I'm not sure if hayley has affected or changed my life in a dramatic way...but by knowing her music I have found a voice to calm my restless mind...I was at one point recently in my life on the verge of wanting to end my life...I would cut myself for the thrill of the pain for it filled a void that I had in me...filled it with the pain which was a sign to me that I was still alive...though in my mind I were dead and wishing it daily...hayleys music when I would and still do listen to it...replaces that emptiness with hope...rids my want for that moment of pain...and in turn fills me with a warmth that I can only describe as if an angel held me in her arms...perhaps that is a drastic change...and perhaps...hayley did change my life...

Oh, at the end of my post, I meant I was a big fan of Hayley's not Charlotte's. Not sure if that was clear. I did used to like Charlotte. That's why I first went to Charlotte's website, but I wasn't too crazy about her new pop album. So then I went on to Hayley's website, and was much happier with what I found there. I don't have a picture in my avatar because I don't really have my picture taken that much, and I don't like to stare at myself all the time. I don't really consider myself that good-looking, anyway. Plus, I look like I'm 12, when I'm really 26. Hint: the Aussie girl with glasses posted above somewhere. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifHello Libby. I understood what you where saying, quite clear you where, I still haven't checked out Charlotte though and will so even just out of curiosity. Ha HA are you sure that isn't an excuse saying you look as though your only about 12, don't you realize that people spend billions of dollars every year trying to get what you have naturally, I tend to look slightly older then my age I am often told, doesn't bother me though but i think it's because I do weights and spend quite a bit of time at the gym. I'm not a fitness fanatic I just enjoy it and it helps me relax. OK I'm guessing who the ozzie girl might be and would love to see a photo BUT discretion being the better part of valor I think I should change the subject before anyone gets embarrassed, however is there A QUICK way to check out if members have put photo's of them selves on here. Just asking. regards Rob.

2 things. First, I had sort of fallen out of love with music for a while. There were several grad schools I was looking into the continue my music education however because there were literally no jobs in any of the cities that housed the schools I was interested in, grad school fell through. That was pretty depressing for me, to the point that I had stopped playing completely and stopped attending concerts. I even stopped listening to my ipod for a while. Secondly, for so years I had convinced myself that I didn't need to be with someone, that relationships were not important to me and that I could live without them. Even when I was in a relationship I still as if I didn't really need this and that I shouldn't be here. This is especially true for musicians as most of the time music and relationships just don't work out. When Hayley first "came into my life" a lot of that started to change. She pulled me back into the musical world and really opened my ears. I started hearing things differently than I had in the past. There was a new found excitement, especially when it came to Hayley's singing. It's a slow process but I'm making my way back into music. Grad school is no longer an option for me but simply playing for the enjoyment of it is all that matters now. As to the relationships, Martin you hit the nail on the head about Hayley's music being exclusively love songs. There is so much love not just within Hayley's music but within Hayley herself. I know several people say not to meet your idols because they'll never live up to what you thought they would be like. And I don't want to say this about Hayley since I've yet to meet her but I can't help but feel that if I ever one day had the chance to meet her that the love we speak of would be ever so apparent. Her music and who she is as a person as changed my views on relationships and has begun to break down the fortified wall I had built up for years.
On another note, I really hope that Hayley one day will read this thread. I think it's important that she knows what she has done for so many of us and how important she and her music are to all of us.

It seems she may very well have saved your life, as well as changed it. I can see how it would help. Not that I've ever gone through what you have, but anytime I listen to her music when I feel bad about something, I always feel better afterwards. On the Wings of Time in particular sounds like something straight out of Heaven. There's such a peace and joy to the melody, and Hayley's voice... bliss. I'm sure Hayley would be quite moved by your story.
