I just finished reading the FAMOUS Cape Breton Post and there was an article on Gordie Sampson and his recent sucess with his song "Jesus, take the wheel" that Carrie Underwood performs. Then I looked on his website and saw all the songs he wrote (ones I never knew he wrote at all!! For example "Paris" by Faith Hill and "Followed Her Around" by Jimmy Rankin! Great songs!) and was amazed! He is a really great writer! He has a rare talent and once he gets noticed, he is going to be OFF THE CHARTS! I'm proud of the guy. I don't actually know him, but because of the AMAZING pride of our INCREDIBLE island, everyone from CB feels connected, and it is quite possible that we're all related! Tenth cousins to us is a close relation! :) I love it! There is something extra special about this place! Well, that's all I have to say... I love Cape Breton and Gordie Sampson is incredibley talented and everyone should check him out. He is the next big star... and not because he barely wears any clothes and has long lucious flowing blond hair and has one lucky break with a crappy pop song about Hitting Babies one more time (??), but because he ACTUALLY has great talent! I'm excited to see where he goes and if he can put ol' CB on the map. If not, we can just stay here and bask in our great celtic pride...
