This is the one take that I could get completely through the song. The instrumental of this was the last song my Granny heard before she passed on. Enjoy your wings Granny.
