LSU Music Faculty, Dr. Brennan, Enters Paul MacCartney's Contest. Help him win!!

Dr. Brennan has entered a contest through Paul McCartney's channel on You Tube. Help him win! 

Hello All,

I hope this note finds you in great spirits as we all close out the weekend. I am writing because

I need your help!


Yesterday, on a whim, I decided to enter a contest through Paul McCartney's channel

on You Tube. The contest was to do a cover of his hit song "Maybe I'm Amazed." In

short, the entry with the most "likes" on You Tube will win.


This is where I need your help. If you'd be so kind to watch my video and (if you're

so moved) to give it a "like" vote, I would be very grateful. Furthermore, if you're

willing to re-post the video or pass it onto friends and colleagues, I promise to

include you all in the fun if I win. ;-) 


Here is the link for the video:

Thanks so much!

Best,

David Brennan
