    Hello Coco Un petit passage par chez toi où je me permets de laisser ce message pour te faire savoir que je fréquente un peu moins Myspace depuis quelques temps. Je me demande si toi aussi tu le fréquentes .... Afin de pouvoir échanger ensemble, j'invite mes amis de myspace à venir me rejoindre sur Facebook (mais il me semble que nous y sommes déjà amies) :
    www.facebook.com/solveig.music
    sinon on peut aussi me retrouver sur Noomiz. Ce nouveau site propose à des artistes émergents de pouvoir être contactés par des professionnels. Personnellement, j'ai eu l'honneur d'entrer dans le "Top 100" (je suis 79ème ce mois ci) :
    www.noomiz.com/leschansonsdesolveig

    Alors à très bientôt ! ... Bonne continuation et au plaisir mon amie. God bless - Musicalement, :-)

    Bonsoir! Superbe voix, très belle musique; j'ai eu un coup de cœur sur "Iwiye", c'est tellement beau ces voix ensemble! Bon, je dois reconnaître que je ne comprends pas les paroles... Vous avez peut-être un site internet avec les traductions disponibles?
    Bonne continuation!
