Dear Everyone, Recently I won an award for having the #1 position on the Power XR West Coast Radio Network for my song "Memory Number One", which is the second time that this song has achieved #1 in the past year. Other Awards have come to me as well over the past few months, especially for my song "We All Need Our Heroes" which has now won several. I must admit that whilst it's great to get them, I do feel a little overwhelmed by it! And life just keeps on getting better! The Akademia Awards Gala Event will be streamed live from the Akademia Studios in Los Angeles on 18th April, and I have received the following email from them today: "You've been officially nominated by The Akademia for The Akademia Executive Award (our highest honor) for exceptional talent, dedication and contribution to the field of music. This is a significant accomplishment to be selected out of thousands of top contenders from all around the world!" Over the past few years I have won several awards from Akademia, the latest arriving to me very recently. This accolade quite astounds me! I feel both honoured and humbled by it. I would love to share my success with all of you, and so if you care to email me at music@sheerjoymusic.com over the before the 21st April then I will send you an MP3 of any ONE of my songs you would like to select from my N1M playlist as a way of thanking you all for your continuing support. Warm regards, Colin Gordon-Farleigh
