Hi Steve!  Well, I've lost count, but two of my friends own mp3s by her, and one of them was singing Dark Waltz for her music summative this Friday. (Which introduced her whole music class to the song). So who knows how many Hayley fans there are in my school by now? And, of course, my parents are huge fans as well... Oksy |

Hello everyone I don't have a clue, but like many others, I bring Hayley into a conversation whenever I get the opportunity! This morning, I took a selection of prints from Shepherds Bush to show Elizabeth after church. To begin with it was only the two of us, but Elizabeth kept rounding people up, until there were 7 or 8 gathered round. Several didn't know who she was before. They certainly do now!!  Best wishes Grant |

When a custumor came into the flowershop, he had to wait a few minutes, because i was helping another one.
It was not a problem he said to me.
"Treasure" japanese edition was playing in the shop.
When i was ready to help him, he asked me about the music i played in the shop.Picking up the flowers, for making a bouquet, i was telling about Hayley,her concerts so far, and the last one in Belgium i went to!!! The man asked me to write her name on a piece of paper, he was very enthusiastic about what he heard!!! Later he came back and guess what.............!!!!
He bought her cd at Mediamarkt!!, the only shop, where Hayley cd's are available!!! (I gave him the name of the Mediamarkt)
The only thing i could say at that moment was, Thank you!!
So i'm happy there is another one who likes her music!!!!
Tomorrow i will play Odyssey in the shop!!!!
Greetz JOYCE.

I wish that all the Parisian flower sellers were like you, Joyce...this is brillant! Hehe, well-done. Just curious - what album did your customer buy?

Oh I see - it's also the only album available in France. It was released in May 06 when Hayley came to Paris with Il Divo. Grant, it was a very good idea to bring your printed pictures. Hopefully your friends will soon be interested enough to purchase Hayley's albums  Stephany |

Bravo from me too Joyce.
We had lunch recently in a little (much visited) town South of here and had been listening to Woburn Abbey Concert in the car.
Since we were (at first) the only customers I asked the restaurant manageress if she'd be happy to play my disc on her restaurant's player.
She said yes, be glad to, as she hadn't heard of Hayley.
Anyhow I told her if she liked it she'd be welcome to it afterwards.
Well, we had the privilege of Hayley's & Vittorio's voices over lunch and we talked a bit about HW with the manageress but she declined my offer but nicely.
However she was introduced to her name & voice.
She also told us she was a longtime Elvis fan & was preparing to visit Gracelands with her family

So, who and how many people have you exposed to Hayley for the first time? I've lost count... but its got to be over 30. Its also on my facebook as my favourite musical artist so all my facebook friends get to see her plastered on my page  In fact i had a funny thing happen the other day. I was visiting with a friend and the two of us were riding in his car and he puts on this music and this beautiful voice comes on, singing a classical song but it wasn't a song that I was familiar with. It kind of sounded like Hayley but i couldn't be sure... so I said wow... this girls voice is as beautiful as Hayleys. And my friend says well that is because it IS Hayley singing. I just laughed... because now friends play Hayley on their own without me having anything to do with it. It turns out the song she was singing was one that is only on the US album (I only have the UK versions)... cool eah? |

Was it the US version of Treasure, Odyssey or Pure? The only songs on the UK version of Treasure which are not on the US version are The Last Rose of Summer, Scarborough Fair and The Water is Wide, none of which are classical. So, I guess you heard something from one of the earlier albums. Roger |
