One more saying HI!

[Serotonin]

I've been meaning to join this site for quite sometime, but a long term, very heavy work commitment (now easier) and a frustrating slow computer (now fixed) made it difficult. For those same reasons, I'm not a member of any social internet site (I was a while ago, but there was no point, as I couldn't take part). I'm also a little bit shy.

I managed to visit here at every opportunity, enough to discover how great this site is, so friendly and so informative. I absolutely love reading the members reviews and opinions on albums, on a particular song and on musicians. You guys could put many music journalists to shame with your knowledge and passion for the subjects. And the occasional girlish comments on the boys' looks - both on the forum and on the gallery - are quite entertaining and always bring me a smile

Japan's music and David's solo and collaboration works have been part of my life since the eighties and I have followed David's career ever since, getting excited with every new project and with every announced tour. From 'Ghosts' to 'Small Metal Gods', David's lyrics, his voice and beautiful melodies have helped me more than I care to admit. Yes, my obsession hasn't diminished at all over the years... if anything, it has increased!

And finally (yes, I do talk too much!), I would like to thank each person who runs this site for their fantastic work, their love and dedication. Also, a big thank you to everyone who goes through the trouble (searching, scanning etc) of posting those wonderful photos on the Gallery. All your work is very much appreciated.

Love to all. xx

Welcome, Serotonin.
It's always great when a (almost) new brother/sister steps into SylvianKarnJansenBarbieriland.

Hello! Great intro - wish I'd said something so eloquent when I first joined. And please talk - talk lots!

Hello Nath from Paris, inkinthewell from Italy and Hawk from the UK,

Thank you so much for such warm welcome . I apologise for not replying earlier - everyday life always gets in the way.
... and Hawk, I really wish I was eloquent! I love your posts, they are so poetic and lovely.
As a matter of fact, I enjoy reading everyone's posts; each one has their own way to express themselves and I'm always learning something new.
Love to all.

Hello and welcome, thanks for all your kind words. To be honest it's not always possible to get on here and post,sometimes
i can go few weeks without , due to varying degrees of work commitments and the daily wirl that is family life.
