MySpace wiped out Dawn’s account recently. We had built her page up to 35,000 friends. We would ask that you spread the word as to what happened to see if we can get some of Dawn’s friends back before her Video is released.
There will be aspects of Dawn’s video that have never been done in a music video before. And probably will never happen again. As unique and special of a person Dawn was to those who knew her.
Our goal was to make this video a reflection of those same qualities that Dawn possessed. As well as sending a message as it relates to cancer.
MySpace may have killed the number of people Dawn’s video will reach. And even though Dawn is no longer with us. We won’t like MySpace kill her spirit.
