"I am not driven by the desire to be famous.  If I live my life experiencing the joy of having a few TRUE friends, then I will have lived a very rich life.  I also don't want to live a life of mediocrity; I truly DO want to press on toward a higher mark.  I want to leave a legacy that will endure for generations.  I want my life to count for something that is bigger than me." 

​ ~Mary Ann Young

WHERE BIRDS CAN FLY  "The title is immediately intriguing, and you set it up aptly within the warmly compelling chorus - And the spiritual undertone of the poetic allegory beautifully distinguishes the theme. So, it's my pleasure to inform you that this song achieved finalist status.  Congratulations - we wish you all the best in your songwriting pursuits.  I hope we'll hear more from you in the years ahead.  Keep writing, learning and pursuing your craft. " ~ Judge (Music Industry Professional) from Great American Song Contest 2019.

WHERE BIRDS CAN FLY  " What a beautiful song and the melody sets the perfect, serious mood for this emotional lyric...I think this song is compelling and I could see it working in a documentary film or TV show having to do with women in this situation... Thank you for writing this song.  I think you're very gifted and I appreciate that you have important things to say through your music. " ~Taxi.com

A GREAT BIG WORLD  "This song displays wonderful songwriting talents - an engaging theme, potent lyrical imagery and excellent melodic structure.  Rarely do I have the opportunity to hear such compassionate, emotionally resonant work...for goodness sake please keep writing and bringing beautiful songs into the world.  God luck with your music!"  ~Judge (Music Industry Professional) for Great American Song Contest 2008
