Yes, i felt them after tuesday the 11th more powerfully so,
one song "never drown" talking about standing strong
or something like that,,,, what a powerful song
and to me its a song for now for all these people
fighting to save lifes in New York city and Washington D.C
i would feel this way if the song and the songs and music and words were
by dylan or fiveforfighing its not just because a Meeks
wrote them and sang them and composed them,,,its just because they are so
very powerful, I felt that and from what i hear from you
and jahneene and chris and other people they are touching
many,,, i think these songs on Red have more of a power
in that way,,,, more so than cd one or cd two
maybe its the "words"-- have come at a right time{ now }
but for whatever reason "fate" or whatever reason,
we need to get cd red to new york city and to washtoning D.C
i feel it would help many there, there is a great power in
music to heal, to build hope, a power and a strong feeling of
we can win ,we can go on, we can overcome all these things
i just hope somehow/ someway
Never Drown and "dancin with the wind" all of cd red makes it into
the hands of the men and women fighting the good fight
in NY city and Washington DC and all over the USA
i think it could help like Jahneene said she cried and cried
they moved her so deeply that is a kind of power all of
its own, that is awesome by design, i never really felt the composer
side of Travis and Days Of The New until "RED" but now I
have felt it completely it has touched me. more so with each
new listen i pull something from it. and that something is
very good. and that is what a creator should do
be it a songwriter, composer, poet, writer, artist
playwright, it has to go down deep to the bone marrow

If i had the money i would send the cd red to these places
myself but i am only one person and i can't ,,if i could
i would have radio stations in nyc play "never drown"
and dancin with the wind i feel never drown is the best one
tho something about the music and words that reach out
and take ahold of you ,,,,
and play it, them as tribute song[s] to the people down beneath
those fallin world trade center buildings ,
working and fighting their fingers to the bloody flesh,
i know it should be done this came to me as i listened
one day like a feeling or thought; it came right out of the blue.
