..In the middle of the night In a rough, dark and smokey club as if right in Trenchtown -I was pretty young- I heared the strongest music notes ever. I felt unreal, I’d never heared something like that before..!

Of course that night I asked right away who that singer was but I couldnt hear the deejay; the music was just too loud. Didnt matter cause an older girl danced with me and I was in love for the rest of the week after..:)
