Canteener Playlist: LUV W
What was the first song you remember hearing on the radio?
1.A song called "Sentimental Journey" by Doris Day that I would sing along with and made my Mom cry as she was taking my Dad back to the train station when he was going into the Army.
What was the first album/cassette/CD did you purchase?
2. The first album I bought was when I was a really little girl of Bozo the Clown--no music, but I loved the story. How would you describe your musical preferences?
3. Rock and easy listening, some country--not "hard" country, some alternative--or whatever artists like Enya are listed under. ------------------------------------------- LUV W is not only a proud supporter of our military, but also the proud mother of one of our brave heroes serving. As a matter of fact, he returned home last week. In addition to being a fantastic mother and wife, she also proudly entertains our Troops on a daily basis. She happens to make some very beautiful tables that she's been sharing with all of us. Thank you for your time, talents, and energy LUV W. We greatly appreciate it!!

What does the Canteen Music Dedication mean to you?
5. The Canteen Dedication is a chance for me to give a little entertainment to our troops who are so far away and who might get a chance to stop by the Canteen for a little R&R. It's a chance for me to do something for them because they do so much for me! |

Canteener Playlist: EsmeraldaA
1.-The first song I remember (outside children programming?) is something from Bobby Darin(my older sisters loved the guy), I think it was *Splish Splash*.
2.-My first album was The Beatles *Please Please Me* It was a birthday present though.
3.-My preferences are very eclectic, From Classical to Hip Hop only skipping (ducking for rotten food here) Country music. [Drumbo is trying to change that, LOL] --------------------------------- Many of our Troops have had the opportunity to see our newest Canteen family member. Esmeralda is a beautiful woman that thoroughly enjoys reading, chatting with her friends online and elsewhere, her beautiful Alexis, and music. She brings to the Canteen energy, fun, and enthusiasm. We hope you all enjoy her as much as we do. She's a precious addition and we're keeping her. So? Back off! Hehe! Here are her selections with her comments on the far right!!
