Song dedication: Surfing On Solar Winds
A few days ago, I received a Facebook invite to a surprise birthday party for Alice (who so kindly reviewed our SeaStars album last year). I didn’t attend the party but I emailed Alice to wish her happy birthday.
And I dedicated this song to her, in lieu of a birthday present. Plus an apology for being a “cheapo”.
Alice replied: “Thank you. 
The song is wonderful. Hope you don’t mind, I downloaded it for keeping.“
Mind? Absolutely not!
Since you liked it, it’s yours. Literally. I’m extending the rights to the song to you. For what it’s worth, you’re a copyright co-owner now.
Happy belated birthday!
p.s. Apparently Jean (the person behind the Simply Jean group blog) organised the surprise party and kept Alice in the dark about the Facebook invite. What a pal. Incidentally, Jean might be blogging under a different blog.

Really speechless to know that you are extending the rights of the song to me. It is a pleasant shocking great present. Very touched and love it.
It is really such a special gift. This is my first present that surprises me to speechless. It is also the first song I co-own. Just too please and do not know what to say. Happily grinning away.

Heh, you’re welcome! “Pleasant Shocking Great Present”… sounds like a title of a song, hahaha.
