Download, download, download....that's the game! Let's face it,the majority of the music listening public have no clue about any other music except the Top 40!!!!
Please listen to this kid from Australia, especially the second song that he wrote! It gives me hope for the future of good music! He is so happy and so natural!!!

A great promising talent. Just hope they allow him to mature, both in his writing and his singing/performing instead of turning him into a production line pop star. Kind of reminded me of what Paul Simon must have been like as a kid.
