Over the past several weeks we have received some tremendous songs from amazing artists for our new Love Bites Theme Competition.

This evening I am going to spin the wax as they used to say (does anybody remember LPs?), and share with you both the songs that have been aired as well as give an advanced preview on upcoming music.
