MY very own SONG!!!


My friend, the amazingly talented Tara Rice, wrote this song and then directed the music video with lots of red wine. I am so honoured!! I can't believe I have my own song. Top of my charts ;) Nothing can top the ridiculousness that was the making of, or the hangover that followed. Hehehe I think the video really keeps it true to my personal motto:
'As long as someones laughing'
