Divine Love

a prayer and a call to action

Dear Fabulous Fans! Thank you for all of the beatiful comments and encouragement. Your listening has boosted Ruins of the Heart to #2 in World music globally and #1 in the US. I am so honored and humbled by your outpouring of love. I recorded a new single in January, entitled Divine Love. It's a bit of a change from my usual fare, and was written in response to the unfathomable violence that humanity is capable of inflicting on its own kind in the name of peace, freedom, justice, security, and especially religion. It is both a prayer and a call to action. I hope you like it and that sales (it's only $1.29) will generate some funds to complete my new CD. Please check it out and spread the word. May the world become a better place in 2015. Yours - Lua
