FAN COMMENTSHi JT,This is Rickey Wright, I love your song "This is your Day" - great melody, great, great lyrics. I am kind of a lyrics guy, if I can't say something really unique in my songs, I don't write them. I do not listen to many songs all the way through on here, because, quite frankly they just do not hold my attention. However, yours was one that I listened to the very end. Great job, and I wish you the best in the competition, hope you win.Rickey
