  • I have been meaning to post about the fact that, together, we crossed a huge milestone on this Facebook page less than 2 weeks ago: 100,000 likes! That’s a lot of people, and a lot of encouragement! And, believe it or not, over 60,000 of those came in the last year alone. Huzzah!
    Unfortunately, the threshhold was crossed in the middle of my bout with influenza, and so my appreciatory post was delayed. But NOW, without further ado, I give you my absolute favorite song about counting backwards by a band named after a continent. Enjoy! (And so on, and so forth)

      True, even though he can't reach some high notes that Freddie can hit, for example The Show Must Go On live with Queen Extravaganza.
      But he is an amazing singer with a powerful voice

      He was blowing people's minds long before he ever did a Queen cover. He had a band called Downhere from 1999-2012. They toured the world and earned many awards in Canada.

    Marc is a musical chameleon. He can cover many genres of music and make it so beautiful, emotional and easy on the ears and heart. He is a natural born singer given the gift of song. Doesn't get any better than that!
